We discuss the connection between the smooth and metric structure on quotient spaces, prove smoothness of isometries in special cases and discuss an application to a conjecture of Molino.
We classify smooth del Pezzo surfaces whose alpha-invariant of Tian is bigger than one.
We reconsider the renormalization of scalar mass and point out that the quantum correction to the physical observable, as opposed to the bare parameter, of a renormalizable operator, is technically insensitive to ultraviolet physics and…
Bilevel programming has recently received a great deal of attention due to its abundant applications in many areas. The optimal value function approach provides a useful reformulation of the bilevel problem, but its utility is often limited…
We study smooth maps that arise in derived algebraic geometry. Given a map $A \to B$ between non-positive commutative noetherian DG-rings which is of flat dimension $0$, we show that it is smooth in the sense of To\"{e}n-Vezzosi if and only…
Recent advances in boundary critical phenomena have led to the discovery of a new surface universality class in the three-dimensional $O(N)$ model. The newly found ``extraordinary-log" phase can be realized on a two-dimensional surface for…
In this paper, we will study the partial regularity theorem for stationary harmonic maps from a Riemannian manifold into a Lorentzian manifold. For a weakly stationary harmonic map $(u,v)$ from a smooth bounded open domain…
Given a smooth curve with weighted marked points, the Abel-Jacboi map produces a line bundle on the curve. This map fails to extend to the full boundary of the moduli space of stable pointed curves. Using logarithmic and tropical geometry,…
Consider the classical $(2+1)$-dimensional Solid-On-Solid model above a hard wall on an $L\times L$ box of $\bbZ^2$. The model describes a crystal surface by assigning a non-negative integer height $\eta_x$ to each site $x$ in the box and 0…
The evaluation stack for minimal logarithmic stable maps is constructed, parameterizing families of standard log points in the target log scheme. This construction provides the ingredients necessary to define appropriate evaluation maps for…
We show how to fix the renormalization scale for hard-scattering exclusive processes such as deeply virtual meson electroproduction by applying the BLM prescription to the imaginary part of the scattering amplitude and employing a fixed-t…
We extend the position-space renormalization procedure, where renormalization factors are calculated from Green's functions in position space, by introducing a technique to take the average of Green's functions over spheres. In addition to…
Let $S$ be an abelian surface over an algebraically closed field $k$ with characteristic different from $2$ and $3$, and $\mathcal{L}$ a symmetric ample line bundle defining a polarisation of type $(1,3)$. Then the linear system…

We introduce exact analytical solutions of the steady-state hydrodynamic equations of scale-free, self-gravitating gaseous disks with flat rotation curves. We express the velocity field in terms of a stream function and obtain a third-order…
We consider a sequence of blowup solutions of a two dimensional, second order elliptic equation with exponential nonlinearity and singular data. This equation has a rich background in physics and geometry. In a work of…
We construct $C^\infty$ solutions to the one-dimensional nonlinear wave equation $$ u_{tt} - u_{xx} - \tfrac{2(p+2)}{p^2} |u|^p u=0 \quad \text{with} \quad p>0 $$ that blow up on any prescribed uniformly space-like $C^\infty$ hypersurface.…
In this paper we consider coherent systems $(E,V)$ on an elliptic curve which are stable with respect to some value of a parameter $\alpha$. We show that the corresponding moduli spaces, if non-empty, are smooth and irreducible of the…
This paper is concerned with the regularity of solutions to linear and nonlinear evolution equations extending our findings in [22] to domains of polyhedral type. In particular, we study the smoothness in the specific scale…
We present a general procedure for applying the scale-setting prescription of Brodsky, Lepage and Mackenzie to higher orders in the strong coupling constant $\alphas$. In particular, we show how to apply this prescription when the leading…
