We introduce and study the toric fiber product of two ideals in polynomial rings that are homogeneous with respect to the same multigrading. Under the assumption that the set of degrees of the variables form a linearly independent set, we…

In this paper we study division algebras over the function fields of curves over $\Q_p$. The first and main tool is to view these fields as function fields over nonsingular $S$ which are projective of relative dimension 1 over the $p$ adic…

We construct infinitely many abelian surfaces A defined over the rational numbers such that, for a prime ell <= 7, the ell-torsion subgroup of A is not isomorphic as a Galois module to the ell-torsion subgroup of its dual. We do this by…

We look at sequences of positive integers that can be realized as degree sequences of iterates of rational dominant maps of smooth projective varieties over arbitrary fields. New constraints on the degree growth of endomorphisms of the…

Given a hypersurface in a complex projective space, we prove that the multidegrees of its toric polar map agree, up to sign, with the coefficients of the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a distinguished open set, namely the complement of…

We obtain tight bounds for the minimal number of generators of an ideal with bounded-degree generators in a polynomial ring $K[X_1,\dots,X_n],$ as well as a sharp quantification of the maximum possible size of a minimal generating set of…

For a prime $p$ congruent to three modulo four, we prove that there exists a smooth curve of genus five in characteristic $p$ that is supersingular. We produce this curve as an unramified double cover of a curve of genus three. We…

Let $A$ be an associative unital algebra, $B_k$ its successive quotients of lower central series and $N_k$ the successive quotients of ideals generated by lower central series. The geometric and algebraic aspects of $B_k$ and $N_k$ have…

We show how the notion of the transcendence degree of a zero-cycle on a smooth projective variety X is related to the structure of the motive M(X). This can be of particular interest in the context of Bloch's conjecture, especially for…

The dynamical system generated by the iterated calculation of the high order gaps between neighboring terms of a sequence of natural numbers is remarkable and only incidentally characterized at the boundary by the notable Proth-Glibreath…

We give a new and self-contained proof of the finite generation of adjoint rings with big boundaries. As a consequence, we show that the canonical ring of a smooth projective variety is finitely generated.

The generating function for the number of purely crossing partitions of {1,...,n} is found in terms of the generating function for Bell numbers. Further results about generating functions for asymptotic moments of certain random Vandermonde…

This paper is devoted to the explicit computation of generating series for the connection coefficients of two commutative subalgebras of the group algebra of the symmetric group, the class algebra and the double coset algebra. As shown by…

We define two classes of topological infinite degree covering maps modeled on two families of transcendental holomorphic maps. The first, which we call exponential maps of type $(p,q)$, are branched covers and is modeled on transcendental…

For any prime number p and any positive real number {\alpha}, we construct a finitely generated group {\Gamma} with p-gradient equal to {\alpha}. This construction is used to show that there exist uncountably many pairwise non-commensurable…

We introduce a very natural topology on the set of total orderings of monomials of any algebra having a countable basis over a field. This topological space and some notable subspaces are compact. This topological framework allows us to…

In this article we prove, in a simple way, that for any complete toric variety, and for any Cartier divisor, the ring of global sections of multiples of the line bundle associated to the divisor is finitely generated.

We give further evidence that genus-one fibers with multi-sections are mirror dual to fibers with Mordell-Weil torsion. In the physics of F-theory compactifications this implies a relation between models with a non-simply connected gauge…

Faber, Muller and Smith used complete sums of conic modules to construct non-commutative crepant resolutions (NCCR) of simplicial toric algebras. We link these conic modules to the Bondal-Thomsen collection of line bundles on smooth toric…

It is proved that the universal degree bound for separating polynomial invariants of a finite abelian group (in non-modular characteristic) is strictly smaller than the universal degree bound for generators of polynomial invariants, unless…
