We introduce the theory of generalised ultracategories, these are relational extensions to ultracategories as defined by Lurie. An essential example of generalised ultracategories are topological spaces, and these play a fundamental role in…
Some cohomology elements, called $\nu$ classes, as a supergeneralization of universal Chern classes, are introduced for canonical super line bundles over $\nu$ projective spaces, a novel supergeometric generalization of projective spaces.…
We consider Blanchet, Habegger, Masbaum and Vogel's universal construction of topological theories in dimension two, using it to produce interesting theories that do not satisfy the usual two-dimensional TQFT axioms. Kronecker's…
Let $F/\QQ $ be a totally real number field of degree $n$. We explicitly evaluate a certain sum of rational functions over a infinite fan of $F$-rational polyhedral cones in terms of the norm map $\Norm \colon F\to \QQ $. This completes…
In this article, we explore the extremal contractions of several projective bundles over smooth Fano varieties of Picard rank $1$. We provide a whole class of examples of projective bundles with smooth blow-up structures, derived from the…
To every compact oriented surface that is composed entirely out of 2-dimensional 0- and 1-handles, we construct a dg category using structures arising in Khovanov homology. These dg categories form part of the 2-dimensional layer (a.k.a.…
The paper contains a general construction which produces new examples of non simply-connected smooth projective surfaces. We analyze the resulting surfaces and their fundamental groups. Many of these fundamental groups are expected to be…
Just as knots and links can be algebraically described as certain morphisms in the category of tangles in 3 dimensions, compact surfaces smoothly embedded in R^4 can be described as certain 2-morphisms in the 2-category of `2-tangles in 4…
Using the graphs of prisms and Tutte Fragments, we construct an infinite family of hamiltonian and non-hamiltonian graphs in which Tutte's counterexample to Tait's conjecture appears in a certain sense as a minimal element. We observe that…
This paper is devoted to the study of the gluing construction for perverse sheaves on $G/U$ introduced by Kazhdan and Laumon ($G$ is a semisimple gourp, $U$ is the unipotent radical of a Borel subgroup in $G$). Kazhdan and Laumon…
We formulated a mirror-free approach to the mirror conjecture, namely, quantum hyperplane section conjecture, and proved it in the case of nonnegative complete intersections in homogeneous manifolds. For the proof we followed the scheme of…
A classical result of Bondal-Orlov states that a standard flip in birational geometry gives rise to a fully faithful functor between derived categories of coherent sheaves. We complete their embedding into a semiorthogonal decomposition by…
We compute the Welschinger invariants of blowups of the projective plane at an arbitrary conjugation invariant configuration of points. Specifically, open analogues of the WDVV equation and Kontsevich-Manin axioms lead to a recursive…
We investigate the quantum spectrum and Gamma structure for projective bundles, blow-ups, and standard flips. After restricting the quantum multiplication to the exceptional curve direction, we obtain a decomposition of the quantum…
We establish new uniform height inequalities for rational points on higher-dimensional varieties, extending the classical Roth-Schmidt-Subspace paradigm to the Arakelov-theoretic setting. Our main result provides sharp bounds for heights…
Contrary to the expectation arising from the tanglegram Kuratowski theorem of \'E. Czabarka, L.A. Sz\'ekely and S. Wagner [SIAM J. Discrete Math. 31(3): 1732--1750, (2017)], we construct an infinite antichain of planar tanglegrams with…
We show that blowups of the projective plane at points lying on a smooth cubic curve do not contain phantoms, provided the points are chosen in very general position on this curve.
A famous theorem of D. Orlov describes the derived bounded category of coherent sheaves on projective hypersurfaces in terms of an algebraic construction called graded matrix factorizations. In this article, I implement a proposal of E.…
Let X be a scheme of finite type over a Noetherian base scheme S admitting a dualizing complex, and let U be an open subset whose complement has codimension at least 2. We extend the Deligne-Bezrukavnikov theory of perverse coherent sheaves…
We compute the quantum cohomology relative to a Lagrangian submanifold in some complete intersections. For quadric hypersurfaces, we also give a full computation of the genus zero open Gromov-Witten invariants.
