We study the problem of best approximations of a vector $\alpha\in{\mathbb R}^n$ by rational vectors of a lattice $\Lambda\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ whose common denominator is bounded. To this end we introduce successive minima for a periodic…

Consider a smooth projective curve $\overline{C}$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, equipped with a simply branched morphism $\overline{C} \to \mathbb{P}^1$ of degree $d \leq 5$. Assume char$\, \mathbb{F}_q > 2$ if $d \leq 4$, and char$\,…

We characterize stable curves $X$ whose compactified degree-$d$ Jacobian is of N\'eron type. This means the following: for any one-parameter regular smoothing of $X$, the special fiber of the N\'eron model of the Jacobian of the generic…

We define the nef complexity of a projective variety $X$. This invariant compares $\dim X+\rho(X)$ with the sum of the coefficients of nef partitions of $-K_X$. We prove that the nef complexity is non-negative and it is zero precisely for…

The main result of this paper is to prove some type of Real Jacobian Conjecture. It is proved by the Minimax Principle and asserts if the eigenvalues of $F'(x)$ are bounded from zero and all the eigenvalues of $F'(x)+F'(x)^T$ are strictly…

In this paper, we give a numerical characterization of nef arithmetic R-Cartier divisors of C^0-type on an arithmetic surface. Namely an arithmetic R-Cartier divisor D of C^0-type is nef if and only if D is pseudo-effective and deg(D^2) =…

We study the nef cones and fundamental domains of Hilbert schemes of points on the Cayley K3 surface $S$ and its generalizations $S_a$. For the Hilbert square $S^{[2]}$, we explicitly compute the nef cone and describe a fundamental domain…

We describe the positive cone and the pseudo-effective cone of a non-K\"ahlerian surface. We use these results for two types of applications: - Describe the set $\sigma(X)$ of possible total Ricci scalars associated with Gauduchon metrics…

The cone of lower semicontinuous traces is studied with a view to its use as an invariant. Its properties include compactness, Hausdorffness, and continuity with respect to inductive limits. A suitable notion of dual cone is given. The cone…

This paper deals with the problem of computing a generating set for the Cox ring $R(X)$ of a smooth projective rational surface $X$ with nef anticanonical class. In case $R(X)$ is finitely generated, we show that the degrees of its…

In this paper we considerably extend the class of known $\alpha$-minimizing hypercones using sub-calibration methods. Indeed, the improvement of previous results follows from a careful analysis of special cubic and quartic polynomials.

Let $f$ be a meromorphic function with simply connected domain $G\subset\mathbb{C}$, and let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{C}$ be a smooth Jordan curve. We call a component of $f^{-1}(\Gamma)$ in $G$ a $\Gamma$-$pseudo$-$lemniscate$ of $f$. In this…

The notion of the Jacob's ladders, reversely iterated integrals and the $\zeta$-factorization is used in this paper in order to obtain new results in study of the function $\arg\zf$. Namely, we obtain new formulae for non-local and…

G3-style sequent calculi for the logics in the cube of non-normal modal logics and for their deontic extensions are studied. For each calculus we prove that weakening and contraction are height-preserving admissible, and we give a syntactic…

In a pseudo-Euclidean space with scalar product $S(\cdot, \cdot)$, we show that the singularities of projections on $S$-monotone sets and of the associated Fitzpatrick functions are covered by countable $c-c$ surfaces having positive normal…

In this paper and in its sequel [BKLV], we investigate the cone ${\rm Pseff}_n(C_d)$ of pseudoeffective $n$-cycles in the symmetric product $C_d$ of a smooth curve $C$. In the present paper, we study the convex-geometric properties of the…

We study the positivity properties of the projectivization of a parabolic bundle over a smooth complex projective curve. The generators of its N\'eron--Severi group are computed, and the positive cone is determined. In particular, we…

We study cones of pseudoeffective cycles on the blow up of $({\mathbb P}^1)^n$ at points in very general position, proving some results concerning their structure. In particular we show that in some cases they turn out to be generated by…

A differentiable function is pseudoconvex if and only if its restrictions over straight lines are pseudoconvex. A differentiable function depending on one variable, defined on some closed interval $[a,b]$ is pseudoconvex if and only if…

The NJL model is formulated on the light cone. Using the 1/N expansion to solve the fermionic constraint, an effective 4-fermi lagrangian is derived. Pionic properties are investigated using this lagrangian, and the formal equivalence to…
