We prove the so-called Severi inequality, stating that the invariants of a minimal smooth complex projective surface of maximal Albanese dimension satisfy: K^2_S >= 4\chi(S).

Mendes Lopes and Pardini showed that minimal general type surfaces of Albanese dimension one have slopes $K^2/\chi$ dense in the interval $[2,8]$. This result was completed to cover the admissible interval $[2,9]$ by Roulleau and Urzua, who…

We prove Bloch's formula for the Chow group of 0-cycles with modulus on smooth projective varieties over finite fields. The proof relies on two new results in global ramification theory.

We completely characterize isoperimetric regions in R^n with density e^h, where h is convex, smooth, and radially symmetric. In particular, balls around the origin constitute isoperimetric regions of any given volume, proving the Log-Convex…

We prove effective versions of algebraic and analytic Lang's conjectures for product-quotient surfaces of general type with $P_g=0$ and $c_1^2=c_2$.

A cusp singularity is an elliptic surface singularity whose minimal resolution is a cycle of smooth rational curves meeting transversely. Cusp singularities come in naturally dual pairs. In 1981, Looijenga proved that whenever a cusp…

The sign coherence phenomenon is an important feature of c-vectors in cluster algebras with principal coefficients. In this note, we consider a more general version of c-vectors defined for arbitrary cluster algebras of geometric type and…

We prove, assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, the Andre-Oort conjecture for Hilbert modular surfaces. More precisely, let K be a real quadratic field and let S be the coarse moduli space of complex abelian surfaces with…

We prove a conjecture of Toponogov on complete convex planes, namely that such planes must contain an umbilic point, albeit at infinity. Our proof is indirect. It uses Fredholm regularity of an associated Riemann-Hilbert boundary value…

In this paper, we are motivated by the conjectures proposed by C.~Bender \textit{et al.}, \cite{C} in 2024. We have settled the first two conjectures negatively by providing a counter example in \cite{KTJ}, whereas in this paper, we prove…

We study the injectivity radius of complete Riemannian surfaces (S,g) with curvature |K(g)| bounded by 1. We show that if S is orientable with nonabelian fundamental group, then there is a point p in S with injectivity radius at least…

We give a rigorous mathematical proof for the validity of the toric sheaf cohomology algorithm conjectured in the recent paper by R. Blumenhagen, B. Jurke, T. Rahn, and H. Roschy (arXiv:1003.5217). We actually prove not only the original…

We prove that any convex-like structure in the sense of Nate Brown is affinely and isometrically isomorphic to a closed convex subset of a Banach space. This answers an open question of Brown. As an intermediate step, we identify Brown's…

O. Brunat and J. Gramain recently proved that any two blocks of double covers of symmetric groups are Brou\'{e} perfectly isometric provided they have the same weight and sign. They also proved a corresponding statement for double covers of…

A classical discovery known as Fenchel's conjecture and proved in the 1950s, shows that every co-compact Fuchsian group $F$ has a normal subgroup of finite index isomorphic to the fundamental group of a compact unbordered orientable…

Cohomology of Specht modules for the symmetric group can be equated in low degrees with corresponding cohomology for the Borel subgroup B of the general linear group GL_d(k), but this has never been exploited to prove new symmetric group…

Generic polyhedra are interesting mathematical objects to study in their own right. In this paper, we initialize a systematic study of two-dimensional generic polyhedra with an eye towards applications to low-dimensional topology,…

We formulate a conjecture characterizing smooth projective varieties in positive characteristic whose Frobenius morphism can be lifted modulo $p^2$ - we expect that such varieties, after a finite \'etale cover, admit a toric fibration over…

For an arithmetical scheme X, K. Kato introduced a certain complex of Gersten-Bloch-Ogus type whose component in degree a involves Galois cohomology groups of the residue fields of all the points of X of dimension a. He stated a conjecture…

This paper improves some results of the author's previous work. We will investigate the case of non-smooth points on an automorphic components and prove Breuil-Schenider conjecture. As a consequence we will see that in case when all the…
