We prove that every locally conformally flat metric on a closed, oriented hyperbolic 4-manifold with scalar curvature bounded below by -12 satisfies Schoen's conjecture. We also classify all closed Riemannian 4-manifolds of positive scalar…

We construct functions $f \colon [0,1] \to [0,1]$ whose graph as a subset of $\mathbb{R}^2$ has Hausdorff dimension greater than any given value $\alpha \in (1,2)$ but conformal dimension $1$. These functions have the property that a…

In this paper, we seek an appropriate definition for a Shimura curve of Hodge type in positive characteristics, i.e. a characterization of curves in positive characteristics which are reduction of Shimura curve over the complex field.…

We study strong linearisations and the uniqueness of preduals of locally convex Hausdorff spaces of scalar-valued functions. Strong linearisations are special preduals. A locally convex Hausdorff space $\mathcal{F}(\Omega)$ of scalar-valued…

Consider a homeomorphism h of the closed annulus S^1*[0,1], isotopic to the identity, such that the rotation set of h is reduced to a single irrational number alpha (we say that h is an irrational pseudo-rotation). For every positive…

We show that for any connected smooth manifold $M$ of dimension different from $3$ the restriction of the compact-open topology to the diffeomorphism group of $M$ is minimal, i.e. the group does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group…

Suppose that $F$ is a smooth and connected complex surface (not necessarily compact) containing a smooth rational curve with positive self-intersection. We prove that if there exists a non-constant meromorphic function on $F$, then the…

In this paper, we first study the lifting problem of Hasse-Schmidt derivations and then apply the results to the theory of locally trivial deformations of algebraic schemes in positive characteristic. As an application, we construct an…

As a means to better understanding manifolds with positive curvature, there has been much recent interest in the study of non-negatively curved manifolds which contain points at which all 2-planes have positive curvature. We show that there…

We study the group of automorphisms of the affine plane preserving some given curve, over any field. The group is proven to be algebraic, except in the case where the curve is a bunch of parallel lines. Moreover, a classification of the…

Sheffield showed that conformally welding a $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface to itself gives a Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) curve with parameter $\kappa = \gamma^2$ as the interface, and Duplantier-Miller-Sheffield proved…

In this paper, we focus on the geometry of compact conformally flat manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with positive scalar curvature. Schoen-Yau proved that its universal cover $(\widetilde{M^n},\tilde{g})$ is conformally embedded in $\mathbb{S}^n$ such…

An $n$-dimensional ($n\geq 2$) simply connected, compact without boundary Finsler space of positive constant sectional curvature is conformally homeomorphic to an n-sphere in the Euclidean space $\R^{n+1}$.

We study one dimensional sets (Hausdorff dimension) lying in a Hilbert space. The aim is to classify subsets of Hilbert spaces that are contained in a connected set of finite Hausdorff length. We do so by extending and improving results of…

A Mumford group is a discontinuous subgroup $\Gamma$ of PGL(2,K), where K denotes a non archimedean valued field, such that the quotient by $\Gamma$ is a curve of genus 0. As abstract group $\Gamma$ is an amalgam of a finite tree of finite…

We start with a curve over an algebraically closed ground field of positive characteristic $p>0$. By using specialization techniques, under suitable natural coprimality conditions, we prove a cohomological Simpson Correspondence between the…

We prove that for any nonlinear $f \in C^{1,\alpha}([0,1])$, the union of lines covering its graph has a Hausdorff dimension of at least $1+\alpha$, and this dimension bound is sharp. We then apply these geometric results to mathematical…

By appropriate scaling of coupling constants a one-parameter family of ensembles of two-dimensional geometries is obtained, which interpolates between the ensembles of (generalized) causal dynamical triangulations and ordinary dynamical…

Let S be a compact connected surface and let f be an element of the group Homeo\_0(S) of homeomorphisms of S isotopic to the identity. Denote by \tilde{f} a lift of f to the universal cover of S. Fix a fundamental domain D of this universal…

We introduce the notion of a stratified Oka manifold and prove that such a manifold $X$ is strongly dominable in the sense that for every $x\in X$, there is a holomorphic map $f:\C^n\to X$, $n=\dim X$, such that $f(0)=x$ and $f$ is a local…
