In this work we give a method for constructing a one-parameter family of complete CMC-1 (i.e. constant mean curvature 1) surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space that correspond to a given complete minimal surface with finite total curvature in…
In any characteristic different from 2 and 5, Kond\=o gave an example of a K3 surface with a purely non-symplectic automorphism of order 50. The surface was explicitly given as a double plane branched along a smooth sextic curve. In this…
We explicitly construct a dynamically incoherent partially hyperbolic endomorphisms of $\mathbb{T}^2$ in the homotopy class of any linear expanding map with integer eigenvalues. These examples exhibit branching of centre curves along…
A triangulation of a surface is \emph{irreducible} if there is no edge whose contraction produces another triangulation of the surface. We prove that every irreducible triangulation of a surface with Euler genus $g\geq1$ has at most $13g-4$…
Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g \geq 2$ over $\mathbb C$, and let $E^0$ be a vector bundle on $C$. We investigate the birational geometry of the Quot scheme ${\rm Quot}_C(E^0, k, n)$, which parametrizes quotients of $E^0$…
We study the relationship between singularities of finite-dimensional integrable systems and singularities of the corresponding spectral curves. For the large class of integrable systems on matrix polynomials, which is a general framework…
An abelian variety $A/K$ is heavenly at $\ell$ if the extension $K(A[\ell^\infty])/K(\mu_{\ell^{\infty}}\!)$ is both pro-$\ell$ and unramified away from $\ell$. It is known that for a fixed quadratic field $K$, the number of $K$-isomorphism…
In this paper we classify all singular irreducible symplectic surfaces, i.e., compact, connected complex surfaces with canonical singularities that have a holomorphic symplectic form $\sigma$ on the smooth locus, and for which every finite…
Collino proved that the fundamental group of a certain Zariski open set of the symmetric square of a hyperelliptic curve is isomorphic to the integral Heisenberg group. We compute the mixed Hodge structure on this fundamental group, and…
We consider Haldane-like $2d$ topological insulators on the cylinder, in the presence of weak quasi-periodic disorder. We prove that, at large distances, the boundary correlations agree with the correlations of a renormalized,…
We prove a number of results to the general effect that, under obviously necessary numerical and determinant constraints, "most" morphisms between fixed bundles on a complex elliptic curve produce (co)kernels which can either be specified…
We describe smooth rational projective algebraic surfaces over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2 which contain $n \ge \b_2-2$ disjoint smooth rational curves with self-intersection -2, where $\b_2$ is the…
We prove that a resolution of singularities of any finite covering of the projective plane branched along a Hurwitz curve $\bar H$ and, maybe, along a line "at infinity" can be embedded as a symplectic submanifold into some projective…
We consider the Bernoulli bond percolation process (with parameter $p$) on infinite graphs and we give a general criterion for bounded degree graphs to exhibit a non-trivial percolation threshold based either on a single isoperimetric…
We prove that every Riemann surface not isomorphic to the Riemann sphere admits an infinitesimal deformation of the complex structure. The proof is based in an investigation of the length of geodesics for the Kobayashi/Poincare metric.
Let K be a finite extension of Q_p and X a smooth projective variety over K. We define the notion of totally degenerate reduction of such an X and the associated Chow complexes of the special fibre of a suitable regular proper model of X…
In this paper we study extension problems for torsors in positive characteristic. Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$ and $U/F$ be a unipotent algebraic group. As our first main result, we prove that every $U$-torsor defined over the…
We prove that the formal $\hbar$-power series solution of the deformed Painlev\'{e} I equation is resurgent, which means it is generically Borel summable and its Borel transform admits endless analytic continuation. In particular, we find…
We prove that for every smooth projective integral curve $X$ of genus at least $2$ over $\mathbb C$, there exists $x \in X(\mathbb C)$ such that no connected finite \'etale cover of $X-\{x\}$ admits a nonconstant morphism to $\mathbb G_m$.…
In this note we prove that the Beilinson conjecture holds for certain examples of K3 surfaces over $\bar {\mathbb{Q}}$ equipped with an involution, when the quotient of the surface by the involution is the projective plane branched along a…
