We study how different types of blow-ups can occur in systems of hyperbolic evolution equations of the type found in general relativity. In particular, we discuss two independent criteria that can be used to determine when such blow-ups can…

We construct algebraic families of smooth affine $\mathbb{A}^1$-contractible varieties of every dimension $n\geq 4$ over fields of characteristic zero which are non-isomorphic to affine spaces and potential counterexamples to the Zariski…

We propose a conjecture regarding the integrally closedness of lattice polytopes with large lattice lengths. We demonstrate that a lattice simplex in dimension 3 (resp. 4) with lattice length of at least 2 (resp. 3 and no edge has lattice…

In this paper, we study derived categories of certain toric varieties with Picard number three that are blowing-up another toric varieties along their torus invariant loci of codimension at most three. We construct strong full exceptional…

In this thesis we examine a set of foundational questions concerning closed forms in superspace. By reformulating a number of definitions through the use of a new ring of (anti-)commuting variables and the concept of an exact Bianchi form,…

This is the first paper in a two-part direct-threshold series on large-data global regularity for the three-dimensional Navier--Stokes equations. We prove a direct first-threshold continuation theorem for the axisymmetric class with swirl.…

In this paper we present new proofs using real spectra of the finiteness theorem on Nash trivial simultaneous resolution and the finiteness theorem on Blow-Nash triviality for isolated real algebraic singularities. That is, we prove that a…

In previous work, a class of noninvertible topological dynamical systems $f: X \to X$ was introduced and studied; we called these {\em topologically coarse expanding conformal} systems. To such a system is naturally associated a preferred…

This article constructs a smooth weak Fano threefold of Picard number two with small anti-canonical morphism that arises as a blowup of a smooth curve of genus 5 and degree 8 in $\mathbb{P}^3$. While the existence of this weak Fano was…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $n$ over the algebraic closure of a finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$. Assuming the standard conjecture $D$, we prove a weaker form of the Dynamical Degree Comparison conjecture; equivalence of…

Let $k$ be \emph{any} algebraically closed field in any characteristic, let $R$ be any regular local ring such that $R$ contains $k$ as a subring, the residue field of $R$ is isomorphic to $k$ as $k$-algebras and $\dim R\geq 1$, let $P$ be…

It is shown that, for any reduced algebraic variety in characteristic zero, one can resolve all but simple normal crossings (snc) singularities by a finite sequence of blowings-up with smooth centres which, at every step, avoids points…

Fix a strictly positive measure $W$ on the $d$-dimensional torus $\bb T^d$. For an integer $N\ge 1$, denote by $W^N_x$, $x=(x_1, ..., x_d)$, $0\le x_i <N$, the $W$-measure of the cube $[x/N, (x+\mb 1)/N)$, where $\mb 1$ is the vector with…

A toroidal affine Nash group is the affine Nash group analogue of an anti-affine algebraic group. In this note, we prove analogues of Rosenlicht's structure and decomposition theorems: (1) Every affine Nash group $G$ has a smallest normal…

Let $H$ be a finite-dimensional weak Hopf algebra over a field $k$ and $A/B$ be a right faithfully flat weak $H$-Galois extension. We prove that if the finitistic dimension of $B$ is finite, then it is less than or equal to that of $A$.…

In this paper we perform a fine blow-up analysis for a fourth order elliptic equation involving critical Sobolev exponent, related to the prescription of some conformal invariant on the standard sphere. We derive from this analysis some a…

Let $X$ be a two-sided subshift on a finite alphabet endowed with a mixing probability measure which is positive on all cylinders in $X$. We show that there exist arbitrarily small finite overlapping union of shifted cylinders which…

We prove that the stable endomorphism rings of rigid objects in a suitable Frobenius category have only finitely many basic algebras in their derived equivalence class and that these are precisely the stable endomorphism rings of objects…

We consider equivariant wave maps from $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ to $\mathbb{S}^d$ in supercritical dimensions $3\leq d\leq 6$. Using mixed numerical and analytic methods, we show that the threshold of blowup is given by the codimension-one stable…
