The well-known Nakai Conjecture concerns a very natural question: For an algebra of finite type over a characteristic zero field, if the ring of its differential operators is generated by the first order derivations, is the algebra regular?…
In this article we study the cohomological and homological (due to Jannsen) Hodge conjecture for singular varieties. The motivation for studying singular varieties comes from the fact that any smooth projective variety X is birational to a…
Mather and Yau showed that an isolated complex hypersurface singularity is completely determined by its moduli algebra. It is shown, for the simple elliptic singularities, how to construct continuous invariants from the moduli algebras and,…
Given a complex affine hypersurface with isolated singularity determined by a homogeneous polynomial, we identify the noncommutative Hodge structure on the periodic cyclic homology of its singularity category with the classical Hodge…
Recent discoveries make it possible to compute the K-theory of certain rings from their cyclic homology and certain versions of their cdh-cohomology. We extend the work of G. Corti\~nas et al. who calculated the K-theory of, in addition to…
This paper develops a theory of isolated hypersurface singularities in mixed characteristic $(0,p)$, focusing on quotient rings over a Discrete Valuation Ring (DVR). We introduce and study analogues of the classical Tjurina and Milnor…
The author has been interested in regions surrounded by cylinders of real algebraic hypersurfaces and their shapes and polynomials associated to them. Here, we formulate and investigate natural decompositions into such cylinders of real…
In their work on differential operators in positive characteristic, Smith and Van den Bergh define and study the derived functors of differential operators; they arise naturally as obstructions to differential operators reducing to positive…
We show that very general hypersurfaces in odd-dimensional simplicial projective toric varieties verifying a certain combinatorial property satisfy the Hodge conjecture (these include projective spaces). This gives a connection between the…
There exists a well established differential topological theory of singularities of ordinary differential equations. It has mainly studied scalar equations of low order. We propose an extension of the key concepts to arbitrary systems of…
By the fundamental work of Griffiths one knows that, under suitable assumption, homological and algebraic equivalence do not coincide for a general hypersurface section of a smooth projective variety $Y$. In the present paper we prove the…
Let $M$ be a real hypersurface in complex projective space. The almost contact metric structure on $M$ allows us to consider, for any nonnull real number $k$, the corresponding $k$-th generalized Tanaka-Webster connection on $M$ and,…
We use classical invariant theory to construct invariants of complex graded Gorenstein algebras of finite vector space dimension. As a consequence, we obtain a way of extracting certain numerical invariants of quasi-homogeneous isolated…
We introduce notions of a separated solution and of a simple symmetry that generates a differential operator on a smooth manifold. We prove that a differential operator on a two dimensional manifold has a separated solution if it has a…
For a projective algebraic variety $V$ with isolated singularities, endowed with a metric induced from an embedding, we consider the analysis of the natural partial differential operators on the regular part of $V$. We show that, in the…
In this paper we develop a new approach for studying differential operators of an isolated singularity graded hypersurface ring $R$ defining a surface in affine three-space over a field of characteristic zero. With this method, we construct…
This is an announcement of conjectures and results concerning the generating series of Euler characteristics of Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces with simple (Kleinian) singularities. For a quotient surface C^2/G with G a finite…
We consider links of complex isolated hypersurface singularities in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$ and study differentiable maps defined by restricting holomorphic functions to the links. We give an explicit example in which such a restriction gives a…
