The examples of solutions of the system of differential equations generated by the Hopf map $S^3\rightarrow S^2$ are constructed. Their properties are discussed.
The stabilisation height of a fibre surface in the 3-sphere is the minimal number of Hopf plumbing operations needed to attain a stable fibre surface from the initial surface. We show that families of fibre surfaces related by iterated…
We show that homotopy pullbacks of sheaves of simplicial sets over a Grothendieck topology distribute over homotopy colimits; this generalizes a result of Puppe about topological spaces. In addition, we show that inverse image functors…
We show that a harmonic map from a Riemann surface into the exceptional symmetric space $G_2/{\mathrm SO}(4)$ has a $J_2$-holomorphic twistor lift into one of the three flag manifolds of $G_2$ if and only if it is `nilconformal', i.e., has…
We derive a theoretically allowed domain for the slope $\widehat\varrho^2$ and curvature $\widehat c$ of the physical form factor appearing in the decay $\bar B\to D^*\ell\bar\nu$. Using heavy-quark symmetry, we relate this function to a…
We study a family of hypergeometric motives $H(\alpha,\beta|t)$ attached to a pair of tuples $\alpha=(1/4,1/2,3/4)$, $\beta=(0,0,0)$. To each such motive we can attach a system of $\ell$--adic realisations with the trace of geometric…
Conformally symplectic diffeomorphisms $f:M \rightarrow M$ transform a symplectic form $\omega$ on a manifold M into a multiple of itself, $f^* \omega = \eta \omega$. We assume $\omega$ is bounded, as some of the results may fail otherwise.…
We consider the reductions of $2p$-dimensional particle system ($p=2,4,8$), associated with the Hopf map. For the third Hopf map we explicitly construct the functions associated to the symmetry related to the rotations in the fiber.
We formulate a concrete geometric approximation hypothesis (Hypothesis~BB) asserting that codimension-$2$ Hodge classes on a smooth projective threefold can be realized as specializations of families whose general members are…
Given a bounded open connected Lipschitz set $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^2$, we show that the relaxed Cartesian area functional $\overline{\mathcal A}(u,\Omega)$ of a map $u\in W^{1,1}(\Omega;\mathbb S^1)$ is finite, and provide a useful…
In this paper, we formally investigate two mathematical aspects of Hermite splines which translate to features that are relevant to their practical applications. We first demonstrate that Hermite splines are maximally localized in the sense…
A classical approach to investigate a closed projective scheme $W$ consists of considering a general hyperplane section of $W$, which inherits many properties of $W$. The inverse problem that consists in finding a scheme $W$ starting from a…
A super-conformal map and a minimal surface are factored into a product of two maps by modeling the Euclidean four-space and the complex Euclidean plane on the set of all quaternions. One of these two maps is a holomorphic map or a…
Let $\mathrm{Hilb}^gS$ be the Hilbert scheme of $g$ points on a K3 surface $S$. Suppose that $\mathrm{Pic}S\cong\Z C$ where $C$ is a smooth curve with $C^2=2(g-1)n^2$. We prove that $\mathrm{Hilb}^gS$ is a Lagrangian fibration.
The classical notion of retraction map used to approximate geodesics is extended and rigorously defined to become a powerful tool to construct geometric integrators and it is called discretization map. Using the geometry of the tangent and…
Let $X$ and $Y$ be proper birational varieties, say with only rational double points over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic. If $X$ lifts to $W_n(k)$, is it true that $Y$ has the same lifting property? This is true for smooth…
Assume that there exists a smooth map between two closed manifolds $M^m\to N^k$ with only finitely many cone-like singular points, where $2\leq k\leq m\leq 2k-1$. If $(m,k)\not\in\{(2,2), (4,3), (5,3), (8,5), (16,9)\}$, then $M^m$ admits a…
A parametric Oka principle for liftings, recently proved by Forstneric, provides many examples of holomorphic maps that are fibrations in a model structure introduced in previous work of ours. We use this to show that the basic Oka property…
With the help of a new type of functionals we study manifolds diffeomorphic to $S^2\times S^2$ and establish, in particular, the Hopf conjecture.
In this paper we investigate the space of harmonic maps from a 2-torus to $\mathbb{S}^3$ using the spectral curve correspondence and Whitham deformations. In an open and dense subset of a parameter space we find that the space of harmonic…
