We prove that the ACC conjecture for minimal log discrepancies holds for threefolds in $[1-\delta,+\infty)$, where $\delta>0$ only depends on the coefficient set. We also study Reid's general elephant for pairs, and show Shokurov's…

In this note, we derive a uniqueness theorem for minimal graphs of general codimension under certain restrictions closed related to the convexity (not strict convexity) of the area functional with respect to singular values, improving the…

We improve some upper bounds for minimal dispersion on the cube and torus. /Our new ingredient is an improvement of a probabilistic lemma used to obtain upper bounds for dispersion in several previous works. Our new lemma combines a random…

The L_2-discrepancy measures the irregularity of the distribution of a finite point set. In this note we prove lower bounds for the L_2 discrepancy of arbitrary N-point sets. Our main focus is on the two-dimensional case. Asymptotic upper…

In this paper, we study complete simplicial toric varieties admitting faithful actions of large symmetric groups. First, we correct a recent classification result by Esser, Ji, and Moraga concerning $4$-dimensional toric varieties with…

We investigate the topological structures of Galois covers of surfaces of minimal degree (i.e., degree n) in n+1 dimensional complex projective space. We prove that for n is greater than or equal to 5, the Galois covers of any surfaces of…

In this paper, we prove a minimal modularity lifting theorem for Galois representations (conjecturally) associated to Siegel modular forms of genus two which are holomorphic limits of discrete series at infinity.

We show that toric surface singularities deform to toric surface singularities - both in equal and mixed characteristic. As an application, we establish Riemenschneiders conjecture that isolated cyclic quotient singularities of any…

First we construct minimal hypersurfaces $M\subset\mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ in a neighborhood of the origin, with an isolated singularity but cylindrical tangent cone $C\times \mathbf{R}$, for any strictly minimizing strictly stable cone $C$ in…

In this paper we study singularities in arbitrary characteristic. We propose Finite Determination Conjecture for Mather-Jacobian minimal log discrepancies in terms of jet schemes of a singularity. The conjecture is equivalent to the…

A necessary condition for the existence of torus-equivariant crepant resolutions of Gorenstein toric singularities can be derived by making use of a variant of the classical Upper Bound Theorem which is valid for simplicial balls.

Algebraic surfaces in the complex projective space with a high number of A-type singularities have been presented in a recent paper. We extend the construction in order to obtain lower bounds for the maximal number of A singularities for…

We investigate the properties of minimizers of one-dimensional variational problems when the Lagrangian has no higher smoothness than continuity. An elementary approximation result is proved, but it is shown that this cannot be in general…

A combinatorial rectangle may be viewed as a matrix whose entries are all +-1. The discrepancy of an m by n matrix is the maximum among the absolute values of its m row sums and n column sums. In this paper, we investigate combinatorial…

In this paper, we will study the existence problem of minmax minimal torus. We use classical conformal invariant geometric variational methods. We prove a theorem about the existence of minmax minimal torus in Theorem 5.1. Firstly we prove…

Given a toric metrized R-divisor on a toric variety over a global field, we give a formula for the essential minimum of the associated height function. Under suitable positivity conditions, we also give formulae for all the successive…

We prove some epsilon regularity results for n-dimensional minimal two-valued Lipschitz graphs. The main theorems imply uniqueness of tangent cones and regularity of the singular set in a neighbourhood of any point at which at least one…

In this paper, we study tropicalisations of singular surfaces in toric threefolds. We completely classify singular tropical surfaces of maximal-dimensional type, show that they can generically have only finitely many singular points, and…

We give a criterion for the existence of non-commutative crepant resolutions (NCCR's) for certain toric singularities. In particular we recover Broomhead's result that a 3-dimensional toric Gorenstein singularity has a NCCR. Our result also…

This article is an exposition of recent results on self-similar sets, asserting that if the dimension is smaller than the trivial upper bound then there are almost overlaps between cylinders. We give a heuristic derivation of the theorem…
