A differential analogue of the conjecture of Reichstein, Rogalski, and Zhang in algebraic dynamics is here established: if $X$ is a projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero which admits a global algebraic…

Let $X$ be a smooth variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic, ${\rm D}_X$ the sheaf of PD-differential operators, and ${\bar D}_X$ its central reduction, the sheaf of small differential operators. In this…

In this paper we discuss an obstruction to the integral Hodge conjecture, which arises from certain behavior of vanishing cycles. This allows us to construct new counter-examples to the integral Hodge conjecture. One typical such…

Let $A$ be a complex Banach algebra. If the spectrum of an invertible element $a\in A$ does not separate the plane, then $a$ admits a logarithm. We present two elementary proofs of this classical result which are independent of the…

We give an example of a function $f$ non-vanishing in the closed bidisk and the affine polynomial minimizing the norm of $1-pf$ in the Hardy space of the bidisk among all affine polynomials $p$. We show that this polynomial vanishes inside…

We prove that the universal cover of a normal complex algebraic variety admitting a faithful complex representation of its fundamental group is an analytic Zariski open subset of a holomorphically convex complex space. This is a non-proper…

We prove, using $p$-adic Hodge theory for open algebraic varieties, that for a smooth projective variety over a subfield $k\subset\mathbb C$ which is of finite type over $\mathbb Q$, the complex abel jacobi map vanishes if the etale abel…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a domain that supports the $p$-Poincar\'e inequality. Given a homeomorphism $\varphi \in L^1_p(\Omega)$, for $p>n$ we show the domain $\varphi(\Omega)$ has finite geodesic diameter. This result has a…

Let $\Omega$ be an open, bounded domain in the plane with connected and smooth boundary, and $\omega$ an eigenfunction of the Neumann Laplacian corresponding to some Neumann eigenvalue $\mu > 0$. If the boundary value of $\omega$ is a…

We suggest a relatively simple and totally geometric conjectural description of uncolored DAHA superpolynomials of arbitrary algebraic knots (conjecturally coinciding with the reduced stable Khovanov-Rozansky polynomials) via the flagged…

We show that if $X$ is a smooth complex projective variety with Kodaira dimension $0$ then the Kodaira dimension of a general fiber of its Albanese map is at most $h^0(\Omega ^1 _X)$.

Kaplansky Zero Divisor Conjecture states that if $G $ is a torsion free group and $ \mathbb{F} $ is a field, then the group ring $\mathbb{F}[G]$ contains no zero divisor and Kaplansky Unit Conjecture states that if $G $ is a torsion free…

Let $X$ be a Banach space on which a discrete group $\Gamma$ acts by isometries. For certain natural choices of $X$, every element of the group algebra, when regarded as an operator on $X$, has empty residual spectrum. We show, for…

We explore a relationship between the classical representation theory of a complex, semisimple Lie algebra \g and the resonance varieties R(V,K)\subset V^* attached to irreducible \g-modules V and submodules K\subset V\wedge V. In the…

The coarse geometric Novikov conjecture provides an algorithm to determine when the higher index of an elliptic operator on a noncompact space is nonzero. The purpose of this paper is to prove the coarse geometric Novikov conjecture for…

We show that closed aspherical manifolds supporting an affine structure, whose holonomy map is injective and contains a pure translation, must have vanishing simplicial volume. This provides some further evidence for the veracity of the…

We study the Zariski cancellation problem for Poisson algebras asking whether $A[t]\cong B[t]$ implies $A\cong B$ when $A$ and $B$ are Poisson algebras. We resolve this affirmatively in the cases when $A$ and $B$ are both connected graded…

Let $S$ be a surface with $p_g(S)=0$, $q(S)=1$ and endowed with a very ample line bundle $\mathcal O_S(h)$ such that $h^1\big(S,\mathcal O_S(h)\big)=0$. We show that such an $S$ supports families of dimension $p$ of pairwise non-isomorphic,…

Let $X$ be a minimal surface of general type and maximal Albanese dimension with irregularity $q\geq 2$. We show that $K_X^2\geq 4\chi(\mathcal O_X)+4(q-2)$ if $K_X^2<\frac92\chi(\mathcal O_X)$, and also obtain the characterization of the…
