Let $\pi: X \longrightarrow C$ be a fibration with reduced fibers over a curve $C$ and consider a polarization $H$ on the surface $X$. Let $E$ be a stable vector bundle of rank $2$ on $C$. We prove that the pullback $\pi^*E$ is a $H-$stable…

The image of the branch set of a PL branched cover between PL $n$-manifolds is a simplicial $(n-2)$-complex. We demonstrate that the reverse implication also holds: an open and discrete map $f \colon \mathbb{S}^n \to \mathbb{S}^n$ with the…

Let $S$ be a regular surface endowed with a very ample line bundle $\mathcal O_S(h_S)$. Taking inspiration from a very recent result by D. Faenzi on $K3$ surfaces, we prove that if $\mathcal O_S(h_S)$ satisfies a short list of technical…

We show that the category of affine bundles over a smooth manifold M is equivalent to the category of affine spaces modelled on projective finitely generated C^\infty(M)-modules. Using this equivalence of categories, we are able to give an…

Let $\k$ be a characteristic zero PID, $S$ be a $\k$-algebra and $T\subseteq S$ be a full rank subalgebra. Suppose the algebra $T$ is symmetric. It is important to know when $T$ is a {\em maximal symmetric subalgebra} of $S$, i.e. no…

Let F be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2. We show that every nonsingular skew-symmetric n by n matrix X over F is orthogonally similar to a bidiagonal skew-symmetric matrix. In the singular case one has to…

Suppose B=F[x,y,z]/h is the homogeneous coordinate ring of a characteristic p degree 3 irreducible plane curve C with a node. Let J be a homogeneous (x,y,z)-primary ideal and n -> e_n be the Hilbert-Kunz function of B with respect to J. Let…

Let $F\subseteq\mathbb{P}^3$ be a smooth quartic surface and let $\mathcal{O}_F(h):=\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^3}(1)\otimes\mathcal{O}_F$. In the present paper we classify locally free sheaves $\mathcal{E}$ of rank $2$ on $F$ such that…

Alignment is a geometric relation between pairs of Weyl-Heisenberg SICs, one in dimension $d$ and another in dimension $d(d-2)$, manifesting a well-founded conjecture about a number-theoretical connection between the SICs. In this paper, we…

K{\"u}chle classified the Fano fourfolds that can be obtained as zero loci of global sections of homogeneous vector bundles on Grassmannians. Surprisingly, his classification exhibits two families of fourfolds with the same discrete…

We study vector bundles on flag varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$. In the first part, we suppose $G=G_k(d,n)$ $(2\le d\leq n-d)$ to be the Grassmannian manifold parameterizing linear subspaces of dimension $d$ in $k^n$, where…

In this paper, motivated by the singularity formation of ASD connections in gauge theory, we study an algebraic analogue of the singularity formation of families of rank two holomorphic vector bundles over surfaces. For this, we define a…

Let $(P,\leq)$ be a finite poset (partially ordered set), where $P$ has cardinality $n$. Consider linear extensions of $P$ as permutations $x_1x_2\cdots x_n$ in one-line notation. For distinct elements $x,y\in P$, we define…

Given a finite set $E$, a subset $D\sub E$ (viewed as a function $E\to \F_2$) is orthogonal to a given subspace $\FF$ of the $\F_2$-vector space of functions $E\to \F_2$ as soon as $D$ is orthogonal to every $\sub$-minimal element of $\FF$.…

A family of sets $\mathcal{A}$ is union-closed if it is finite and nonempty with member sets that are all finite and distinct (at least one of which is nonempty) and it satisfies the property $X, Y \in \mathcal{A} \implies X \cup Y \in…

We classify row-finite Leavitt path algebras associated to graphs with no more than two vertices. For the discussion we use the following invariants: decomposability, the $K_0$ group, $\det(N'_E)$ (included in the Franks invariants), the…

This note is an appendix to 'Measures of irrationality for hypersurfaces of large degree' by L. Ein, R. Lazarsfeld and B. Ullery. We prove an existence result for families of curves having low gonality, and lying on fundamental loci of…

Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with adjacency matrix $A$, and $W=[e,Ae,\ldots,A^{n-1}e]$ be the walk matrix of $G$, where $e$ is the all-one vector. In Wang [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B, 122 (2017): 438-451], the author showed that any graph…

Motivated by a question of Rubel, we consider the problem of characterizing which noncompact hypersurfaces in $\RR^n$ can be regular level sets of a harmonic function modulo a $C^\infty$ diffeomorphism, as well as certain generalizations to…

Let $A, B\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ be finite, nonempty subsets, let $s\geq 2$ be an integer, and let $h_1(A,B)$ denote the minimal number $t$ such that there exist $2t$ (not necessarily distinct) parallel lines,…
