We consider a type of distance-regular graph $\Gamma=(X, \mathcal R)$ called a bilinear forms graph. We assume that the diameter $D$ of $\Gamma$ is at least $3$. Fix adjacent vertices $x,y \in X$. In our first main result, we introduce an…

Consider a smooth variety $X$ and a smooth divisor $D\subset X$. Kim and Sato (arXiv:0806.3819) define a natural compactification of $(X\setminus D)^n$, denoted $X_D^{[n]}$, which is a moduli space of stable configurations of $n$ points…

We show how a quasi-smooth derived enhancement of a Deligne-Mumford stack X naturally endows X with a functorial perfect obstruction theory in the sense of Behrend-Fantechi. This result is then applied to moduli of maps and perfect…

Let X be a smooth complex surface of general type such that the image of the canonical map $\phi$ of X is a surface $\Sigma$ and that $\phi$ has degree $\delta\geq 2$. Let $\epsilon\colon S\to \Sigma$ be a desingularization of $\Sigma$ and…

The bad locus of a base-point free linear system L on a normal complex projective variety X is defined as the subset B(L) of X of points that are not contained in any irreducible and reduced member of L. In this paper we provide a geometric…

We prove a conjecture by F. Ferrari. Let X be the total space of a nonlinear deformation of a rank 2 holomorphic vector bundle on a smooth rational curve, such that X has trivial canonical bundle and has sections. Then the normal bundle to…

We establish a criterion for the strong $F$-regularity of a (non-Gorenstein) Cohen-Macaulay reduced complete local ring of dimension at least $2$, containing a perfect field of prime characteristic $p$. We also describe an explicit…

Let $\mathbf x=\{x^{(1)},\dots,x^{(n)}\}$ be a space filling-design of $n$ points defined in $[0{,}1]^d$. In computer experiments, an important property seeked for $\mathbf x$ is a nice coverage of $[0{,}1]^d$. This property could be…

For conformal geometries of Riemannian signature, we provide a comprehensive and explicit treatment of the core local theory for embedded submanifolds of arbitrary dimension. This is based in the conformal tractor calculus and includes a…

A good canonical projection of a surface $S$ of general type is a morphism to the 3-dimensional projective space P^3 given by 4 sections of the canonical line bundle. To such a projection one associates the direct image sheaf F of the…

Let $\mathbf{k}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $\geq 7$ or zero. Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a tame order of global dimension $2$ over a normal surface $X$ over $\mathbf{k}$ such that…

Let $X$ be a symmetric, isotropic random vector in $\mathbb{R}^m$ and let $X_1...,X_n$ be independent copies of $X$. We show that under mild assumptions on $\|X\|_2$ (a suitable thin-shell bound) and on the tail-decay of the marginals…

This paper deals with properties of the algebraic variety defined as the set of zeros of a "typical" sequence of polynomials. We consider various types of "nice" varieties: set-theoretic and ideal-theoretic complete intersections,…

This article presents a theory for constructing hierarchical networks in such a way that the networks are guaranteed to be provably scale covariant. We first present a general sufficiency argument for obtaining scale covariance, which holds…

Let $I$ be an ideal of the polynomial ring $A[x]=A[x_1,...,x_n]$ over the commutative, noetherian ring $A$. Geometrically $I$ defines a family of affine schemes over $\Spec(A)$: For $\p\in\Spec(A)$, the fibre over $\p$ is the closed…

In this work, we propose a systematic derivation of resonance-based schemes via normal forms. The main idea is to use an arborification map on decorated trees together with a Butcher-Connes-Kreimer type coproduct and lower-dominant parts…

The aim of this note is to define certain sheaves of vertex algebras on smooth manifolds. For each smooth complex algebraic (or analytic) manifold $X$, we construct a sheaf $\Omega^{ch}_X$, called the {\bf chiral de Rham complex} of $X$. It…

Let X be a separated finite type scheme over a noetherian base ring K. There is a complex C(X) of topological O_X-modules on X, called the complete Hochschild chain complex of X. To any O_X-module M - not necessarily quasi-coherent - we…

Consider rectangular matrices over a commutative ring R. Assume the ideal of maximal minors factorizes, I_m(A)=J_1*J_2. When is A left-right equivalent to a block-diagonal matrix? (When does the module/sheaf Coker(A) decompose as the…

This paper studies well-defindness and convergence of subdivision schemes which operate on Riemannian manifolds with nonpositive sectional curvature. These schemes are constructed from linear ones by replacing affine averages by the…
