In this paper we give an elementary proof of the Zariski-Lipman conjecture for log canonical spaces.
Assume that the generalized Ramanujan conjecture holds on the automorphic $L$-function $L(s, \pi)$ on $\GL_d$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ with $d\geq 3$, we can obtain a small log-saving non-trivial bound on the second integral moment of $L(1/2+it,…
Given a three-dimensional projective log canonical pair over a perfect field of characteristic larger than five, there exists a minimal model program that terminates after finitely many steps.
In this paper, we generalise the theory of complements to log canonical log fano varieties and prove boundedness of complements for them in dimension less than or equal to 3. We also prove some boundedness results for the canonical index of…
We prove a formula of log canonical models for moduli space $\bar{M}_{g,n}$ of pointed stable curves which describes all Hassett's moduli spaces of weighted pointed stable curves in a single equation. This is a generalization of the…
Green and Sisask showed that the maximal number of $3$-term arithmetic progressions in $n$-element sets of integers is $\lceil n^2/2\rceil$; it is easy to see that the same holds if the set of integers is replaced by the real line or by any…
Under the assumption of the minimal model theory for projective klt pairs of dimension $n$, we establish the minimal model theory for lc pairs $(X/Z,\Delta)$ such that the log canonical divisor is relatively log abundant and its restriction…
We study log canonical thresholds (also called global log canonical threshold or $\alpha$-invariant) of $\mathbb{R}$-linear systems. We prove existence of positive lower bounds in different settings, in particular, proving a conjecture of…
This paper discusses Tverberg-type theorems with coordinate constraints (i.e., versions of these theorems where all points lie within a subset $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and the intersection of convex hulls is required to have a non-empty…
Building on results of Koll\'ar, we prove Shokurov's ACC Conjecture for log canonical thresholds on smooth varieties, and more generally, on varieties with quotient singularities.
We prove that with high probability $\mathbb{G}^{(3)}(n,n^{-1+o(1)})$ contains a spanning Steiner triple system for $n\equiv 1,3\pmod{6}$, establishing the exponent for the threshold probability for existence of a Steiner triple system. We…
In this paper, we show that the log canonical threshold of a potentially klt triple can be computed by a quasi-monomial valuation. The notion of potential triples provides a larger and more flexible framework to work with than that of…
To each $\alpha\in(1/3,1/2)$ we associate the Cantor set $$\Gamma_{\alpha}:=\Big\{\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}\epsilon_{i}\alpha^i: \epsilon_i\in\{0,1\},\,i\geq 1\Big\}.$$ In this paper we consider the intersection $\Gamma_\alpha \cap (\Gamma_\alpha…
We show that among any $n$ points in the unit cube one can find a triangle of area at most $n^{-2/3-c}$ for some absolute constant $c >0$. This gives the first non-trivial upper bound for the three-dimensional version of Heilbronn's…
In this paper we prove the Zariski-Lipman conjecture for log canonical spaces.
We formulate and give partial answers to several combinatorial problems on volumes of simplices determined by $n$ points in 3-space, and in general in $d$ dimensions. (i) The number of tetrahedra of minimum (nonzero) volume spanned by $n$…
We present a new relation between an invariant of singularities in characteristic zero (the log canonical threshold) and an invariant of singularities defined via the Frobenius morphism in positive characteristic (the F-pure threshold). We…
Gerhold conjectured and proved conditionally that (log n: n=1,2,...) is not a holonomic sequence. Flajolet, Gerhold and Salvy gave a proof using an analytic machinery. We give a simple proof.
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the (bounded) law of the iterated logarithm for canonical $U$-statistics of arbitrary order $d$, extending the previously known results for $d=2$. The nasc's are expressed as growth conditions…
Let $p_1,...,p_{s+1}$ be distinct primes and let $T_{p_i}$ be the von Niemann - Kakutani adding machine $(1 \leq i \leq s)$, $T_{\mathcal{P}}(\mathbf{x}) =(T_{p_1}(x_1),..., T_{p_s}(x_s))$. Let $y_i \in (0,1)$ be a $p_{s+1}$-rational $(1…
