We study identities of finite dimensional algebras over a field of characteristic zero, graded by an arbitrary groupoid $\Gamma$. First we prove that its graded colength has a polynomially bounded growth. For any graded simple algebra $A$…
We prove an analogue for a one-phase free boundary problem of the classical gradient bound for solutions to the minimal surface equation. It follows, in particular, that every energy-minimizing free boundary that is a graph is also smooth.…
We use Beltrami's theorem as an excuse to present some arguments from parabolic differential geometry without any of the parabolic machinery.
We prove finiteness results on integral points on complements of large divisors in projective varieties over finitely generated fields of characteristic zero. To do so, we prove a function field analogue of arithmetic finiteness results of…
We construct a nonminimal graded free resolution of Segre embeddings of $P^1\times P^1$, although we don't compute all maps. We use this to prove an explicit formula for certain nonzero entries in the graded Betti table, at the end of the…
We give a new simpler proof of a theorem of Jayne and Rogers.
We study geometry of the ring of integers $O_K$ of a number field $K$. Namely, it is proved that the inclusion $\mathbf{Z}\subset O_K$ defines a covering of the Riemann sphere $\mathbf{C}P^1$ ramified over the points $\{0,1,\infty\}$. Our…
We show that every open Riemann surface can be obtained by glueing together a countable collection of equilateral triangles, in such a way that every vertex belongs to finitely many triangles. Equivalently, it is a _Belyi surface_: There…
We give sharp lower bounds for the degree of the syzygies involving the partial derivatives of a homogeneous polynomial defining an even dimensional nodal hypersurface. This implies the validity of formulas due to M. Saito, L. Wotzlaw and…
We give a sufficient condition for a monomial ideal to have a nonzero Betti number in each multidegree. In the case of facet ideals of simplicial forests, this condition becomes a necessary one and it allows us to characterize Betti…
We prove that a germ of a finite morphism of smooth surfaces is rigid if the germ of its branch curve has one of $ADE$-singularity types and establish a correspondence between the set of rigid germs and the set of Belyi rational functions…
We give an upper bound for the degree of rational curves in a family that covers a given birational ruled surface in projective space. The upper bound is stated in terms of the degree, sectional genus and arithmetic genus of the surface. We…
The polynomial method has been used recently to obtain many striking results in combinatorial geometry. In this paper, we use affine Hilbert functions to obtain an estimation theorem in finite field geometry. The most natural way to state…
A basic measure of the combinatorial complexity of a convexity space is its Radon number. In this paper we show a fractional Helly theorem for convexity spaces with a bounded Radon number, answering a question of Kalai. As a consequence we…
In the first part of this paper, we establish some results around generalized Borel's Theorem. As an application, in the second part, we construct example of smooth surface of degree $d\geq 19$ in $\mathbb{CP}^3$ whose complements is…
We establish some upper and lower bounds for the number of rational points of Prym varieties over finite fields.
Riemann's Existence Theorem gives the following bijections: (1) Isomorphism classes of Belyi maps of degree $d$. (2) Equivalence classes of generating systems of degree $d$. (3) Isomorphism classes of dessins d'enfants with $d$ edges. In…
In this paper, we give a new and efficient algebraic criterion for the pure as well as non-pure shellability of simplicial complex $\Delta$ over [n]. We also give an algebraic characterization of a leaf in a simplicial complex (defined in…
A brief proof of Lie's classification of finite dimensional subalgebras of vector fields on the complex plane that have a proper Levi decomposition is given. The proof uses basic representation theory of sl(2, C). This, combined with…
This treats the base-point-freeness of the adjoint bundles on normal surfaces with a boundary. This is an extension of the non-relative version of the theorem of Ein-Lazarsfeld-Masek and the theorem of Kawachi-Masek.
