Given a lattice polytope Q in R^n, we define an affine scheme M(Q) that reflects the possibilities of splitting Q into a Minkowski sum. On the other hand, Q induces a toric Gorenstein singularity Y, and we construct a flat family over M(Q)…

In their paper on multivariable dynamics, Davidson and Katsoulis conjectured that two multivariable dynamical systems have isomorphic tensor algebras if and only if they are piecewise conjugate. We disprove the conjecture by constructing…

We show that a compact Kaehler manifold X is a complex torus if both the continuous part and discrete part of some automorphism group G of X are infinite groups, unless X is bimeromorphic to a non-trivial G-equivariant fibration. Some…

Let $X$ be an affine toric variety and let $D(X)$ be the set of weights of all root subgroups. It is known that $D(X)$ together with its embedding into the character group determines $X$ as a toric variety. In this article we prove that $X$…

We study criteria for the existence of a dense or comeager conjugacy class in the automorphism group of a given measure on the Cantor space. We concentrate on good measures, defined by Akin [\emph{Trans.\ Amer.\ Math.\ Soc.} \textbf{357}…

We study authomorphisms of $Ind$-groups of polynomial automorphisms (wich are singular) via tame approximations. Such objects were pioneeered in research by B.I.Plotkin We obtain a number of properties of $Aut(Aut(A))$, where $A$ is the…

Let $G$ be a smooth connected linear algebraic group over a field $k$, and let $X$ be a $G$-torsor. Totaro asked: if $X$ admits a zero-cycle of degree $d \geq 1$, then does $X$ have a closed \'etale point of degree dividing $d$? We give an…

We give a sufficient criterion for the Chow or algebraic bordism groups of an algebraic stack, localized at a set of Chern classes of line bundles, to be concentrated in some closed substack. This is a vast generalization of the torus…

Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold such that its canonical bundle $K_X$ is numerically trivial. Assume additionally that $X$ is Moishezon or $X$ is Fujiki with dimension at most four. Using the MMP and classical results in foliation…

The classical Juzvinski\u{i} Addition Theorem states that the entropy of an automorphism of a compact group decomposes along invariant subgroups. Thomas generalized the theorem to a skew-product setting. Using L. Bowen's f-invariant we…

The set of all subspaces of a given dimension in a finite classical polar space has a structure of a symmetric association scheme. If the dimension is zero, this is the scheme of the collinearity graph of the space; If the dimension is…

We consider a normal complete rational variety with a torus action of complexity one. In the main results, we determine the roots of the automorphism group and give an explicit description of the root system of its semisimple part. The…

The famous theorem of Matsumura-Oort states that if $X$ is a proper scheme, then the automorphism group functor $\mathfrak{Aut}(X)$ of $X$ is a locally algebraic group scheme. In this paper we generalize this theorem to the category of…

Given a proper toric variety and a line bundle on it, we describe the morphism on singular cohomology given by the cup product with the Chern class of that line bundle in terms of the data of the associated fan. Using that, we relate the…

We prove a global Torelli theorem for the moduli space of marked triples (X,m,A), consisting of an irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold X, a marking m of its second integral cohomology, and a stable and rigid sheaf A of Azumaya…

Following the philosophy of arithmetic topology, we describe a point of view which helps look at surfaces and $p$-adic fields in a "uniform way", and show that results on mapping class groups can be extended to this point of view, and thus…

Pseudo-automorphisms are birational transformations acting as regular automorphisms in codimension 1. We import ideas from geometric group theory to prove that a group of birational transformations that satisfies a fixed point property on…

We reduce a strong version of the twist conjecture for Artin groups to Artin groups whose defining graphs have no separating vertices. This produces new examples of Artin groups satisfying the conjecture, and sheds more light on the…

We show that there is an infinite group of special automorphisms of the deformed group of diffeomorphisms, which describes parallel transports in Riemannian spaces of any variable curvature. Generators of translations of such group contain…
