We introduce a general framework for studying special subsets of rational points on an algebraic variety, termed $\mathcal{M}$-points. The notion of $\mathcal{M}$-points generalizes the concepts of integral points, Campana points and Darmon…

Let $X\subset {\mathbb P}_{K}^{m}$ be a smooth irreducible projective algebraic variety of dimension $d$, defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. We say that $X$ is a generalized Fermat variety of type…

Let $X^{n}$ be an arbitrary oriented closed generalized $n$-manifold, $n\ge 5$. In our recent paper (Proc. Edinb. Math. Soc. (2) 63 (2020), no. 2, 597-607) we have constructed a map $t:\mathcal{N}(X^{n}) \to H^{st}_{n} ( X^{n};…

We show that in the constant coefficient case the generic tropical variety of a graded ideal exists. This can be seen as the analogon to the existence of the generic initial ideal in Groebner basis theory. We determine the generic tropical…

For $N\geq n$, let $P_{N,n}$ be a random polytope in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with vertices $\pm X_i$, $1\leq i\leq N$, where $X_1,\dots,X_N$ are i.i.d standard Gaussian vectors in ${\mathbb R}^n$. Random polytopes $P_{N,n}$, as well as their duals,…

Consider the projection of a smooth irreducible surface in $\mathbb{P}^3$ from a point. The uniform position principle implies that the monodromy group of such a projection from a general point in $\mathbb{P}^3$ is the whole symmetric…

We study the iterated blow-up X of projective space along an arbitrary collection of linear subspaces. By replacing the universal torsor with an $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy equivalent model, built from $\mathbb{A}^1$-fiber bundles not just…

For a connected regular scheme X, flat and of finite type over Spec(Z), we construct a reciprocity homomorphism \rho_X: C_X --> \pi_1^\ab(X), which is surjective and whose kernel is the connected component of the identity. The (topological)…

We prove that a real x is 1-generic if and only if every differentiable computable function has continuous derivative at x. This provides a counterpart to recent results connecting effective notions of randomness with differentiability. We…

In this paper, we study how simple linear projections of some projective varieties behave when the projection center runs through the ambient space. More precisely, let $X \subset \P^r$ be a projective variety satisfying Green-Lazarsfeld's…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in general position in the plane. Let $R$ be a set of points disjoint from $P$ such that for every $x,y \in P$ the line through $x$ and $y$ contains a point in $R$. We show that if $|R| < \frac{3}{2}n$ and $P…

Let $G$ be a simple and simply connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic $p>0$. Assume that $p$ is good for the root system of $G$ and that the covering map $G_{sc} \rightarrow G$ is separable.…

We study the matrix factorizations defined by the generic plane projections of a curve singularity of $\mathbb{C}^3$. On the other hand, given a plane curve singularity $Y\subset \mathbb{C}^2$ we study the family of matrix factorizations…

We study generic representations of general linear groups over a finite ring R with coefficients in a field k in which the cardinality of R is invertible, that is functors from finitely-generated projective R-modules to k-vector spaces. We…

We construct a consistent example of a topological space $Y=X \cup \{\infty\}$ such that: 1) $Y$ is regular. 2) Every $G_\delta$ subset of $Y$ is open. 3) The point $\infty$ is not isolated, but it is not in the closure of any discrete…
