A differential-algebraic geometric analogue of the Dixmier-Moeglin equivalence is articulated, and proven to hold for $D$-groups over the constants. The model theory of differentially closed fields of characteristic zero, in particular the…

We analyze D-brane states and their central charges on the resolution of C^2/Z_n by using local mirror symmetry. There is a point in the moduli space where all n(n-1)/2 branches of the principal component of the discriminant locus coincide.…

We make explicit some conditions on a semi-abelian category D such that, for any abelian group A in D and any object Y in D, the cohomology group homomorphisms with coefficients in A, induced by the inclusion of the abelian objects of D at…

We provide a formula (see Theorem 1.5) for the Matlis dual of the injective hull of $R/\mathfrak{p}$ where $\mathfrak p$ is a one dimensional prime ideal in a local complete Gorenstein domain $(R,\mathfrak{m})$. This is related to results…

We survey results concerning behavior of positivity of line bundles and possible vanishing theorems in positive characteristic. We also try to describe variation of positivity in mixed characteristic. These problems are very much related to…

New relations among the genus-zero Gromov-Witten invariants of a complex projective manifold $X$ are exhibited. When the cohomology of $X$ is generated by divisor classes and classes ``with vanishing one-point invariants,'' the relations…

This thesis is comprised of three chapters. The first chapter deals with bounded complexes of Gorenstein projective and Gorenstein injective modules. Deploying methods of relative homological algebra, we approximate such complexes with…

Let W be a smooth complex quasiprojective variety with the action of a connected reductive group G. Adapting the stratification approach of Teleman to a microlocal context, we prove a vanishing theorem for the functor of G-invariant…

We compute the cohomology of the stack M_1 with coefficients in Z[1/2], and in low degrees with coefficients in Z. Cohomology classes on M_1 give rise to characteristic classes, cohomological invariants of families of curves of genus one.…

We study the behaviour of D-cap-modules on rigid analytic varieties under pushforward along a proper morphism. We prove a D-cap-module analogue of Kiehl's Proper Mapping Theorem, considering the derived sheaf-theoretic pushforward from…

Let Y ~ Y_d(n,p) denote the Bernoulli random d-dimensional simplicial complex. We answer a question of Linial and Meshulam from 2003, showing that the threshold for vanishing of homology H_{d-1}(Y; Z) is less than 80d log n / n. This bound…

This paper establishes a second vanishing theorem for formal local cohomology modules over Noetherian local rings. We introduce the \textit{formal dimension} invariant and characterize the vanishing of higher formal local cohomology in…

Billey and Braden defined maps on flag manifolds that are the geometric counterpart of permutation patterns. A section of their pattern map is an embedding of the flag manifold of a Levi subgroup into the full flag manifold. We give two…

We introduce the notion of positivity for a real basic $(1,1)$ class in basic Bott-Chern cohomology group on foliated manifolds, and study the relationship between this positivity and the negativity of transverse holomorphic sectional…

Let $R$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables with coefficients in a field $K$ of characteristic zero. Let $D_n$ be the $n$-th Weyl algebra over $K$. Suppose that $f \in R$ defines a hyperplane arrangement in the affine space $K^n$. Then…

Given a graded-commutative ring acting centrally on a triangulated category, our main result shows that if cohomology of a pair of objects of the triangulated category is finitely generated over the ring acting centrally, then the…

Using a transversality argument, we demonstrate the positivity of certain coefficients in the equivariant cohomology and K-theory of a generalized flag manifold. This strengthens earlier equivariant positivity theorems (of Graham and…

We prove a version of the Manin-Mumford conjecture for semiabelian varieties over fields of positive characteristic. The proof presented here contains the details of the proof sketched by the author in the article "Diophantine geometry from…

Let $X$ be a proper homogeneous space for a connected algebraic group $G$ over an algebraically closed field. For locally closed smooth affine subvarieties $W,Z\subset X$, we show that \[ (-1)^{\dim X-\dim W+\dim Z}\chi(gW\cap Z)\geq 0 \]…

We introduce a bounded version of Bredon cohomology for groups relative to a family of subgroups. Our theory generalizes bounded cohomology and differs from Mineyev--Yaman's relative bounded cohomology for pairs. We obtain cohomological…
