If S is a smooth compact surface in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ with strictly positive second fundamental form, and $E_S$ is the corresponding extension operator, then we prove that for all $p > 3$, $\left\|E_S f\right\|_{L^p\left(\mathbb{R}^3\right)}…

In this paper, we give a complete classification of extensions of finite irreducible conformal modules over rank two Lie conformal algebras.

We prove the $l^2$ Decoupling Conjecture for compact hypersurfaces with positive definite second fundamental form and also for the cone. This has a wide range of important consequences. One of them is the validity of the Discrete…

K. Harada conjectured for any finite group $G$, the product of sizes of all conjugacy classes is divisible by the product of degrees of all irreducible characters. We study this conjecture when $G$ is the general linear group over a finite…

We prove that there exists just one pair of complex four-dimensional Lie algebras such that a well-defined contraction among them is not equivalent to a generalized IW-contraction (or to a one-parametric subgroup degeneration in…

We consider a six dimensional gauge theory compactified on $T^2/\mathbb{Z}_2$ with magnetic flux. The configurations of models are classified by winding numbers at the fixed points. Requiring the existence of generation numbers and Yukawa…

We investigate swampland conjectures for quantum gravity in the context of M-theory compactified on Calabi-Yau threefolds which admit infinite sequences of flops. Naively, the moduli space of such compactifications contains paths of…

The long standing Lech's conjecture in commutative algebra states that for a flat local extension $(R,\mathfrak{m})\to (S,\mathfrak{n})$ of Noetherian local rings, we have an inequality on the Hilbert--Samuel multiplicities: $e(R)\leq…

A short note that contains some Cliff's notes of the general theory (see math.AG/9905103) but concentrates on one of the stranger aspects of it - existence of other irreducible components.

In this paper we address the classification problem for locally compact (n-1)-connected CW-complexes with dimension less or equal than n+2 up to proper homotopy type. We obtain complete classification theorems in terms of purely algebraic…

It was shown by Connes, Douglas, Schwarz[1] that one can compactify M(atrix) theory on noncommutative torus. We prove that compactifications on Morita equivalent tori are physically equivalent. This statement can be considered as a…

These are notes based on lectures given at TASI99. We review the geometry of the moduli space of N=2 theories in four dimensions from the point of view of superstring compactification. The cases of a type IIA or type IIB string compactified…

We provide various counter-examples to the long-standing so-called "Omnibus Conjecture" in Rational Homotopy Theory. That is, we show that a space with finite dimensional even-degree rational cohomology and finite dimensional spherical…

Non-supersymmetric orbifolds of N=1 super Yang-Mills theories are conjectured to inherit properties from their supersymmetric parent. We examine this conjecture by compactifying the Z_2 orbifold theories on a spatial circle of radius R. We…

Generalizing a construction of Wolfgang L\"uck and Bob Oliver, we define a good equivariant cohomology theory on the category of proper G-CW complexes when G is an arbitrary Lie group (possibly non-compact). This is done by constructing an…

Jacobian conjectures (that nonsingular implies invertible) for rational everywhere defined maps of real n-space to itself are considered, with no requirement for a constant Jacobian determinant or a rational inverse. The associated…

This paper addresses one of the fundamental open questions in the realm of existential rules: the conjecture on the finite controllability of bounded derivation depth rule sets (bdd $\Rightarrow$ fc). We take a step toward a positive…

We show that the uniform Littlewood Conjecture (ULC) recently introduced by Bandi, Fregoli and Kleinbock is false. More precisely the counterexamples form a residual set, the method further suggests positive Hausdorff dimension. For a…

We prove a Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing theorem on a normal compact Kahler space X: if L is a nef line bundle with numerical dimension at least equal to 2, then the q-th cohomology group of K_X+L vanishes for q at least equal to the dimension…

In this note, we exhibit a method to prove the Baum-Connes conjecture (with coefficients) for extensions with finite quotients of certain groups which already satisfy the Baum-Connes conjecture. Interesting examples to which this method…
