A linear system of plane curves satisfying multiplicity conditions at points in general position is called special if the dimension is larger than the expected dimension. A (-1) curve is an irreducible curve with self intersection -1 and…

Let $S=(C \times D)/G$ be a surface isogenous to a higher product of unmixed type with $p_g=q=0$, $G=(\mathbb{Z}/2)^3$ or $(\mathbb{Z}/2)^4$. We construct exceptional sequences of maximal length and quasiphantom categories on $S$.

Leighton's graph covering theorem says that two finite graphs with a common cover have a common finite cover. We present a new proof of this using groupoids, and use this as a model to prove two generalisations of the theorem. The first…

We will announce two theorems. The first theorem will classify all topological types of degenerate fibers appearing in one-parameter families of Riemann surfaces, in terms of ``pseudoperiodic'' surface homeomorphisms. The second theorem…

Motivated by a conjecture of Xiao, we study supporting divisors of fibred surfaces. On the one hand, after developing a formalism to treat one-dimensional families of varieties of any dimension, we give a structure theorem for fibred…

This paper aims to investigate effectivity problems of pluricanonical systems on varieties of general type in positive characteristic. In practice, we will consider a sub-linear system $|S^0_{-}(X, K_X + nK_X)| \subseteq |H^0(X, K_X…

In this paper we investigate the existence of generically finite dominant rational maps from products of curves to surfaces of general type. We prove that the product CxD of two distinct very general curves of genus g>6 and g'>1 does not…

We study and classify linearly normal surfaces in $\mathbf{P}^n$, of degree $d$ and sectional genus $g$, such that $d\geq 2g-1$.

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…

S. Bigelow proved that the braid groups are linear. That is, there is a faithful representation of the braid group into the general linear group of some field. Using this, we deduce from previously known results that the mapping class group…

We study the finiteness of uniform sinks for flow. Precisely, we prove that, for $\alpha>0$ $T>0$, if a vector field $X$ has only hyperbolic singularities or sectionally dissipative singularities, then $X$ can have only finitely many…

We prove that if a continuous piecewise-smooth map on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is comprised of two linear functions, has a bounded orbit, and satisfies a certain non-degeneracy condition, then it has a fixed point. The result has important…

Given a minimal surface equipped with a generically finite map to an Abelian variety, we give an optimal bound on the canonical degree of a rational or an elliptic curve. As a corollary, we obtain the finiteness of rational and elliptic…

This paper proposes a new gradient method to solve the large-scale problems. Theoretical analysis shows that the new method has finite termination property for two dimensions and converges R-linearly for any dimensions. Experimental results…

We consider elliptic surfaces $\mathcal{E}$ over a field $k$ equipped with zero section $O$ and another section $P$ of infinite order. If $k$ has characteristic zero, we show there are only finitely many points where $O$ is tangent to a…

We show the abundance theorem for arithmetic klt threefold pairs whose closed point have residue characteristic greater than five. As a consequence, we give a sufficient condition for the asymptotic invariance of plurigenera for certain…

We propose a formulation of d-dimensional SU(N) Yang-Mills theories on a d+2-dimensional space with the extra two dimensions forming a surface with non-commutative geometry. This equivalence is valid in any finite order in the 1/N…

The systematic study of rational surfaces $Y$ with an anticanonical cycle $D$ dates back to a fundamental paper of Looijenga in 1981. Recently, Gross, Hacking and Keel have introduced new ideas into the subject. The goal of this mainly…

Let $n\geq 6,k\geq 0$ be two integers. Let $H$ be a graph of order $n$ with $k$ components, each of which is an even cycle of length at least $6$ and $G$ be a bipartite graph with bipartition $(X,Y)$ such that $|X|=|Y|\geq n/2$. In this…

The purpose of this article is twofold. The first is to prove a second main theorem for meromorphic mappings of $\C^m$ into a complex projective variety intersecting hypersurfaces in subgeneral position with truncated counting functions.…
