We prove a structure theorem for projective varieties with nef anticanonical divisors.
Recently, I. Kossovskiy and R. Shafikov have settled the so-called Dimension Conjecture, which characterizes spherical hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb C}^2$ via the dimension of the algebra of infinitesimal automorphisms. In this note, we…
We extend the classical definition of {\it width} to higher dimensional, smooth codimension 2 knots and show in each dimension there are knots of arbitrarily large width.
We investigate the nef cone spanned by the diagonal and the fibre classes of second symmetric product of a curve of genus $g$. This 2-dimensional nef cone gives a characterization of double covers of curves of genus $\le \frac{g-1}{8}$.…
We establish the existence of an irreducible representation of $A_n$ whose dimension does not occur as the dimension of an irreducible representation of $S_n$, and vice versa. This proves a conjecture by Tong-Viet. The main ingredient in…
Given a fibration $f$ between two projective manifolds $X$ and $Y$, we provide a sufficient condition such that the direct images $f_{\ast}(K_{X/Y}\otimes L\otimes\mathscr{I}(f,\|L\|))$ is nef, where $L$ is a holomorphic line bundle with…
In this paper, we introduce several notions of "dimension" of a finite group, involving sizes of generating sets and certain configurations of maximal subgroups. We focus on the inequality $m(G) \leq \mathrm{MaxDim}(G)$, giving a family of…
We prove that certain vector bundles over surfaces are ample if they are so when restricted to divisors, certain numerical criteria hold, and they are semistable (with respect to $\det(E)$). This result is a higher-rank version of a theorem…
We prove that for any smooth projective $3$-fold of general type with canonical volume greater than $12^6$, the image of its bicanonical map has dimension at least $2$. We also study pluricanonical maps of $3$-folds of general type with…
An algebra with identities $a\circ(b\circ c-c\circ b)=(a\circ b)\circ c-(a\circ c)\circ b$ and $a\circ(b\circ c)=b\circ(a\circ c)$ is called Novikov. We construct free Novikov base in terms of Young diagrams. We show that codimensions…
The irrationality exponent of a real number measures how well that number can be approximated by rationals. Real numbers with irrationality exponent strictly greater than $2$ are transcendental numbers, and form a set with rich fractal…
The aim of this survey paper is threefold: (a) to discuss the status of the Morrison-Kawamata cone conjecture, (b) to report on recent developments towards the Abundance Conjecture, and (c) to discuss the nef line bundle version of the…
We consider a class of "box-like" statistically self-affine functions, and compute the almost-sure box-counting dimension of their graphs. Furthermore, we consider the differentiability of our functions, and prove that, depending on an…
Given a complex algebraic variety X, we define a natural number called the motivic dimension which measures the amount of transcendental (co)homology of X. It is zero precisely when all the (co)homolgy is spanned by algebraic cycles. Most…
Given an associative ring $A$, we present a new approach for establishing the finiteness of the big finitistic projective dimension $\operatorname{FPD}(A)$. The idea is to find a sufficiently nice non-positively graded differential graded…
We present a classification of fake lens spaces of dimension greater or equal to 5 which have as fundamental group the cyclic group of order N = 2^K, in that we extend the results of Wall and others in the case N=2.
In this note, we survey two instances in the representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras where the quantity of a type of structures is intimately related to the size of those same structures. More explicitly, we review the fact…
We study the behavior of generalized lc pairs with $\mathrm{\textbf b}$-log abundant nef part, a meticulously designed structure on algebraic varieties. We show that this structure is preserved under the canonical bundle formula and…
We describe the structure of regular codimension $1$ foliations with numerically projectively flat tangent bundle on complex projective manifolds of dimension at least $4$. Along the way, we prove that either the normal bundle of a regular…
We study the minimal number of existential quantifiers needed to define a diophantine set over a field and relate this number to the essential dimension of the functor of points associated to such a definition.
