The minimal log discrepancy is an invariant of singularities that plays an important role in the birational classification of algebraic varieties. Shokurov conjectured that the minimal log discrepancy can always be bounded from above in…
Borodin et al figured out a gap of the paper published at J. Combinatorial Theory Ser. B (Vol.96 (2006) 958--963), and gave a new proof with the similar technique. The purpose of this note is to fix the gap by slightly revising the…
The theory of the on-shell Sudakov form factor to all order of logarithms is explained.
The paper is devoted to the study of homeomoephisms with finite distortion on the plane with use of the modulus techniques.
In the previous version of the paper it was announced that ``sphere homeomorphic flexible polyhedra (with self intersections) do really exist in n-dimensional Euclidean, Lobachevskij and spherical spaces for each $n\geq 3$.'' Now the paper…
We give a survey on recent development of the Novikov conjecture and its applications to topological rigidity and non-rigidity. .
A proof is given of the vector identity proposed by Gubarev, Stodolsky and Zakarov that relates the volume integral of the square of a 3-vector field to non-local integrals of the curl and divergence of the field. The identity is applied to…
Fundamental spin physics has made striking progresses in the last years; new ideas, experiments and data interpretations have been proposed and keep emerging. A review of some of the most important issues in the spin structure of nucleons…
Inscribability of polytopes is a classic subject but also a lively research area nowadays. We illustrate this with a selection of well-known results and recent developments on six particular topics related to inscribable polytopes. Along…
In this paper, we give the rigidity theorem for a log morphism as an extension of a fixed scheme morphism. We also give several applications of the rigidity theorem.
Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a log pair over $S$, such that $-(K_X+\Delta)$ is nef over $S$. It is conjectured that the intersection of the non-klt (non Kawamata log terminal) locus of $(X,\Delta)$ with any fiber $X_s$ has at most two connected…
The goal of these lecture notes is to present the modern point of view on the classification of Fano threefolds. We tried to offer a self-consistent treatment of the topics covered. \par\medskip\noindent These notes have been published in…
This is an overview article, based on my 2018 Kinosaki lecture, that surveys and announces work on 3-fold flopping contractions, their affine combinatorics, stability conditions, tilting bundles and autoequivalences. Some first applications…
This paper has been withdrawn and superseded by a new version entitled "Singularity of the London penetration depth at quantum critical points in superconductors" by Debanjan Chowdhury, Brian Swingle, Erez Berg and Subir Sachdev, posted in…
We prove the factoriality of the following nodal threefolds: a complete intersection of hypersurfaces $F$ and $G\subset\mathbb{P}^{5}$ of degree $n$ and $k$ respectively, where $G$ is smooth, $|\mathrm{Sing}(F\cap…
In this paper, we develop the theory of relative log convergent cohomology. We prove the coherence of relative log convergent cohomology in certain case by using the comparison theorem between relative log convergent cohomlogy and relative…
This paper is a revised version of a previously posted paper in arxiv. The authors posted it as a new submission by mistake. The latest version of the paper can be found at arXiv:math-ph/0512003v2
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of smooth Lyapunov 1-forms for the flow of a smooth vector field in terms of the behavior of certain locally finite invariant measures. The main statement generalizes a result of…
In the category of log schemes, it is unclear how to define the blow-ups for non-strict closed immersions. In this article, we introduce the notion of divided log spaces. We obtain the category of divided log spaces by locally inverting log…
This monograph is centred at the intersection of three mathematical topics, that are theoretical in nature, yet with motivations and relevance deep rooted in applications: the linear inverse problems on abstract, in general…
