We report on the construction of a database of nonhyperelliptic genus 3 curves over Q of small discriminant.
We formulate the geometric P=W conjecture for singular character varieties. We establish it for compact Riemann surfaces of genus one, and obtain partial results in arbitrary genus. To this end, we employ non-Archimedean, birational and…
We show that a sequence is q-holonomic if and only if it satisfies the elimination property for any subset of variables. The same result also holds for holonomic sequences. As an application, we prove several conjectured closure properties…
We show for a class of sequences $(a_n)_{n\geq 1}$ of distinct positive integers, that for no $\alpha$ the sequence $(\left\{a_n \alpha \right\})_{n \geq 1}$ does have Poissonian pair correlation. This class contains for example all…
Let $G$ be a $k$-connected graph on $n$ vertices. Hippchen's Conjecture states that two longest paths in $G$ share at least $k$ vertices. Guti\'errez recently proved the conjecture when $k\leq 4$ or $k\geq \frac{n-2}{3}$. We improve upon…
English: We continue the study of G. Castelnuovo on the group of birational transformation of the complex plane that fix each point of a curve of genus >1; we use adjoint linear system of the curve as Castelnuovo does. We prove that these…
We prove and conjecture results which show that Castelnuovo theory in projective space has a close analogue for abelian varieties. This is related to the geometric Schottky problem: our main result is that a principally polarized abelian…
These notes provide an introduction to Giroux's theory of convex surfaces in contact 3-manifolds and its simplest applications. They put a special emphasis on pictures and discussions of explicit examples. The first goal is to explain why…
We show that the only closed 4-manifolds admitting genus two trisections are $S^2 \times S^2$ and connected sums of $S^1 \times S^3$, $\mathbb{CP}^2$, and $\overline{\mathbb{CP}}^2$ with two summands. Moreover, each of these manifolds…
We extend Carpi's results by showing that Dejean's conjecture holds for n >= 30.
We report the results of our empirical investigations on the Bateman-Horn conjecture. This conjecture, in its commonly known form, produces rather large deviations when the polynomials involved are not monic. We propose a modified version…
Let $(P,\leq)$ be a finite poset (partially ordered set), where $P$ has cardinality $n$. Consider linear extensions of $P$ as permutations $x_1x_2\cdots x_n$ in one-line notation. For distinct elements $x,y\in P$, we define…
Deligne's conjecture is the Lefschetz trace formula for correspondences defined over a finite field. In this paper, we prove an analogous statement of Deligne's conjecture with respect to $p^n$-torsion \'etale cohomology under certain…
We prove the Burghelea Conjecture for groups satisfying some additional cohomological property.
We show that the Union-Closed Conjecture holds for the union-closed family generated by the cyclic translates of any fixed set.
Let k=F_q be a finite field of characteristic 2. A genus 3 curve C/k has many involutions if the group of k-automorphisms admits a C_2\times C_2 subgroup H (not containing the hyperelliptic involution if C is hyperelliptic). Then C is an…
A family of sets is said to be symmetric if its automorphism group is transitive, and $3$-wise intersecting if any three sets in the family have nonempty intersection. Frankl conjectured in 1981 that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a symmetric $3$-wise…
We determine necessary conditions for ample divisors in arbitrary genus as well as for very ample divisors in genus 2 and 3. We also compute the intersection numbers $\lambda^9$ and $\lambda_{g-1}^3$ in genus 4. The latter number is…
We prove that the set of directions of lines intersecting three disjoint balls in $R^3$ in a given order is a strictly convex subset of $S^2$. We then generalize this result to $n$ disjoint balls in $R^d$. As a consequence, we can improve…
We establish a connection between Cohen-Lyndon triples and equivariant homology theory, with a focus on the Baum-Connes conjecture. In the first part of this work, we establish an excision sequence for the classifying spaces for proper…
