In this note we consider multiples aD, where D is a divisor of the blow-up of P^n along points in general position which appears in the Alexander and Hirschowitz list of Veronese embeddings having defective secant varieties. In particular…
We establish Bernstein-centre type of results for the category of mod $p$ representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{Q}_p)$. We treat all the remaining open cases, which occur when $p$ is $2$ or $3$. Our arguments carry over for all primes…
We completely solve the symplectic packing problem with equally sized balls for any rational, ruled, symplectic 4-manifolds. We give explicit formulae for the packing numbers, the generalized Gromov widths, the stability numbers, and the…
Let $P_{d}(n)$ denote the number of $n \times \ldots \times n$ $d$-dimensional partitions with entries from $\left\{0,1,\ldots,n\right\}$. Building upon the works of Balogh-Treglown-Wagner and Noel-Scott-Sudakov, we show that when $d \to…
We describe the embedded resolution of a quasi-ordinary surface singularity (V,p) which results from applying the canonical resolution of Bierstone-Milman to (V,p). We show that this process depends solely on the characteristic pairs of…
Let A be an abelian fourfold. We prove the Standard Conjecture of Hodge type for A. By combining this result with a theorem of Clozel we deduce that numerical equivalence on A coincides with l-adic homological equivalence on A for…
We prove that in the polynomial ring $Q=\mathsf{k}[x,y,z,w]$, with $\mathsf{k}$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, all Gorenstein homogeneous ideals $I$ such that $(x,y,z,w)^4\subseteq I \subseteq (x,y,z,w)^2$ can be…
Lagrange's four-square theorem states that every natural number $n$ can be represented as the sum of four integer squares: $n=x_1^2+x_2^2+x_3^2+x_4^2$. Ramanujan generalized Lagrange's result by providing, up to equivalence, all $54$…
We prove that the category of ordered abelian groups equipped with an automorphism has the Amalgamation Property, deduce that their inductive theory is NIP in the sense of positive logic, and initiate a development of the latter framework.…
We investigate the minimal graded free resolutions of ideals of at most n+1 fat points in general position in P^n. Our main theorem is that these ideals are componentwise linear. This result yields a number of corollaries, including the…
Given a Boolean algebra B and an embedding e:B -> P(N)/fin we consider the possibility of extending each or some automorphism of B to the whole P(N)/fin. Among other things, we show, assuming CH, that for a wide class of Boolean algebras…
We restrict our discussion to the orientable category. For $g > 1$, let $OE_g$ be the maximum order of a finite group $G$ acting on the closed surface $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g$ which extends over $(S^3, \Sigma_g)$, where the maximum is taken…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of residue characteristic $p$, $P$ be a parabolic subgroup of $G$, and $R$ be a commutative ring. When $R$ is artinian, $p$ is nilpotent in $R$, and…
We present approximation algorithms with O(n^3) processing time for the minimum vertex and edge guard problems in simple polygons. It is improved from previous O(n^4) time algorithms of Ghosh. For simple polygon, there are O(n^3) visibility…
We show that every small resolution of a three-dimensional terminal hypersurface singularity can occur on a non-embeddable 1-convex manifold. We give an explicit example of a non-embeddable manifold containing an irreducible exceptional…
Let $G$ be a $(C_4, 2K_2)$-free graph with edge ideal $I(G)\subset \Bbbk[x_1,\dots , x_n]$. We show that $I(G)^s$ has linear resolution for every $s\geq 2$. Also, we show that every power of the vertex cover ideal of $G$ has linear…
A Pythagorean n-tuple is an integer solution of x_1^2+...+x_{n-1}^2=x_n^2. For n=4 and n=6, the Pythagorean n-tuples admit a parametrization by a single n-tuple of polynomials with integer coefficients (which is impossible for n=3). For…
It is proved that the chordal variety of the Veronese variety v_d(P^n) is projectively normal, arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay and its homogeneous ideal is generated by the 3 x 3 minors of two catalecticant matrices. These results are…
We investigate the resolution of a general branched cover $\alpha : C \to {\bf P}^1$ in its relative canonical embedding $C \subset {\bf P} E$. We conjecture that the syzygy bundles appearing in the resolution are balanced for a general…
We use an argument of Romans showing that every Virasoro construction leads to realizations of $W_3$, to construct $W_3$ realizations on arbitrary affine Lie algebras. Solutions are presented for generic values of the level as well as for…
