We investigate the behaviour of the reduction type and related invariants of curves in families of curves over a discretely valued field. By a family, we will mean a set of curves obtained by perturbing the coefficients of the defining…
Let $X = S \times E$ be the product of a K3 surface $S$ and an elliptic curve $E$. Reduced stable pair invariants of $X$ can be defined via (1) cutting down the reduced virtual class with incidence conditions or (2) the Behrend function…
In this paper we study the reduction of $p$-cyclic covers of the $p$-adic line ramified at exactly four points. For $p=2$ these covers are elliptic curves and Deuring has given a criterion for when such a curve has good reduction. Here we…
This is a condensed exposition of the results of math.QA/0601337, based on a talk of the first author at the Oberwolfach workshop "Deformations and Contractions in Mathematics and Physics", 15-21 January 2006.
In this contribution we present the results of a series of investigations of dimensional reduction, applied to SU(3) gauge theory in 2 + 1 dimensions. We review earlier results, present a new reduced model with Z(3) symmetry, and discuss…
This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to an error in the proof of Lemma 3.9. The correct proof of global stability is given in arXiv:1101.5177
The stationary version of a modified definition of statistical solution for the three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations introduced in a previous work is investigated. Particular types of such stationary statistical…
Raynaud gave a criterion for a branched $G$-cover of curves defined over a mixed-characteristic discretely valued field $K$ with residue characteristic $p$ to have good reduction in the case of either a three-point cover of $\mathbb{P}^1$…
We study the stability of partitions in convex domains involving simultaneous coexistence of three phases, viz. triple junctions. We present a careful derivation of the formula for the second variation of area, written in a suitable form…
In this article we study the pointwise decay properties of solutions to the wave equation on a class of stationary asymptotically flat backgrounds in three space dimensions. Under the assumption that uniform energy bounds and a weak form of…
In this paper, we study stable constant mean curvature $H$ surfaces in $\R^3$. We prove that, in such a surface, the distance from a point to the boundary is less that $\pi/(2H)$. This upper-bound is optimal and is extended to stable…
We study dynamics of area-preserving maps in a neighbourhood of an elliptic fixed point. We describe simplified normal forms for a fixed point of co-dimension 3. We also construct normal forms for a generic three-parameter family which…
In this report, which is an extended version of that appearing in the Proceedings of GR16, I will give a summary of the main topics covered in Session A.3. on mathematical relativity at GR16, Durban. The summary is mainly based on extended…
This survey article is a much extended version of a lecture given at a Clay Institute workshop in October 2006. It describes all known results on the existence of stable coherent systems on algebraic curves.
A branch of generalizations of the Banach Fixed Point Theorem replaces contractivity by a weaker but still effective property. The aim of the present note is to extend the contraction principle in this spirit for such complete semimetric…
We introduce a new technique for proving the classical Stable Manifold theorem for hyperbolic fixed points. This method is much more geometrical than the standard approaches which rely on abstract fixed point theorems. It is based on the…
We improve a bound due to the second author on number of rational points on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ over finite fields and look at families of surfaces that achieve or nearly achieve this bound, for which we compute their exact…
In this paper, we use the Mordukhovich derivatives to precisely find the covering constants for the metric projection operator onto nonempty closed and convex subsets in uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces. We consider three…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the triviality of the considered coordinate transformations. A consistent treatment, based on the extended physical radial coordinate, is presented in the publications of the author 2000 -…
In the present paper, which is a development of an earlier study by the author \cite{Sosnitskii08}, we consider the stability of triangular libration points in the spatial circular restricted three-body problem and improve the result of…
