Let $X$ be a cubic surface over a global field $k$. We prove that a Brauer-Manin obstruction to the existence of $k$-points on $X$ will persist over every extension $L/k$ with degree relatively prime to $3$. In other words, a cubic surface…

Green's conjecture is proved for smooth curves C lying on a rational surface S with an anticanonical pencil, under some mild hypotheses on the line bundle L defined by C. Constancy of Clifford dimension, Clifford index and gonality of…

The aim of this article is to prove Bloch's conjecture (asserting that the group of rational equivalence classes of zero cycles of degree zero is trivial) for Inoue surfaces with p_g=0 and K^2 = 7. These surfaces can also be described as…

The classical honeycomb conjecture asserts that any partition of the plane into regions of equal area has perimeter at least that of the regular hexagonal honeycomb tiling. Pappus discusses this problem in his preface to Book V. This paper…

We prove the volume conjecture for any twist knots by using an equivalence relation, complex analysis, analytic continuation, and function of several complex variables on the basis of colored Jones polynomials.

In this paper we prove that any Riemannian surface, with no restriction of curvature at all, can be decomposed into blocks belonging just to some of these types: generalized Y-pieces, generalized funnels and halfplanes.

We give a simple sufficient condition for a spun-normal surface in an ideal triangulation to be incompressible, namely that it is a vertex surface with non-empty boundary which has a quadrilateral in each tetrahedron. While this condition…

We prove the Multiplicity One Conjecture for mean curvature flows of surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Specifically, we show that any blow-up limit of such mean curvature flows has multiplicity one. This has several applications. First, combining…

We prove that the Eaton-Moreto conjecture is true for the principal blocks of the p-solvable groups

In this paper, we establish a Mather-Yau theorem for higher Nash blowup algebras, demonstrating that the isomorphism type of the local ring of any hypersurface singularity, defined over an arbitrary field, is fully determined by its higher…

A well-known conjecture of Caratheodory states that the number of umbilic points on a closed convex surface in ${\mathbb E}^3$ must be greater than one. In this paper we prove this for $C^{3+\alpha}$-smooth surfaces. The Conjecture is first…

The Bounded Negativity Conjecture predicts that for every complex projective surface $X$ there exists a number $b(X)$ such that $C^2\geq -b(X)$ holds for all reduced curves $C\subset X$. For birational surfaces $f:Y\to X$ there have been…

In this paper we study singularities in arbitrary characteristic. We propose Finite Determination Conjecture for Mather-Jacobian minimal log discrepancies in terms of jet schemes of a singularity. The conjecture is equivalent to the…

We prove that the Tate conjecture in codimension $1$ over a finitely generated field follows from the same conjecture for surfaces over its prime subfield. In positive characteristic, this is due to de Jong--Morrow over $\mathbf{F}_p$ and…

It is shown that the strong Atiyah conjecture and the L\"uck approximation conjecture in the space of marked groups hold for locally indicable groups. In particular, this implies that one-relator groups satisfy both conjectures. We also…

We show that the Farrell-Jones Conjecture holds for fundamental groups of graphs of groups with abelian vertex groups. As a special case, this shows that the conjecture holds for generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups.

We investigate the behaviour of the spectrum of the quantum (or Dubrovin) connection of smooth projective surfaces under blow-ups. Our main result is that for small values of the parameters, the quantum spectrum of such a surface is…

A conjecture of Batyrev and Manin predicts the asymptotic behaviour of rational points of bounded height on smooth projective varieties over number fields. We prove some new cases of this conjecture for conic bundle surfaces equipped with…

Poincare had conjectured that the fact that closed loops could be shrunk to points on a surface topologically equivalent to the surface of a sphere can be generalised to three (and more) dimensions. After nearly a century the conjecture has…

A conjecture of Colliot-Th\'{e}l\`{e}ne predicts that for a smooth projective variety $X$ over a finite extension $k$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ the kernel of the Albanese map $\text{CH}_0(X)^{\text{deg}=0}\to Alb_X(k)$ is the direct sum of a…
