An orthogonal bundle over a curve has an isotropic Segre invariant determined by the maximal degree of a Lagrangian subbundle. This invariant, and the induced stratifications on moduli spaces of orthogonal bundles, were studied for bundles…

In characteristic zero, semistable principal bundles on a nonsingular projective curve with a semisimple structure group form a bounded family, as shown by Ramanathan in 1970's using the Narasimhan-Seshadri theorem. This was the first step…

We study asymptotic behavior of the stability thresholds of a big line bundle, and prove explicit bounds on the error terms. This answers Jin--Rubinstein--Tian's questions affirmatively. A key step in our proof is to show that the stability…

The scalars of an N = 1 supersymmetric sigma-model in 4 dimensions parameterize a Kaehler manifold. The transformations of their fermionic superpartners under the isometries are often anomalous. These anomalies can be canceled by…

It is shown that the singular set for the Yang-Mills flow on unstable holomorphic vector bundles over compact Kaehler manifolds is completely determined by the Harder-Narasimhan-Seshadri filtration of the initial holomorphic bundle. We…

Let Gr(2, E) be the Grassmann bundle of two-planes associated to a general bundle E over a curve X. We prove that an embedding of Gr(2, E) by a certain twist of the relative Pl\"ucker map is not secant defective. This yields a new and more…

Let $f:X\to S$ be an extremal contraction from a threefolds with terminal singularities onto a surface (so called Mori conic bundle). We study some particular cases of such contractions: quotients of usual conic bundles and index two…

We propose and study a generalization to the well-known problem of polyline simplification. Instead of a single polyline, we are given a set of $\ell$ polylines possibly sharing some line segments and bend points. Our goal is to minimize…

Beam stability is an essential requirement for particle accelerators. Longitudinal coupled-bunch instabilities (CBI) are driven by beam interaction with long-range wakefields induced in the resonant structures with narrow-band impedance.…

Experiments and global linear stability analysis are used to obtain the critical flow rate below which the highly stretched capillary jet generated when a Newtonian liquid issues from a vertically oriented tube, is no longer steady. The…

In this paper, we associate an invariant $\alpha_{x}(L)$ to an algebraic point $x$ on an algebraic variety $X$ with an ample line bundle $L$. The invariant $\alpha$ measures how well $x$ can be approximated by rational points on $X$, with…

We study relatively semi-stable vector bundles and their moduli on non-K\"ahler principal elliptic bundles over compact complex manifolds of arbitrary dimension. The main technical tools used are the twisted Fourier-Mukai transform and a…

Let $E$ be a vector bundle over a smooth curve $C$, and $S = \mathbb{P} E$ the associated projective bundle. We describe the inflectional loci of certain projective models $\psi \colon S \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$ in terms of Quot…

We formulate a notion of jet bundles over a possibly noncommutative algebra $A$ equipped with a torsion free connection. Among the conditions needed for 3rd-order jets and above is that the connection also be flat and its `generalised…

We show that for any weakly convergent sequence of ergodic $SL_2(\mathbb{R})$-invariant probability measures on a stratum of unit-area translation surfaces, the corresponding Siegel-Veech constants converge to the Siegel-Veech constant of…

We study the problem of extension of normal jets from a hypersurface, with focus on the growth order of the constant. Using aspects of the standard, twisted approach for $L^2$ extension and of the new approach to $L^2$ extension introduced…

We describe recent work on the arithmetic properties of moduli spaces of stable vector bundles and stable parabolic bundles on a curve over a global field. In particular, we describe a connection between the period-index problem for Brauer…

This is an incomplete attempt to show that the upper bound of $\lesssim n^\frac{4}{3}$ on the number unit distances determined by a large finite set of $n$ points in the plane is not sharp. The methods also say something about sets of $n$…

We study the dimension of loci of special line bundles on stable curves and for a fixed semistable multidegree. In case of total degree $d = g - 1$, we characterize when the effective locus gives a Theta divisor. In case of degree $g - 2$…

Fix a Chern character of a stable sheaf on the plane. Assume either the rank is at most 6 or the rank and first Chern class are coprime and the discriminant is sufficiently large. We use recent results of Bayer and Macri on Bridgeland…
