We prove that the monodromy of an irreducible cohomologically complex rigid local system with finite determinant and quasi-unipotent local monodromies at infinity on a smooth quasiprojective complex variety $X$ is integral. This answers…

Let L be a countable and locally finite CW complex. Suppose that the class of all metrizable compacta of extension dimension not greater than L contains a universal element which is an absolute extensor in dimension L. Our main result shows…

We consider convex sets and functions over idempotent semifields, like the max-plus semifield. We show that if $K$ is a conditionally complete idempotent semifield, with completion $\bar{K}$, a convex function $K^n\to\bar{K}$ which is lower…

In a metric space, such as the real numbers with their standard metric, a set A is open if and only if no sequence with terms outside of A has a limit inside A. Moreover, a metric space is compact if and only if every sequence has a…

A vector bundle E on a projective variety X is called finite if it satisfies a nontrivial polynomial equation with integral coefficients. A theorem of Nori implies that E is finite if and only if the pullback of E to some finite etale…

We show that every orbispace satisfying certain mild hypotheses has 'enough' vector bundles. It follows that the K-theory of finite rank vector bundles on such orbispaces is a cohomology theory. Global presentation results for smooth…

We show that given a simple abelian variety $A$ and a normal variety $V$ defined over a finitely generated field $K$ of characteristic zero, the set of non-constant morphisms $V \to A$ satisfying certain tangency conditions imposed by a…

A compactness theorem is proved for a family of K\"{a}hler surfaces with constant scalar curvature and volume bounded from below, diameter bounded from above, Ricci curvature bounded and the signature bounded from below. Furthermore, a…

Let X be a normal connected complex algebraic variety equipped with a semisimple complex representation of its fundamental group. Then, under a maximality assumption, we prove that the covering space of X associated to the kernel of the…

Let $K$ be a countable field. Then $K$ is large in the sense of Pop if and only if it admits a field topology which is "generalized t-henselian" (gt-henselian) in the sense of Dittmann, Walsberg, and Ye, meaning that the implicit function…

A digraph is semicomplete if any two vertices are connected by at least one arc and is locally semicomplete if the out-neighbourhood (resp. in-neighbourhood) of any vertex induces a semicomplete digraph. In this paper, we characterize all…

We prove that if K is an infinite stable field whose generic type has weight 1 then K is separably closed. We also obtain partial results when the generic of K has finite weight and when K is strongly stable.

A Tychonoff space $X$ is called $\kappa$-pseudocompact if for every continuous mapping $f$ of $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^\kappa$ the image $f(X)$ is compact. This notion generalizes pseudocompactness and gives a stratification of spaces lying…

An abelian variety over a field K is said to have big monodromy, if the image of the Galois representation on l-torsion points, for almost all primes l contains the full symplectic group. We prove that all abelian varieties over a finitely…

We prove that the Smyth powerspace Q(X) of a topological space X is core-compact if and only if X is locally compact. As a straightforward consequence we obtain that the Smyth powerspace construction does not preserve core-compactness…

A topological space (not necessarily simply connected) is said to have finite homotopy rank-sum if the sum of the ranks of all higher homotopy groups (from the second homotopy group onward) is finite. In this article, we characterize the…

We show that if the automorphism group of a projective variety is torsion, then it is finite. Motivated by Lang's conjecture on rational points of hyperbolic varieties, we use this to prove that a projective variety with only finitely many…

Given a period map defined over a quasi-projective variety, we construct a completion with rich geometric and Hodge-theoretic meaning. This result may be regarded as an analog of Mumford's toroidal compactification for locally symmetric…

For all simple and finite extension of a valued field, we prove that its defect is the product of the effective degrees of the complete set of key polynomials associated. As a consequence, we obtain a local uniformization theorem for…

There are different definitions of homological dimension of metric compacta involving either \v{C}ech homology or exact (Steenrod) homology. In this paper we investigate the relation between these homological dimensions with respect to…
