We present bounds for the geometric degree of the tangent bundle and the tangential variety of a smooth affine algebraic variety $V$ in terms of the geometric degree of $V$. We first analyze the case of curves, showing an explicit relation…

We classify simply connected rationally elliptic manifolds of dimension five and those of dimension six with small Betti numbers from the point of view of their rational cohomology structure. We also prove that a geometrically formal…

We use the language of Lie pseudoalgebras to gain information about the representation theory of the simple infinite-dimensional linearly compact Lie superalgebra of exceptional type $E(5,10)$. This technology allows us to prove that the…

We study the notion of duality in the context of graded manifolds. For graded bundles, somehow like in the case of Gelfand representation and the duality: points vs. functions, we obtain natural dual objects which belongs to a different…

In this article, we compute the braid monodromy of two algebraic curves defined over R. These two curves are of complex level not bigger than 6, and they are unions of lines and conics. We use two different techniques for computing their…

We point out a gap in the proof of the Davis--Januszkiewicz theorem on cohomology of small covers of simple polytopes, and give a correction to this proof. We use this theorem to compute explicitly the Betti numbers for a wide class of…

A weight module of a basic Lie superalgebra is called finite if all of its weight spaces are finite dimensional, and it is called bounded if there is a uniform bound on the dimension of a weight space. The minimum bound is called the degree…

We study algebras k[x_1,...,x_n]/I which admit a grading by a subsemigroup of N^d such that every graded component is a one-dimensional k-vector space. V.I.~Arnold and coworkers proved that for d = 1 and n <= 3 there are only finitely many…

We first quantize the Witt algebra in characteristic 0. Then, we consider the reduction modulo p of our formulas. This gives polynomial deformations of the restricted envelopping algebra of the Witt algebra. By this way, we get new families…

An abelian variety admits only a finite number of isomorphism classes of principal polarizations. The paper gives an interpretation of this number in terms of class numbers of definite Hermitian forms in the case of a product of elliptic…

The canonical projections of the unit spheres are generalized to special generic maps and round fold maps, for example. They are generalizations from the viewpoint of singularity theory of differentiable maps and these maps restrict the…

Operators on the ring of algebraically constructible functions are used to compute local obstructions for a four-dimensional semialgebraic set to be homeomorphic to a real algebraic set. The link operator and arithmetic operators yield…

We propose a framework to give a precise meaning to the intuitive notion of "family of real forms of a variety parametrised by a variety" and study some fundamental properties of this notion. As an illustration, for any $n \geq 1$, we…

Let f: M -> N be an even codimensional immersion between smooth manifolds. We derive an explicit formula for the Pontrjagin numbers and signature of the multiple point manifolds in terms of singular cohomology of M and N, the maps induced…

We construct a Boutet de Monvel calculus for general pseudodifferential boundary value problems defined on a broad class of non-compact manifolds, the class of so-called Lie manifolds with boundary. It is known that this class of…

We compute the Hodge polynomials for the moduli space of representations of an elliptic curve with two marked points into SL(2,C). When we fix the conjugacy classes of the representations around the marked points to be diagonal and of…

An involution of a real commutative algebra $A$ is a real-linear homomorphism $f : A \rightarrow A$ such that $f^2 = \mathrm{Id}$. We show that there are six involutions of the algebra of bicomplex numbers, contrary to the actual number of…

We give an exact formula for the dimension of the variety of homomorphisms from $S_g$ to $\mathit{any}$ semisimple real algebraic group, where $S_g$ is a surface group of genus $g \geq 2$.

In this paper we study some algebraic properties of hypergraphs, in particula their Betti numbers. We define some different types of complete hypergraphs, which to the best of our knowledge, are not previously considered in the literature.…

In this paper we consider finite 2-groups with odd number of real conjugacy classes. On one hand we show that if $k$ is an odd natural number less than 24, then there are only finitely many finite 2-groups with exactly $k$ real conjugacy…
