The bicategory $\mathcal{LG}$ of Landau-Ginzburg models has polynomials as objects and matrix factorisations as $1$-morphisms. The composition of these $1$-morphisms produces infinite rank matrix factorisations, which is a nuisance. In this…

For Fano varieties of various singularities such as canonical and terminal, we construct examples with large Fano index. By low-dimensional evidence, we conjecture that our examples have the largest Fano index for all dimensions.

The correspondence between Gorenstein Fano toric varieties and reflexive polytopes has been generalized by Ilten and S\"u{\ss} to a correspondence between Gorenstein Fano complexity-one $T$-varieties and Fano divisorial polytopes. Motivated…

This article characterizes the rank-one factorization of auto-correlation matrix polynomials. We establish a sufficient and necessary uniqueness condition for uniqueness of the factorization based on the greatest common divisor (GCD) of…

In this article, we introduce the $k$-th collineation variety of a third order tensor. This is the closure of the image of the rational map of size $k$ minors of a matrix of linear forms associated to the tensor. We classify such varieties…

We study the real spectrum compactification of character varieties of finitely generated groups in semisimple Lie groups. This provides a compactification with good topological properties, and we interpret the boundary points in terms of…

We construct a singular variety ${\mathcal{V}}_G$ associated to a polynomial mapping $G : \C^{n} \to \C^{n - 1}$ where $n \geq 2$. We prove that in the case $G : \C^{3} \to \C^{2}$, if $G$ is a local submersion but is not a fibration, then…

We show that mixed-characteristic and equi-characteristic small deformations of 3-dimensional canonical (resp. terminal) singularities with perfect residue field of characteristic $p>5$ are canonical (resp. terminal). We discuss…

The classification of Fano varieties is an important open question, motivated in part by the MMP. Smooth Fano varieties have been classified up to dimension three: one interesting feature of this classification is that they can all be…

We determine the number of level 1, polarized, algebraic regular, cuspidal automorphic representations of GL_n over Q of any given infinitesimal character, for essentially all n <= 8. For this, we compute the dimensions of spaces of level 1…

We describe recent progress in a program to understand the classification of three-dimensional Fano varieties with $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial terminal singularities using mirror symmetry. As part of this we give an improved and more conceptual…

We prove rationality criteria over algebraically non-closed fields of characteristic $0$ for five out of six types of geometrically rational Fano threefolds of Picard number $1$ and geometric Picard number bigger than $1$. For the last type…

We study varieties of complexes of projective modules with fixed ranks, and relate these varieties to the varieties of their homologies. We show that for an algebra of global dimension at most two, these two varieties are related by a pair…

In this paper, we classify codimension one foliations on adjoint varieties with most positive anti-canonical class. We show that on adjoint varieties with Picard number one, these foliations are always induced by a pencil of hyperplane…

A collection of n distinct hyperplanes L_i ={l_i=0} in P^{n-1}, the n-1-dimensional projective space over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to 2, is a polar simplex of a quadric Q={q=0}, if each L_i is the polar…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $f_1, \ldots, f_r$ be polynomials in $n^2$ indeterminates over an algebraically closed field $K$. We describe an algorithm to decide if the invertible matrices contained in the variety of $f_1, \ldots,…

In this paper, we give the complete classification of full exceptional collections on smooth toric Fano threefolds and fourfolds with Picard rank two. To be precise, we give a partial answer to the conjecture in \cite{Kuz} and \cite{LYY}:…

We define a certain compactifiction of the general linear group and give a modular description for its points with values in arbitrary schemes. This is a first step in the construction of a higher rank generalization of Gieseker's…

In this article, we give the structure of codimension one foliations with canonical singularities and numerically trivial canonical class on varieties with klt singularities. Building on recent works of Spicer, Cascini - Spicer and Spicer -…

By a tensor we mean an element of a tensor product of vector spaces over a field. Up to a choice of bases in factors of tensor products, every tensor may be coordinatized, that is, represented as an array consisting of numbers. This note is…
