We characterize the first min-max width of real projective spaces of any dimension. The width is the minimum area over the Clifford hypersurfaces. We also compute the Morse index of the Clifford hypersurfaces in the complex and quaternionic…
We compute the Picard group of the moduli stack of elliptic curves and its canonical compactification over general base schemes.
Let $X$ be a cubic hypersurface in $\mathbb P^6$ or a hypersurface of degree greater than equal to $7$ in $\mathbb P^5$. In this note we try to understand, for a very general hyperplane section of $X$, the non-injectivity locus of the…
There are several Teichm\"uller spaces associated to a surface of infinite topological type, after the choice of a particular basepoint (a complex or a hyperbolic structure on the surface). These spaces include the quasiconformal…
We study necessary conditions on the geometry and the topology of domains in $\mathbb{R}^2$ that support a positive solution to a classical overdetermined elliptic problem. The ideas and tools we use come from constant mean curvature…
The Borcherds Phi-function is the automorphic form on the moduli space of Enriques surfaces characterizing the discriminant locus. In this paper, we give an algebro-geometric construction of the Borcherds Phi-function.
Recent advances in quantitative unique continuation properties for solutions to uniformly elliptic, divergence form equations (with Lipschitz coefficients) has led to a good understanding of the vanishing order and size of singular and zero…
In this article, we will consider second order uniformly elliptic operators of divergence form defined on R^n with measurable coefficients. Mainly, we will give estimates on the dimension of space of solutions that grow at most polynomially…
The Riemann surface for polylogarithms of half-integer index, which has the topology of an infinite dimensional hypercube, is studied in relation to one-dimensional KPZ universality in finite volume. Known exact results for fluctuations of…
Motivated by asymptotic phenomena of moduli spaces of higher rank stable sheaves on algebraic surfaces, we study the Picard number of the moduli space of one-dimensional stable sheaves supported in a sufficiently positive divisor class on a…
We survey the Hilbert geometry of convex polytopes. In particular we present two important characterisations of these geometries, the first one in terms of the volume growth of their metric balls, the second one as a bi-lipschitz class of…
We establish a priori regularity estimates for viscosity solutions of degenerate fully nonlinear elliptic equations with integrable right-hand sides. When the nonhomogeneous term belongs to $L^p$ with $p>n$, we prove optimal interior…
We give a criterion for certain generic nondegenerate surfaces in a fake weighted projective $3$-space to have Picard number $>1$. These algebraic surfaces are of general type. We do this by considering degenerations (along an edge),…
We establish some characterizations of elliptic hyperboloids (resp., ellipsoids) in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space ${\Bbb E}^{n+1}$, using the $n$-dimensional area of the sections cut off by hyperplanes and the $(n+1)$-dimensional…
We investigate complex surfaces that fiber over Teichm\"uller curves where the generic fiber is a Veech surface. When the fiber has genus one, these surfaces are elliptic fibrations; for higher genus fibers, they are typically minimal…
We prove area bounds for planar convex bodies in terms of their number of interior integral points and their lattice width data. As an application, we obtain sharp area bounds for rational polygons with a fixed number of interior integral…
We discuss the bi-Lipschitz geometry of an isolated singular point of a complex surface which particular emphasis on when it is metrically conical.
Let $Z$ be a closed subscheme of a smooth complex projective variety $Y\subseteq \Ps^N$, with $\dim\,Y=2r+1\geq 3$. We describe the intermediate N\'eron-Severi group (i.e. the image of the cycle map $A_r(X)\to H_{2r}(X;\mathbb{Z})$) of a…
Motivated by the relation between (twisted) K3 surfaces and special cubic fourfolds, we construct moduli spaces of polarized twisted K3 surfaces of any fixed degree and order. We do this by mimicking the construction of the moduli space of…
We give a general formula for generators of the NL-cone, the cone of effective linear combinations of irreducible components of Noether-Lefschetz divisors, on an orthogonal modular variety. We then fully describe the NL-cone and its…
