Using the Kodaira dimension and the fundamental group of X, we succeed in classifying algebraic surfaces which are dominable by C^2 except for certain cases in which X is an algebraic surface of Kodaira dimension zero and the case when X is…

We study intersection theoretic problems in the setting of Chow-Witt groups with coefficients in a fixed Milnor-Witt cycle algebra over a perfect field. We prove that the product maps on such groups satisfy the following property: given two…

We prove that if a linear equation, whose coefficients are continuous rational functions on a nonsingular real algebraic surface, has a continuous solution, then it also has a continuous rational solution. This is known to fail in higher…

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the good reduction of Kummer surfaces attached to abelian surfaces with non-supersingular reduction when the residue field is perfect of characteristic 2. In this case, good reduction with…

Deformations of the canonical spectral triples over the n-dimensional torus are considered. These deformations have a discrete dimension spectrum consisting of non-integer values less than n. The differential algebra corresponding to these…

We classify simply-connected, complete Willmore surfaces with vanishing Gaussian curvature. We also study the Willmore cones and give a classification. As an application, we give a Bernstein-type theorem.

We shall prove a new non-vanishing theorem for the stable cohomotopy Seiberg-Witten invariant of connected sums of 4-manifolds with positive first Betti number. The non-vanishing theorem enables us to find many new examples of 4-manifolds…

We propose and discuss how basic notions (quadratic modules, positive elements, semialgebraic sets, Archimedean orderings) and results (Positivstellensaetze) from real algebraic geometry can be generalized to noncommutative $*$-algebras. A…

We study negative curves on surfaces obtained by blowing up special configurations of points in the complex projective palne. Our main results concern the following configurations: very general points on a cubic, 3-torsion points on an…

In this paper we will think of certain abelian categories with favorable properties as non-commutative surfaces. We show that under certain conditions a point on a non-commutative surface can be blown up. This yields a new non-commutative…

We give a criterion under which one can obtain a good decomposition (in the sense of Malgrange) of a formal flat connection on a complex analytic or algebraic variety of arbitrary dimension. The criterion is stated in terms of the spectral…

In this paper we extend Efimov's Theorem by proving that any complete surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with Gauss curvature bounded above by a negative constant outside a compact set has finite total curvature, finite area and is properly…

Nonvanishing theorems play a central role in birational geometry, since they derive geometric consequences from numerical information and constitute a crucial step towards abundance and semiampleness problems. General nonvanishing…

Using the gauge theoretic approach for Lie applicable surfaces, we characterise certain subclasses of surfaces in terms of polynomial conserved quantities. These include isothermic and Guichard surfaces of conformal geometry and…

In this paper, we clarify the mistakes made in the former article entitled "Vanishing Theorems on Toric Varieties in Positive Characteristic". On the other hand, we use the positive characteristic method to reprove the Bott vanishing…

We construct examples of projective toric surfaces whose blow-up at a general point has a non-polyhedral pseudo-effective cone, both in characteristic $0$ and in every prime characteristic $p$. As a consequence, we prove that the…

Many questions in number theory concern the nonvanishing of determinants of square matrices of logarithms (complex or p-adic) of algebraic numbers. We present a new conjecture that states that if such a matrix has vanishing determinant,…

The nonvanishing problem asks if a coefficient of a polynomial is nonzero. Many families of polynomials in algebraic combinatorics admit combinatorial counting rules and simultaneously enjoy having saturated Newton polytopes (SNP). Thereby,…

We consider rational surfaces $Z$ defined by divisorial valuations $\nu$ of Hirzebruch surfaces. We introduce the concepts of non-positivity and negativity at infinity for these valuations and prove that these concepts admit nice local and…

We consider a family of slightly extended version of the Raynaud's surfaces X over the field of positive characteristic with Mumford-Szpiro type polarizations Z, which have Kodaira non-vanishing H^1(X, Z^{-1})\ne 0. The surfaces are at…
