We present a class of lattices in R^d (d >= 2) which we call GL-lattices and conjecture that any lattice is such. This conjecture is referred to as GLC. Littlewood's conjecture amounts to saying that Z^2 is GL. We then prove existence of GL…

The free singularity locus of a noncommutative polynomial f is defined to be the sequence $Z_n(f)=\{X\in M_n^g : \det f(X)=0\}$ of hypersurfaces. The main theorem of this article shows that f is irreducible if and only if $Z_n(f)$ is…

Motivated by a recent paper of G. Gr\"atzer, a finite distributive lattice $D$ is said to be fully principal congruence representable if for every subset $Q$ of $D$ containing $0$, $1$, and the set $J(D)$ of nonzero join-irreducible…

The (matricial) solution set of a Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) is a convex basic non-commutative semi-algebraic set. The main theorem of this paper is a converse, a result which has implications for both semidefinite programming and…

We study the algebras of modular forms on type IV symmetric domains for simple lattices; that is, lattices for which every Heegner divisor occurs as the divisor of a Borcherds product. For every simple lattice $L$ of signature $(n,2)$ with…

In this paper we look at Grothendieck's work on classifying holomorphic bundles over the complex projective line. The paper is divided into $4$ parts. The first and second part we build up the necessary background to talk about vector…

Lurie's representability theorem gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a functor to be an almost finitely presented derived geometric stack. We establish several variants of Lurie's theorem, making the hypotheses easier to verify…

We start by constructing a new root system for rational triple singularities and determine the number of roots for each rational triple singularity. Then we show that, for each root, we obtain a linear free divisor. So we obtain a new…

In this paper, we establish a complete structural description of flat Lorentzian Lie groups, i.e., Lie groups endowed with a flat left invariant Lorentzian metric, thereby resolving a long-standing open problem in the theory of…

We show that if a divisor centered over a point on a smooth surface computes a minimal log discrepancy, then the divisor also computes a log canonical threshold. To prove the result, we study the asymptotic log canonical threshold of the…

Let $R$ be a gcd-domain (for example let $R$ be a unique factorization domain), and let $(a_n)_{n\geqslant1}$ be a sequence of nonzero elements in $R$. We prove that $\gcd(a_n,a_m)=a_{\gcd(n,m)}$ for all $n,m\geqslant1$ if and only if…

Let D be a divisor in a complex analytic manifold X. A natural problem is to determine when the de Rham complex of meromorphic forms on X with poles along D is quasi-isomorphic to its subcomplex of logarithmic forms. In this mostly…

We prove that, under mild restrictions, the space of codimension-one foliations of degree one on a smooth projective complete intersection has two irreducible components of logarithmic type. We also prove that the same conclusion holds for…

We prove that for a normal projective variety $X$ in characteristic 0, and a base-point free ample line bundle $L$ on it, the restriction map of divisor class groups $\Cl(X)\to \Cl(Y)$ is an isomorphism for a general member $Y\in |L|$…

For a semialgebraic set K in R^n, let P_d(K) be the cone of polynomials in R^n of degrees at most d that are nonnegative on K. This paper studies the geometry of its boundary. When K=R^n and d is even, we show that its boundary lies on the…

A 'prehomogeneous vector space' is a rational representation $\rho:G\to\mathrm{GL}(V)$ of a connected complex linear algebraic group $G$ that has a Zariski open orbit $\Omega\subset V$. Mikio Sato showed that the hypersurface components of…

We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the linear independence of solutions of differential equations for hyperlogarithms. The key fact is that the multiplier (i.e. the factor $M$ in the differential equation $dS=MS$) has only…

In this paper, we study a class of generalized intersection matrix Lie algebras $\gim(M_n)$, and prove that its every finite-dimensional semi-simple quotient is of type $M(n,{\bf a}, {\bf c},{\bf d})$. Particularly, any finite dimensional…

In this article we extend the notion of determinantal representation of hypersurfaces to the determinantal representation of sections of the determinant line bundle of a vector bundle. We give several examples, and prove some necessary…

A distributive lattice structure ${\mathbf M}(G)$ has been established on the set of perfect matchings of a plane bipartite graph $G$. We call a lattice {\em matchable distributive lattice} (simply MDL) if it is isomorphic to such a…
