We generalize some characterizations of uniformly rectifiable (UR) sets to sets whose Hausdorff content is lower regular (and in particular, do not need to be Ahlfors regular). For example, David and Semmes showed that, given an Ahlfors…

This paper concerns obstruction flatness of hypersurfaces $\Sigma$ that arise as unit sphere bundles $S(E)$ of Griffiths negative Hermitian vector bundles $(E, h)$ over K\"ahler manifolds $(M, g).$ We prove that if the curvature of $(E, h)$…

Let $G$ be a unipotent group over a field of characteristic $p > 0$. The theory of character sheaves on $G$ was initiated by V. Drinfeld and developed jointly with D. Boyarchenko. They also introduced the notion of $\mathbb{L}$-packets of…

We prove the existence of a Quillen Flat Model Structure in the category of unbounded complexes of h-unitary modules over a nonunital ring (or a $k$-algebra, with $k$ a field). This model structure provides a natural framework where a…

We identify a class of "quasi-compact semi-separated" (qcss) twisted presheaves of algebras A for which well-behaved Grothendieck abelian categories of quasi-coherent modules Qch(A) are defined. This class is stable under algebraic…

We construct explicit geometric models for moduli spaces of semi-stable strongly parabolic Higgs bundles over the Riemann sphere, in the case of rank two, four marked points, arbitrary degree, and arbitrary weights. The mechanism of…

Let $R$ be a hypersurface in an equicharacteristic or unramified regular local ring. For a pair of modules $(M,N)$ over $R$ we study applications of rigidity of $\Tor^R(M,N)$, based on ideas by Huneke, Wiegand and Jorgensen. We then focus…

Let $L$ be a negative holomorphic line bundle over an $(n-1)$-dimensional complex torus $D$. Let $h$ be a Hermitian metric on $L$ such that the curvature form of the dual Hermitian metric defines a flat K\"ahler metric on $D$. Then $h$ is…

Equivariant localization expresses global invariants in terms of local invariants, and many of them appearing in equivariant index theory, (holomorphic) Morse theory, geometric quantization and supersymmetric localization can be…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. Given a big cohomology class $\{\theta\}$, there is a natural equivalence relation on the space of $\theta$-psh functions giving rise to $\mathcal S(X,\theta)$, the space of singularity types of…

Supersymmetric D-branes supported on the complex two-dimensional base $S$ of the local Calabi-Yau threefold $K_S$ are described by semi-stable coherent sheaves on $S$. Under suitable conditions, the BPS indices counting these objects (known…

In this paper, we consider {\em mixed curvature} $\mathcal{C}_{\alpha,\beta}$ for Hermitian manifolds, which is a convex combination of the first Chern Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature introduced by Chu-Lee-Tam…

Given a quasi-projective scheme M over complex numbers equipped with a perfect obstruction theory and a morphism to a nonsingular quasi-projective variety B, we show it is possible to find an affine bundle M'/ M that admits a perfect…

We characterize the normal operators $A$ on $\ell^2$ and the elements $a^i \in \ell^2$, with $1\le i\le m$, such that the sequence $$\{ A^n a^1 , \ldots , A^n a^m \}_{n\ge 0}$$ is a frame. The characterization makes strong use of the…

We show how to construct an N=1 superconformal vertex algebra (SCVA) from any Riemannian manifold. When the Riemannian manifold has special holonomy groups, we discuss the extended supersymmetry. When the manifold is complex or K\"{a}hler,…

We study Severi type inequalities for big line bundles on irregular varieties via cohomological rank functions. We show that these Severi type inequalities on an irregular variety $X$ are related to some natural defined birational…

Any $\mathbb{N}$-graded commutative Gorenstein ring $R$ of Krull dimension one with $R_0$ a field admits a standard silting object $V$ in the stable category $\underline{\mathrm{CM}}_0^{\mathbb{Z}}R$, and the object $V$ is tilting if and…

We prove a higher weight general Gross--Zagier formula for CM cycles on Kuga--Sato varieties over modular curves of arbitrary levels. To formulate and prove this result, we prove several results on the modularity of CM cycles, in the sense…

We prove an arithmetic Hilbert-Samuel type theorem for semi-positive singular hermitian line bundles of finite height. In particular, the theorem applies to the log-singular metrics of Burgos-Kramer-K\"uhn. Our theorem is thus suitable for…

We study certain mild degenerations of algebraic varieties which appear in the analysis of a large class of supersymmetric theories, including superstring theory. We analyze Witten's sigma-model and find that the non-transversality of the…
