This work is dedicated to a new completely algebraic approach to Arakelov geometry, which doesn't require the variety under consideration to be generically smooth or projective. In order to construct such an approach we develop a theory of…
This text arises from teaching advanced undergraduate courses in differential topology for the master curriculum in Mathematics at the University of Pisa. So it is mainly addressed to motivated and collaborative master undergraduate…
These condensed notes treat some basic notions in Tropical Geometry (varieties, cycles, modifications, equivalence). These topics are to be extended, illustrated and included to the upcoming book project…
We survey recent results about the Torelli question for holomorphic-symplectic varieties. Following are the main topics. A Hodge theoretic Torelli theorem. A study of the subgroup W, of the isometry group of the weight 2 Hodge structure,…
These are lecture notes from the conference Arithmetic Topology at the Pacific Institute of Mathematical Sciences on applications of Morel's A1-degree to questions in enumerative geometry. Additionally, we give a new dynamic interpretation…
This is a survey article written for the proceedings of the special year in several complex variables, 1995-1996, at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in Berkeley.
This article extends the main results of the publication arXiv:2001.01312 to the case of a twisted groupoid. More precisely, it gives a decomposition of the C*-algebra of a twisted locally compact groupoid with Haar system in presence of a…
We survey the classical results of the Dirichlet Approximation Theorem.
We investigate the global variation of moduli of linear sections of a general hypersurface. We prove a "generic Torelli" result for a large proportion of cases, and we obtain a complete picture of the global variation of moduli of line…
These notes contain a survey of some aspects of the theory of graded differential algebras and of noncommutative differential calculi as well as of some applications connected with physics. They also give a description of several new…
This is an expository paper on the subject of the title. It assumes basic scheme theory, commutative and homological algebra.
A differential algebra of nonlinear generalized functions is presented as a tool for a wide range of nonsmooth nonlinear problems. The power of the differential algebra is used to do mathematical calculations or proofs; then the final…
We give a brief survey of some of the geometry of mirror symmetry, written in 2004 for the "Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Physics". Probably a little bit out of date now in a few places, but hey.
These lecture notes are based on an introductory course given by the author at the summer school "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry" at MSRI in June 2012. The emphasis throughout is on examples to illustrate the many different facets of…
Based on methods of structural convergence we provide a unifying view of local-global convergence, fitting to model theory and analysis. The general approach outlined here provides a possibility to extend the theory of local-global…
This paper is based on Wald Lectures given at the annual meeting of the IMS in Minneapolis during August 2005. It is a survey of the theory of large deviations.
We extend the theory of fields/distributions developed the paper "A Feigin-Frenkel theorem with n singularities" to a general base scheme. In order to do so we introduce suitable notions of topological sheaves on schemes and study their…
These Lectures are based on a course on noncommutative geometry given by the author in 2003 at the University of Chicago. The lectures contain some standard material, such as Poisson and Gerstenhaber algebras, deformations, Hochschild…
This text is written for the volume of the school/conference "Noncommutative Geometry 2005" held at IPM Tehran. It gives a survey of methods and results in noncommutative geometry, based on a discussion of significant examples of…
Toroidal Lie algebras are generalizations of affine Lie algebras. In 1990, Moody, Rao and Yokonuma gave a presentation for untwisted toroidal Lie algebras. In this paper we give a presentation for the twisted toroidal Lie algebras of type…
