We propose a new collapsing mechanism for $G_2$-metrics, with the generic region admitting a circle bundle structure over a K3 fibration over a Riemann surface. The adiabatic description involves a weighted version of the maximal…
Let $k$ be a global field and $\mathbb{A}_k$ be its ring of adeles. Let $\ell$ be a prime number and fix a field isomorphism from $\mathbb{C}$ to $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_{\ell}$. Let $\Pi_1$ and $\Pi_2$ be cuspidal automorphic…
We consider four long-standing Rigidity Conjectures about synchrony and phase patterns for hyperbolic periodic orbits of admissible ODEs for networks. Proofs of stronger local versions of these conjectures, published in 2010-12, are now…
In this paper we present a rigidity theorem for locally isometric hypersurfaces with a curvature restriction in de Sitter space. This is an analogue to the case for Riemannian space forms given by Guan and Shen in [5].
We prove that any isomorphism $\theta:M_0\simeq M$ of group measure space II$_1$ factors, $M_0=L^\infty(X_0, \mu_0) \rtimes_{\sigma_0} G_0$, $M=L^\infty(X, \mu) \rtimes_{\sigma} G$, with $G_0$ containing infinite normal subgroups with the…
We study the moduli of G-local systems on smooth but not necessarily proper complex algebraic varieties. We show that, when suitably considered as derived algebraic stacks, they carry natural Poisson structures, generalizing the well known…
Let $X$ be a smooth complex quasi-projective variety that is special in the sense of Campana. We prove that the monodromy group of any complex local system on $X$ is virtually nilpotent of class at most $2$. This result sharply refines a…
We show the rigid singularity theorem, that is, a globally hyperbolic spacetime satisfying the strong energy condition and containing past trapped sets, either is timelike geodesically incomplete or splits isometrically as space $\times$…
Motivated by Simpson's conjecture on the motivicity of rigid irreducible connections, Esnault and Groechenig demonstrated that the mod-$p$ reductions of such connections on smooth projective varieties have nilpotent $p$-curvatures. In this…
We introduce a notion of rigid local system on the comple- ment of a plane curve $Y$, which relies on a canonical Waldhausen de- composition of the Milnor sphere associated to $Y$. We show that when $Y$ is weigthed homogeneous this notion…
We discuss the local dynamics of a subgroup of Diff(C^2,0) possessing locally discrete orbits as well as the structure of the recurrent set for more general groups. It is proved, in particular, that a subgroup of Diff(C^2,0) possessing…
Choice of an appropriate (3+1)-foliation of spacetime or a (2+1)-foliation of the Cauchy space, leads often to a substantial simplification of various mathematical problems in General Relativity Theory. We propose a new method to construct…
We study the quasi-local masses arising in general relativity using spinors and prove their positivity property. This leads to the question of a pure quasi-local proof of the positivity of the Wang-Yau \cite{yau} quasi-local mass. More…
We prove combinatorial rigidity of infinitely renormalizable unicritical polynomials, P_c :z \mapsto z^d+c, with complex c, under the a priori bounds and a certain "combinatorial condition". This implies the local connectivity of the…
We examine the generic local and global rigidity of various graphs in R^d. Bruce Hendrickson showed that some necessary conditions for generic global rigidity are (d+1)-connectedness and generic redundant rigidity and hypothesized that they…
We prove a number field analogue of W. M. Schmidt's conjecture on the intersection of weighted badly approximable vectors and use this to prove an instance of a conjecture of An, Guan and Kleinbock. Namely, let $G := SL_2(\mathbb{R}) \times…
Let $X$ be a cubic fourfold in $P^5_{C}$. We prove that, assuming the Hodge conjecture for the product $S \times S$, where $S$ is a complex surface, and the finite dimensionality of the Chow motive $h(S)$, there are at most a countable…
We review some recent results and conjectures saying that, roughly speaking, periodic cyclic homology of a smooth non-commutative algebraic variety should carry all the additional "motivic" structures possessed by the usual de Rham…
We present several rigidity results for initial data sets motivated by the positive mass theorem. An important step in our proofs here is to establish conditions that ensure that a marginally outer trapped surface is "weakly outermost". A…
We give a framework to produce constructible functions from natural functors between categories, without need of a morphism of moduli spaces to model the functor. We show using the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence that any natural (derived)…
