In a recent paper, Dimca and Nemethi pose the problem of finding a homogeneous polynomial f such that the homology of the complement of the hypersurface defined by f is torsion-free, but the homology of the Milnor fiber of f has torsion. We…

Soft solids and their surface deformations control the response of many natural and artificial systems. Yet, their underlying properties are vigorously debated, particularly for polymer networks. While molecular-scale theories predict no…

This paper concerns the homological properties of a module $M$ over a commutative noetherian ring $R$ relative to a presentation $R\cong P/I$, where $P$ is local ring. It is proved that the Betti sequence of $M$ with respect to $P/(f)$ for…

We consider the space of tensor densities on the n-dimensional sphere with degree lambda (or, equivalently, of conformal densities with degree lambda). This space is a module over the group of diffeomorphisms, and consequently over the Lie…

Modular equations occur in number theory, but it is less known that such equations also occur in the study of deformation properties of quasiconformal mappings. The authors study two important plane quasiconformal distortion functions,…

Let $\fa$ be an ideal of a local ring $(R,\fm)$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We investigate the structure of the formal local cohomology modules ${\vpl}_nH^i_{\fm}(M/\fa^n M)$, $i\geq 0$. We prove several results concerning…

We prove that if a local ring admits a (pd-)test module of finite complete intersection dimension, then it is a complete intersection ring. This answers, positively, a question proposed by Celikbas, Dao and Takahashi. To this aim, we first…

Cohen-Macaulayness, unmixedness, the structure of the canonical module and the stability of the Hilbert function of algebraic residual intersections are studied in this paper. Some conjectures about these properties are established for…

We study homological properties of a locally complete intersection ring by importing facts from homological algebra over exterior algebras. One application is showing that the thick subcategories of the bounded derived category of a locally…

We find the current voltage characteristics of a 2DEG-S interface in magnetic field taking into account the surface roughness. Typically in experiments $L/2R_c\gtrsim 3$, where $L$ is the surface length and $R_c$ is the cyclotron radius.…

In a system with long-ranged correlations, the behavior of correlation functions is sensitive to the presence of a boundary. We show that surface deformations strongly modify this behavior as compared to a flat surface. The modified near…

Let $T_R(M)$ be a tensor ring, where $R$ is a ring and $M$ is an $N$-nilpotent $R$-bimodule. Under certain conditions, we characterize the Gorenstein flat-cotorsion modules over $T_R(M)$, showing that a $T_R(M)$-module $(X, u)$ is…

Due to the orbifold singularities, the intersection numbers on the moduli space of curves $\bar{\sM}_{g,n}$ are in general rational numbers rather than integers. We study the properties of the denominators of these intersection numbers and…

In this paper we use a deterministic multi-asperity model to investigate the elastic contact of rough spheres. Synthetic rough surfaces with controllable spectra were used to identify individual asperities, their locations and curvatures.…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring which contains a regular sequence $ \underline{x} = x_1,\ldots,x_d \in \mathfrak{m} \smallsetminus \mathfrak{m}^2 $ such that $ \mathfrak{m}^3 \subseteq (\underline{x}) $. Let $…

Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth connected Riemannian manifold. We show an improvement of flatness theorem for hypersurfaces of $M$ of bounded nonlocal mean curvature in the viscosity sense. It implies local $ C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity of these…

In this note, we give several equivalent characterizations of higher Du Bois and higher rational singularities in the context of globally defined hypersurfaces. As a key input, we characterize these singularities using the Hodge filtration…

We construct an example where a local cohomology module of a hypersurface has p-torsion elements for every prime integer p, and consequently has infinitely many associated prime ideals. We also answer a related question of Hochster.

In this paper, we introduce a natural notion of constant curvature Lorentzian surfaces with conical singularities, and provide a large class of examples of such structures. We moreover initiate the study of their global rigidity, by proving…

We study quadratic moduli schemes $X$ of algebra laws on a fixed vector space $W$ under the transport-of-structure action of $GL(W)$ on $Hom(W^{\otimes 2},W)$. We construct an intrinsic three-term deformation complex on $X$ whose fibers…
