I extend the framework of rigid analytic geometry to the setting of algebraic geometry relative to monoids, and study the associated notions of separated, proper, and overconvergent morphisms. The category of affine manifolds embeds as a…

We prove a factorizable version of the Feigin-Frenkel theorem on the center of the completed enveloping algebra of the affine Kac-Moody algebra attached to a simple Lie algebra at the critical level. On any smooth curve C we consider a…

We develop general foundations of topological algebra over a linearly topologized ring k in a format applicable to both formal schemes and analytic adic spaces. We are especially interested in determining exact closed tensor categories of…

Associated to each irreducible crystallographic root system $\Phi$, there is a certain cell complex structure on the torus obtained as the quotient of the ambient space by the coroot lattice of $\Phi$. This is the Steinberg torus. A main…

We introduce the class of weakly log canonical singularities, a natural generalization of semi-log canonical singularities. Toric varieties (associated to toric face rings, possibly non-normal or reducible) which have weakly (semi-) log…

We introduce a quantization of the graded algebra of functions on the canonical cone of an algebraic curve C, based on the theory of formal pseudodifferential operators. When C is a complex curve with Poincar\'e uniformization, we propose…

The study of rational conformal field theories in the moduli space is of particular interest since these theories correspond to points in moduli space where the algebraic and arithmetic structure are usually richer, while also being points…

We show that if $X$ is a smooth Fano manifold which caries a K\"ahler Ricci soliton, then the canonical cone of the product of $X$ with a complex projective space of sufficiently large dimension is a Calabi--Yau cone. This can be seen as an…

Let R be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring possessing a canonical module. In this paper we consider when the maximal ideal of R is self-dual, i.e. it is isomorphic to its canonical dual as an R-module. local rings satisfying this condition are…

We apply a Mayer-Vietoris sequence argument to identify the Atiyah-Segal equivariant complex K-theory rings of certain toric varieties with rings of integral piecewise Laurent polynomials on the associated fans. We provide necessary and…

The goal of the present paper is to provide a mathematically rigorous foundation to certain aspects of rational orbifold conformal field theory, in other words the theory of rational vertex operator algebras and their automorphisms. Under a…

The goal of this paper is to show that the local Gr\"obner fan is a polyhedral fan for ideals in the ring of power series and the homogenized ring of analytic differential operators. We will also discuss about relations between the local…

We construct an explicit Deligne - Du Bois complex for algebraic varieties which are locally analytically isomorphic to the spectrum of a toric face ring.

The main invariant to study the combinatorics of a simplicial complex $K$ is the associated face ring or Stanley-Reisner algebra. Reisner respectively Stanley explained in which sense Cohen-Macaulay and Gorenstein properties of the face…

In this survey article we present several new developments of `toric topology' concerning the cohomology of face rings (also known as Stanley-Reisner algebras). We prove that the integral cohomology algebra of the moment-angle complex Z_K…

We study the $g$-fan associated with a skew-symmetrizable matrix in the sense of cluster algebras. We show that a skew-symmetrizable matrix is of finite type if and only if its $g$-fan is complete; equivalently (as we show), its support…

We prove that the Fano variety of lines of a generic cubic fourfold containing a plane is isomorphic to a moduli space of twisted stable complexes on a K3 surface. On the other hand, we show that the Fano varieties are always birational to…

Rigidity results are obtained for Riemannian $d$-manifolds with $\sec \geqslant 1$ and spherical rank at least $d-2>0$. Conjecturally, all such manifolds are locally isometric to a round sphere or complex projective space with the…

In 2002, Alexeev provided a modular interpretation for the toroidal compactification of $A_g$ for the 2nd Voronoi fan. In this paper we show that pairs $(X,\Theta)$ in the boundary of this moduli space are semi-log canonical, the analog of…

We prove that special ample line bundles on toric varieties arising from root systems are projectively normal. Here the maximal cones of the fans correspond to the Weyl chambers, and special means that the bundle is torus-equivariant such…
