I prove three classification results about harmonic morphisms whose fibers have dimension one. All are valid when the domain is at least of dimension 4. (The character of this overdetermined problem is very different when the dimension of…

There are several topological spaces associated to a complex hyperplane arrangement: the complement and its boundary manifold, as well as the Milnor fiber and its own boundary. All these spaces are related in various ways, primarily by a…

We study the lightlike foliations that appear on Lorentzian manifolds with weakly irreducible not irreducible holonomy algebra. We give global structure equations for the foliation that generalize the Gauss and Weingarten equations for one…

We prove birational superrigidity of Fano double hypersurfaces of index one with quadratic and multi-quadratic singularities, satisfying certain regularity conditions, and give an effective explicit lower bound for the codimension of the…

We study the existence problem and the enumeration problem for sections of Serre fibrations over compact orientable surfaces. When the fundamental group of the fiber is finite, a complete solution is given in terms of 2-dimensional…

We prove results on fibers of polynomial mappings Rn ! Rn and deduce when such mappings are surjective under certain conditions.

We prove height bounds concerning intersections of finitely generated subgroups in a torus with algebraic subvarieties, all varying in a pencil. This vastly extends the previously treated constant case and involves entirely different, and…

This is the first in a series of papers about foliations in derived geometry. After introducing derived foliations on arbitrary derived stacks, we concentrate on quasi-smooth and rigid derived foliations on smooth complex algebraic…

We give a topological model for a polynomial map from $\C^n$ to $\C$ in the neighborhood of a fiber with isolated singularities. This is motivated out of the ``unfolding of links'' described earlier by the first author and Lee Rudolph. The…

We study Levi-flat real analytic hypersurfaces with singularities. We prove that the Levi foliation on the regular part of the hypersurface can be holomorphically extended, in a suitable sense, to neighbourhoods of singular points.

Given a polynomial P in several variables over an algebraically closed field, we show that except in some special cases that we fully describe, if one coefficient is allowed to vary, then the polynomial is irreducible for all but at most…

We give a lower bound for the degree of a finite cover of a hyperbolic 3-manifold which fibers over the circle, in terms of volume, the diameter of the manifold and other new invariants.

In this paper we study projective flat deformations of projective spaces. We prove that the singular fibers of projective flat deformations of projective spaces appear either in codimension 1 or over singular points of the base. We also…

Let $F$ be a one-dimensional holomorphic foliation on $\mathbb{P}^n$ such that $W\subset Sing(F)$, where $W$ is a smooth complete intersection variety. We determine and compute the variation of the Milnor number $ \mu(F, W)$ under blowups,…

We present a new list of irreducible components for the space of k-dimensional holomorphic foliations on $\mathbb P^{n}$, $n\geq3$, $k\ge2$. They are associated to pull-back of dimension one foliations on $\mathbb P^{n-k+1}$ by non-linear…

Given a geometrically irreducible subscheme X in P^n over F_q of dimension at least 2, we prove that the fraction of degree d hypersurfaces H such that the intersection of H and X is geometrically irreducible tends to 1 as d tends to…

We study holomorphic foliations with an affine homogeneous transverse structure. We give a friendly characterization of the case of transversely affine foliations in terms of matrix valued pairs of differential forms. This leads naturally…

We establish a sharp geometric constant for the upper bound on the resonance counting function for surfaces with hyperbolic ends. An arbitrary metric is allowed within some compact core, and the ends may be of hyperbolic planar, funnel, or…

Let $X$ be an analytic subset of an open neighbourhood $U$ of the origin $\underline{0}$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Let $f\colon (X,\underline{0}) \to (\mathbb{C},0)$ be holomorphic and set $V =f^{-1}(0)$. Let $\B_\epsilon$ be a ball in $U$ of…

The complement of a hyperplane arrangement in the complex projective space is known to be formal. We prove the global Milnor fiber associated to the homogeneous polynomial defining the arrangement may not even be 1-formal, by giving an…
