Deligne's regularity criterion for an integrable connection $\nabla$ on a smooth complex algebraic variety $X$ says that $\nabla$ is regular along the irreducible divisors at infinity in some fixed normal compactification of $X$ if and only…

Over a connected geometrically unibranch scheme $X$ of finite type over a finite field, we show finiteness of the number of irreducible $\bar \Q_\ell$-lisse sheaves, with bounded rank and bounded ramification in the sense of Drinfeld, up to…

Deligne's celebrated "Riemann--Hilbert correspondence" relates representations of the fundamental group of a smooth complex algebraic variety and regular-singular integrable connections. In this work, we show how to arrive at a similar…

In this note, we establish sharp regularity for solutions to the following generalized $p$- Poisson equation $$-\ div\ \big(\langle A\nabla u,\nabla u\rangle^{\frac{p-2}{2}}A\nabla u\big)=-\ div\ \mathbf{h}+f$$ in the plane (i.e. in…

We give an algebraic and a geometric criterion for the existence of $G$-connections on $\mathbb{P}^{1}$ with prescribed irregular type with equal slope at $\infty$ (isoclinic) and with regular singularity of prescribed residue at $0$. The…

In this article we prove existence, uniqueness and regularity for the singular equation \begin{eqnarray*} \begin{cases} |\nabla u|^{\alpha}(F(D^{2}u)+h(x)\cdot\nabla u)+c(x)|u|^{\alpha}u+p(x)u^{-\gamma}=0 \ \mbox{ in } \ \Omega\\ u>0 \…

The classical additive Deligne-Simpson problem is the existence problem for Fuchsian connections with residues at the singular points in specified adjoint orbits. Crawley-Boevey found the solution in 2003 by reinterpreting the problem in…

We give a novel and effective criterion for algebraicity of rational normal analytic surfaces constructed from resolving the singularity of an irreducible curve-germ on $CP^2$ and contracting the strict transform of a given line and all but…

This paper, a culmination of the authors' theory of the RT-equations, accomplishes the following: (i) We discover there is a true (geometric) regularity associated with every affine connection, its ``essential regularity'', the highest…

We consider fibrations by affine lines on smooth affine surfaces obtained as complements of smooth rational curves $B$ in smooth projective surfaces $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We observe that…

Let W -> X be a real smooth projective threefold fibred by rational curves. Koll\'ar proved that if W(R) is orientable a connected component N of W(R) is essentially either a Seifert fibred manifold or a connected sum of lens spaces. Let k…

Let f: Y -> CP^2 be a birational morphism of non-singular (rational) surfaces. We give an effective (necessary and sufficient) criterion for algebraicity of the surfaces resulting from contraction of the union of the strict transform of a…

We classify all complex surfaces with quotient singularities that do not contain any smooth rational curves, under the assumption that the canonical divisor of the surface is not pseudo-effective. As a corollary we show that if $X$ is a log…

The subject is partial resolution of singularities. Given an algebraic variety X (not necessarily equidimensional) in characteristic zero (or, more generally, a pair (X,D), where D is a divisor on X), we construct a functorial…

In this paper, we prove a `cut-by-curves criterion' for an overconvergent isocrystal on a smooth variety over a field of characteristic $p>0$ to extend logarithmically to its smooth compactification whose complement is a strict normal…

We generalize Deligne's equivalence between the categories of regular-singular connections on the formal punctured disk and on the punctured affine line to the case where the base is a strictly Henselian discrete valuation ring of equal…

We extend the results of Deligne and Illusie on liftings modulo $p^2$ and decompositions of the de Rham complex in several ways. We show that for a smooth scheme $X$ over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$, the truncations of the…

We prove the regularity conjecture, namely Eisenbud-Goto conjecture, for a normal surface with rational, Gorenstein elliptic and log canonical singularities. Along the way, we bound the regularity for a dimension zero scheme by its Loewy…

We prove that holomorphic normal projective connections on compact complex surfaces are flat. We show that a holomorphic torsion-free affine connection $\nabla$ on a compact complex surface is locally modelled on a translations-invariant…

We prove that a smooth and connected algebraic group $G$ is affine if and only if any invertible sheaf on any normal $G$-variety is $G$-invariant. For the proof, a key ingredient is the following result: if $G$ is a connected and smooth…
