We describe a new class of positive linear discrete-time switching systems for which the problems of stability or stabilizability can be resolved constructively. This class generalizes the class of systems with independently switching state…

Stratifications and iterative differential equations are analogues in positive characteristic of complex linear differential equations. There are few explicit examples of stratifications. The main goal of this paper is to construct…

We investigate sheaves supported on the zero section of the total space of a locally-free sheaf E on a smooth, projective variety X when the top exterior power of E is isomorphic to the canonical bundle of X. We rephrase this construction…

The goal of this paper is to motivate a boundedness conjecture on nearby slopes of $\ell$-adic sheaves in positive characteristic, and to prove it for smooth curves. For a constructible $\ell$-adic sheaf, we prove the finiteness of the set…

Consider the scheme parametrizing non-constant morphisms from a fixed projective curve to a projective surface. There is a rational map between this scheme and the Chow variety of $1$-cycles on the surface. We prove that, if the curve is…

We formalize the concept of sheaves of sets on a model site by considering variables thereof, or motifs, and we construct functorially defined derived algebraic stacks from them, thereby eliminating the necessity to choose derived…

We explicitly describe the $\mathbb A^1$-chain homotopy classes of morphisms from a smooth henselian local scheme into a smooth projective surface, which is birationally ruled over a curve of genus $> 0$. We consequently determine the sheaf…

We show how derived categories build bridges across the current mathematical mainstream, linking geometric and algebraic, commutative and noncommutative, local and global banks. Arches in these bridges are pieces of semiorthogonal…

Let H be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field. We define a surjective map from the set CS(H) of unipotent character sheaves on H (up to isomorphism) to the set of strata of H. To do this we use the generalized…

This paper is an introduction to the use of perverse sheaves with positive characteristic coefficients in modular representation theory. In the first part, we survey results relating singularities in finite and affine Schubert varieties and…

In the previous part of this diptych, we defined the notion of an admissible simplicial connection, as well as explaining how H.I. Green constructed a resolution of coherent analytic sheaves by locally free sheaves on the \v{C}ech nerve.…

We characterize the languages in the individual levels of the quantifier alternation hierarchy of first-order logic with two variables by identities. This implies decidability of the individual levels. More generally we show that the…

Let X be a smooth, complete, toric variety. We study those curves C in X that are contractible, in the sense that there exists an equivariant morphism with connected fibers, with source X, that contracts exactly the irreducible curves that…

We study stability conditions on the derived categories of coherent sheaves on some projective varieties. We give a complete description of the stability manifold for smooth projective curves and we examine a connected open subset of the…

Representations of vertex operator algebras define sheaves of coinvariants and conformal blocks on moduli of stable pointed curves. Assuming certain finiteness and semisimplicity conditions, we prove that such sheaves satisfy the…

Let $C$ be a curve with two smooth components and a single node. Let $\mathcal{U}_C(r,w,\chi)$ be the moduli space of $w$-semistable classes of depth one sheaves on $C$ having rank $r$ on both components and Euler characteristic $\chi$. In…

We prove that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves with proper support is equivalent to the category of locally-finite, cohomological functors on the perfect derived category of a quasi-projective scheme over a field. We…

Over a smooth complex projective curve, we study an algebraic versal deformation space with fixed determinant of a coherent sheaf. The algebraic versal deformation space decomposes into a disjoint union of Shatz strata, namely locally…

We give an explicit description of the irreducible components of two-row Springer fibers in type A as closed subvarieties in certain Nakajima quiver varieties in terms of quiver representations. By taking invariants under a variety…

A ribbon is a non-reduced curve modelled on the first infinitesimal neighbourhood of a smooth curve in a surface. This paper is devoted to describe some properties of coherent sheaves on such a curve and their Simpson moduli space. In…
