Let $L$ be a separable quadratic extension of either $\mathbb{Q}$ or $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$. We propose efficient algorithms for finding isomorphisms between quaternion algebras over $L$. Our techniques are based on computing maximal one-sided…

The symmetry dimension of a geometric structure is the dimension of its symmetry algebra. We investigate symmetries of almost quaternionic structures of quaternionic dimension $n$. The maximal possible symmetry is realized by the…

A known general program, designed to endow the quotient space ${\cal U}_{\cal A} / {\cal U}_{\cal B}$ of the unitary groups ${\cal U}_{\cal A}$, ${\cal U}_{\cal B}$ of the C$^*$ algebras ${\cal B}\subset{\cal A}$ with an invariant Finsler…

For some centrally symmetric convex bodies $K\subset \mathbb R^n$, we study the energy integral $$ \sup \int_{K} \int_{K} \|x - y\|_r^{p}\, d\mu(x) d\mu(y), $$ where the supremum runs over all finite signed Borel measures $\mu$ on $K$ of…

We discover some very general configuration results for constructing area-minimizing cones. In particular, given any closed minimal submanifold in some Euclidean sphere, every cone over the minimal product of sufficiently many copies of the…

Motivated by the embedding problem of canonical models in small codimension, we extend Severi's double point formula to the case of surfaces with rational double points, and we give more general double point formulae for varieties with…

We present a relation between sparsity and non-Euclidean isomorphic embeddings. We introduce a general restricted isomorphism property and show how it enables to construct embeddings of $\ell_p^n$, $p > 0$, into various type of Banach or…

A subspace arrangement in a vector space is a finite collection of vector subspaces. Similarly, a configuration of linear spaces in a projective space is a finite collection of linear subspaces. In this paper we study the degree 2 part of…

A general position map $f:K\to M$ of a $k$-dimensional simplicial complex to a $2k$-dimensional manifold (for $k=1$, of a graph to a surface) is a $\mathbb Z_2$-embedding if $|f\sigma \cap f\tau|$ is even for any non-adjacent $k$-faces…

The main goal of this paper is to give a general method to compute (via computer algebra systems) an explicit set of generators of the ideals of the projective embeddings of some ruled surfaces, namely projective line bundles over curves…

Let V be a variety in P^n(C) and let W be a linear space, of dimension w, in P^n. We say that V can be isomorphically projected onto W if there exists a linear projection f, from a suitable linear space L disjoint from W, dim(L) = n-w-1 >=…

Let $P$ be a set of points and $L$ a set of lines in the (extended) Euclidean plane, and $I \subseteq P\times L$, where $i =(p,l) \in I$ means that point $p$ and line $l$ are incident. The incidences can be interpreted as quadratic…

We solve Talagrand's entropy problem: the L_2-covering numbers of every uniformly bounded class of functions are exponential in its shattering dimension. This extends Dudley's theorem on classes of {0,1}-valued functions, for which the…

We focus on the classical open problem of the classification of K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds that can be K\"ahler immersed into a complex projective space endowed with the Fubini-Study metric. In particular, we will deal with such problem in…

We construct an irreducible embedded projective plane in $S^4$. This gives a counterexample to the Kinoshita conjecture and answers Problem 4.37 of the K3 problem list. Moreover, we answer both Questions (i) and (ii) of Problem 4.37: (i)…

The sphere packing problem asks for the greatest density of a packing of congruent balls in Euclidean space. The current best upper bound in all sufficiently high dimensions is due to Kabatiansky and Levenshtein in 1978. We revisit their…

New embeddings of weighted Sobolev spaces are established. Using such embeddings, we obtain the existence and regularity of positive solutions with Navier boundary value problems for a weighted fourth order elliptic equation. We also obtain…

Cubature formulas, asymptotically optimal with respect to accuracy, are derived for calculating multidimensional weakly singular integrals. They are used for developing a universal code for calculating capacitances of conductors of…

The main result is that a finite dimensional normed space embeds isometrically in $\ell_p$ if and only if it has a discrete Levy $p$-representation. This provides an alternative answer to a question raised by Pietch, and as a corollary, a…

The quantum symmetry group of the inductive limit of C*-algebras equipped with orthogonal filtrations is shown to be the projective limit of the quantum symmetry groups of the C*-algebras appearing in the sequence. Some explicit examples of…
