We study the topology of the space of harmonic maps from $S^2$ to \CP 2$. We prove that the subspaces consisting of maps of a fixed degree and energy are path connected. By a result of Guest and Ohnita it follows that the same is true for…

We construct several pairwise-incomparable bounds on the projective dimensions of edge ideals. Our bounds use combinatorial properties of the associated graphs; in particular we draw heavily from the topic of dominating sets. Through…

This is the second of a series of two technical papers devoted to the analysis of holonomy invariants in strict higher gauge theory with end applications in higher Chern--Simons theory. We provide a definition of trace over a crossed module…

Let $G\subset SO(4)$ denote a finite subgroup containing the Heisenberg group. In these notes we classify all these groups, we find the dimension of the spaces of $G$-invariant polynomials and we give equations for the generators whenever…

This is a little investigation into the classification of complexes of direct sums of line bundles on projective spaces. We consider complexes on projective k-space Pk : O_Pk(-1)^a --> O_Pk^b --> O_Pk(1)^c, with the first map injective and…

Fix integers $a\geq 1$, $b$ and $c$. We prove that for certain projective varieties $V\subset{\bold P}^r$ (e.g. certain possibly singular complete intersections), there are only finitely many components of the Hilbert scheme parametrizing…

Consider a rational map from a projective space to a product of projective spaces, induced by a collection of linear projections. Motivated by the the theory of limit linear series and Abel-Jacobi maps, we study the basic properties of the…

Codimension 2 contact submanifolds are the natural generalization of transverse knots to contact manifolds of arbitrary dimension. In this paper, we construct new invariants of codimension 2 contact submanifolds. Our main invariant can be…

Quantization identifies the cotangent bundle of projective space with the (non-Hermitian) rank-$1$ projections of a Hilbert space. We use this identification to study the natural geometric structures of these cotangent bundles and those of…

This study is motivated by the researches in the field of invariants of geodesic and conformal mappings presented in (T. Y. Thomas, [22]) and (H. Weyl, [25]). The Thomas projective parameter and the Weyl projective tensor are generalized in…

In this article we characterize the complex hyperbolic groups that leave invariant a copy of the Veronese curve in $\Bbb{P}^2_{\Bbb{C}}$. As a corollary we get that every discrete compact surface group in $\PO^+(2,1)$ admits a deformation…

Labourie and the author independently showed that a convex real projective structure on an oriented surface of genus at least 2 is equivalent to a conformal structure plus a holomorphic cubic differential U. We analyze the behavior of the…

Recent progress in holographic correspondence uncovered remarkable relations between key characteristics of the theories on both sides of duality and certain integrable models. In this note we revisit the problem of the role of certain…

It is shown that if a regular knot of class C2 is embedded in the boundary of the complex hyperbolic plane as the limit set of a discrete subgroup of PU(2, 1) then it is either a chain or an R-circle.

Little is known about the global structure of the basins of attraction of Newton's method in two or more complex variables. We make the first steps by focusing on the specific Newton mapping to solve for the common roots of $P(x,y) =…

We consider the problem of computing matrix polynomials $p(X)$, where $X$ is a large dense matrix, with as few matrix-matrix multiplications as possible. More precisely, let $\Pi_{2^{m}}^*$ represent the set of polynomials computable with…

We give a combinatorial classification for the class of postcritically fixed Newton maps of polynomials and indicate potential for extensions. As our main tool, we show that for a large class of Newton maps that includes all hyperbolic…

In this paper, we establish second main theorems for holomorphic maps with finite growth index on complex discs intersecting families of hypersurfaces (moving and fixed) in projective varieties, where the small term is detailed estimate for…

We obtain a complete classification of hypercomplex manifolds, on which a compact group of automorphisms acts transitively. The description of the spaces as well as the proofs of our results use only the structure theory of reductive…

We show that if G is a discrete subgroup of the group of the isometries of the hyperbolic k-space H^k, and if R is a representation of G into the group of the isometries of H^n, then any R-equivariant map F from H^k to H^n extends to the…
