Given five points in a three-dimensional euclidean space, one can consider five tetrahedra, using those points as vertices. We present a pentagon-like formula containing the product of three volumes of those tetrahedra in its l.h.s. and the…

We consider closed biharmonic hypersurfaces in the Euclidean sphere and prove a rigidity result under a suitable condition on the scalar curvature. Moreover, we establish an integral formula involving the position vector for biharmonic…

We compute the compactly supported cohomology of the standard realization of any locally finite building.

We give a short proof of the contractibility of the space of geodesic triangulations with fixed combinatorial type of a convex polygon in the Euclidean plane. Moreover, for any $n>0$, we show that there exists a space of geodesic…

We construct examples of 3-dimensional compact aspherical Alexandrov spaces without boundary which are not topological manifolds.

We construct the fine moduli space of log abelian varieties with PEL structure, which gives a toroidal compactification of the moduli space of abelian varieties with PEL structure.

We obtain two partial answers to the 3-space problem for isomorphic polyhedrality: (1) every twisted sum of $C(\alpha)$, $\alpha<\omega_1$, with a separable isomorphically polyhedral space with the BAP, is isomorphically polyhedral. (2)…

Rationally convex topological embeddings of compact surfaces (closed or with boundary) into $\mathbb{C}^2$ are constructed.

By work of Gallardo-Kerr-Schaffler, it is known that Naruki's compactification of the moduli space of marked cubic surfaces is isomorphic to the normalization of the Koll\'ar, Shepherd-Barron, and Alexeev compactification parametrizing…

We introduce and study smooth compactifications of the moduli space of n labeled points with weights in projective space, which have normal crossings boundary and are defined as GIT quotients of the weighted Fulton-MacPherson…

We construct several modular compactifications of the Hurwitz space $H^d_{g/h}$ of genus $g$ curves expressed as $d$-sheeted, simply branched covers of genus $h$ curves. These compactifications are obtained by allowing the branch points of…

To study a noncompact Riemannian manifold, it is often useful to find a compactification. We discuss several common compactifications and survey some recent results.

We investigate a special kind of contraction of symmetric spaces (respectively, of Lie triple systems), called homotopy. In this first part of a series of two papers we construct such contractions for classical symmetric spaces in an…

Let Z be an algebraic homogeneous space Z=G/H attached to real reductive Lie group G. We assume that Z is real spherical, i.e., minimal parabolic subgroups have open orbits on Z. For such spaces we investigate their large scale geometry and…

A smooth cuboid can be identified with a $3\times 3$ matrix of linear forms, with coefficients in a field $K$, whose determinant describes a smooth cubic in the projective plane. To each such matrix one can associate a group scheme over…
