In this short note we show that the homotopy category of smooth compactifications of smooth algebraic varieties is equivalent to the homotopy category of smooth varieties over a field of characteristic zero. As an application we show that…
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…
We construct a functor from the category of manifolds with generalized corners to the category of complexes of toric monoids, and for every `refinement' of the complex associated to a manifold, we show there is a unique `blow-up', i.e., a…
Using the wonderful compactification of a semisimple adjoint affine algebraic group G defined over an algebraically closed field k of arbitrary characteristic, we construct a natural compactification Y of the G-character variety of any…
Localization properties of fields in compact extra dimensions are crucial ingredients for string model building, particularly in the framework of orbifold compactifications. Realistic models often require a slight deviation from the…
This paper focuses on blow-up solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). We present a method for validating blow-up solutions and their blow-up times, which is based on compactifications and the Lyapunov function validation…
In this paper we try to look at the compactification of Teichmuller spaces from a tropical viewpoint. We describe a general construction for the compactification of algebraic varieties, using their amoebas, and we describe the boundary via…
In this document we let $U$ be a smooth variety of pure dimension $d$ over a local field $k_v$ with unit ball $\mathcal{O}_v$ and residue field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic $p>0$ and we set $n$ to be a positive integer such that $p\nmid…
We define a natural compactification of an arrangement complement in a ball quotient. We show that when this complement has a moduli space interpretation, then this compactification is often one that appears naturally by means of geometric…
The classification of (proper) compactifications of topological groups with respect to the possibility of extensions of algebraic operations is presented. Ellis' method of construction compactifications of topological groups allows one to…
This paper makes a modest contribution to the family of starlike univalent mappings in the open unit disk, by the introduction of some new subclasses of them via certain convolution operators. A new univalence condition is given with…
Fulton and MacPherson famously constructed a configuration space that encodes infinitesimal collision data by blowing up the diagonals. We observe that when generalizing their approach to configuration spaces of filtered manifolds (e.g. jet…
In this work we provide an explicit cdga that controls the rational homotopy type of the complement $X-\cup_i Z_i$, where $X$ is a smooth compact algebraic variety and $\{Z_i\}$ is a collection of subvarieties such that all set-theoretical…
We classify the holomorphic parabolic geometries on compact complex manifolds of general type. We accomplish this by bounding the numerical dimension of any smooth projective variety in terms of geometric invariants of the flag variety…
We provide a numerical validation method of blow-up solutions for finite dimensional vector fields admitting asymptotic quasi-homogeneity at infinity. Our methodology is based on quasi-homogeneous compactifications containing a new…
Real blow-up, including inhomogeneous versions, of boundary faces of a manifold (with corners) is an important tool for resolving singularities, degeneracies and competing notions of homogeneity. These constructions are shown to be…
We establish closed-form expansions for the universal edge elimination polynomial of paths and cycles and their generating functions. This includes closed-form expansions for the bivariate matching polynomial, the bivariate chromatic…
We construct a triangulation of a compactification of the Moduli space of a surface with at least one puncture that is closely related to the Deligne-Mumford compactification. Specifically, there is a surjective map from the…

We construct a compactification of the moduli space of twisted holomorphic maps with varying complex structure and bounded energy. For a given compact symplectic manifold $X$ with a compatible complex structure and a Hamiltonian action of…
