Consider a singular curve $\Gamma$ contained in a smooth 3-fold $X$. Assuming the general elephant conjecture, the general hypersurface section $\Gamma\subset S\subset X$ is Du Val. Under that assumption, this paper describes the…

Consider a connected homogeneous Riemannian manifold $(M,ds^2)$ and a Riemannian covering $(M,ds^2) \to \Gamma \backslash (M,ds^2)$. If $\Gamma \backslash (M,ds^2)$ is homogeneous then every $\gamma \in \Gamma$ is an isometry of constant…

Consider a fixed connected, finite graph $\Gamma$ and equip its vertices with weights $p_i$ which are non-negative integers. We show that there is a finite number of possibilities for the coefficients of the canonical cycle of a numerically…

Enhanced ind-sheaves provide a suitable framework for the irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence. In this paper, we give some precisions on nearby and vanishing cycles for enhanced perverse objects in dimension one. As an application, we…

For any separated algebraic space $X/S$ we construct a separated algebraic space $\Gamma^d(X/S)$ -- the space of divided powers -- which parameterizes zero cycles of degree $d$ on $X$. The space of divided powers for an affine scheme is…

In the present paper we consider Riemannian coverings $(X,g) \to (M,g)$ with residually finite covering group $\Gamma$ and compact base space $(M,g)$. In particular, we give two general procedures resulting in a family of deformed coverings…

According to the O'Nan--Scott Theorem, a finite primitive permutation group either preserves a structure of one of three types (affine space, Cartesian lattice, or diagonal semilattice), or is almost simple. However, diagonal groups are a…

A result of Popa and Schnell shows that any holomorphic 1-form on a smooth complex projective variety of general type admits zeros. More generally, given a variety $X$ which admits $g$ pointwise linearly independent holomorphic 1-forms,…

Dieter Happel asked the following question: If the $n$-th Hochschild cohomology group of a finite dimensional algebra $\Gamma$ over a field vanishes for all sufficiently large $n$, is the global dimension of $\Gamma$ finite? We give a…

We study how the geometry of a projective variety $X$ is reflected in the positivity properties of the diagonal $\Delta_X$ considered as a cycle on $X \times X$. We analyze when the diagonal is big, when it is nef, and when it is rigid. In…

Let $(X,J) $ be an almost complex manifold with a (smooth) involution $\sigma:X\to X$ such that $Fix(\sigma)\neq \emptyset$. Assume that $\sigma$ is a complex conjugation, i.e, the differential of $\sigma$ anti-commutes with $J$. The space…

Let $k$ be a field and let $\Omega$ be a universal domain over $k$. Let $f:X \r S$ be a dominant morphism defined over $k$ from a smooth projective variety $X$ to a smooth projective variety $S$ of dimension $\leq 2$ such that the general…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over a finite field $\F$. We discuss the unramified cohomology group $H^3_\nr(X,\Q/\Z(2))$. Several conjectures put together imply that this group is finite. For certain classes of threefolds,…

We show that for every smooth generic projective hypersurface $X\subset\mathbb P^{n+1}$, there exists a proper subvariety $Y\subsetneq X$ such that $\operatorname{codim}_X Y\ge 2$ and for every non constant holomorphic entire map…

In this note we construct a closed 4-manifold having torsion-free fundamental group and whose universal covering is of macroscopic dimension 3. This yields a counterexample to Gromov's conjecture about the falling of macroscopic dimension.

Fix $c\in (0,1)$ and let $\Gamma$ be a $\lfloor c n\rfloor$-regular digraph on $n$ vertices drawn uniformly at random. We prove that when $n$ is large, the (non-symmetric) adjacency matrix $M$ of $\Gamma$ is invertible with high…

We study the vanishing cycles of a one-parameter smoothing of a complex analytic space and show that the weight filtration on its perverse cohomology sheaf of the highest degree is quite close to the monodromy filtration so that its graded…

The aim of this paper is to study the modified diagonal cycle in the triple product of a curve over a global field defined by Gross and Schoen. Our main result is an identity between the height of this cycle and the self-intersection of the…

We define $G$-cospectrality of two $G$-gain graphs $(\Gamma,\psi)$ and $(\Gamma',\psi')$, proving that it is a switching isomorphism invariant. When $G$ is a finite group, we prove that $G$-cospectrality is equivalent to cospectrality with…

In this paper, we show that if $X$ is a smooth variety of general type of dimension $m \geq 2$, for which its canonical map induces a double cover onto $Y$, where $Y$ is a projective bundle over $\mathbf P^1$, or onto a projective space or…
