Given a Kaehler group $G$ and a primitive class $\phi \in H^1(G;Z)$, we show that the rank gradient of $(G;\phi)$ is zero if and only if Ker $\phi$ is finitely generated. Using this approach, we give a quick proof of the fact (originally…

Let G be one of the groups SL_n C, Sp_2n C, SO_m C, O_m C, or G_2. For a generically free G-representation V, we say that N is a level of stable rationality for V/G if V/G x P^N is rational. In this paper we improve known bounds for the…

It is shown that the algebra of bounded Dirichlet series is not a coherent ring, and has infinite Bass stable rank. As corollaries of the latter result, it is derived that the algebra of bounded Dirichlet series has infinite topological…

Under mild topological restrictions, we obtain new linear upper bounds for the dimension of the mod $p$ homology (for any prime $p$) of a finite-volume orientable hyperbolic $3$ manifold $M$ in terms of its volume. A surprising feature of…

Let $S$ be a set of critical points of a smooth real-valued function on a closed manifold $M$. Generalizing a well-known result of Lusternik--Schnirelmann, Reeken~[R] proved that $\cat S \geq \cat M$. Here we prove a generalization of…

A finite volume symplectic manifold is said to have "packing stability" if the only obstruction to symplectically embedding sufficiently small balls is the volume obstruction. Packing stability has been shown in a variety of cases and it…

We give an upper bound for the cactus rank of any multi-homogeneous polynomial.

We prove packing stability for any closed symplectic manifold with rational cohomology class. This will rely on a general symplectic embedding result for ellipsoids which assumes only that there is no volume obstruction and that the domain…

In this paper, we prove that a noncompact complete hypersurface with finite weighted volume, weighted mean curvature vector bounded in norm, and isometrically immersed in a complete weighted manifold is proper. In addition, we obtain an…

We give an example of a symplectic manifold with a stable hypersurface such that nearby hypersurfaces are typically unstable.

In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…

We prove that cubical simplicial volume of oriented closed 3-manifolds is equal to one fifth of ordinary simplicial volume.

Consider the configuration spaces of manifolds. An influential theorem of McDuff, Segal and Church shows that the (co)homology of the unordered configuration space is independent of number of points in a range of degree called the stable…

Classification and invariants, with respect to basis changes, of finite dimensional algebras are considered. An invariant open, dense (in the Zariscki topology) subset of the space of structural constants is defined. The algebras with…

We consider closed manifolds that possess a so called rank one ray structure. That is a (flat) affine structure such that the linear part is given by the products of a diagonal transformation and a commuting rotation. We show that closed…

We provide explicit bounds on the difference of heights of isogenous Drinfeld modules. We derive a finiteness result in isogeny classes. In the rank 2 case, we also obtain an explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients of modular…

Harmonic manifolds of hypergeometric type form a class of non-compact harmonic manifolds that includes rank one symmetric spaces of non-compact type and Damek-Ricci spaces. When normalizing the metric of a harmonic manifold of…

We find conditions which ensure that the topological complexity of a closed manifold $M$ with abelian fundamental group is nonmaximal, and see through examples that our conditions are sharp. This generalizes results of Costa and Farber on…

We compute an upper bound for the dimension of the tangent spaces at classical points of certain eigenvarieties associated with definite unitary groups, especially including the so-called critically refined cases. Our bound is given in…

In Thurston's notes, he gives two different definitions of the Gromov norm (also called simplicial volume) of a manifold and states that they are equal but does not prove it. Gromov proves it in the special case of hyperbolic manifolds as a…
