Classical existence theorems and solution methods for quadratic programming traditionally rely on the analytical properties of real numbers, specifically compactness and completeness. These tools are unavailable in general linearly ordered…

In the limit of many fermion flavors it is demonstrated that the sextic Gross-Neveu theory in three dimensions displays a line of interacting UV fixed points, characterised by an exactly marginal sextic interaction. We determine the…

Given a homogeneous component of an exterior algebra, we characterize those subspaces in which every nonzero element is decomposable. In geometric terms, this corresponds to characterizing the projective linear subvarieties of the Grassmann…

Let $B$ be a smooth projective curve and let $\pi: \mathcal{X} \to B$ be a smooth integral model of a geometrically integral Fano variety over $K(B)$. Geometric Manin's Conjecture predicts the structure of the irreducible components $M…

Let $\gg$ be a simple, finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra, and let $V^k(\gg)$ denote the universal affine vertex algebra associated to $\gg$ at level $k$. The Cartan involution on $\gg$ lifts to an involution on $V^k(\gg)$, and we…

The projective general linear group $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathrm{GF}(2^m))$ acts as a $3$-transitive permutation group on the set of points of the projective line. The first objective of this paper is to prove that all linear codes over…

We study the orchard problem on cubic surfaces. We classify possibly reducible cubic surfaces $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^3(\C)$ with smooth components on which there exist families of finite sets (of unbounded size) with quadratically many…

Our first result is a statement of a somewhat general form of a non-substitution theorem for linear programming problems, along with a very easy proof of the same. Subsequently, we provide an easy proof of theorem 1 in a 1979 paper of Olvi…

We prove birational superrigidity of generic Fano complete intersections $V$ of type $2^{k_1}\cdot 3^{k_2}$ in the projective space ${\mathbb P}^{2k_1+3k_2}$, under the condition that $k_2\geq 2$ and $k_1+2k_2=\mathop{\rm dim} V\geq 12$,…

In this article we establish the arithmetic purity of strong approximation for certain semi-simple simply connected $k$-simple linear algebraic groups and their homogeneous spaces over a number field $k$. For instance, for any such group…

Let $(P,E)$ be a $(d+1)$-uniform geometric hypergraph, where $P$ is an $n$-point set in general position in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $E\subseteq {P\choose d+1}$ is a collection of $\epsilon{n\choose d+1}$ $d$-dimensional simplices with vertices…

We study congruences of lines $X_\omega$ defined by a sufficiently general choice of an alternating 3-form $\omega$ in $n+1$ dimensions, as Fano manifolds of index $3$ and dimension $n-1$. These congruences include the…

We investigate $k$-nets with $k\geq 4$ embedded in the projective plane $PG(2,\mathbb{K})$ defined over a field $\mathbb{K}$; they are line configurations in $PG(2,\mathbb{K})$ consisting of $k$ pairwise disjoint line-sets, called…

We establish an effective Bertini-type theorem for hypersurfaces $X_f \colon f = 0$ defined over a finite field $k$ for which $f$ has no linear factors over the algebraic closure $\overline{k}$. Given a line $L$ defined over $k$ and a…

We study the fine-grained uniform convergence behavior of halfspaces beyond worst-case VC bounds. For inhomogeneous halfspaces in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d\ge 2$, we show that standard first-order VC bounds are essentially tight: even…

Let X be a projective hypersurface in P_k^n of degree d <= n. In this paper we study the relation between the class [X] in K_0(Var_k) and the existence of k-rational points. Using elementary geometric methods we show, for some particular X,…

We study the intersection of an algebraic variety with the maximal compact subgroup of a universal vectorial extension of a product of elliptic curves. For this intersection we show a Manin-Mumford type statement. This answers some…

Let $K$ be an arbitrary field of characteristic zero, $P_n:= K[ x_1, ..., x_n]$ be a polynomial algebra, and $P_{n, x_1}:= K[x_1^{-1}, x_1, ..., x_n]$, for $n\geq 2$. Let $\s' \in {\rm Aut}_K(P_n)$ be given by $$ x_1\mapsto x_1-1, \quad…

For a finite set $U$ of directions in the Euclidean plane, a convex non-degenerate polygon $P$ is called a $U$-polygon if every line parallel to a direction of $U$ that meets a vertex of $P$ also meets another vertex of $P$. We characterize…

Let $k$ be a field, $V$ be a $k$-vector space and $X\subset V$ an algebraic irreducible subvariety. We say that a function $f:X(k) \to k$ is weakly linear if its restriction to any two-dimensional linear subspace $W$ of $V$ contained in $X$…
