We establish that any affine manifold $(M,\nabla)$ endowed with a parallel volume form $\omega,$ admits, in any conformal class of Riemannian metrics, a representative $H$ for which $\nabla$ is the Levi-Civita connection. This provides a…

In this paper, an approach for generalizing the Gromov-Hausdorff metric is presented, which applies to metric spaces equipped with some additional structure. A special case is the Gromov-Hausdorff-Prokhorov metric between measured metric…

We are interested in classifying groups of local biholomorphisms (or even formal diffeomorphisms) that can be endowed with a canonical structure of algebraic group up to add extra formal diffeomorphisms. We show that this is the case for…

We present a uniform framework generalising and extending the classical theories of projective differential geometry, c-projective geometry, and almost quaternionic geometry. Such geometries, which we call \emph{projective parabolic…

Let $G$ be a finitely presented group. A new complexity called \textit{Karoubi-Weibel complexity} or \textit{covering type}, is defined for $G$. The construction is inspired by recent work of Karoubi and Weibel \cite{KW}, initially applied…

In this paper we provide a framework for the study of isoperimetric problems in finitely generated group, through a combinatorial study of universal covers of compact simplicial complexes. We show that, when estimating filling functions,…

The objective of this research is the development of a geometrically exact model for the analysis of arbitrarily curved spatial Bernoulli-Euler beams. The complete metric of the beam is utilized in order to include the effect of curviness…

The orbits space of an irreducible linear representation of a finite group is a variety whose coordinate ring is the ring of invariant polynomials. Boris Dubrovin proved that the orbits space of the standard reflection representation of an…

We give an explicit presentation for the integral cohomology ring of the complement of any arrangement of level sets of characters in a complex torus (alias "toric arrangement"). Our description parallels the one given by Orlik and Solomon…

Real algebraic geometry is the study of semi-algebraic sets, subsets of $\R^k$ defined by Boolean combinations of polynomial equalities and inequalities. The focus of this thesis is to study quantitative results in real algebraic geometry,…

We study smooth higher symmetry groups and moduli $\infty$-stacks of generic higher geometric structures on manifolds. Symmetries are automorphisms which cover non-trivial diffeomorphisms of the base manifold. We construct the smooth higher…

We study the critical points of monomial functions over an algebraic subset of the probability simplex. The number of critical points on the Zariski closure is a topological invariant of that embedded projective variety, known as its…

In arXiv:1711.05958, arXiv:2103.12673, the authors derive one-dimensional Landau-Ginzburg mirrors of Dubrovin-Zhang Frobenius manifolds constructed on regular orbit spaces of an extension of affine Weyl groups. We generalise the method…

We initiate a systematic study of the perfection of affine group schemes of finite type over fields of positive characteristic. The main result intrinsically characterises and classifies the perfections of reductive groups, and obtains a…

In this paper, we study locally strongly convex affine hypersurfaces with vanishing Weyl curvature tensor and semi-parallel cubic form relative to the Levi-Civita connection of affine metric. As the main result, we classify such…

We consider a class of relative $n$-Calabi--Yau dg-algebras, referred to as relative Ginzburg algebras, associated with marked surfaces equipped with a decomposition into $n$-gons ($n$-angulation). We relate their derived categories to the…

We study deformations of orbit closures for the action of a connected semisimple group $G$ on its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, especially when $G$ is the special linear group. The tools we use are on the one hand the invariant Hilbert scheme…

It is proved that the sum of the Loewy lengths of the homology modules of a finite free complex F over a local ring R is bounded below by a number depending only on R. This result uncovers, in the structure of modules of finite projective…

Margulis spacetimes are complete affine 3-manifolds that were introduced to show that the cocompactness condition of Auslander's conjecture is necessary. There are Lorentzian manifolds that are obtained as a quotient of the three…

These are significantly expanded lecture notes for the author's minicourse at MSRI in June 2012, as published in the MSRI lecture note series, with some minor additional corrections. In these notes, we give an example-motivated review of…
