Geometrical structures intrinsic to non-expanding, weakly isolated and isolated horizons are analyzed and compared with structures which arise in other contexts within general relativity, e.g., at null infinity. In particular, we address in…
Extremal length is a classical tool in 1-dimensional complex analysis for building conformal invariants. We propose a higher-dimensional generalization for complex manifolds and provide some ideas on how to estimate and calculate it. We…
Exotic sheaves are certain complexes of coherent sheaves on the cotangent bundle of the flag variety of a reductive group. They are closely related to perverse-coherent sheaves on the nilpotent cone. This expository article includes the…
Inspired by a recent result of Levine-Lidman-Piccirillo, we construct infinitely many exotic smooth structures on some closed four-manifolds with definite intersection form and fundamental group isomorphic to $\Z /2\Z$. Similar…
Let $f \colon X \to X$ be a surjective endomorphism of a normal projective surface. When $\operatorname{deg} f \geq 2$, applying an (iteration of) $f$-equivariant minimal model program (EMMP), we determine the geometric structure of $X$.…
We provide an approach to study exotic phenomena in relatively small 4-manifolds that captures many different exotic behaviors under one umbrella. These phenomena include exotic smooth structures on 4-manifolds with $b_2=1$, examples of…
Much recent attention has focused on theories with large extra compactified dimensions. However, while the phenomenological implications of the volume moduli associated with such compactifications are well understood, relatively little…
We study generalized diffeomorphisms in exceptional geometry with U-duality group E_{n(n)} from an algebraic point of view. By extending the Lie algebra e_n to an infinite-dimensional Borcherds superalgebra, involving also the extension to…
In this article, we will introduce methods of non-standard analysis into projective geometry. Especially, we will analyze the properties of a projective space over a non-Archimedean field. Non-Archimedean fields contain numbers that are…
We consider the complexity of special $\alpha$-limit sets, a kind of backward limit set for non-invertible dynamical systems. We show that these sets are always analytic, but not necessarily Borel, even in the case of a surjective map on…
We review some of the geometry of the quantum projective plane with emphasis on the construction of a differential calculus and of the Dirac operator (of a spin^c-structure). We also report on anti-self-dual connections on line bundles, the…
We show how to construct absolutely exotic smooth structures on compact 4-manifolds with boundary, including contractible manifolds. In particular, we prove that any compact smooth 4-manifold W with boundary that admits a relatively exotic…
Basic aspects of differential geometry can be extended to various non-classical settings: Lipschitz manifolds, rectifiable sets, sub-Riemannian manifolds, Banach manifolds, Weiner space, etc. Although the constructions differ, in each of…
The study of the limiting absorption principle for elliptic equations with periodic structures is very challenging when the dimension is greater than 1. The fundamental reason for the dimensional barrier is the mismatch between directional…
We investigate structural implications arising from the condition that a given directed graph does not interpret, in the sense of primitive positive interpretation with parameters or orbits, every finite structure. Our results generalize…
The purpose of this paper is to provide a new account of multiplicity for finite morphisms between smooth projective varieties. Traditionally, this has been defined using commutative algebra in terms of the length of integral ring…
This is a slightly revised version of lectures notes for a course in Summer 2022 joint between Bonn and Copenhagen, intended as a stable citable version. The goal of this course is to make our general approach to analytic geometry via…
In this paper, we record some foundational results on adic geometry that seem to be missing in the existing literature. Namely, we develop the Proj construction and a theory of lci closed immersions in the context of locally noetherian…
This paper studies properly embedded surfaces in the 4-ball that are exotically knotted (i.e., topologically but not smoothly isotopic), and leverages this local phenomenon to study surfaces in larger 4-manifolds. The main results provide a…
In this paper, for a given finitely generated algebra (an algebraic structure with arbitrary operations and no predicates) A we study finitely generated limit algebras of A, approaching them via model theory and algebraic geometry. Along…
