The Chow-Mumford (CM) line bundle is a functorial line bundle on the base of any family of klt Fano varieties. It is conjectured that it yields a polarization on the moduli space of K-poly-stable klt Fano varieties. Proving ampleness of the CM line bundle ...
Abelian varieties are fascinating objects, combining the fields of geometry and arithmetic. While the interest in abelian varieties has long time been of purely theoretic nature, they saw their first real-world application in cryptography in the mid 1980's ...
We define a generalization of the Mullineux involution on multipartitions using the theory of crystals for higher-level Fock spaces. Our generalized Mullineux involution turns up in representation theory via two important derived functors on cyclotomic Che ...
The Boolean lattice (2[n],subset of) is the family of all subsets of [n]={1,MIDLINE HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS,n}, ordered by inclusion. Let P be a partially ordered set. We prove that if n is sufficiently large, then there exists a packing P of copies of P in (2 ...
We show that for a large class C of finitely generated groups of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of the real line, the following holds: Given a group G of rank k in C, there is a sequence of k-markings (G,S-n), n is an element of N whose limit in the ...
We study actions of groups by orientation preserving homeomorphisms on R (or an interval) that are minimal, have solvable germs at +/-infinity and contain a pair of elements of a certain dynamical type. We call such actions coherent. We establish that such ...
We classify simple groups that act by birational transformations on compact complex Kahler surfaces. Moreover, we show that every finitely generated simple group that acts non-trivially by birational transformations on a projective surface over an arbitrar ...
We construct a new family of lattice packings for superballs in three dimensions (unit balls for the l(3)(p) norm) with p epsilon (1, 1.58]. We conjecture that the family also exists for p epsilon (1.58, log(2) 3 = 1.5849625 ...]. Like in the densest latti ...
Tolerancing is an important step toward the fabrication of high-quality and cost-effective lens surfaces. It is critical for wafer-level optics, when up to tens of thousands microlenses are fabricated in parallel and whose surfaces cannot be formed individ ...
