Local Gromov-Witten invariants are log invariants

2019

We prove a simple equivalence between the virtual count of rational curves in the total space of an anti-nef line bundle and the virtual count of rational curves maximally tangent to a smooth section of the dual line bundle. We conjecture a generalization to direct sums of line bundles.

Existence of common zeros for commuting vector fields on 3‐manifolds II. Solving global difficulties

2020

We address the following conjecture about the existence of common zeros for commuting vector fields in dimension three: if $X,Y$ are two $C^1$ commuting vector fields on a $3$-manifold $M$, and $U$ is a relatively compact open such that $X$ does not vanish on the boundary of $U$ and has a non vanishing Poincar\'e-Hopf index in $U$, then $X$ and $Y$ have a common zero inside $U$. We prove this conjecture when $X$ and $Y$ are of class $C^3$ and every periodic orbit of $Y$ along which $X$ and $Y$ are collinear is partially hyperbolic. We also prove the conjecture, still in the $C^3$ setting, assuming that the flow $Y$ leaves invariant a transverse plane field. These results shed new light on t…

Arithmetic hyperbolicity and a stacky Chevalley-Weil theorem

2020

We prove an analogue for algebraic stacks of Hermite-Minkowski's finiteness theorem from algebraic number theory, and establish a Chevalley-Weil type theorem for integral points on stacks. As an application of our results, we prove analogues of the Shafarevich conjecture for some surfaces of general type.

Effectively Computing Integral Points on the Moduli of Smooth Quartic Curves

2016

We prove an effective version of the Shafarevich conjecture (as proven by Faltings) for smooth quartic curves. To do so, we establish an effective version of Scholl's finiteness result for smooth del Pezzo surfaces of degree at most four.

Boundary quotients and ideals of Toeplitz C∗-algebras of Artin groups

2006

We study the quotients of the Toeplitz C*-algebra of a quasi-lattice ordered group (G,P), which we view as crossed products by a partial actions of G on closed invariant subsets of a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space, the Nica spectrum of (G,P). Our original motivation and our main examples are drawn from right-angled Artin groups, but many of our results are valid for more general quasi-lattice ordered groups. We show that the Nica spectrum has a unique minimal closed invariant subset, which we call the boundary spectrum, and we define the boundary quotient to be the crossed product of the corresponding restricted partial action. The main technical tools used are the results of …

Conformal Killing forms on nearly Kähler manifolds

2020

Abstract We study conformal Killing forms on compact 6-dimensional nearly Kahler manifolds. Our main result concerns forms of degree 3. Here we give a classification showing that all conformal Killing 3-forms are linear combinations of dω and its Hodge dual ⁎ d ω , where ω is the fundamental 2-form of the nearly Kahler structure. The proof is based on a fundamental integrability condition for conformal Killing forms. We have partial results in the case of conformal Killing 2-forms. In particular we show the non-existence of J-anti-invariant Killing 2-forms.

On the quasi-isometric and bi-Lipschitz classification of 3D Riemannian Lie groups.

2021

AbstractThis note is concerned with the geometric classification of connected Lie groups of dimension three or less, endowed with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. On the one hand, assembling results from the literature, we give a review of the complete classification of such groups up to quasi-isometries and we compare the quasi-isometric classification with the bi-Lipschitz classification. On the other hand, we study the problem whether two quasi-isometrically equivalent Lie groups may be made isometric if equipped with suitable left-invariant Riemannian metrics. We show that this is the case for three-dimensional simply connected groups, but it is not true in general for multiply connec…

Finiteness properties of pseudo-hyperbolic varieties

2019

Motivated by Lang-Vojta's conjecture, we show that the set of dominant rational self-maps of an algebraic variety over a number field with only finitely many rational points in any given number field is finite by combining Amerik's theorem for dynamical systems of infinite order with properties of Prokhorov-Shramov's notion of quasi-minimal models. We also prove a similar result in the geometric setting by using again Amerik's theorem and Prokhorov-Shramov's notion of quasi-minimal model, but also Weil's regularization theorem for birational self-maps and properties of dynamical degrees. Furthermore, in the geometric setting, we obtain an analogue of Kobayashi-Ochiai's finiteness result for…

Smoothness spaces of higher order on lower dimensional subsets of the Euclidean space

2015

We study Sobolev type spaces defined in terms of sharp maximal functions on Ahlfors regular subsets of R n and the relation between these spaces and traces of classical Sobolev spaces. This extends in a certain way the results of Shvartsman (20) to the case of lower dimensional subsets of the Euclidean space.
