All knots are algebraic.
We give a simple proof of almost properness of any extremal mapping in the sense of Lempert function or in the sense of Kobayashi-Royden pseudometric.
We generalize the work of Jian Song by computing the α-invariant of any (nef and big) toric line bundle in terms of the associated polytope. We use the analytic version of the computation of the log canonical threshold of monomial ideals to give the log canonical threshold of any non-negatively curved singular hermitian metric on the line bundle, and deduce the α-invariant from this.
Les amibesdes variétés algébriques dans sont les images de ces variétés par l’application des moments , . Des résultats obtenus par G. Mikhalkin montrent l’utilité des amibes pour l’étude des variétés algébriques réelles et complexes. Les amibes peuvent être déformées en des complexes polyédraux appelésvariétés algébriques tropicales. Cette déformation permet, en particulier, de calculer les invariants de Gromov-Witten du plan projectif et d’autres surfaces toriques en dénombrant des courbes...
Let be a germ of a complete intersection variety in , , having an isolated singularity at and be the germ of a holomorphic vector field having an isolated zero at and tangent to . We show that in this case the homological index and the GSV-index coincide. In the case when the zero of is also isolated in the ambient space we give a formula for the homological index in terms of local linear algebra.
The Fefferman construction associates to a manifold carrying a CR–structure a conformal structure on a sphere bundle over the manifold. There are some analogs to this construction, with one giving a Lie contact structure, a refinement of the contact bundle on the bundle of rays in the cotangent bundle of a manifold with a conformal metric. Since these structures are parabolic geometries, these constructions can be dealt with in this setting.
