Chen–Ruan Cohomology of 1 , n and ¯ 1 , n

Nicola Pagani (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

In this work we compute the Chen–Ruan cohomology of the moduli spaces of smooth and stable n -pointed curves of genus 1 . In the first part of the paper we study and describe stack theoretically the twisted sectors of 1 , n and ¯ 1 , n . In the second part, we study the orbifold intersection theory of ¯ 1 , n . We suggest a definition for an orbifold tautological ring in genus 1 , which is a subring of both the Chen–Ruan cohomology and of the stringy Chow ring.

Euler characteristics of moduli spaces of curves

Gilberto Bini, John Harer (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let M g n be the moduli space of n -pointed Riemann surfaces of genus g . Denote by M g n ¯ the Deligne-Mumford compactification of M g n . In the present paper, we calculate the orbifold and the ordinary Euler characteristic of M g n ¯ for any g and n such that n > 2 - 2 g .

An index inequality for embedded pseudoholomorphic curves in symplectizations

Michael Hutchings (2002)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let Σ be a surface with a symplectic form, let φ be a symplectomorphism of Σ , and let Y be the mapping torus of φ . We show that the dimensions of moduli spaces of embedded pseudoholomorphic curves in × 𝕐 , with cylindrical ends asymptotic to periodic orbits of φ or multiple covers thereof, are bounded from above by an additive relative index. We deduce some compactness results for these moduli spaces. This paper establishes some of the foundations for a program with Michael Thaddeus, to...

Quantum Singularity Theory for A ( r - 1 ) and r -Spin Theory

Huijun Fan, Tyler Jarvis, Yongbin Ruan (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We give a review of our construction of a cohomological field theory for quasi-homogeneous singularities and the r -spin theory of Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob. We further prove that for a singularity W of type A our construction of the stack of W -curves is canonically isomorphic to the stack of r -spin curves described by Abramovich and Jarvis. We further prove that our theory satisfies all the Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob axioms for an r -spin virtual class. Therefore, the Faber-Shadrin-Zvonkine...

The Kodaira dimension of the moduli space of Prym varieties

Gavril Farkas, Katharina Ludwig (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the enumerative geometry of the moduli space g of Prym varieties of dimension g - 1 . Our main result is that the compactication of g is of general type as soon as g > 13 and g is different from 15. We achieve this by computing the class of two types of cycles on g : one defined in terms of Koszul cohomology of Prym curves, the other defined in terms of Raynaud theta divisors associated to certain vector bundles on curves. We formulate a Prym–Green conjecture on syzygies of Prym-canonical...

Essential dimension of moduli of curves and other algebraic stacks

Patrick Brosnan, Zinovy Reichstein, Angelo Vistoli (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In this paper we consider questions of the following type. Let k be a base field and K / k be a field extension. Given a geometric object X over a field K (e.g. a smooth curve of genus g ), what is the least transcendence degree of a field of definition of X over the base field k ? In other words, how many independent parameters are needed to define X ? To study these questions we introduce a notion of essential dimension for an algebraic stack. Using the resulting theory, we give a complete...

On a number theoretic conjecture on positive integral points in a 5-dimensional tetrahedron and a sharp estimate of the Dickman–De Bruijn function

Ke-Pao Lin, Xue Luo, Stephen S.-T. Yau, Huaiqing Zuo (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

It is well known that getting the estimate of integral points in right-angled simplices is equivalent to getting the estimate of Dickman-De Bruijn function ψ ( x , y ) which is the number of positive integers x and free of prime factors > y . Motivating from the Yau Geometry Conjecture, the third author formulated the Number Theoretic Conjecture which gives a sharp polynomial upper estimate that counts the number of positive integral points in n-dimensional ( n 3 ) real right-angled simplices. In this...

Bounds on the denominators in the canonical bundle formula

Enrica Floris (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

In this work we study the moduli part in the canonical bundle formula of an lc-trivial fibration whose general fibre is a rational curve. If r is the Cartier index of the fibre, it was expected that 12 r would provide a bound on the denominators of the moduli part. Here we prove that such a bound cannot even be polynomial in r , we provide a bound N ( r ) and an example where the smallest integer that clears the denominators of the moduli part is N ( r ) / r . Moreover we prove that even locally the denominators...

The generalized Hodge and Bloch conjectures are equivalent for general complete intersections

Claire Voisin (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We prove that Bloch’s conjecture is true for surfaces with p g = 0 obtained as 0 -sets X σ of a section σ of a very ample vector bundle on a variety X with “trivial” Chow groups. We get a similar result in presence of a finite group action, showing that if a projector of the group acts as 0 on holomorphic 2 -forms of  X σ , then it acts as 0 on  0 -cycles of degree 0 of  X σ . In higher dimension, we also prove a similar but conditional result showing that the generalized Hodge conjecture for general X σ ...

Moduli of smoothness of functions and their derivatives

Z. Ditzian, S. Tikhonov (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Relations between moduli of smoothness of the derivatives of a function and those of the function itself are investigated. The results are for L p ( T ) and L p [ - 1 , 1 ] for 0 < p < ∞ using the moduli of smoothness ω r ( f , t ) p and ω φ r ( f , t ) p respectively.

Exotic Deformations of Calabi-Yau Manifolds

Paolo de Bartolomeis, Adriano Tomassini (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We introduce Quantum Inner State manifolds (QIS manifolds) as (compact) 2 n -dimensional symplectic manifolds ( M , κ ) endowed with a κ -tamed almost complex structure J and with a nowhere vanishing and normalized section ϵ of the bundle Λ J n , 0 ( M ) satisfying the condition ¯ J ϵ = 0 . We study the moduli space 𝔐 of QIS deformations of a given Calabi-Yau manifold, computing its tangent space...

Explicit Teichmüller curves with complementary series

Carlos Matheus, Gabriela Weitze-Schmithüsen (2013)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We construct an explicit family of arithmetic Teichmüller curves 𝒞 2 k , k , supporting SL ( 2 , ) -invariant probabilities μ 2 k such that the associated SL ( 2 , ) -representation on  L 2 ( 𝒞 2 k , μ 2 k ) has complementary series for every k 3 . Actually, the size of the spectral gap along this family goes to zero. In particular, the Teichmüller geodesic flow restricted to these explicit arithmetic Teichmüller curves 𝒞 2 k has arbitrarily slow rate of exponential mixing.

Invariance of the parity conjecture for p -Selmer groups of elliptic curves in a D 2 p n -extension

Thomas de La Rochefoucauld (2011)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We show a p -parity result in a D 2 p n -extension of number fields L / K ( p 5 ) for the twist 1 η τ : W ( E / K , 1 η τ ) = ( - 1 ) 1 η τ , X p ( E / L ) , where E is an elliptic curve over K , η and τ are respectively the quadratic character and an irreductible representation of degree 2 of Gal ( L / K ) = D 2 p n , and X p ( E / L ) is the p -Selmer group. The main novelty is that we use a congruence result between ε 0 -factors (due to Deligne) for the determination of local root numbers in bad cases (places of additive reduction above 2 and 3). We also give applications to the p -parity conjecture...

A descent map for curves with totally degenerate semi-stable reduction

Shahed Sharif (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let K be a local field of residue characteristic p . Let C be a curve over K whose minimal proper regular model has totally degenerate semi-stable reduction. Under certain hypotheses, we compute the prime-to- p rational torsion subgroup on the Jacobian of C . We also determine divisibility of line bundles on C , including rationality of theta characteristics and higher spin structures. These computations utilize arithmetic on the special fiber of C .

𝒟 -bundles and integrable hierarchies

David Ben-Zvi, Thomas Nevins (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the geometry of 𝒟 -bundles—locally projective 𝒟 -modules—on algebraic curves, and apply them to the study of integrable hierarchies, specifically the multicomponent Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) and spin Calogero–Moser (CM) hierarchies. We show that KP hierarchies have a geometric description as flows on moduli spaces of 𝒟 -bundles; in particular, we prove that the local structure of 𝒟 -bundles is captured by the full Sato Grassmannian. The rational, trigonometric, and elliptic solutions...

Frobenius nonclassicality with respect to linear systems of curves of arbitrary degree

Nazar Arakelian, Herivelto Borges (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

For each integer s ≥ 1, we present a family of curves that are q -Frobenius nonclassical with respect to the linear system of plane curves of degree s. In the case s=2, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for such curves to be q -Frobenius nonclassical with respect to the linear system of conics. In the q -Frobenius nonclassical cases, we determine the exact number of q -rational points. In the remaining cases, an upper bound for the number of q -rational points will follow from Stöhr-Voloch...

On a conjecture of Dekking : The sum of digits of even numbers

Iurie Boreico, Daniel El-Baz, Thomas Stoll (2014)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let q 2 and denote by s q the sum-of-digits function in base q . For j = 0 , 1 , , q - 1 consider # { 0 n &lt; N : s q ( 2 n ) j ( mod q ) } . In 1983, F. M. Dekking conjectured that this quantity is greater than N / q and, respectively, less than N / q for infinitely many N , thereby claiming an absence of a drift (or Newman) phenomenon. In this paper we prove his conjecture.

An a b c d theorem over function fields and applications

Pietro Corvaja, Umberto Zannier (2011)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We provide a lower bound for the number of distinct zeros of a sum 1 + u + v for two rational functions u , v , in term of the degree of u , v , which is sharp whenever u , v have few distinct zeros and poles compared to their degree. This sharpens the “ a b c d -theorem” of Brownawell-Masser and Voloch in some cases which are sufficient to obtain new finiteness results on diophantine equations over function fields. For instance, we show that the Fermat-type surface x a + y a + z c = 1 contains only finitely many rational or elliptic...

Multiple end solutions to the Allen-Cahn equation in 2

Michał Kowalczyk, Yong Liu, Frank Pacard (2013-2014)

Séminaire Laurent Schwartz — EDP et applications

Similarity:

An entire solution of the Allen-Cahn equation Δ u = f ( u ) , where f is an odd function and has exactly three zeros at ± 1 and 0 , e.g. f ( u ) = u ( u 2 - 1 ) , is called a 2 k end solution if its nodal set is asymptotic to 2 k half lines, and if along each of these half lines the function u looks (up to a multiplication by - 1 ) like the one dimensional, odd, heteroclinic solution H , of H ' ' = f ( H ) . In this paper we present some recent advances in the theory of the multiple end solutions. We begin with the description of the moduli space...

Green's generic syzygy conjecture for curves of even genus lying on a K3 surface

Claire Voisin (2002)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider the generic Green conjecture on syzygies of a canonical curve, and particularly the following reformulation thereof: For a smooth projective curve C of genus g in characteristic 0, the condition Cliff C > l is equivalent to the fact that K g - l ' - 2 , 1 ( C , K C ) = 0 , l ' l . We propose a new approach, which allows up to prove this result for generic curves C of genus g ( C ) and gonality gon(C) in the range g ( C ) 3 + 1 gon(C) g ( C ) 2 + 1 .
