We show that if X is a smooth rationally connected threefold and C is a smooth projective curve then C can be embedded in X. Furthermore, a version of this property characterises rationally connected varieties of dimension at least 3. We give some...
We have conducted a study of optical and HI properties of spiral galaxies (size, luminosity, H-alpha flux distribution, circular velocity, HI gas mass) to explore the role of gas stripping as a driver of morphological evolution in clusters. We find...
We briefly review the current status of the algebraic approach to quantum field theory on globally hyperbolic spacetimes, both axiomatic -- for general field theories, and constructive -- for a linear Klein-Gordon model. We recall the concept of F-...
We classify affine rank three Tits arrangements whose roots are contained in the locus of a homogeneous cubic polynomial. We find that there exist irreducible affine Tits arrangements which are not locally spherical....

Positively-curved, oscillatory universes have recently been shown to have important consequences for the pre-inflationary dynamics of the early universe. In particular, they may allow a self-interacting scalar field to climb up its potential during...
We give a detailed presentation of $\ell$-isogeny graphs associated with ordinary elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{F}_p$. We then focus on the following inverse problem: given an abstract volcano $V$, do there always exist primes $\ell, p \in \m...
Microlensing can provide a useful tool to probe binary distributions down to low-mass limits of binary companions. In this paper, we analyze the light curves of 8 binary lensing events detected through the channel of high-magnification events during...
Adapting focal loci techniques used by Chiantini and Lopez, we provide lower bounds on the genera of curves contained in very general surfaces in Gorenstein toric threefolds. We illustrate the utility of these bounds by obtaining results on algebraic...
This paper analyses the impact of conservation by voltage reduction (CVR) on voltage stability margin (VSM) considering transmission and distribution (T&D) systems. VSM is determined by P-V curve analysis using PSSE and GridLAB-D solvers to co-simula...
We analyze five years of PLANET photometry of microlensing events toward the Galactic bulge to search for the short-duration deviations from single lens light curves that are indicative of the presence of planetary companions to the primary microle...
Condsidering a massive self-interacting phi ^6 scalar field coupled arbitrarily to a (2+1) dimensional Bianchi type-I spacetime, we evaluate the one-loop effective potential. It is found that phi ^6 potential can be regularized in (2+1) dimensional...
For each $t\in\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{-1,0,1\}$, define an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ by \begin{align*} E_t:y^2=x(x+1)(x+t^2). \end{align*} Using a formula for the root number $W(E_t)$ as a function of $t$ and assuming some standard conjectures...
We study endomorphisms of complete Noetherian local rings in the context of motivic integration. Using the notion of an auto-arc space, we introduce the (reduced) auto-Igusa zeta series at a point, which appears to measure the degree to which a varie...
With increased wind power penetration in modern power systems, wind plants are required to provide frequency support similar to conventional plants. However, for the existing frequency regulation scheme of wind turbines, the control gains in the auxi...
We prove in this paper that the action of the mapping class group on the complex of curves has noncommensurable stabilizers. Following a method due to Burger and de la Harpe, this action leads to constructions of irreducible unitary representations...
We analyze low resolution Spitzer infrared (IR) 5-14 micron spectra of the diffuse emission toward a carefully selected sample of stars. The sample is composed of sight lines toward stars that have well determined ultraviolet (UV) extinction curves a...
In this paper we present Physical Parameter Eclipse Mapping (PPEM) of UBVRI eclipse light curves of UU Aqr from high to low states. We used a simple, pure hydrogen LTE model to derive the temperature and surface density distribution in the accretio...
Following Ford et al. (2011, 2012) and Steffen et al. (2012) we derived the transit timing of 1960 Kepler KOIs using the pre-search data conditioning (PDC) light curves of the first twelve quarters of the Kepler data. For 721 KOIs with large enough S...

We consider uncharged fluids without any boost symmetry on an arbitrary curved background and classify all allowed transport coefficients up to first order in derivatives. We assume rotational symmetry and we use the entropy current formalism. The cu...
Despite the practicality of quantile regression (QR), simultaneous estimation of multiple QR curves continues to be challenging. We address this problem by proposing a Bayesian nonparametric framework that generalizes the quantile pyramid by replacin...
In this paper we define and study a generalization of the Belinson-Drinfeld Grassmannian to the case where the curve is replaced by a smooth projective surface $X$, and the trivialization data are given on loci suitably associated to a nonlinear flag...
Fessler and Gutierrez \cite{Fe,Gu} proved that if a non-singular planar map has Jacobian matrix without eigenvalues in $(0,+\infty)$, then it is injective. We prove that the same holds replacing $(0,+\infty)$ with any unbounded curve disconnecting th...
We affirmatively solve the analogue of Lord Rayleigh's conjecture on Riemannian manifolds with positive Ricci curvature for any clamped plates in 2 and 3 dimensions, and for sufficiently large clamped plates in dimensions beyond 3. These results comp...
A convex lattice polygon Delta determines a pair (S,L) of a toric surface together with an ample toric line bundle on S. The Severi degree N^{Delta,delta} is the number of delta-nodal curves in the complete linear system |L| passing through dim|L|-de...

Context. The dipole modes are the most common geometry of oscillations in roAp stars inferred from photometric measurements and are therefore of special interest for asteroseismic purposes. Aims. We present a theoretical and analytical study of the l...
A useful concept in the development of physical models on the $κ$-Minkowski noncommutative spacetime is that of a curved momentum space. This structure is not unique: several inequivalent momentum space geometries have been identified. Some are asso...
We address the question of existence of absolutely simple abelian varieties of dimension 2 with everywhere good reduction over quadratic fields. The emphasis will be given to the construction of pairs $(K,C)$, where $K$ is a quadratic number field an...
In this note, we show how certain everywhere-regular real rational function solutions of the KP1 equation ("multi-lumps") can be constructed via the polynomial analogs of theta functions from singular rational curves with cusps. We use two methods, o...

An abelian variety $A/K$ is heavenly at $\ell$ if the extension $K(A[\ell^{\infty}])/K(μ_{\ell^{\infty}}\!)$ is both pro-$\ell$ and unramified away from $\ell$. It is known that for a fixed quadratic field $K$, the number of $K$-isomorphism classes...
Heavenly abelian varieties are abelian varieties defined over number fields that exhibit constrained $\ell$-adic Galois representations for some rational prime $\ell$. At the ICMS Workshop held in November 2024, we presented evidence for two finitene...
