The period-index problem for fields of transcendence degree $2$

Using geometric methods we prove the standard period-index conjecture for the Brauer group of a field of transcendence degree $2$ over $\mathbf{F}_p$.

Almost contact 5-manifolds are contact

The existence of a contact structure is proved in any homotopy class of almost contact structures on a closed $5$-dimensional manifold.

A polynomial upper bound on Reidemeister moves

We prove that any diagram of the unknot with $c$ crossings may be reduced to the trivial diagram using at most $(236 \,c)^{11}$ Reidemeister moves.

Rationality of $W$-algebras: principal nilpotent cases

We prove the rationality of all the minimal series principal $W$-algebras discovered by Frenkel, Kac and Wakimoto, thereby giving a new family of rational and $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebras. A...

A proof of Demailly’s strong openness conjecture

In this article, we solve the strong openness conjecture on the multiplier ideal sheaf associated to any plurisubharmonic function, which was posed by Demailly.

Let $\pi$ be an $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb Z)$ Hecke-Maass cusp form satisfying the Ramanujan conjecture and the Selberg-Ramanujan conjecture, and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $M$,...

Isolation, equidistribution, and orbit closures for the...

We prove results about orbit closures and equidistribution for the $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ action on the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces, which are analogous to the theory of unipotent...

Tightness is preserved by Legendrian surgery

This paper describes a characterization of tightness of closed contact 3-manifolds in terms of supporting open book decompositions. The main result is that tightness of a closed contact 3-manifold is...

On Schmidt and Summerer parametric geometry of numbers

Recently, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer introduced a new theory that allowed them to recover the main known inequalities relating the usual exponents of Diophantine approximation to a point in...
