Abstract Given a family$$\mathcal{F}$$of bipartite graphs, theZarankiewicz number$$z(m,n,\mathcal{F})$$is the maximum number of edges in an$$m$$by$$n$$bipartite graph$$G$$that does not contain any member of$$\mathcal{F}$$as a subgraph (such$$G$$is called$$\mathcal{F}$$-free). For$$1\leq \beta \lt \alpha \lt 2$$, a family$$\mathcal{F}$$of bipartite graphs is$$(\alpha,\beta )$$-smoothif for some$$\rho \gt 0$$and every$$m\leq n$$,$$z(m,n,\mathcal{F})=\rho m n^{\alpha -1}+O(n^\beta )$$. Motivated by their work on a conjecture of Erdős and Simonovits on compactness and a classic result of Andrásfai, Erdős and Sós, Allen, Keevash, Sudakov and Verstraëte proved that for any$$(\alpha,\beta )$$-smooth family$$\mathcal{F}$$, there exists$$k_0$$such that for all odd$$k\geq k_0$$and sufficiently large$$n$$, any$$n$$-vertex$$\mathcal{F}\cup \{C_k\}$$-free graph with minimum degree at least$$\rho (\frac{2n}{5}+o(n))^{\alpha -1}$$is bipartite. In this paper, we strengthen their result by showing that for every real$$\delta \gt 0$$, there exists$$k_0$$such that for all odd$$k\geq k_0$$and sufficiently large$$n$$, any$$n$$-vertex$$\mathcal{F}\cup \{C_k\}$$-free graph with minimum degree at least$$\delta n^{\alpha -1}$$is bipartite. Furthermore, our result holds under a more relaxed notion of smoothness, which include the families$$\mathcal{F}$$consisting of the single graph$$K_{s,t}$$when$$t\gg s$$. We also prove an analogous result for$$C_{2\ell }$$-free graphs for every$$\ell \geq 2$$, which complements a result of Keevash, Sudakov and Verstraëte.

            Abstract The goal of this paper is to describe certain nonlinear topological obstructions for the existence of first-order smoothings of mildly singular Calabi–Yau varieties of dimension at least$$4$$. For nodal Calabi–Yau threefolds, a necessary and sufficient linear topological condition for the existence of a first-order smoothing was first given in [Fri86]. Subsequently, Rollenske–Thomas [RT09] generalized this picture to nodal Calabi–Yau varieties of odd dimension by finding a necessary nonlinear topological condition for the existence of a first-order smoothing. In a complementary direction, in [FL22a], the linear necessary and sufficient conditions of [Fri86] were extended to Calabi–Yau varieties in every dimension with$$1$$-liminal singularities (which are exactly the ordinary double points in dimension$$3$$but not in higher dimensions). In this paper, we give a common formulation of all of these previous results by establishing analogues of the nonlinear topological conditions of [RT09] for Calabi–Yau varieties with weighted homogeneousk-liminal hypersurface singularities, a broad class of singularities that includes ordinary double points in odd dimensions.

            Abstract Let$${{\mathcal {H}}}$$be a stratum of translation surfaces with at least two singularities, let$$m_{{{\mathcal {H}}}}$$denote the Masur-Veech measure on$${{\mathcal {H}}}$$, and let$$Z_0$$be a flow on$$({{\mathcal {H}}}, m_{{{\mathcal {H}}}})$$obtained by integrating a Rel vector field. We prove that$$Z_0$$is mixing of all orders, and in particular is ergodic. We also characterize the ergodicity of flows defined by Rel vector fields, for more general spaces$$({\mathcal L}, m_{{\mathcal L}})$$, where$${\mathcal L} \subset {{\mathcal {H}}}$$is an orbit-closure for the action of$$G = \operatorname {SL}_2({\mathbb {R}})$$(i.e., an affine invariant subvariety) and$$m_{{\mathcal L}}$$is the natural measure. These results are conditional on a forthcoming measure classification result of Brown, Eskin, Filip and Rodriguez-Hertz. We also prove that the entropy of$$Z_0$$with respect to any of the measures$$m_{{{\mathcal L}}}$$is zero.more » « less

            Abstract We study the degree of an L-Lipschitz map between Riemannian manifolds, proving new upper bounds and constructing new examples. For instance, if $$X_k$$ is the connected sum of k copies of $$\mathbb CP^2$$for$$k \ge 4$$, then we prove that the maximum degree of an L-Lipschitz self-map of $$X_k$$ is between $$C_1 L^4 (\log L)^{-4}$$ and $$C_2 L^4 (\log L)^{-1/2}$$. More generally, we divide simply connected manifolds into three topological types with three different behaviors. Each type is defined by purely topological criteria. For scalable simply connected n-manifolds, the maximal degree is $$\sim L^n$$. For formal but nonscalable simply connectedn-manifolds, the maximal degree grows roughly like $$L^n (\log L)^{-\theta (1)}$$. And for nonformal simply connected n-manifolds, the maximal degree is bounded by $$L^\alpha $$ for some $$\alpha < n$$.more » « less

            Abstract We considerG, a linear algebraic group defined over$$\Bbbk $$, an algebraically closed field (ACF). By considering$$\Bbbk $$as an embedded residue field of an algebraically closed valued fieldK, we can associate to it a compactG-space$$S^\mu _G(\Bbbk )$$consisting of$$\mu $$-types onG. We show that for each$$p_\mu \in S^\mu _G(\Bbbk )$$,$$\mathrm {Stab}^\mu (p)=\mathrm {Stab}\left (p_\mu \right )$$is a solvable infinite algebraic group when$$p_\mu $$is centered at infinity and residually algebraic. Moreover, we give a description of the dimension of$$\mathrm {Stab}\left (p_\mu \right )$$in terms of the dimension ofp.more » « less
