Graph potentials and topological quantum field theories
Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 132, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract We introduce a new functional equation in birational geometry, whose solutions can be used to construct two‐dimensional topological quantum field theories (2d TQFTs), infinite‐dimensional in many interesting examples. The solutions of the equation give rise to a hierarchy of graph potentials, which, in the simplest setup, are Laurent ...

Equivariant toric geometry and Euler–Maclaurin formulae
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 3, Page 451-557, March 2026.Abstract We first investigate torus‐equivariant motivic characteristic classes of toric varieties, and then apply them via the equivariant Riemann–Roch formalism to prove very general Euler–Maclaurin‐type formulae for full‐dimensional simple lattice polytopes.

The second dual variety of rational conic bundles
Le Matematiche, 2002 The second dual variety of a Segre-Hirzebruch surface linearly normally embedded in a projective space as a 2-regular rational conic bundle is studied by relating it to the classical dual variety of another linearly normal embedding of the underlying ...

Rational points in a family of conics over F2(t)$\mathbb {F}_2(t)$
Mathematische Nachrichten, Volume 299, Issue 3, Page 496-513, March 2026.Abstract Serre famously showed that almost all plane conics over Q$\mathbb {Q}$ have no rational point. We investigate versions of this over global function fields, focusing on a specific family of conics over F2(t)$\mathbb {F}_2(t)$ which illustrates new behavior.

Birational maps that send biquadratic curves to biquadratic curves
, 2015 Recently, many papers have begun to consider so-called non-Quispel-Roberts-Thompson (QRT) birational maps of the plane. Compared to the QRT family of maps which preserve each biquadratic curve in a fibration of the plane, non-QRT maps send a biquadratic ...

Vector bundles on bielliptic surfaces: Ulrich bundles and degree of irrationality
Mathematische Nachrichten, Volume 299, Issue 3, Page 514-528, March 2026.Abstract This paper deals with two problems about vector bundles on bielliptic surfaces. The first is to give a classification of Ulrich bundles on such surfaces S$S$, which depends on the topological type of S$S$. In doing so, we study the weak Brill–Noether property for moduli spaces of sheaves with isotropic Mukai vector. Adapting an idea of Moretti

Osculating geometry and higher‐order distance Loci
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract We discuss the problem of optimizing the distance function from a given point, subject to polynomial constraints. A key algebraic invariant that governs its complexity is the Euclidean distance degree, which pertains to first‐order tangency. We focus on the data locus of points possessing at least one critical point of the distance function ...

The motive of the Hilbert scheme of points in all dimensions
Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 132, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract We prove a closed formula for the generating series Zd(t)$\mathsf {Z}_d(t)$ of the motives [Hilbd(An)0]$[\operatorname{Hilb}^d({\mathbb {A}}^n)_0]$ in K0(VarC)$K_0(\operatorname{Var}_{{\mathbb {C}}})$ of punctual Hilbert schemes, summing over n$n$, for fixed d>0$d>0$.

Hypergeometric motives from Euler integral representations
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract We revisit certain one‐parameter families of affine covers arising naturally from Euler's integral representation of hypergeometric functions. We introduce a partial compactification of this family. We show that the zeta function of the fibers in the family can be written as an explicit product of L$L$‐series attached to nondegenerate ...
