Ibadan Lectures on Toric Varieties
Toric varieties are perhaps the most accessible class of algebraic varieties. They often arise as varieties parameterized by monomials, and their structure may be completely understood through objects from geometric combinatorics.

Lattices in function fields and applications
Abstract In recent decades, the use of ideas from Minkowski's Geometry of Numbers has gained recognition as a helpful tool in bounding the number of solutions to modular congruences with variables from short intervals. In 1941, Mahler introduced an analogue to the Geometry of Numbers in function fields over finite fields.

A sharp higher order Sobolev embedding
Abstract We obtain sharp embeddings from the Sobolev space W0k,2(−1,1)$W^{k,2}_0(-1,1)$ into the space L1(−1,1)$L^1(-1,1)$ and determine the extremal functions. This improves on a previous estimate of the sharp constants of these embeddings due to Kalyabin.

A new construction of forests with low visibility
Abstract A set of points with finite density is constructed in Rd$\mathbb {R}^d$, with d⩾2$d\geqslant 2$, by adding points to a Poisson process such that any line segment of length Oε−(d−1)lnε−1$O\left(\varepsilon ^{-(d-1)}\ln \varepsilon ^{-1}\right)$ in Rd$\mathbb {R}^d$ will contain one of the points of the set within distance ε$\varepsilon$ of it ...

Transitive factorizations of permutations and geometry [PDF]
We give an account of our work on transitive factorizations of permutations. The work has had impact upon other areas of mathematics such as the enumeration of graph embeddings, random matrices, branched covers, and the moduli spaces of curves.
