We give a sufficient condition for a first order infinitesimal deformation of a curve on a 3-fold to be obstructed. As application we construct generically non-reduced components of the Hilbert schemes of uniruled 3-folds and the Hom scheme from a general curve of genus five to a general cubic 3-fold.

We consider a family of slightly extended version of the Raynaud’s surfaces X over the field of positive characteristic with Mumford-Szpiro type polarizations Z, which have Kodaira non-vanishing H(X,Z) 6= 0. The surfaces are at least normal but smooth under a special condition. We compute the cohomologies H(X,Z) for i, n ∈ Z and study their (non-)vanishing. Finally, we give a fairly large famil...

By a combination of geometrical and configurational analysis we study the properties of absolute minimal and equilibrium states of general Mumford-Shah functionals, with applications to models of quasistatic brittle fracture propagation. The main results concern the mathematical relations between physical quantities as energy release rate and energy concentration for 3D cracks with complex shap...

Arguing against the claim that every dispositional property is grounded in some property other than itself, Stephen Mumford presents what he calls the ‘Ungrounded Argument’. If successful, the Ungrounded Argument would represent a major victory for anti-Humean metaphysics against its Humean rivals, as it would allow for the existence of primitive modality. Unfortunately, Humeans need not yet be...

the crisis of the religios legitimacy of safavids close to the end of this dynasty’s governance triggered many uprisings and rebellions in different parts of their ruling domain. sheikh baha_al_din estiri was the leader of one of the most important uprisings in khorasan. the sheikh, who has been frustrated with the safavid court and government’s indifference regarding the ozbacks’ attacks made ...
