Given a (smooth but not holomorphic) surface bundle over surface $S_g\to M\to S_h$ (where $g,h>1$, there is an induced surface group representation $$\pi_1(S_h)\to \text{SP}(2g,\mathbb R).$$ I was told that there is an associated equivariant holomorphic map $$\tilde{S_h}=\mathbb H^2\to \text{SP}(2g,\mathbb R)/U(g)...
Given a (smooth but not holomorphic) surface bundle over surface $S_g\to X\to S_h$, then there are two associated vector bundles $H^1(S_g,\mathbb C)\to E\to S_h$ and $H^{1,0}(S_g,\mathbb C)\to E_1\to S_h$, s.t. the Toledo invariant of $E$ is $\deg{E_1}$. I think I know why we have the vector bundle $H^{1,0}(S_g,\mat...
sorry if this question seems basic but my professor asked me this and it kind of left me confused, so I'm asking this here for some clarity on the matter.

There are a lot of hyperbolic trigonometric identities derived in Poincare disk model that resemble similar identities from the Euclidean geometry.

Let $P_{m}^{\left(a,b\right)}\left(s\right)$ the $m$-th [Jacobi polinomial][1]. An old result of Bateman shows that $$ \left(1-x\right)^{\alpha+\mu}\frac{P_{m}^{\left(\alpha+\mu,\beta-\mu\right)}\left(x\right)}{P_{m}^{\left(\alpha+\mu,\beta-\mu\right)}\left(1\right)}=\frac{\Gamma\left(\alpha+\mu+1\right)}{\Gamma\left(...
Let $\mathbb{Q}_{\mathrm{Br}}$ be the field of bring-jerrard rational numbers, this is, the field defined by the infinite algebraic extension $\mathbb{Q}_{\mathrm{Br}}=\mathbb{Q}(S)$, were $$S=\{\tau\in\mathbb{C}|\tau^5+p\tau+q=0,\{p,q\}\subseteq\mathbb{Q}\}$$ That $\mathbb{Q}_{\mathrm{Br}}$ is a field comes from the...
What is the least degree polynomial whose Galois group is not solvable in the field of Bring rational numbers?
Is this inequality true? $\int_{0}^{1} \int_{a}^{x} f^2(t) \, dt \, dx \leq \int_{0}^{1} f^2(t) \, dt$ I've seen something like this used in a solution, where instead of $f^2$ I had $f^{2p-2}+(f')^2$ and I didn't understand how they got there. If it helps, all i know about f is that it reaches 0 in at least 1 poin...
Double integral smaller than single integral?
The following question is from a worksheet on polynomials. The polynomial $x^3 + cx + d=0$ has a solution when $x=d$. Prove that $d$ is the only solution provided $-2 < d < 2 $, $d ≠ 0$ My initial approach to this was through long substitution by factor $(x-d)$, solve for the remainder which would equal zero and ...
How can I show that the function $h(x):= \frac{\log(x)}{1-x}$ is increasing on $\mathbb{R}_{>0}$? The derivative of $h$ is $h'(x)= \frac{x\log(x)-x+1}{x(1-x)^2}$ but I don't see why $h'(x)$ is always non-negative.
