Almost toric manifolds form a class of singular Lagrangian fibered symplectic manifolds that include both toric manifolds and the K3 surface. We classify closed almost toric four-manifolds up to diffeomorphism and indicate precisely the structure of all almost toric fibrations of closed symplectic four-manifolds. A key step in the proof is a geometric classification of the singular integral affine structures that can occur on the base of an almost toric fibration of a closed four-manifold. As a byproduct we provide a geometric explanation for why a generic Lagrangian fibration over the two-sphere must have 24 singular fibers.

In 1999, Dar conjectured if there is a stronger version of the celebrated Brunn-Minkowski inequality. However, as pointed out by Campi, Gardner, and Gronchi in 2011, this problem seems to be open even for planar o-symmetric convex bodies. In this paper, we give a positive answer to Dar’s conjecture for all planar convex bodies. We also give the equality condition of this stronger inequality. For planar o-symmetric convex bodies, the log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality was established by B¨or¨oczky, Lutwak, Yang, and Zhang in 2012. It is stronger than the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality, for planar o-symmetric convex bodies. Gaoyong Zhang asked if there is a general version of this inequality. Fortunately, the solution of Dar’s conjecture, especially, the definition of “dilation position”, inspires us to obtain a general version of the log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality. As expected, this inequality implies the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality for all planar convex bodies.

We compute the almost-sure Hausdorff dimension of the double points of chordal SLE$_\kappa$ for $\kappa > 4$, confirming a prediction of Duplantier--Saleur (1989) for the contours of the FK model. We also compute the dimension of the cut points of chordal SLE$_\kappa$ for $\kappa > 4$ as well as analogous dimensions for the radial and whole-plane SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ processes for $\kappa > 0$. We derive these facts as consequences of a more general result in which we compute the dimension of the intersection of two flow lines of the formal vector field $e^{ih/\chi}$, where $h$ is a Gaussian free field and $\chi > 0$, of different angles with each other and with the domain boundary.

Symmetric polynomials are polynomials that are invariant under the action of the symmetric group, and they play an integral role in mathematics. The space of quasiin- variant polynomials, polynomials that are invariant under the action of the symmetric group to a certain order, were introduced by Feigin and Veselov. These spaces are modules over the ring of symmetric polynomials, and their Hilbert series in elds of characteristic 0 were also computed by Feigin and Veselov. In this paper, we study the Hilbert series of these spaces in elds of positive char- acteristic. Braverman, Etingof, and Finkelberg recently introduced spaces of twisted quasiinvariant polynomials, a generalization of quasiinvariant polynomials in which the space is twisted by a monomial. We extend some of their results to spaces twisted by a product of smooth functions and compute the Hilbert series of the space in certain cases.
