Tangent structures for divided power algebras
We build a tangent structure on the category of divided power algebras using a particular notion of semidirect product. We show that this tangent structure admits an adjoint tangent structure, which involves a version of Kähler differentials, and which is similar to the Zariski cotangent space for affine schemes. We study vector fields and differential bundles for these two structures, which correspond respectively to a notion of special derivation, and to the category of modules over the unde…

Dynamical Tension Strings with Target Scale Symmetry producing DE, DM and why 4D?
In the modified measure formulation string or branes the tension appear as an additional dynamical degree of freedom . Furthermore in the presence of an additional background scalar field that couples to the strings and locally changes the tension, the tension field really dynamical and the theory has an intrinsic target space scale symmetry. When many types of strings probing the same region of space are considered this tension scalar is constrained by the requirement of quantum conformal inva…

Amid rising tensions, Poland urges citizens to 'immediately' leave Belarus: https://benborges.xyz/2025/09/26/amid-rising-tensions-poland-urges.html

"My father used to say," said Oskar, "that there isn't anything real except thoughts. Nothing is there at all unless somebody's thinking it.
He said thoughts were more real than guns. He got shot by the Russians for saying that. But the thought wasn't shot, because I'm thinking it now."
[from The River at Green Knowe, by Lucy M Boston (1959)]

Deformations of the tangent bundle of a projective hypersurface
For a nonsingular hypersurface $X \subset \mathbb{P}^n, n \geq 4,$ of degree $d \geq 2$, we show that the space $H^1(X, \End(T_X))$ of infinitesimal deformations of the tangent bundle $T_X$ has dimension ${n+d-1 \choose d} (d-1)$ and all infinitesimal deformations are unobstructed even though $H^2(X, \End(T_X))$ can be nonzero. Furthermore, we prove that the irreducible component of the moduli space of stable bundles containing the tangent bundle is a rational variety, by constructing an explic…
