In continuation of our paper in Math. Ann. 333 we classify smooth complex projective threefolds X with -K_X big and nef but not ample and Picard number 2, whose anticanonical map is small. We assume also that the Mori contraction of X and…

Seshadri constants on abelian surfaces are fully understood in the case of Picard number one. Little is known so far for simple abelian surfaces of higher Picard number. In this paper we investigate principally polarized abelian surfaces…

The $abc$ conjecture predicts a highly non trivial upper bound for the height of an algebraic point in terms of its discriminant and its intersection with a fixed divisor of the projective line counted without multiplicity. We describe the…

We show that surface bundles over surfaces with base and fiber of genus at least 2 have non-vanishing simplicial volume.

A famous theorem of Shokurov states that a general anticanonical divisor of a smooth Fano threefold is a smooth K3 surface. This is quite surprising since there are several examples where the base locus of the anticanonical system has…

We reduce the Abundance Conjecture in dimension 4 to the following numerical statement: if the canonical divisor K is nef and has maximal nef dimension, then K is big. From this point of view, we ``classify'' in dimension 2 nef divisors…

Using the theory of plugs and the self-insertion construction due to the second author, we prove that a foliation of any codimension of any manifold can be modified in a real analytic or piecewise-linear fashion so that all minimal sets…

In the 1970s, Fathi, having proven that the group of compactly supported volume-preserving homeomorphisms of the $n$-ball is simple for $n \ge 3$, asked if the same statement holds in dimension $2$. We show that the group of compactly…

In this paper, we study the positivity property of the tangent bundle $T_X$ of a Fano threefold $X$ with Picard number 2. We determine the bigness of the tangent bundle of the whole 36 deformation types. Our result shows that $T_X$ is big…

The paper consists of three parts. In the first of them different kinds stability are discussed. In particular, the stability concept with respect to nef divisor is introduced. A structure of rigid and superrigid vector bundles on smooth…

We propose a new construction which associates to any ample (or big) line bundle $L$ on a projective manifold $X$ a canonical growth condition (i.e. a choice of a psh function well-defined up to a bounded term) on the tangent space $T_p X$…

In this article we prove new results on projective normality and normal presentation of adjunction bundle associated to an ample and globally generated line bundle on higher dimensional smooth projective varieties with nef canonical bundle.…

We introduce the Seshadri region of a subvariety, a convex region packaging the classical Seshadri constants with respect to every line bundle simultaneously. We develop the theory of Seshadri regions as a measure of positivity along…

So far, Seshadri constants on abelian surfaces are completely understood only in the cases of Picard number one and on principally polarized abelian surfaces with real multiplication. Beyond that, there are partial results for products of…

In this paper, we prove a special case of Campana--Peternell's conjecture in dimension 4. Specifically, we show that a projective smooth fourfold $X$ with $c^2_1(X)\cdot c_2(X)\neq 0$ and strictly nef anti-canonical divisor $-K_X$ is a Fano…

This paper explores a new perspective on the universality of the vertical lift in tangent categories by presenting a categorification of the dimension of smooth manifolds. The universality of the vertical lift is a key part of the axioms of…

Let $X$ be a surface and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. We first obtain a lower bound for the Seshadri constant $\varepsilon(X,L,r)$, when $r \ge 3$. We then assume that $X$ is a ruled surface and study Seshadri constants on $X$ in…

The famous Nakayama conjecture states that the dominant dimension of a non-selfinjective finite dimensional algebra is finite. In \cite{Yam}, Yamagata stated the stronger conjecture that the dominant dimension of a non-selfinjective finite…

We prove that there exists a universal constant $r_3$ such that if $X$ is a smooth projective threefold over $\mathbb{C}$ with non-negative Kodaira dimension, then the linear system $|r K_X|$ admits a fibration that is birational to the…

Recently, exact agreement has been found between bulk and boundary three-point functions in AdS_3 x S^3 x T^4 with NSNS fluxes. This represents a non-trivial check of AdS/CFT correspondence beyond the supergravity approximation as it…
