The aim of this note is to study local and global Seshadri constants for a family of smooth surfaces with prescribed polarization. We shall first observe that given $\alpha$ being smaller than the square root of the degree of polarization,…

We develop a new approach towards obtaining lower bounds of the Seshadri constants of ample adjoint divisors on smooth projective varieties $X$ in arbitrary characteristic. Let $x\in X$ be a closed point and $A$ an ample divisor on $X$. If…

In "Seshadri fibrations of algebraic surfaces" [arXiv:0709.2592v1] we showed that if the multiple point Seshadri constants of an ample line bundle on a smooth projective surface in very general points satisfy certain inequality then the…

A broadly applicable geometric approach for constructing nef divisors on blow ups of algebraic surfaces at n general points is given; it works for all surfaces in all characteristics for any n. This construction is used to obtain…

Given an etale quotient q:X->Y of smooth projective varieties we relate the simple Seshadri constant of a line bundle M on Y with the multiple Seshadri constant of q*M in the points of the fiber. We apply this method to compute the Seshadri…

We study families of curves covering a projective surface and give lower bounds on the self-intersection of the members of such families, improving results of Ein-Lazarsfeld and Xu. We apply the obtained inequalities to get new insights on…

We examine how the Seshadri constant of an ample line bundle at a very general point of an algebraic surface can carry important global geometric information about the surface. In particular, we obtain a numerical criterion for when a…

We compute Seshadri constants $\eps(X):= \eps(\O_X(1))$ on $K3$ surfaces $X$ of degrees 6 and 8. Moreover, more generally, we prove that if $X$ is any embedded $K3$ surface of degree $2r-2 \geq 8$ in $\PP^r$ not containing lines, then $1 <…

In this article we compute Seshadri constants of ample line bundles on the blowup of Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb{F}_e$ at $r\leqslant e+3$ very general points. Similarly, we compute Seshadri constants on the blowups of certain decomposable…

Let $\pi: X_r \rightarrow \mathbb P^2$ be a blow up of $\mathbb P^2$ at $r$ distinct points $p_1,p_2,\dots, p_r$. We study lower bounds for Seshadri constants of ample line bundles on $X_r$. First, we consider the case when the points lie…

Let $X$ be a complex nonsingular projective surface and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. We study multi-point Seshadri constants of $L$ at singular points of certain arrangements of curves on $X$. We pose some questions about such…

We prove two new results for Seshadri constants on surfaces of general type. Let $X$ be a surface of general type. In the first part, inspired by \cite{B-S}, we list the possible values for the multi-point Seshadri constant…

Motivated by a similar result of Dumnicki, K\"uronya, Maclean and Szemberg under a slightly stronger hypothesis, we exhibit irrational single-point Seshadri constants on a rational surface $X$ obtained by blowing up very general points of…

In this paper, we study a relation between Seshadri constants and degrees of defining polynomials. In particular, we compute the Seshadri constants on Fano varieties obtained as complete intersections in rational homogeneous spaces of…

We prove that the Seshadri constant of a polarized abelian variety is equal to the Seshadri constant of its abelian subvariety if the Seshadri constant is relatively small with respect to its degree, or it contains an abelian divisor which…

We study Seshadri constants of certain ample vector bundles on projective varieties. Our main motivation is the following question: Under what conditions are the Seshadri constants of ample vector bundles at least 1 at all points of the…

We discuss some aspects of the behavior of specialization at a finite place of N\'eron-Severi groups of K3 surfaces over number fields. We give optimal lower bounds for the Picard number of such specializations, thus answering a question of…

In this note, we continue the study of Seshadri constants on blow-ups of Hirzebruch surfaces initiated in arXiv:2312.14555. Now we consider blow-ups of ruled surfaces more generally. We propose a conjecture for classifying all the negative…

This paper studies the Seshadri constant of an ample line bundle at a very general point, seeking a very slight improvement on the result of Ein, Kuchle, and Lazarsfeld. The main point is that couting jets more carefully yields a better…
