We show that if V is a subvariety of the affine N-space defined by polynomials of degree at most d, then the sum of its $\ell$-adic Betti numbers does not exceed $2(N + 1)^{2N +1}(d+ 1)^N$. This answers a question of Katz (FFA 2001).
We verify a special case of V. V. Shokurov's conjecture about characterization of toric varieties. More precisely, let $(X,D=\sum d_iD_i)$ be a three-dimensional log variety such that $K_X+D$ is numerically trivial and $(X,D)$ has only…
Let $X$ be a toric variety. Rationally Borel-Moore homology of $X$ is isomorphic to the homology of the Koszul complex $A^T_*(X)\otimes \Lambda^\x M$, where $A^T_*(X)$ is the equivariant Chow group and $M$ is the character group of $T$.…
In this paper, we prove the degree upper bound of projective subschemes in terms of the reduction number and show that the maximal cases are only arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay subschemes with linear resolution. Furthermore, it can be shown…
It is shown that up to dimension four, the toric ideal of a quiver polytope is generated in degree two, with the only exception of the four-dimensional Birkhoff polytope. As a consequence, B{\o}gvad's conjecture holds for quiver polytopes…
In this paper we describe the notion of a toric supervariety, generalizing that of a toric variety from the classical setting. We give a combinatorial interpretation of the category of quasinormal toric supervarieties with one odd dimension…
We describe and analyze a numerical algorithm for computing the homology (Betti numbers and torsion coefficients) of real projective varieties. Here numerical means that the algorithm is numerically stable (in a sense to be made precise).…
We classify maximal tori in groups of type $F_4$ over a local or global field of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$. We prove a local-global principle for embeddings of maximal tori in groups of type $F_4$.
We define a Weil-\'etale complex with compact support for duals (in the sense of the Bloch dualizing cycles complex $\mathbb{Z}^c$) of a large class of $\mathbb{Z}$-constructible sheaves on an integral $1$-dimensional proper arithmetic…
We show the cardinality of a particular nonabelian cohomology associated to cyclic division algebras is equal to a certain partition number. This computation helps us interpret the number of conjugacy classes of maximal tori defined over an…
Let A be an ample line bundle on a projective toric variety X of dimension n. We show that if l>=n-1+p, then A^l satisfies the property N_p. Applying similar methods, we obtain a combinatorial theorem: For a given lattice polytope P we give…
We show that for all $n\geq 3$ and all primes $p$ there are infinitely many simplicial toric varieties of codimension $n$ in the $2n$-dimensional affine space whose minimum number of defining equations is equal to $n$ in characteristic $p$,…
We compute the dimension of the Hilbert scheme of subvarieties of positive dimension in projective space which are cut by maximal minors of a matrix with polynomial entries.
We give new estimates of lengths of extremal rays of birational type for toric varieties. We can see that our new estimates are the best by constructing some examples explicitly. As applications, we discuss the nefness and…
Let $K/k$ be a finite Galois extension and $\pi = \fn{Gal}(K/k)$. An algebraic torus $T$ defined over $k$ is called a $\pi$-torus if $T\times_{\fn{Spec}(k)} \fn{Spec}(K)\simeq \bm{G}_{m,K}^n$ for some integer $n$. The set of all algebraic…
Given a complex algebraic variety X, we define a natural number called the motivic dimension which measures the amount of transcendental (co)homology of X. It is zero precisely when all the (co)homolgy is spanned by algebraic cycles. Most…
The Buchsbaum-Eisenbud-Horrocks Conjecture predicts that if M is a non-zero module of finite length and finite projective dimension over a local ring R of dimension d, then the i-th Betti number of M is at least d choose i. This conjecture…
We prove upper bounds on the sum of Betti numbers of tropical prevarieties in dense and sparse settings. In the dense setting the bound is in terms of the volume of Minkowski sum of Newton polytopes of defining tropical polynomials, or,…
Given a matrix Schubert variety $\overline{X_\pi}$, it can be written as $\overline{X_\pi}=Y_\pi\times \mathbb{C}^q$ (where $q$ is maximal possible). We characterize when $Y_{\pi}$ is toric (with respect to a $(\mathbb{C}^*)^{2n-1}$-action)…
In this paper we introduce the notion of pure non-characteristically nilpotent Lie algebra and under a condition we prove that a complex maximal extension of a finite-dimensional pure non-characteristically nilpotent Lie algebra is…
