Building on previous work of Kollar, Ein, Lazarsfeld, and Hacon, we show that ample divisors of low degree on an abelian variety have mild singularities in case the abelian variety is simple or the degree of the polarization is two.

In recent years, a multiplier ideal defined on arbitrary varieties, so called Mather multiplier ideal, has been developed independently by Ein-Ishii-Mustata, and de Fernex-Docampo. With this new tool, we have a chance of extending some…

On an abelian variety $A$, sheaf convolution gives a Tannakian formalism for perverse sheaves. Let $X$ be an irreducible algebraic variety with generic point $\eta$. Let $K$ be a family of perverse sheaves (more precisely, a relative…

We consider families of schemes over arbitrary fields resp. analytic varieties with finitely many (not necessarily reduced) isolated non-normal singularities, in particular families of generically reduced curves. We define a modified delta…

We give a criterion for smoothness of a point in any Schubert variety in any G/B in terms of the nil Hecke ring.

We consider the Kronecker quiver and determine the relations for the specialisation to q=0 of the generic composition algebra as well as those for Reineke's composition monoid. We also obtain a normal form for the varieties occurring in the…

We extend the main vanishing theorem in a paper of de Fernex and Ein to singular varieties without assuming locally complete intersection.

We introduce higher $F$-rationality generalising $F$-rationality. We prove that a normal variety over a field of characteristic zero is $m$-rational if and only if it is $m$-$F$-rational after reduction modulo a sufficiently large prime…

Sheaves of noncommutative groups are an essential tool especially in the context of vector bundles. As known there is no real cohomology theory with values in such sheaves. This work deals with the question of under what circumstances the…

Let $M$ be a singular hyperkaehler variety, obtained as a moduli space of stable holomorphic bundles on a compact hyperkaehler manifold (alg-geom/9307008). Consider $M$ as a complex variety in one of the complex structures induced by the…

We give a short proof that essentially all questions concerning singularities of Richardson varieties reduce to corresponding questions about Schubert varieties. Consequently, we quickly deduce some new and previously known results.

This paper considers graded near-rings over a monoid G as a generalizations of the graded rings over groups, introduce certain innovative graded weakly prime ideals and graded almost prime ideals as a generalizations of graded prime ideals…

Recently, the singular support and the characteristic cycle of an \'etale sheaf on a smooth variety over a perfect field are constructed by Beilinson and Saito, respectively. In this article, we extend the singular support to a relative…

We classify all normal Schubert varieties in the affine Grassmannian of a semisimple group over an arbitrary field with special attention to small positive characteristic. The proof is elementary and relies on tangent space calculations for…

This work is concerned with categorical methods for studying singularities. Our focus is on birational derived splinters, which is a notion that extends the definition of rational singularities beyond varieties over fields of characteristic…

We give an overview of the fundamental definitions and results concerning hypersurface singularities, defined by convergent power series over an arbitrary real valued field. This approach combines, on the one hand, the classical case of…

In this article, we first establish an $L^2$-type Dolbeault isomorphism for the sheaf of logarithmic differential forms twisted by the multiplier ideal sheaf. By using this isomorphism and $L^2$-estimates equipped with a singular Hermitian…

We confirm a conjecture of Bernstein-Lunts which predicts that the characteristic variety of a generic polynomial vector field has no homogeneous involutive subvarieties besides the zero section and subvarieties of fibers over singular…

We initiate the study of the resolution of singularities properties of Nash blowups over fields of prime characteristic. We prove that the iteration of normalized Nash blowups desingularizes normal toric surfaces. We also introduce a prime…

We present a combinatorial and computational commutative algebra methodology for studying singularities of Schubert varieties of flag manifolds. We define the combinatorial notion of *interval pattern avoidance*. For "reasonable" invariants…
