We prove the exactness of the Nisnevich Gersten complex over a base under some conditions. We also obtain, as a consequence, a Nisnevich analogue of the Bloch-Ogus theorem for \'{e}tale cohomology in this setting.

Consider the projection of a smooth irreducible surface in $\mathbb{P}^3$ from a point. The uniform position principle implies that the monodromy group of such a projection from a general point in $\mathbb{P}^3$ is the whole symmetric…

By the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem, if X is a smooth quasi-projective variety and C a general curve section of X then the fundamental group of C surjects onto the fundamental group of X. Here we consider when this conclusion holds for a…

Let $C$ be a curve of genus $g$. A fundamental problem in the theory of algebraic curves is to understand maps $C \to \mathbb{P}^r$ of specified degree $d$. When $C$ is general, the moduli space of such maps is well-understood by the main…

A new approach to Nori's weak Lefschetz theorem is described. The new approach, which involves the dbar-method, avoids moving arguments and gives much stronger results. In particular, it is proved that if X and Y are connected smooth…

We prove the Lipman-Zariski conjecture for complex surface singularities of genus one, and also for those of genus two whose link is not a rational homology sphere. As an application, we characterize complex $2$-tori as the only normal…

We prove a Grothendieck-Lefschetz theorem for equivariant Picard groups of non-singular varieties with finite group actions.

We prove a Lefschetz (1,1)-Theorem for proper seminormal varieties over the complex numbers. The proof is a non-trivial geometric argument applied to the isogeny class of the Lefschetz 1-motive associated to the mixed Hodge structure on…

The paper contains a general construction which produces new examples of non simply-connected smooth projective surfaces. We analyze the resulting surfaces and their fundamental groups. Many of these fundamental groups are expected to be…

The reduced Lefschetz number, that is, the Lefschetz number minus 1, is proved to be the unique integer-valued function L on selfmaps of compact polyhedra which is constant on homotopy classes such that (1) L(fg) = L(gf), for f:X -->Y and…

We argue that for a smooth surface S, considered as a ramified cover over the projective plane branched over a nodal-cuspidal curve B one could use the structure of the fundamental group of the complement of the branch curve to understand…

We establish two-pointed Prym-Brill-Noether loci with special vanishing at two points, and determine their K-theory classes when the dimensions are as expected. The classes are derived by the applications of a formula for the K-theory of…

A theorem of Esnault, Srinivas and Viehweg asserts that if the Chow group of 0-cycles of a smooth complete complex variety decomposes, then the top-degree coherent cohomology group decomposes similarly. In this note, we prove a similar…

Employing the method of Wigner functions on curved spaces, we study classical kinetic (Boltzmann-like) equations of distribution functions for a real scalar field with the Lifshitz scaling. In particular, we derive the kinetic equation for…

Symmetry analysis can provide a suitable change of variables, i.e., in geometric terms, a suitable diffeomorphism that simplifies the given direction field, which can help significantly in solving or studying differential equations. Roughly…

We introduce the notion of lef line bundles on a complex projective manifold. We prove that lef line bundles satisfy the Hard Lefschetz Theorem, the Lefschetz Decomposition and the Hodge-Riemann Bilinear Relations. We study proper…

In this paper, we prove a general theorem concerning the analyticity of the closure of a subspace defined by a family of variations of mixed Hodge structures, which includes the analyticity of the zero loci of degenerating normal functions.…

The prime geodesic theorem for regular geodesics in a higher rank locally symmetric space is proved. An application to class numbers is given. The proof relies on a Lefschetz formula that is based on work of Andreas Juhl.

We prove Bertini type theorems and give some applications of them. The applications are in the context of Lefschetz theorem for Nori fundamental group for normal varieties as well as for geometric formal orbifolds. In another application,…

We give a constructive proof of the Hodge conjecture for complex $K3$ surfaces that does not rely on Torelli-type results. Starting with an arbitrary rational $(1,1)$-class $\alpha\in H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb{Q})$, we algorithmically build a…
