In this article, we construct a non-commutative crepant resolution (=NCCR) of a minimal nilpotent orbit closure $\overline{B(1)}$ of type A, and study relations between an NCCR and crepant resolutions $Y$ and $Y^+$ of $\overline{B(1)}$.…

For any finitely generated abelian group $Q$, we reduce the problem of classification of $Q$-graded simple Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of "good" characteristic to the problem of classification of gradings on simple Lie…

We consider the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of a simple, simply connected algebraic group over a field of large positive characteristic. For each nilpotent orbit $\mathcal{O} \subseteq \mathfrak{g}$ we choose a representative $e\in…

We check that the statement of Hikita conjecture holds for the case of the minimal nilpotent orbit of a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of type ADE and $\mathbb{C} ^2 / \Gamma$.

We show that the specialized quantum D-module of the equivariant quantum cohomology ring of the minimal resolution of an ADE singularity is isomorphic to the D-module of graded traces on the minimal nilpotent orbit in the Lie algebra of the…

We prove the generalised Mukai conjecture for $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial spherical Fano varieties. In this case, a stronger inequality holds featuring an extra term - the minimum absolute complexity of a log Calabi-Yau pair - which measures how…

We give a new, geometric proof of the section conjecture for fixed points of finite group actions on projective curves of positive genus defined over the field of complex numbers, as well as its natural nilpotent analogue. As a part of our…

We give a simple description of the closure of the nilpotent orbits appearing as associated varieties of admissible affine vertex algebras in terms of primitive ideals.

Consider the W-algebra $W$ attached to the smallest nilpotent orbit in a simple Lie algebra $\frak g$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We show that if an analogue of the Gelfand-Kirillov conjecture holds for such a…

Let G be a noncompact real semisimple Lie group. The regular coadjoint orbits of G can be partitioned into a finite set of types. We show that on each regular orbit, the Iwasawa decomposition induces a left-invariant foliation which is…

We give examples over arbitrary fields of rings of invariants that are not finitely generated. The group involved can be as small as three copies of the additive group, as in Mukai's examples over the complex numbers. The failure of finite…

We consider a natural generalisation of symmetric Nakayama algebras, namely, symmetric special biserial algebras with at most one non-uniserial indecomposable projective module. We describe the basic algebras explicitly by quiver and…

Wierzba and Wisniewski proved that in dimension 4, every bimeromorphic map of hyperkahler manifolds is represented as a composition of Mukai flops. Hu and Yau conjectured that this result can be generalized to arbitrary dimension. They…

In this note, we reduce various conjectures in birational geometry, including Shokurov conjecture on singularities of the base of log Calabi-Yau fibrations of Fano type and boundedness conjecture for rationally connected Calabi-Yau…

We give a reduction of the irregular case for the effective non-vanishing conjecture by virtue of the Fourier-Mukai transform. As a consequence, we reprove that the effective non-vanishing conjecture holds on algebraic surfaces.

We treat the topic of the closures of the nilpotent orbits of the Lie algebras of Exceptional groups through their descriptions as moduli spaces, in terms of Hilbert series and the highest weight generating functions for their…

In this paper we analyze four examples of birational transformations between local Calabi-Yau 3-folds: two crepant resolutions, a crepant partial resolution, and a flop. We study the effect of these transformations on genus-zero…

We prove Hodge-theoretic formulas for the $\mathbb{Q}$-factoriality defect of a normal projective variety, and for the local analytic $\mathbb{Q}$-factoriality defect of an analytic germ of a normal variety. These formulas lead to…

We investigate a construction providing pairs of Calabi-Yau varieties described as zero loci of pushforwards of a hyperplane section on a roof as described by Kanemitsu. We discuss the implications of such construction at the level of Hodge…

In this paper we develop a Morse-like theory in order to decompose birational maps and morphisms of smooth projective varieties defined over a field of characteristic zero into more elementary steps which are locally \'etale isomorphic to…
