Let $X_r$ denote the blow-up of the hyperelliptic surface $X$ at $r$ very general points. In this paper, we first provide a criterion for the ampleness of a line bundle on $X_r$ and compare it with an existing result. We then study the…

Let $X^n_{r,s}$ denote the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^n$ along $r$ general lines and $s$ general points. In this paper, we focus on $l$-very ample line bundles on $X^n_{0,s}$ and investigate their Seshadri constants with some restrictions on…

In this paper we will propose a new method to investigate Seshadri constants, namely by means of (nested) Hilbert schemes. This will allow us to use the geometry of the latter spaces, for example the computations of the nef cone via…

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective curve, and let $E$ be a vector bundle on $X$ which is not semistable. For a suitably chosen integer $r$, let $\text{Gr}(E)$ be the Grassmann bundle over $X$ that parametrizes the quotients of the…

We study the Seshadri constants on geometrically ruled surfaces. The unstable case is completely solved. Moreover, we give some bounds for the stable case. We apply these results to compute the Seshadri constant of the rational and elliptic…

In this paper we explore the connection between Seshadri constants and the generation of jets. It is well-known that one way to view Seshadri constants is to consider them as measuring the rate of growth of the number of jets that multiples…

Let $X = \mathbb{P}(E_1) \times_C \mathbb{P}(E_2)$ where $C$ is a smooth curve and let $E_1$, $E_2$ be vector bundles over $C$. In this paper, we extend the results in \cite{K-M-R} by computing the nef cone of $X$ without restriction on the…

Let $X$ be a smooth variety and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. If $\pi^{alg}_{1}(X)$ is large, we show that the Seshadri constant $\epsilon(p^{*}L)$ can be made arbitrarily large by passing to a finite \'etale cover…

We give the lower bound on Seshadri constants for the case of very ample line bundles on threefolds. We consider the situation when the Seshadri constant is strictly less than 2 and give a version of Bauer's theorem \cite[Theorem 2.1]{B1}…

We give a bound for the multiple Seshadri constants on surfaces with Picard number 1. The result is a natural extension of the bound of A. Steffens for simple Seshadri constants. In particular, we prove that the Seshadri constant…

The purpose of this note is to point out an elementary but somewhat surprising connection between the work of Buser and Sarnak on lengths of periods of abelian varieties and the Seshadri constants measuring the local positivity of theta…

We prove that projectivity is an open condition for deformations of algebraic spaces with rational singularities. V.2: references updated and corrected.

We compute in this note the Seshadri constants of the anticanonical bundle at every point of Del Pezzo surfaces. During the proof, we enlight the role of rational curves in our computations. We present then two exemples where the positivity…

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…

Let $E$ be a vector bundle of rank $n$ on $\mathbb{P}^1$. Fix a positive integer $d$. Let $\mathcal{Q}(E,d)$ denote the Quot scheme of torsion quotients of $E$ of degree $d$ and let $Gr(E,d)$ denote the Grassmann bundle that parametrizes…

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…

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…

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…

We prove semicontinuity properties for local positivity invariants of big and nef divisors. The usual definition of Seshadri constant and asymptotic order of vanishing along a subvariety is extended to include all seminorms in the Berkovich…

Given a smooth complex projective variety $X$ and an ample line bundle $L$ on $X$. Fix a point $x\in X$. We consider the question, are there conditions which guarantee the maxima of the Seshadri constant of $L$ at $x$, i.e $\eps(L,x)=\root…
