Let G be a semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. In this note, we show that an irreducible closed subvariety of the flag variety of G is compatibly split by the unique canonical Frobenius…
In "Frobenius Categories versus Brauer Blocks" we have proved some universality of the so-called localizing functor associated with a Frobenius $P$-category $F$, where $P$ is a finite $p$-group, with respect to the coherent $F$-localities…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective algebraic variety over $Z/p$, which has a flat lift to a scheme $X'$ over $Z/p^2$. If the absolute Frobenius morphism $F$ on $X$ lifts to a morphism on $X'$, then an old trick by Mazur shows that push-down of…
We provide a family of examples where the $F$-pure threshold and the log canonical threshold of a polynomial are different, but where $p$ does not divide the denominator of the $F$-pure threshold (compare with an example of…
We introduce and investigate a category-theoretic abstraction of the standard "system-solution" adjunction in affine algebraic geometry. We then look further into these geometric adjunctions at different levels of generality, from syntactic…
We prove that for $X$ a quasi-compact $\mathbb{F}_p$-scheme with affine diagonal (e.g.\ $X$ quasi-compact and separated) there is a t-exact equivalence $\mathcal D(\mathrm{Frob}(\mathrm{QCoh}(X),F_*)) \to \mathrm{Frob}(\mathcal…
We prove that if $\phi:(X,0)\to (X,0)$ is a finite endomorphism of an isolated singularity such that $\operatorname{deg}(\phi)\geq 2$ and $\phi$ is \'etale in codimension 1, then $X$ is $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein and log canonical.
Fix a prime number $p$. Inspired by the notion of $F$-pure or $F$-split singularities, we study the condition that a Noetherian ring with $p$ in its Jacobson radical is pure inside some perfectoid (classical) ring, a condition we call…
Using the theory of Frobenius singularities, we show that 13mK_X + 45mA is very ample for an ample Cartier divisor A on a Kawamata log terminal surface X with Gorenstein index m, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic…
Let $(R,\Delta+D)$ be a log $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein pair where $R$ is a Noetherian, $F$-finite, normal, local domain of characteristic $p > 0$, $\Delta$ is an effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor and $D$ is an integral $\mathbb{Q}$-Cartier…
In differential algebra, a proper scheme $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ with a derivation $\partial$ on it descends to the field of constants $K^\partial$ if $X$ itself lifts the derivation $\partial$. This is a result…
Let $X$ be a generic determinantal affine variety over a perfect field of characteristic $p \geq 0$ and $P \subset X$ be a standard prime divisor generator of $\mathrm{Cl}(X) \cong \mathbb{Z}$. We prove that the pair $(X,P)$ is purely…
We determine explicitly the irreducible components of the singular locus of any Schubert variety for GL_n(K), K being an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. We also describe the generic singularities along these…
Given an exact functor between triangulated categories which admits both adjoints and whose cotwist is either zero or an autoequivalence, we show how to associate a unique full triangulated subcategory of the codomain on which the functor…
Let $A$ be an excellent two-dimensional normal local ring containing an algebraically closed field and let $X\to \mathrm{Spec} (A)$ be a resolution of singularity. We prove a theorem giving a condition under which the dimension of the…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over an algebraically field $k$ with ${\rm char}(k)=p>0$ and $F:X\to X_1$ be the relative Frobenius morphism. When ${\rm dim}(X)=1$, we prove that $F_*W$ is a stable bundle for any stable bundle $W$…
Consider a polynomial $f$ defined over a field $k$, the multiplicity is perhaps the most naive measurement of the singularities of $f$. This paper describes the first steps toward understanding a much more subtle measure of singularities…
Using a suitable notion of principal G-bundle, defined relative to an arbitrary cartesian category, it is shown that principal bundles can be characterised as adjunctions that stably satisfy Frobenius reciprocity. The result extends from G,…
We introduce the concept of higher $F$-injectivity, a generalisation of $F$-injectivity. We prove that an isolated singularity over a field of characteristic zero is $k$-Du Bois if it is $k$-$F$-injective after reductions modulo infinitely…
Let $Y$ be a generic link of a subvariety $X$ of a nonsingular variety $A$. We give a description of the Grauert-Riemenschneider canonical sheaf of $Y$ in terms of the multiplier ideal sheaves associated to $X$ and use it to study the…
