Consider a smooth projective family of canonically polarized complex manifolds over a smooth quasi-projective complex base U, and suppose the family is non-isotrivial. If Y is a smooth compactification of U, such that D := Y U is a simple…
Motivated by the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture, we study fibre spaces whose total space has trivial canonical bundle. Especially, we are interest in Calabi-Yau varieties with fibre structure. In this paper, we only consider semi-stable…
Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g\geq 1$ over a number field $K$ with good reduction outside a finite set of places $S$ of $K$. We prove that $C$ has a Weierstrass model over the ring of integers of $K$ with height effectively…
Proven by A. Parshin and S. Arakelov in the early 70's, Shafaverich hyperbolicity conjecture states that a family of curves of genus $g\ge2$ parametrized by a non hyperbolic curve (\emph{i.e.} isomorphic to $\mathbb{P}^1$, $\mathbb{C}$,…
We consider a general fibre of given length in a generic projection of a va- riety. Under the assumption that the fibre is of local embedding dimension 2 or less, an assumption which can be checked in many cases, we prove that the fibre is…
We characterize the global symmetries for the conjecturally complete collection of six dimensional superconformal field theories (6D SCFTs) which are realizable in F-theory and have no frozen singularities. We provide comprehensive checks…
In this paper we prove the birational superrigidity of Fano-Mori fibre spaces $\pi\colon V\to S$, every fibre of which is a complete intersection of type $d_1\cdot d_2$ in the projective space ${\mathbb P}^{d_1+d_2}$, satisfying certain…
The proof of the celebrated Viehweg's hyperbolicity conjecture is a consequence of two remarkable results: Viehweg and Zuo's existence results for global pluri-differential forms induced by variation in a family of canonically po-larised…
We formulate a tropical analogue of Grothendieck's section conjecture: that for every stable graph G of genus g>2, and every field k, the generic curve with reduction type G over k satisfies the section conjecture. We prove many cases of…
We find a geometric invariant of isotopy classes of strongly irreducible Heegaard splittings of toroidal 3-manifolds. Combining this invariant with a theorem of R Weidmann, proved here in the appendix, we show that a closed, totally…
Let $f:X\rightarrow Y$ be a generically smooth morphism between irreducible smooth projective curves over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. We prove that the vector bundle $((f_*{\mathcal O}_X)/{\mathcal O}_Y)^*$ is…
We conjecture a formula for the virtual elliptic genera of moduli spaces of rank 2 sheaves on minimal surfaces $S$ of general type. We express our conjecture in terms of the Igusa cusp form $\chi_{10}$ and Borcherds type lifts of three…
Let $Y$ be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension $N+1$, $L$ an invertible sufficiently ample sheaf, $X\in |L|$ a smooth hypersurface and $\lambda\in F^kH^N(X,C)$ a vanishing cohomology class, where $F^{*}$ is the Hodge filtration…
This paper generalizes the easy addition formula. Given a normal variety $X$ with an invertible sheaf $L$, inequalities are found bounding $\ka(X,L)$ from above based on the behavior of $L$ restricted to a subvariety or to a pair of…
Let $f:X\rightarrow Z$ be a separable fibration of relative dimension 1 between smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic. We prove the subadditivity of Kodaira dimension…
A conjecture, recently stated by Flach and Morin, relates the action of the monodromy on the Galois invariant part of the p-adic Beilinson-Hyodo-Kato cohomology of the generic fiber of a scheme defined over a DVR of mixed characteristic to…
We prove an unconditional (but slightly weakened) version of the main result of our earlier paper with the same title, which was, starting from dimension $4$, conditional to the Lefschetz standard conjecture. Let $X$ be a variety with…
We prove the analogue of Viehweg's hyperbolicity conjecture for Whitney equisingular families of projective varieties with Gorenstein rational singularities whose geometric generic fiber has a good minimal model. Namely, for such families…
Let $X$ be a cubic fourfold in $P^5_{C}$. We prove that, assuming the Hodge conjecture for the product $S \times S$, where $S$ is a complex surface, and the finite dimensionality of the Chow motive $h(S)$, there are at most a countable…
The subject of the present paper is Grothendieck's Lefschetz standard conjecture $B(X)$. Our main result is that, if $X$ is a projective smooth variety of dimension $n$ and the conjecture $B({\cal Y})$ holds for the generic fibre ${\cal Y}$…
