This paper explores the geometry of the space of codimension-2 submanifolds. We implicitly represent these submanifolds by a class of complex-valued functions. We show that the space of all these implicit representations admits a prequantum…
Consider a smooth projective curve and a given embedding into projective space via a sufficiently positive line bundle. We can form the secant variety of $k$-planes through the curve. These are singular varieties, with each secant variety…
Let $k$ be any field. Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}_k^N$ be a degree $d \geq 2$ hypersurface. Under some conditions, we prove that if $X(K) \neq \emptyset$ for some extension $K/k$ with $n:=[K:k] \geq 2$ and $\gcd(n,d)=1$, then $X(L) \neq…
In this paper, we show how to construct a special class of ruled hypersurfaces in the nonflat complex space forms $\mathbb{CP}^n$ and $\mathbb{C}H^n$. This is done by taking an arbitrary smooth curve in a totally geodesic (complex)…
Let X --> B be a holomorphic submersion between compact Kahler manifolds of any dimension, whose fibres and base have no non-zero holomorphic vector fields and whose fibres all admit constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics. This article…
A deep conjecture on torsion anomalous varieties states that if $V$ is a weak-transverse variety in an abelian variety, then the complement $V^{ta}$ of all $V$-torsion anomalous varieties is open and dense in $V$. We prove some cases of…
Let X be an arbitrary hyperbolic geodesic metric space and let G be a countable non-elementary weakly acylindrical group of isometries of X. We show that the second bounded cohomology group of G with real coefficients or with coefficients…
Let X be a standard determinantal scheme X \subset \PP^n of codimension c, i.e. a scheme defined by the maximal minors of a t \times (t+c-1) homogeneous polynomial matrix A. In this paper, we study the main features of its normal sheaf…
Let $X \subset \mathbb P^3$ be a nonsingular cubic hypersurface. Faenzi (\cite{F}) and later Pons-Llopis and Tonini (\cite{PLT}) have completely characterized ACM line bundles over $X$. As a natural continuation of their study in the…
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…
Consider a closed connected hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with constant signature (k,l) of the second quadratic form, and approaching a quadratic cone at infinity. This hypersurface divides $\mathbb{R}^n$ into two pieces. We prove that one…
We show that a proper algebraic n-dimensional scheme Y admits nontrivial vector bundles of rank n, even if Y is non-projective, provided that there is a modification containing a projective Cartier divisor that intersects the exceptional…
In this paper we classify the topological invariants of the possible branch loci of a smooth double cover $f:X\rightarrow Y$ of a K3 surface $Y$. We describe some geometric properties of $X$ which depend on the properties of the branch…
In this paper, we compute the dimensions of the 1st and 2nd cohomology groups of all the pluricanonical bundles for Hirzebruch surfaces, and the dimensions of the 1st and 2nd cohomology groups of the second pluricanonical bundles for a…
Let $E$ be an indecomposable rank two vector bundle on the projective space $\PP^n, n \ge 3$, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. It is well known that $E$ is arithmetically Buchsbaum if and only if $n=3$ and $E$ is a…
In this paper we study the problem of describing the integral subschemes within a fixed even linkage class $\L$ of subschemes in $\Pn$ of codimension two. In the case that $\L$ is not the class of arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay subschemes,…
We show that if $X$ is a smooth uniruled projective variety and $L$ a big and semiample $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor on $X$, then there exists a proper closed subset $W\subset X$ such that every subvariety $Y$ satisfying $a(Y,L)> a(X,L)$ is…
We introduce an infinite variant of hypersurface support for finite-dimensional, noncommutative complete intersections. By a noncommutative complete intersection we mean an algebra R which admits a smooth deformation $Q\to R$ by a…
We study the quantum cohomology of quasi-minuscule and quasi-cominuscule homogeneous spaces. The product of any two Schubert cells does not involve powers of the quantum parameter higher than 2. With the help of the quantum to classical…
We provide a parametric construction in terms of minimal surfaces of the Euclidean submanifolds of codimension two and arbitrary dimension that attain equality in an inequality due to De Smet, Dillen, Verstraelen and Vrancken. The latter…
