In this paper we study the cohomology of tensor products of symmetric powers of the cotangent bundle of complete intersection varieties in projective space. We provide an explicit description of some of those cohomology groups in terms of…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$ whose tangent bundle is nef. We prove that $X$ admits a smooth morphism $X \to M$ such that the fibers are Fano varieties with…

We describe when two multiprojective bundles (fibre products of projective bundles over the same base) over projective spaces are isomorphic as abstract varieties. We also describe when two relative symmetric powers of projective bundles…

We show that any hyperplane section of a variety which is the inverse image of a smooth variety of dimension at least 2 by an endomorphism (wich is not an automorphism) of the projective space, is linearly complete. We stress the case of…

Let X be a complete toric variety and let Y be a smooth projective variety with Picard number one. We prove that, if there exists a surjective morphism from X to Y, then Y is a projective space.

We study the positivity of exterior powers of the tangent sheaf on toric varieties in order to generalize results by Campana and Peternell about 3-folds with nef second exterior power of the tangent bundle. Using the theory of equivariant…

A map Y -> P^n is determined by a line bundle quotient of (O_Y)^{n+1}. In this paper, we generalize this description to the case of maps from Y to an arbitrary smooth toric variety. The data needed to determine such a map consists of a…

We prove that a smooth projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$ with strictly nef third, fourth or $(n-1)$-th exterior power of the tangent bundle is a Fano variety. Moreover, in the first two cases, we provide a classification for $X$ under…

Let D = {D_{1},...,D_{l}} be an arrangement of smooth hypersurfaces with normal crossings on the complex projective space P^n and let \Omega^{1}_{P^n}(log D) be the logarithmic bundle attached to it. Following [1], we show that…

Any smooth projective variety contains many complete intersection subvarieties with ample cotangent bundles, of each dimension up to half its own dimension.

We study smooth projective complex varieties with ample cotangent bundle. Our main result is that in an abelian variety of dimension n, a complete intersection of at least n/2 general hypersurfaces of sufficiently high degrees has ample…

This paper investigates the cohomological property of vector bundles on biprojective space. We will give a criterion for a vector bundle to be isomorphic to the tensor product of pullbacks of exterior products of differential sheaves.

We prove an elementary but somewhat unexpected result about projective embeddings of smooth varieties X whose cotangent bundles are numerically effective. Specifically, we show that the degree of X in any projective embedding must grow…

Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective variety such that the exterior power of the tangent bundle $\bigwedge^{r} T_X$ is nef for some $1\leq r<\dim X$. We prove that, up to an \'etale cover, $X$ is a Fano fiber space over an Abelian…

The aim of this work is to construct examples of pairs whose logarithmic cotangent bundles have strong positivity properties. These examples are constructed from any smooth n-dimensional complex projective varieties by considering the sum…

In this paper we describe projective curves and surfaces such that almost all their hyperplane sections are projectively equivalent. Our description is complete for curves and close to being complete for smooth surfaces. In the appendix we…

We prove that smooth, projective, $K$-trivial, weakly ordinary varieties over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$ are not geometrically uniruled. We also show a singular version of our theorem, which is sharp in multiple aspects. Our…

We consider characterizations of projective varieties in terms of their tangents. S. Mori established the characterization of projective spaces in arbitrary characteristic by ampleness of tangent bundles. J. Wahl characterized projective…

Let $X$ be a projective toric variety of dimension $n$ and let $L$ be a ample line bundle on $X$. For $k \geq 0$, it is in general difficult to determine whether $L^{\otimes k}$ is very ample and whether it additionally gives a projectively…

Let $\Q_n \subset \mathbb P^{n+1}$ be a smooth quadric hypersurface. Here we prove that the tensor product of an $m$-Qregular sheaf on $\Q_n$ and an $l$-Qregular vector bundle on $\Q_n$ is $(m+l)$-Qregular.
