Consider a real algebraic variety, $\R X$, of dimension $d$. If its complexification, $\C X$, is a rational homology manifold (at least in a neighborhood of $\R X$), then the intersection form in $\C X$ defines a bilinear form in…

Let $(R,\fm)$ be commutative Noetherian local ring. It is shown that $R$ is Cohen--Macaulay ring if there exists a Cohen--Macaulay finite (i.e. finitely generated) $R$--module with finite upper Gorenstein dimension. In addition, we show…

We calculate the Picard group of generic (very general) spectral varieties living in the total space of a very ample line bundle over an algebraically closed field $k$ of odd characteristics or characteristic 0. We follow the strategy of…

For a fixed integer $d$, we study here the locus of degree $d$ hypersurfaces $X$ in $\mathbb{P}^{2n+1}$ such that $H^{2n}(X,\mathbb{Q}) \cap H^{n,n}(X,\mathbb{C}) \not= \mathbb{Q}$. We call this locus \textit{the Noether-Lefschetz locus}.…

We obtain criteria for detecting complete intersections in projective varieties. Motivated by a conjecture of Hartshorne concerning subvarieties of projective spaces, we investigate situations when two-codimensional smooth subvarieties of…

Let $Z$ be a closed subscheme of a smooth complex projective complete intersection variety $Y\subseteq \Ps^N$, with $dim Y=2r+1\geq 3$. We describe the N\'eron-Severi group $NS_r(X)$ of a general smooth hypersurface $X\subset Y$ of…

A complete intersection $f_1=\cdots=f_k=0$ is sch\"on, if $f_1=\cdots=f_j=0$ defines a sch\"on subvariety of an algebraic torus for every $j\leqslant k$. This class includes nondegenerate complete intersections, critical loci of their…

We prove an intersection formula for two plane branches in terms of their semigroups and key polynomials. Then we provide a strong version of Bayer's theorem on the set of intersection numbers of two branches and apply it to the logarithmic…

In this paper we examine different problems regarding complete intersection varieties of high degree in a complex projective space. First we show how one can deduce hyperbolicity for generic complete intersection of high multidegree and…

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…

The Hard Lefschetz theorem is known to hold for the intersection cohomology of the toric variety associated to a rational convex polytope. One can construct the intersection cohomology combinatorially from the polytope, hence it is well…

Let $X$ be a complex submanifold of dimension $d$ of $\mathbb P^m\times\mathbb P^n$ ($m\geq n\geq 2$) and denote by $\alpha\colon\Pic(\mathbb P^m\times\mathbb P^n)\to \Pic(X)$ the restriction map of Picard groups, by $N_{X|\mathbb…

In this article, we study the weak and strong Lefschetz of higher dimensional quotients and dimension 1 almost complete intersections. We then apply the obtained results to the study of the Jacobian algebra of hyperplane arrangements.

For every complete toric variety, there exists a projective toric variety which is isomorphic to it in codimension one. In this paper, we show that every smooth non-projective complete toric threefold of Picard number at most five becomes…

For each nonsingular hyperelliptic curve of arbitrary genus, we construct a natural injection from the Galois cohomology of 2-torsion subgroups of Jacobian varieties of the curve to the set of isomorphism classes of nonsingular complete…

The Hard Lefschetz theorem for intersection cohomology of nonrational polytopes was recently proved by K. Karu [Ka]. This theorem implies the conjecture of R. Stanley on the unimodularity of the generalized $h$-vector. In this paper we…

We study the Brill-Noether theory of curves on K3 surfaces that are Hodge theoretically associated to cubic fourfolds of discriminant 14. We prove that any smooth curve in the polarization class has maximal Clifford index and deduce that a…

Let $f_1,..., f_k:X\to N$ be maps from a complex $X$ to a compact manifold $N$, $k\ge 2$. In previous works \cite{BLM,MS}, a Lefschetz type theorem was established so that the non-vanishing of a Lefschetz type coincidence class…

We prove an analogue of the Lefschetz (1,1) Theorem characterizing cohomology classes of Cartier divisors (or equivalently first Chern classes of line bundles) in the second integral cohomology. Let $X$ be a normal complex projective…

We show that the variable cohomology of a general complete intersection of quadrics can be identified with the intersection cohomology of a double covering. As a consequence, we show that the middle cohomology of a general complete…
