Scheme-theoretic methods are used to classify ternary quadratic forms with values in line bundles over arbitrary schemes and to canonically determine the isomorphisms between them. The association of a quadratic bundle to its even Clifford…
We give a new, shorter computation of Frobenius push-forwards of line bundles on toric varieties.
Let $\Gamma$ be an $\widetilde A_2$ subgroup of $\PGL_3(\mathbb K)$, where $\mathbb K$ is a local field with residue field of order $q$. The module of coinvariants $C(\mathbb P^2_{\mathbb K},\mathbb Z)_{\Gamma}$ is shown to be finite, where…
Vertical Sato-Tate states that the Frobenius trace of a randomly chosen elliptic curve over $\mathbb F_p$ tends to a semicircular distribution as $p\rightarrow \infty$. We go beyond this statement by considering the number of elliptic…
In this paper we obtain bounds on $h^0(E)$ where $E$ is a semistable bundle of rank 3 over a smooth irreducible projective curve $X$ of genus $g \geq 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. These bounds are…
Let $p$ and $l$ be rational primes such that $l$ is odd and the order of $p$ modulo $l$ is even. For such primes $p$ and $l$, and for $e=l, 2l$, we consider the non-singular projective curves $aY^e = bX^e + cZ^e$ ($abc \neq 0$) defined over…
In recent years, the equations defining secant varieties and their syzygies have attracted considerable attention. The purpose of the present paper is to conduct a thorough study on secant varieties of curves by settling several conjectures…
We define functorial isomorphisms of parallel transport along etale paths for a class of G-principal bundles on a p-adic curve where G is a connected reductive algebraic group of finite presentation. This class consists of all principal…
Let T be a general bidegree (2,2) divisor in the product of two projective planes. Recently A.Verra proved that the existence of two conic bundle structures (c.b.s.) on T implies a new counterexample to the Torelli theorem for Prym…
We construct a rank-$2$ indecomposable vector bundle on $\mathbb P^2\times\mathbb P^2$ in characteristic $2$ that does not come from a bundle on $\mathbb P^2$ by factor projection nor from a bundle on $\mathbb P^{m} $ by central projection.…
In this short note we provide explicit examples in characteristic $p$ on certain smooth projective curves where for a given semistable vector bundle $\mathcal{E}$ the length of the Harder-Narasimhan filtration of $F^\ast \mathcal{E}$ is…
Given a holomorphic selfmap f of the complex projective plane of algebraic degree at least 2, we give sufficient conditions on a positive closed (1,1) current S of unit mass under which the normalized pullbacks of S under iterates of f…
Let G be a reductive p-adic group, H(G) its Hecke algebra and S(G) its Schwartz algebra. We will show that these algebras have the same periodic cyclic homology. This might be used to provide an alternative proof of the Baum-Connes…
In this article we give explicit formulae for a lift of the relative Frobenius morphism between elliptic curves and show how one can compute this lift in the case of ordinary reduction in odd characteristic. Our theory can also be used in…
Let $C$ be an irreducible, reduced, non-degenerate curve, of arithmetic genus $g$ and degree $d$, in the projective space $\mathbf P^4$ over the complex field. Assume that $C$ satisfies the following {\it flag condition of type $(s,t)$}:…
We give a proof of Bott periodicity for real graded $C^\ast$-algebras in terms of K- theory and E-theory. Guentner and Higson proved a similar result in the complex graded case but we extend this to cover all graded $C^\ast$-algebras. We…
We calculate the ordinary $C_2$-cohomology, with Burnside ring coefficients, of $BU(2)$, the classifying space for $C_2$-equivariant complex 2-plane bundles, using an extended grading that allows us to capture a more natural set of…
In this article we consider smooth projective curves $C$ of genus two described by integral equations of the form $y^2=xh(x)$, where $h(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ is monic of degree $4$. It turns out that if $h(x)$ is reducible, then the absolute…
This work concerns the problem of relating characteristic numbers of one-dimensional holomorphic foliations of P^n to those of algebraic varieties invariant by them. More precisely: if M is a connected complex manifold, a one-dimensional…
The phenomenon of periodicity, discovered by Benson and Goodearl, is linked to the behavior of the objects of cocycles in acyclic complexes. It is known that any flat $\mathsf{Proj}$-periodic module is projective, any fp-injective…
