We apply Vojta's conjecture to blowups and deduce a number of deep statements regarding (generalized) greatest common divisors on varieties, in particular on projective space and on abelian varieties. Special cases of these statements…
In this paper we show a general method to compactify certain open varieties by adding normal crossing divisors. This is done by proving that {\it blowing up along an arrangement of subvarieties} can be carried out. Important examples such…
We establish existence of functorial orbifold reductions of singularities for Poisson subvarieties in smooth Poisson threefolds. Namely, we show that with enough weighted blowups, one can reduce the singularities of such Poisson…
We extend the notion of the cardinality of a discrete groupoid (equal to the Euler characteristic of the corresponding discrete orbifold) to the setting of Lie groupoids. Since this quantity is an invariant under equivalence of groupoids,…
In this paper we develop a theory of volume polynomials of generalized virtual polytopes based on the study of topology of affine subspace arrangements in a real Euclidean space. We apply this theory to obtain a topological version of the…
We study the generic volume rigidity of $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complexes in $\mathbb R^{d-1}$, and show that the volume rigidity of a complex can be identified in terms of its exterior shifting. In addition, we establish the volume…
Volume computation for $d$-polytopes $\mathcal{P}$ is fundamental in mathematics. There are known volume computation algorithms, mostly based on triangulation or signed-decomposition of $\mathcal{P}$. We consider $…

We define a generalization of the Brauer group $\operatorname{H}_\mathrm{B}^{n}(X)$ for an equi-dimensional scheme $X$ and $n>0$. In the case where $X$ is the spectrum of a local ring of a smooth algebra over a discrete valuation ring,…
We give upper bounds for volume of sublevel sets of real polynomials. Our method is to combine a version of global Lojasiewicz inequality with some well known estimate on volume of tubes around real algebraic sets. Some applications to…
In this article we give a general approach to the following analogue of Shafarevich's conjecture for some polarized algebraic varieties; suppose that we fix a type of an algebraic variety and look at families of such type of varieties over…
We establish central limit theorems for natural volumes of random inscribed polytopes in projective Riemannian or Finsler geometries. In addition, normal approximation of dual volumes and the mean width of random polyhedral sets are…
We consider a relation between local and global characteristics of a differential algebraic variety. We prove that dimension of tangent space for every regular point of an irreducible differential algebraic variety coincides with dimension…
We discuss to what extent the local techniques of resolution of singularities over fields of characteristic zero can be applied to improve singularities in general. For certain interesting classes of singularities, this leads to an embedded…
We study exceptional loci of F-blowups of normal toric varieties. In the $\Q$-factorial case, this study amounts to studying the exceptional loci of $G$-Hilbert schemes. We give a formula for the dimension of the center of a prime divisor…
We show that in any $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein flat family of klt singularities, normalized volumes can only jump down at countably many subvarieties. A quick consequence is that smooth points have the largest normalized volume among all klt…
We deal with the algebraicity of an iterated Puiseux series in several variables in terms of the properties of its coefficients. Our aim is to generalize to several variables the results from [HM15]. We show that the algebraicity of such a…
Recent works of the authors have demonstrated the usefulness of considering moduli spaces of Artinian reductions of a given ring when studying standard graded rings and their Lefschetz properties. This paper illuminates a key aspect of…
We investigate properties of potentially Du Bois singularities, that is, those that occur on the underlying space of a Du Bois pair. We show that a normal variety $X$ with potentially Du Bois singularities and Cartier canonical divisor…
