Let $X$ be a complex projective surface with arbitrary singularities. We construct a generalized Abel--Jacobi map $A_0(X)\to J^2(X)$ and show that it is an isomorphism on torsion subgroups. Here $A_0(X)$ is the appropriate Chow group of…
The algebra in the title has been introduced by P. Aluffi. Let $J\subset I$ be ideals in the commutative ring $R$. The (embedded) Aluffi algebra of $I$ on $R/J$ is an intermediate graded algebra between the symmetric algebra and Rees…
We study the orchard problem on cubic surfaces. We classify possibly reducible cubic surfaces $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^3(\C)$ with smooth components on which there exist families of finite sets (of unbounded size) with quadratically many…
Let X be a geometrically smooth n-dimensional projective algebraic complex hypersurface in P^{n+1}(C). Using Green-Griffiths jets, we establish the existence of nonzero global algebraic differential equations that must be satisfied by every…
The difference $[L_1]-[L_2]$ of a pair of skew lines on a cubic threefold defines a vanishing cycle on the cubic surface as the hyperplane section spanned by the two lines. By deforming the hyperplane, the flat translation of such vanishing…
Given subvarieties $X, Y$ of a complex algebraic variety $S$ of complementary dimension, must they intersect? When $S$ is projective space, this is a consequence of the classical B\'ezout theorem, and an analogue for simple abelian…
We introduce the notion of semibreak divisors on metric graphs (tropical curves) and prove that every effective divisor class (of degree at most the genus) has a semibreak divisor representative. This appropriately generalizes the notion of…
For a smooth algebraic curve X over a field, applying H_1 to the Abel map X -> Pic (X/\partial X) to the Picard scheme of X modulo its boundary realizes the Poincar\'e duality isomorphism H_1(X, Z/ n) -> H^1(X/ \partial X, Z/n(1)) =…
Let $A$ be an abelian surface over an algebraically closed field $\overline{k}$ with an embedding $\overline{k}\hookrightarrow\mathbb{C}$. When $A$ is isogenous to a product of elliptic curves, we describe a large collection of pairwise…
We extend to the topological setting the classical constructions of the Abel-Jacobi mapping on homologically trivial algebraic cycles and the height pairing between two such cycles. We further interpret the height pairing between…
We prove the integral Hodge conjecture for one-cycles on a principally polarized complex abelian variety whose minimal class is algebraic. In particular, any product of Jacobians of smooth projective curves over the complex numbers…
The real cycle class map $H^i(X,\underline{I}^j(\mathcal{L})) \rightarrow H^i_\text{sing}(X(\mathbb{R}),\mathbb{Z}(\mathcal{L}))$ is an isomorphism for $j\geq \dim(X)+1$ for any scheme $X$ over $\mathbb{R}$ by a result of Jacobson. It is…
For every even number $n$, and every $n$-dimensional smooth hypersurface of $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ of degree $d$, we compute the periods of all its $\frac{n}{2}$-dimensional complete intersection algebraic cycles. Furthermore, we determine the…
In this paper we associate an abelian category to a finite directed graph and prove the categories arising from two graphs are equivalent if the incidence matrices of the graphs are shift equivalent. The abelian category is the quotient of…
For the evaluation and inversion of abelian integrals we show that the image of the Abel-Jacobi map of genus less than 5 hyperelliptic curve in its Jacobian is the intersection of shifted theta divisors with specified shifts. Therefore the…
We consider a product $X=E_1\times\cdots\times E_d$ of elliptic curves over a finite extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with a combination of good or split multiplicative reduction. We assume that at most one of the elliptic curves has…
An important invariant of a polynomial $f$ is its Jacobian algebra defined by its partial derivatives. Let $f$ be invariant with respect to the action of a finite group of diagonal symmetries $G$. We axiomatically define an orbifold…
We prove that the Griffiths group of 3-cycles homologous to zero modulo algebraic equivalence, on a generic hypersurfaces of dimension 7 and degree 3 is not finitely generated, even when tensored with Q. Using this and a result of Nori, we…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $d$ over an arbitrary base field $k$ and $CH^n(X)_{\mathbb Q}$ be the $\mathbb Q$-vector space of codimension $n$ algebraic cycles of $X$ modulo rational equivalence, $1\leq n \leq d$.…
Let k be an algebraically closed subfield of the complex numbers, and X a variety defined over k. One version of the Beilinson-Hodge conjecture that seems to survive scrutiny is the statement that the Betti cycle class map cl_{r,m} :…
