We prove that if X is a locally complete intersection variety, then X has all the jet schemes irreducible if and only if X has canonical singularities. After embedding X in a smooth variety Y, we use motivic integration to express the…
The aim of the paper is to characterize Kawamata log terminal singularities and log canonical singularities by dimensions of jet schemes. It is a generalization of Mustata's result.
We give a self-contained presentation of the basic results on jet schemes of singular varieties. Applications are given to invariants of singularities, such as minimal log discrepancies. We simplify our older approach to Inversion of…
We characterise when the log arc scheme of a fine log scheme $(X, M)$, with $X$ a variety over a field of characteristic zero, is irreducible. This generalises the theorem of Kolchin that the (ordinary) arc scheme of $X$ is irreducible…
This paper studies the singularities of jet schemes of homogeneous hypersurfaces of general type. We obtain the condition of the degree and the dimension for the singularities of the jet schemes to be of dense $F$-regular type. This…
In this paper, we study the singularities of a pair (X,Y) in arbitrary characteristic via jet schemes. For a smooth variety X in characteristic 0, Ein, Lazarsfeld and Mustata showed that there is a correspondence between irreducible closed…
This paper summarizes the results at the present moment about singularities with respect to the Mather-Jacobian log discrepancies over algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. The basic point is the Inversion of Adjunction…
This article studies the scheme structure of the jet schemes of determinantal varieties. We show that in general, these jet schemes are not irreducible. In the case of the determinantal variety $X$ of $r \times s$ matrices of rank at most…
In [Kat94b], Kato defined his notion of a log regular scheme and studied the local behavior of such schemes. A toric variety equipped with its canonical logarithmic structure is log regular. And, these schemes allow one to generalize toric…
Given a scheme X over a field k, a generalized jet scheme parametrizes maps from Spec(A) to X, where A is a finite-dimensional, local algebra over k. We give an overview of known results concerning the dimensions of these schemes when A has…
Let X be a normal variety such that $K_X$ is Q-Cartier, and let $f: X \rightarrow X$ be a finite surjective morphism of degree at least two. We establish a close relation between the irreducible components of the locus of singularities that…
In this paper, we discuss a generalization of log canonical singularities in the non-$\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein setting. We prove that if a normal complex projective variety has a non-invertible polarized endomorphism, then it has log…
In this paper we give a complete description of the irreducible components of the jet schemes (with origin in the singular locus) of a two-dimensional quasi-ordinary hypersurface singularity. We associate with these components and with…
We introduce a class of singular log schemes in three dimensions and conjecture that log schemes in this class admit log crepant log resolutions. We provide examples as evidence and relate this conjecture to the conjecture made in [4] and…
The theory of relative logarithmic jet spaces is developed for log schemes. With this theory the existence of bounds of intersection multiplicities of curves and divisors on certain log schemes is established. This result extends those of…
This is my PhD Thesis, part of it has published in Acta Mathematica Sinica. In this paper, a class of morphisms which have a kind of singularity weaker than normal crossing is considered. We construct the obstruction such that the so-called…
In this paper, we prove that if a $3$-dimensional quasi-projective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>3$ has only log canonical singularities, then so does a general hyperplane section $H$ of $X$. We also…
Given a normal $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein complex variety $X$, we prove that if one spreads it out to a normal $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein scheme $\mathcal{X}$ of mixed characteristic whose reduction $\mathcal{X}_p$ modulo $p$ has normal $F$-pure…
We prove the following theorem characterizing Du Bois singularities. Suppose that $Y$ is smooth and that $X$ is a reduced closed subscheme. Let $\pi : \tld Y \to Y$ be a log resolution of $X$ in $Y$ that is an isomorphism outside of $X$. If…
A general canonical curve X determines a finite set T(X) of hyperplanes, which is in bijective correspondence with the set of odd theta-characteristics of X. The definition of T(X) can be extended to certain singular curves, in a way that…
