We give a rational form of a generic two-dimensional "quad" map, containing the so-called $Q_4$ case, but whose coefficients are free. Its integrability is proved using the calculation of algebraic entropy.

Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective threefold of general type. Assume $q(X)>0$. We show that the $m$-canonical map of $X$ is birational for all $m\geq 5$.

Let P^2_r be the projective plane blown up at r generic points. Denote by E_0,E_1,...,E_r the strict transform of a generic straight line on P^2 and the exceptional divisors of the blown-up points on P^2_r respectively. We consider the…

Given a curve C on a projective nonsingular rational surface S, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, we are interested in the set Omega_C of linear systems Lambda on S satisfying C is in Lambda, dim Lambda > 0, and the…

Suppose that $X$ is a smooth projective variety and that $C$ is a general member of a family of free rational curves on $X$. We prove several statements showing that the Harder-Narasimhan filtration of $T_{X}|_{C}$ is approximately the same…

Let S be a compact surface with boundary and F be the set of the orbits of a traversing flow on S. If the flow is generic, its orbit space is a spine G of S, namely G is a graph embedded in S and S is a regular neighbourhood of G. Moreover…

We prove by induction on dimension the Hodge conjecture for smooth complex projective varieties. Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety. Then $X$ is birational to a possibly singular projective hypersurface, hence to a smooth…

In this article we introduce a new class of non-commutative projective curves and show that in certain cases the derived category of coherent sheaves on them has a tilting complex. In particular, we prove that the right bounded derived…

Let X be a Fano manifold such that every rational curve in X has anticanonical degree at least the dimension of X. We prove that X is a projective space or a quadric.

The purpose of this paper is to prove the following theorem. Let $X$ be a projective normal variety defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let $\Omega_{X}^{1}\to L$ be a one-dimensional foliation on $X$. If…

Let $(X,D)$ be a pair where $X$ is a projective variety. We study in detail how the behavior of rational curves on $X$ as well as the positivity of $-(K_X+D)$ and $D$ influence the behavior of rational curves on $D$. In particular we give…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve in $\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1$ of genus $g\neq 4$, and assume that it is birationally equivalent to a curve defined by a Laurent polynomial that is non-degenerate with respect to its Newton polygon…

We show that a standard conic bundle over a minimal rational surface is rational and its Jacobian splits as the direct sum of Jacobians of curves if and only if its derived category admits a semiorthogonal decomposition by exceptional…

Let $X_4\subset\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ be a quartic hypersurface of dimension $n\geq 4$ over an infinite field $k$. We show that if either $X_4$ contains a linear subspace $\Lambda$ of dimension $h\geq \max\{2,\dim(\Lambda\cap…

We consider smooth threefolds $Y$ defined over $\Bbb{C}$ with $H^i(Y, \Omega^j_Y)=0$ for all $j\geq 0$, $i>0$. Let $X$ be a smooth projective threefold containing $Y$ and $D$ be the boundary divisor with support $X-Y$. We are interested in…

In this paper we determine the $\mathbb Q$-gonalities of the modular curves $X_0(N)$ for all $N<145$. We determine the $\mathbb C$-gonality of many of these curves and the $\mathbb Q$-gonalities and $\mathbb C$-gonalities for many larger…

Let $N$ be a positive integer and let $J_0(N)$ be the Jacobian variety of the modular curve $X_0(N)$. For any prime $p\ge 5$ whose square does not divide $N$, we prove that the $p$-primary subgroup of the rational torsion subgroup of…
