We prove Vojta's abc conjecture for projective space ${\Bbb P}^n({\Bbb C})$, assuming that the entire curves in ${\Bbb P}^n({\Bbb C})$ are highly ramified over the coordinate hyperplanes. This extends the results of Guo Ji and the…
In each dimension n>2 there are many projective simplicial toric varieties whose Grothendieck groups of vector bundles are at least as big as the ground field. In particular, the conjecture that the Grothendieck groups of locally trivial…
Let $f:X \to Y$ be a proper morphism of normal varieties with $f_*\mathcal{O}_X = \mathcal{O}_Y$. If $X$ is toric, then $Y$ is toric and $f$ is a toric morphism for some toric structures on $X$ and $Y$.
We prove Shokurov's global index conjecture for foliations in dimension at most three. This answers a question of the first author, Meng, and Xie in dimension three. The main result of this paper is partially obtained by generative AI,…
We prove a numerical characterization of $\mathbb{P}^n$ for varieties with at worst isolated local complete intersection quotient singularities. In dimension three, we prove such a numerical characterization of $\mathbb{P}^3$ for normal…
Normal toric varieties over a field or a discrete valuation ring are classified by rational polyhedral fans. We generalize this classification to normal toric varieties over an arbitrary valuation ring of rank one. The proof is based on a…
Irreducible symplectic varieties are higher-dimensional analogues of K3 surfaces. In this paper, we prove the Shafarevich conjecture for irreducible symplectic varieties of fixed deformation class. We also observe that the second…
Recently, I. Kossovskiy and R. Shafikov have settled the so-called Dimension Conjecture, which characterizes spherical hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb C}^2$ via the dimension of the algebra of infinitesimal automorphisms. In this note, we…
We give a short, new proof of a recent result of Hanlon-Hicks-Lazarev about toric varieties. As in their work, this leads to a proof of a conjecture of Berkesch-Erman-Smith on virtual resolutions and to a resolution of the diagonal in the…
Two conjectures relating the Kodaira dimension of a smooth projective variety and existence of number of nowhere vanishing 1-forms on the variety are proposed and verified in dimension 3.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of "extension" of a toric variety and study its fundamental properties. This gives rise to infinitely many toric varieties with a special property, such as being set theoretic complete intersection or…
We describe classes of toric varieties of codimension 2 which are either minimally defined by 3 binomial equations over any algebraically closed field, or are set-theoretic complete intersections in exactly one positive characteristic.
The motivation for this paper is to detect when an irreducible projective variety V is not toric. We do this by analyzing a Lie group and a Lie algebra associated to V. If the dimension of V is strictly less than the dimension of the above…
A strong version of a conjecture of Viterbo asserts that all normalized symplectic capacities agree on convex domains. We review known results showing that certain specific normalized symplectic capacities agree on convex domains. We also…
We first prove Vojta's abc conjecture over function fields for Campana points on projective toric varieties with high multiplicity along the boundary. As a consequence, we obtain a version of Campana's conjecture on finite coverings of…
Motivated by Shokurov's ACC Conjecture for log canonical thresholds, we propose an inductive point of view on singularities of pairs, in the case when the ambient variety is smooth. Our main result characterizes the log canonicity of a pair…
We give a new proof of a conjecture of Schinzel on the intersection of a subvariety of codimension at least 2 in a power of the multiplicative group with a torus of dimension 1. The proof rests on a geometric B\'ezout's theorem of P.…
We present a counterexample to the conjecture of Bihan, Franz, McCrory, and van Hamel concerning the maximality of toric varieties. There exists a six dimensional projective toric variety X with the sum of the mod 2 Betti numbers of X(R)…
Recent advances in computational techniques for $K$-theory allow us to describe the $K$-theory of toric varieties in terms of the $K$-theory of fields and simple cohomological data.
The main purpose of this notes is to supplement the paper reid, which treated Minimal Model Program (also called Mori's Program) on toric varieties. We calculate lengths of negative extremal rays of toric varieties. As an application, we…
