We study the question of the existence of a decomposition of the diagonal for very general quartic and $(2,3)$-complete intersection $n$-folds. Using cycle-theoretic techniques of Lange, Pavic and Schreieder we reduce the question via a…
A well known conjecture asserts that a cubic fourfold X is rational if it has a cohomologically associated K3 surface. G.Ouchi proved that if X admits a finite group G of symplectic automorphisms, whose order is different from 2, then X has…
In this note we find a bound for the so-called global linear Harbourne constants for smooth hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^{3}_{\mathbb{C}}$
We prove that the sweeping components of the space of smooth rational curves in a smooth hypersurface of degree $d$ in $P^n$ are not uniruled if $(n+1)/2 \leq d \leq n-3$. We also show that for any positive integer $e$, the space of smooth…
We study the existence of a decomposition of the diagonal for bidegree hypersurfaces in a product of projective spaces. Using a cycle theoretic degeneration technique due to Lange, Pavic and Schreieder, we develop an inductive procedure…
We classify four-dimensional quasismooth weighted hypersurfaces with small canonical class, and verify a conjecture of Johnson and Kollar on infinite series of quasismooth hypersurfaces with anticanonical hyperplane section in the case of…
We classify locally defined non-spherical real-analytic hypersurfaces in complex space whose Levi form has no more than one negative eigenvalue and for which the dimension of the group of local CR-automorphisms has the second largest value.
It is known that the smooth rational threefolds of P^5 having a rational non-special surface of P^4 as general hyperplane section have degree d=3,... ,7. We study such threefolds X from the point of view of linear systems of surfaces in…
In this paper we study quotients of del Pezzo surfaces of degree four and more over arbitrary field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic zero by finite groups of automorphisms. We show that if a del Pezzo surface $X$ contains a point defined over the…
We complement our work on the causality of upper semi-continuous distributions of cones with some results on Cauchy hypersurfaces. We prove that every locally stably acausal Cauchy hypersurface is stable. Then we prove that the signed…
Let X be a smooth quartic surface not containing lines, defined over a number field K. We prove that there are only finitely many bitangents to X which are defined over K. This result can be interpreted as saying that a certain surface,…
It is known that the totally umbilical hypersurfaces in the (n+1)-dimensional spheres are characterized as the only hypersurfaces with weak stability index 0. That is, a compact hypersurface with constant mean curvature, cmc, in S^{n+1},…
Hypersurfaces are studied and classified under multiple additional assumptions in any Riemannian homogeneous space $(\mathbb{C}P^3, g_a)$, including nearly K\"ahler $\mathbb{C}P^3$. Notably, all extrinsically homogeneous hypersurfaces are…
Koll\'ar proved that a very general $n$-dimensional complex hypersurface of degree at least $3\lceil (n+3)/4\rceil$ is not birational to a fibration in rational curves. This is most interesting when the hypersurface is Fano, in which case…
In this paper we will study the Hessian hypersurface associated with a smooth cubic. We prove that the existence of a Hessian locus, associated with a smooth cubic form f, of dimension bigger then the expected one, forces the cubic f to be…
We classify Galois actions on Picard lattices of del Pezzo surfaces of degrees 1,2, and 3 giving rise to minimal surfaces with no cohomological obstructions to stable rationality.
We study the rationality problem for nodal quartic double solids. In particular, we prove that nodal quartic double solids with at most six singular points are irrational, and nodal quartic double solids with at least eleven singular points…
For a generic anti-canonical hypersurface in each smooth toric Fano 4-fold with rank 2 Picard group, we prove there exist three isolated rational curves in it. Moreover, for all these 4-folds except one, the contractions of generic…
We show that stable cones for the one-phase free boundary problem are hyperplanes in dimension $4$. As a corollary, both one and two-phase energy minimizing hypersurfaces are smooth in dimension $4$.
In this paper, I present some sufficient conditions for projective hypersurfaces to be GIT (semi-)stable. These conditions will be presented in terms of dimension and degree of the hypersurfaces, dimension of the singular locus and…
