Let $Y$ be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension $N+1$, $L$ an invertible sufficiently ample sheaf, $X\in |L|$ a smooth hypersurface and $\lambda\in F^kH^N(X,C)$ a vanishing cohomology class, where $F^{*}$ is the Hodge filtration…

We give a classification of components of the Hodge locus in any parameter space of smooth projective varieties. This is done using determinantal varieties constructed from the infinitesimal variation of Hodge structures (IVHS) of the…

For a quasi-smooth hyper-surface $X$ in a projective simplicial toric variety $P$, the morphism $i:H^p(P) \to H^p(X)$ induced by the inclusion is injective for $p=d$ and an isomorphism for $p<d-1$, where $d=dim\ P$. This allows one to…

We take a sum $C_1+r C_2,\ r\in\mathbb Q$ of a line $C_1$ and a complete intersection curve $C_2$ of type $(3,3)$ inside a smooth surface of degree $8$ and with $C_1\cap C_2=\emptyset$. We gather evidences to the fact that for all except a…

For a fixed integer $d \ge 5$, the Noether-Lefschetz locus parametrizes smooth degree $d$ complex hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ with Picard number greater than $1$. There are infinitely many irreducible components of this locus. The aim…

We continue our study of the Noether-Lefschetz loci in toric varieties and investigate deformation of pairs (V,X) where V is a complete intersection subvariety and X a quasi-smooth hypersurface in a odd dimensional simplicial projective…

For a fixed $d \ge 5$, the Noether-Lefschetz locus parametrizes smooth degree $d$ surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ with Picard number greater than $1$. This is a countable union of proper algebraic varieties. It is known (due to works of Voisin,…

For $d \ge 4$, the Noether-Lefschetz locus $\mathrm{NL}_d$ parametrizes smooth, degree $d$ surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ with Picard number at least $2$. A conjecture of Harris states that there are only finitely many irreducible components of…

We prove asymptotic estimates for the growth in the degree of the Hodge locus in terms of arithmetic properties of the integral vectors that define it. Our methods are general and apply to most variations of Hodge structures for which the…

We study an analogue of the Noether-Lefschetz theorem in the context of Beilinson's Hodge conjecture. We estimate the dimension of the Noether-Lefschetz locus by the infinitesimal methods in Hodge theory.

In this manuscript we sharpen the lower bound on the codimension of the irreducible components of the Noether-Lefschetz locus of surfaces in projective toric threefolds given in [BG17]. We also provide a simpler proof of Theorem 4.11 in…

We establish the Hodge conjecture for some subvarieties of a class of toric varieties. First we study quasi-smooth intersections in a projective simplicial toric variety, which is a suitable notion to generalize smooth complete intersection…

We characterize the smallest codimension components of the Hodge locus of smooth degree $d$ hypersurfaces of the projective space $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ of even dimension $n$, passing through the Fermat variety (with $d\neq 3,4,6$). They…

A finite length graded $R$-module $M$ has the Weak Lefschetz Property if there is a linear element $\ell$ in $R$ such that the multiplication map $\times\ell: M_i\to M_{i+1}$ has maximal rank. The set of linear forms with this property form…

We study when the Picard group of smooth surfaces of degree $d\geq 5$ in $\mathbb{P}^3$ acquires extra classes. In particular we show that the so called exceptional components of the Noether-Lefschetz locus are not Zariski dense. This…

We compute the dimension of certain components of the family of smooth determinantal degree $d$ surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$, and show that each of them is the closure of a component of the Noether-Lefschetz locus $NL(d)$. Our computations…

Given two vector bundles E and F on a variety X and a morphism from Sym^2(E) to F, we compute the cohomology class of the locus in X where the kernel of this morphism contains a quadric of prescribed rank. Our formulas have many…

We study the Noether-Lefschetz locus of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}$ of $K3^{[2]}$-fourfolds with a polarization of degree $2$. Following Hassett's work on cubic fourfolds, Debarre, Iliev, and Manivel have shown that the Noether-Lefschetz…

This paper replaces the previous longer version and focuses on the specialty $2$ case. More precisely, in this paper we address the Brill-Noether theory for rank-two, degree $d$ stable bundles of speciality $2$ on a general $\nu$-gonal…

We consider the Noether-Lefschetz problem for surfaces in Q-factorial normal 3-folds with rational singularities. We show the existence of components of the Noether-Lefschetz locus of maximal codimension, and that there are indeed…
