We present the abelianisation of the birational transformations of the real projective plane.
The Cremona group acts on the field of two independent commutative variables over complex numbers. We provide a non-commutative ring that is an analog of non-commutative field of two independent variables and prove that the Cremona group…
It is proved that the group of birational automorphisms of a three-dimensional double quadric with a singular point arising from a double point on the branch divisor is a semidirect product of the free group generated by birational…
Recently, Lin and Shinder constructed non-trivial homomorphisms from Cremona groups of rank >2 to \mathbb{Z} using motivic techniques. In this short note we propose an alternative perspective from median geometry on their theorem.
One defines two ways of constructing rational maps derived from other rational maps, in a characteristic-free context. The first introduces the Newton complementary dual of a rational map. One main result is that this dual preserves…
One studies Cremona monomial maps by combinatorial means. Among the results is a simple integer matrix theoretic proof that the inverse of a Cremona monomial map is also defined by monomials of fixed degree, and moreover, the set of…
We use a recent advance in birational geometry to prove new lower bounds on the essential dimension of some finite groups.
We complete the classical and modern work on the classification of conjugacy classes of finite subgroups of the group of birational transformations of the complex projective plane.
We study distortion of elements in two-dimensional Cremona groups over algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero. Namely, we obtain the following trichotomy: non-elliptic elements (i.e., those whose powers have unbounded degree)…
We show that every automorphism of the group $\mathcal{G}_n:= \textrm{Aut}(\mathbb{A}^n)$ of polynomial automorphisms of complex affine $n$-space $\mathbb{A}^n=\mathbb{C}^n$ is inner up to field automorphisms when restricted to the subgroup…
It is proved that the group of holomorphic automorphisms of holomorphically homogeneous nondegenerate (finite Bloom-Graham type + holomorphic nondegenaracy) model surface Q is a subgroup of the group of birational automorphisms of the…
In this work, we study a family of Cremona transformations of weighted projective planes which generalize the standard Cremona transformation of the projective plane. Starting from special plane projective curves we construct families of…
We consider Cremona transformations of the complex projective space of dimension 3 which factorize as a product of at most two elementary links of type II, without small contractions, connecting two Fano 3-folds. We show that there are…
We show that plane Cremona groups over finite fields embed as dense subgroups into Neretin groups, i.e. groups of almost automorphisms of rooted trees. We also show that if the finite base field has even characteristic and contains at least…
In this paper, we consider the problem of determining which automorphisms of a smooth quartic surface $S \subset \mathbb{P}^3$ are induced by a Cremona transformation of $\mathbb{P}^3$. We provide the first steps towards a complete solution…
We look at algebraic embeddings of the Cremona group in $n$ variables $Cr_n(C)$ to the group of birational transformations $Bir(M)$ of an algebraic variety $M$. First we study geometrical properties of an example of an embedding of…
This short note deals with the conjugacy classes of monomial birational maps in the $n$-dimensional Cremona group, $n\geq 2$.
The Cremona groups are the groups of all birational equivalences of rational varieties and, equivalently, the automorphism groups of the rational function fields. In this note, we explain that homological stability fails for them in both…
A dimension group is an ordered abelian group that is an inductive limit of a sequence of simplicial groups, and a stationary dimension group is such an inductive limit in which the homomorphism is the same at every stage. If a simple…
We construct invariants of birational maps with values in the Kontsevich--Tschinkel group and in the truncated Grothendieck groups of varieties. These invariants are morphisms of groupoids and are well-suited to investigating the structure…
