We study here the Berkovich line over the ring of integers of a number field. It is a natural object which contains complex and non-Archimedean analytic spaces associated to each place. We prove that this line satisfies good topological and…

In the first part of the thesis, we study a classical invariant of projective varieties, the secant defectivity. The second part is devoted to modern algebraic geometry, we study the birational geometry of blow-ups of Grassmannians at…

The pourpose of these notes is to give an elementary description of one of the simplest Berkovich's spaces: that associated to the projective line of a complete and algebraically closed ultrametric field. \ L'objectif de ces notes est de…

This article investigates the complex symplectic geometry of the deformation space of complex projective structures on a closed oriented surface of genus at least 2. The cotangent symplectic structure given by the Schwarzian parametrization…

We develop properties of unramified, \'etale and smooth morphisms between Berkovich spaces over $\mathbb{Z}$. We prove that they satisfy properties analogous to those of morphisms of schemes and we provide analytification criteria. Our…

We construct a functorial decomposition of de Rham cohomology sheaves, called weight decomposition, for smooth analytic spaces over non-Archimedean fields embeddable into $\mathbf{C}_p$, which generalizes a construction of Berkovich and…

We prove that the predual of any JBW$^*$-algebra is a complex $1$-Plichko space and the predual of any JBW-algebra is a real $1$-Plichko space. I.e., any such space has a countably $1$-norming Markushevich basis, or, equivalently, a…

We survey results in algebraic complexity theory, focusing on matrix multiplication. Our goals are (i.) to show how open questions in algebraic complexity theory are naturally posed as questions in geometry and representation theory, (ii.)…

We study the problem of how the dual complex of the special fiber of an snc degeneration $\cX_R$ changes under products. We view the dual complex as a skeleton inside the Berkovich space associated to $X_K$. Using the Kato fan, we define a…

In 2010, Hrushovski--Loeser showed that the Berkovich analytification of a quasi-projective variety over a non-Archimedean valued field admits a deformation retraction onto a finite simplicial complex. In this article, we adapt the tools…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, and let f be a morphism of smooth projective varieties from X to Y over the ring k((t)) of formal Laurent series. We prove that if a general geometric fiber of f is rationally…

Let S be a smooth projective surface over the complex field. Under certain technical assumptions, we prove that the degeneracy locus of the universal sheaf over the moduli space of stable sheaves is either empty or an irreducible…

We revisit congruence zeta functions of smooth projective varieties over finite fields in the framework of Scholze's Berkovich motives. Via this formalism and categorical traces, we construct a new zeta function, and show that it agree with…

We start an analysis of geometric properties of a structure relative to a reduct. In particular, we look at definability of groups and fields in this context. In the relatively one-based case, every definable group is isogenous to a…
