We give an alternative proof of the theorem by Kuznetsov and Lunts, stating that any separated scheme of finite type over a field of characteristic zero admits a categorical resolution of singularities. Their construction makes use of the…
We study the problem of resolving singularities via the blow-up of the module of derivations. Our main results are a positive answer for the case of curves and log-canonical surface singularities, i.e., a finite sequence of blow-ups along…
We provide a procedure for resolving, in characteristic 0, singularities of a variety $X$ embedded in a smooth variety $Y$ by repeatedly blowing up the worst singularities, in the sense of stack-theoretic weighted blowings up. No history,…
In characteristic zero, we construct logarithmic resolution of singularities, with simple normal crossings exceptional divisor, using weighted blow-ups.
It is shown that, for any reduced algebraic variety in characteristic zero, one can resolve all but simple normal crossings (snc) singularities by a finite sequence of blowings-up with smooth centres which, at every step, avoids points…
We present a hypersurface singularity in positive characteristic which is defined by a purely inseparable power series, and a sequence of point blowups so that, after applying the blowups to the singularity, the same type of singularity…
This article shall serve as a quick reference for somebody who needs precise information on concepts and results related to resolution of singularities. As such, it is more a technical manual than a bedtime story. Topics which are covered:…
The objective of this paper is to discuss invariants of singularities of algebraic schemes over fields of positive characteristic, and to show how they yield the simplification of singularities. We focus here on invariants which arise in an…
We first introduce and study the notion of multi-weighted blow-ups, which is later used to systematically construct an explicit yet efficient algorithm for functorial logarithmic resolution in characteristic zero, in the sense of Hironaka.…
We introduce the notion of categorical absorption of singularities: an operation that removes from the derived category of a singular variety a small admissible subcategory responsible for singularity and leaves a smooth and proper…
We provide a complete classification of the singularities of cluster algebras of finite type with trivial coefficients. Alongside, we develop a constructive desingularization of these singularities via blowups in regular centers over fields…
We show that the derived category of any singularity over a field of characteristic 0 can be embedded fully and faithfully into a smooth triangulated category which has a semiorthogonal decomposition with components equivalent to derived…
Building on the concept of a smooth DG algebra we define the notion of a smooth derived category. We the propose the definition of a categorical resolution of singularities. Our main example is the derived category $D(X)$ of quasi-coherent…
This article is an exposition of an elementary constructive proof of canonical resolution of singularities in characteristic zero, presented in detail in Invent. Math. 128 (1997), 207-302. We define a new local invariant and get an…
We discuss to what extent the local techniques of resolution of singularities over fields of characteristic zero can be applied to improve singularities in general. For certain interesting classes of singularities, this leads to an embedded…
The universal scheme of clusters of sections is an adaption of Kleiman's iterated blow ups (which parametrise clusters of points) to parametrise clusters of sections. They can also be constructed iteratively, but the iterative step is not…
This is essentially an illustration for the general technology of homotopical enhancements developed recently in arxiv:2409.17489. We take the derived category of an abelian category, and we look at the full subcategory spanned by complexes…
We construct a functor from the category of manifolds with generalized corners to the category of complexes of toric monoids, and for every `refinement' of the complex associated to a manifold, we show there is a unique `blow-up', i.e., a…
We present a mesh refinement algorithm for detecting singularities of time-dependent partial differential equations. The main idea behind the algorithm is to treat the occurrence of singularities of time-dependent partial differential…
We prove that for any singular integral affine variety $X$ of finite presentation over a perfect field defined over $\mathbb Z$, there exists a smooth morphism from $Y$ onto $X$ such that $Y$ admits a resolution. That is, there exists a…
