Suppose that $\Phi:X\to Y$ is a morphism from a 3 fold to a surface (over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero). We prove that there exist sequences of blowups of nonsingular subvarieties $X_1\to X$ and $Y_1\to Y$ such that…

Let $(Z,o)$ be a three-dimensional terminal singularity of type $cA/r$. We prove that all exceptional divisors over $o$ with discrepancies $\le 1$ are rational.

Revised version. Proper credits added. In this paper we study divisorial extremal neighborhoods f:Y-->X, such that X is a cAn type three dimensional terminal singularity, and C=f(E) is a smooth curve, where E is the f-exceptional divisor.…

We construct examples of projective toric surfaces whose blow-up at a general point has a non-polyhedral pseudo-effective cone, both in characteristic $0$ and in every prime characteristic $p$. As a consequence, we prove that the…

Monotone polytopes, also known as smooth reflexive polytopes, are the polytopes associated to monotone symplectic toric manifolds and Gorenstein Fano toric varieties. We first show that the only monotone polytopes admitting blow-ups at…

Various shock and rarefaction-type similarity solutions of the third-order nonlinear dispersion equation in 1D are constructed. Blow-up of some solutions are proved by different techniques.

Let $X$ and $Y$ be two analytic canonical Gorenstein orbifolds. A resolution of singularities $Y\to X$ is called an Euler resolution if $Y$ and $X$ have the same orbifold Euler number. If $Y$ is only terminal rather than smooth, it is…

This paper classifies all toric Fano 3-folds with terminal singularities. This is achieved by solving the equivalent combinatoric problem; that of finding, up to the action of GL(3,Z), all convex polytopes in Z^3 which contain the origin as…

We consider a resolution of ramified irregular singularities of meromorphic connections on a formal disk via local Fourier transforms. A necessary and sufficient condition for an irreducible connection to have a resolution of the ramified…

In characteristic zero, we construct logarithmic resolution of singularities, with simple normal crossings exceptional divisor, using weighted blow-ups.

In this paper we determine which blow-ups $X$ of $\mathbb{P}^n$ at general points are log Fano, that is, when there exists an effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $\Delta$ such that $-(K_X+\Delta)$ is ample and the pair $(X,\Delta)$ is klt. For…

We calculate the full asymptotic expansion of boundary blow-up solutions, for any nonlinearity f. Our approach enables us to state sharp qualitative results regarding uniqueness and ra-dial symmetry of solutions, as well as a…

In this paper we report on numerical studies of formation of singularities for the semilinear wave equations with a focusing power nonlinearity $u_{tt} - \Delta u = u^{p}$ in three space dimensions. We show that for generic large initial…

Let $X$ be the blowup of $\mathbb{P}^3$ at eight very general points. We give a complete description of its nef and effective cones. Moreover, we show that there exists a rational polyhedral fundamental domain for the action of a certain…

Suppose that $f:X\to Y$ is a dominant morphism of 3-folds over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We prove that there exist sequences of blow ups of points and nonsingular curves $\Phi:X_1\to X$ and $\Psi:Y_1\to Y$ such…

P-resolutions of two-dimensional, cyclic quotient singularities have been introduced to study deformation theory. Those P-resolutions (as well as the singularities themselves) are toric varieties. In the present paper we give a straight,…

Various formal blow-up scenarious for the Navier--Stokes equaitons in 3D are discussed. A particular interest is payed to "twistor mechanisms" based on angular logarithmic blow-up travelling waves, and to a formation of "blow-up tornado"…

We study divisors in the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^n$ at points in general position that are non-special with respect to the notion of linear speciality introduced in [5]. We describe the cohomology groups of their strict transforms via the…

It is shown that third-order 1D nonlinear dispersion equations admit single point gradient catastrophe, described by blow-up-type similarity solutions. After blow-up, the solutions admit shock wave-type self-similar extensions. Snce such…

We prove that both classical Chevalley-Warning-Ax and Tsen theorems hold for the blowing up of a quintic 3-fold along a line of multiplicity 3. Both proofs, which are of the same spirit than the original ones, involve the description of…
