Let L be a homogeneous ample line bundle on any flag variety G/P and let T be a maximal torus of G. We prove a general necessary and sufficient condition for L to descend as a line bundle on the GIT quotient of G/P by T. We use this result…

A theorem of Green says that a line bundle of degree at least $2g+1+p$ on a smooth curve $X$ of genus $g$ has property $N_p$. We prove a similar conclusion for certain singular, reducible curves $X$ under suitable degree bounds over all…

Let L be a normally generated line bundle on X; we say L satisfies property N_p (notation after Mark Green) if the matrices in the free resolution of R (the homogeneous coordinate ring of X) over S (the homogeneous coordinate ring of the…

We study higher syzygies of a ruled surface $X$ over a curve of genus $g$ with the numerical invariant $e$. Let $L \in {Pic}X$ be a line bundle in the numerical class of $aC_0 +bf$. We prove that for $0 \leq e \leq g-3$, $L$ satisfies…

Our goal is to study the syzygies of the projective embeddings defined by ample line bundles on a fake projective plane S. The syzygies are studied in terms of the property $N_p$. For various kinds of ample line bundles, we give explicit…

We exhibit an example of a line bundle M on a smooth complex projective variety Y s.t. M satisfy Property N_p for some p, the p-module of a minimal resolution of the ideal of the embedding of Y by M is nonzero and M^2 does not satisfy…

When the action of a reductive group on a projective variety has a suitable linearisation, Mumford's geometric invariant theory (GIT) can be used to construct and study an associated quotient variety. In this article we describe how…

Let $X$ be a connected, smooth, and projective curve of genus $g$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p >0$. This paper investigates a characteristic-$p$ analogue of a well-known fact concerning flat vector bundles in…

We consider the action of the one-parameter subgroup of the special linear group corresponding to a simple root on Grassmannians and describe the structure of the associated Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) quotients with respect to…

On a special line bundle $L$ on a projective curve $C$ we introduce a geometric condition called $(\Delta_q)$. When $L=K_C$ this condition implies gon$(C) \ge q+2$. For an arbitrary special $L$ we show that $(\Delta_3)$ implies that $L$ has…

For an algebraic set $X$ (union of varieties) embedded in projective space, we say that $X$ satisfies property $\textbf{N}_{d,p}$, $(d\ge 2)$ if the $i$-th syzygies of the homogeneous coordinate ring are generated by elements of degree $<…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of exceptional type over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. This paper continues a long-standing effort to classify the connected reductive subgroups of $G$. Having previously…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a field $k$ which is algebraically closed of characteristic $p \neq 0$. We prove a structure theorem for a class of subgroup schemes of $G$, for $p$ bounded below by the Coxeter number of $G$. As…

Let G be a reductive linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. We study J.-P. Serre's notion of G-complete reducibility for subgroups of G. In particular, for a subgroup H and a normal subgroup N of H,…

In this article, we prove necessary conditions for Hibi rings to satisfy Green-Lazarsfeld property $N_p$ for $p=2$ and $3$. We also show that if a Hibi ring satisfies property $N_4$, then it is a polynomial ring or it has a linear…

The main result of this paper is the following: let d be a natural number >= 3; the line bundle O(1,...,1) on the product of d copies of the projective line P^1 satisfies Property N_p of Green-Lazarsfeld if and only if p <= 3.

For a vector bundle $\mathcal{E}$ of rank $n+1$ over a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $g$, let $X=\P_C (\mathcal{E})$ with projection map $\pi:X\to C$. In this paper we investigate the minimal free resolution of homogeneous coordinate…
