The higher Nash blowup of an algebraic variety replaces singular points with limits of certain spaces carrying higher-order data associated to the variety at non-singular points. In this note we will define a higher-order Jacobian matrix…

For each non-negative integer $n$, we define the $n$-th Nash blowup of an algebraic variety, and call them all higher Nash blowups. When $n=1$, it coincides with the classical Nash blowup. We study higher Nash blowups of curves in detail…

In this paper we describe the implementation that led to the counterexamples to the Nash blowup conjectures recently discovered by the authors. We also provide new examples of toric varieties with prescribed singularities that are not…

Any Lie algebroid $A$ admits a Nash-type blow-up $\mathrm{Nash}(A)$ that sits in a nice short exact sequence of Lie algebroids $0\rightarrow K\rightarrow \mathrm{Nash}(A)\rightarrow \mathcal{D}\rightarrow 0$ with $K$ a Lie algebra bundle…

The embedded Nash problem for a hypersurface in a smooth algebraic variety, is to characterize geometrically the maximal irreducible families of arcs with fixed order of contact along the hypersurface. We show that divisors on minimal…

We construct a series of blowups $(\widetilde M_i,\pi_i)_{i\in \mathbb N_0}$ of a singular foliation by applying to the universal Lie $\infty$-algebroid of a singular foliation the so-called Nash modification. For $i=0$, we recover a blowup…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety defined over a field of characteristic zero, and let $\xi \in \mathrm{\underline{Max}\; mult}(X)$ be a point in the closed subset of maximum multiplicity of $X$. We provide a criterion, given in terms of…

It is a long-standing question whether an arbitrary variety is desingularized by finitely many normalized Nash blow-ups. We consider this question in the case of a toric variety. We interpret the normalized Nash blow-up in polyhedral terms,…

In his previous paper, the author has defined a higher version of the Nash blowup and considered it a possible candidate for the one-step resolution. In this paper, we will introduce another higher version of the Nash blowup and prove that…

In this paper we explore the generalized Nash problem for arcs on a germ of smooth surface: given two prime divisors above its special point, to determine whether the arc space of one of them is included in the arc space of the other one.…

We initiate the study of the resolution of singularities properties of Nash blowups over fields of prime characteristic. We prove that the iteration of normalized Nash blowups desingularizes normal toric surfaces. We also introduce a prime…

We compute the Nash blow-up of a cominuscule Schubert variety. In particular, we show that the Nash blow-up is algebraically isomorphic to another Schubert variety of the same Lie type. As a consequence, we give a new characterization of…

We revisit the problem of resolution of singularities of toric curves by iterating Nash modification. We give a bound on the number of iterations required to obtain the resolution. We also introduce a different approach on counting…

We initiate the study of Nash blowups in prime characteristic. First, we show that a normal variety is non-singular if and only if its Nash blowup is an isomorphism, extending a theorem by A. Nobile. We also study higher Nash blowups, as…

The higher Nash blowup of an algebraic variety replaces singular points with limits of certain spaces carrying higher order data associated to the variety at non-singular points. In the case of normal toric varieties we give a combinatorial…

We address Nash problem for surface singularities using wedges. We give a refinement of the characterisation of A. Reguera of the image of the Nash map in terms of wedges. Our improvement consists in a characterisation of the bijectivity of…

We study finite morphisms of varieties and the link between their top multiplicity loci under certain assumptions. More precisely, we focus on how to determine that link in terms of the spaces of arcs of the varieties.

The Nash blowing-up (or modification) of an algebraic variety $X$ is a canonical process that produces a proper, birational morphism $\pi : X' \to X$ of varieties. It is expected that the singularities of $X'$ will be better than those of…

Given a variety $X$ over a perfect field, we study the partition defined on $X$ by the multiplicity (into equimultiple points), and the effect of blowing up at smooth equimultiple centers. Over fields of characteristic zero we prove…

Let X be an algebraic variety of characteristic zero. Terminal valuations are defined in the sense of the minimal model program, as those valuations given by the exceptional divisors on a minimal model over X. We prove that every terminal…
