We generalize the notion of coisotropic hypersurfaces to subvarieties of Grassmannians having arbitrary codimension. To every projective variety X, Gel'fand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky associate a series of coisotropic hypersurfaces in…

Given a projective variety $X$ of codimension $k+1$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ the Chow hypersurface $Z_X$ is the hypersurface of the Grassmannian $\operatorname{Gr}(k, n)$ parametrizing projective linear spaces that intersect $X$. We introduce the…

Quadrics in the Grassmannian of lines in 3-space form a 19-dimensional projective space. We study the subvariety of coisotropic hypersurfaces. Following Gel'fand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky, it decomposes into Chow forms of plane conics, Chow…

This paper generalizes classical results of Griffiths, Dolgachev and Steenbrink on the cohomology of hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces. Given a $d$-dimensional projective simplicial toric variety $P$ and an ample hypersurface $X$…

The first purpose of this paper is to generalize the well-known Maslov indices of maps of open Riemann surfaces with boundary lying on Lagrangian submanifolds to maps with boundary lying on coisotropic submanifolds in symplectic manifolds.…

For a projective hypersurface $X \subset \P^n$, the images of the polar maps of degree $k$ are studied. The cohomology class defined by these maps is calculated and classical results on dual varieties are presented as applications.

Let $X$ be a K3 surface, and $H$ its primitive polarization of the degree $H^2=2rs$, $r,s\ge 1$. The moduli space of sheaves over $X$ with the isotropic Mukai vector $(r,H,s)$ is again a K3 surface, $Y$. In math.AG/0206158, math.AG/0304415…

This is an introduction to the hyperderminant, according to Gelfand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky. The "triangle inequality", characterizing the Segre varieties such that their dual variety is a hypersurface, is proved in a geometric way…

This small note is about Pl\"ucker hyperplane sections $X$ of the Grassmannian $\operatorname{Gr}(3,V_{10})$. Inspired by the analogy with cubic fourfolds, we prove that the only non-trivial Chow group of $X$ is generated by Grassmannians…

Let $Y$ be a Pl\"ucker hypersurface in a symplectic Grassmannian $I_1 Gr(3,n)$ or a bisymplectic Grassmannian $I_2 Gr(3,n)$. We show that many Chow groups of $Y$ inject into cohomology.

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible nondegenerate projective variety and let $X^*$ denote its dual variety. It is well known that $\sigma_2(X)^*$, the dual of the 2-secant variety of $X$, is a component of the singular locus of $X^*$. The locus…

For a given irreducible projective variety $X$, the closure of the set of all hyperplanes containing tangents to $X$ is the projectively dual variety $X^{\vee}$. We study the singular locus of projectively dual varieties of certain…

Let $X$ be a K3 surface with a polarization $H$ of the degree $H^2=2rs$, $r,s\ge 1$, and the isotropic Mukai vector $v=(r,H,s)$ is primitive. The moduli space of sheaves over $X$ with the isotropic Mukai vector $(r,H,s)$ is again a K3…

Suppose that $X$ is an infinite, connected, locally finite, quasi-transitive graph with the property that every bi-infinite quasi-geodesic uniformly coarsely separates $X$ into exactly two deep pieces. We show that such an $X$ is…

We show that the Andr\'{e} motive of a hyper-K\"{a}hler variety $X$ over a field $K \subset \mathbb{C}$ with $b_2(X)>6$ is governed by its component in degree $2$. More precisely, we prove that if $X_1$ and $X_2$ are deformation equivalent…

Given a hypersurface in a complex projective space, we prove that the multidegrees of its toric polar map agree, up to sign, with the coefficients of the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a distinguished open set, namely the complement of…

We study curvature-adapted submanifolds of general symmetric spaces. We generalize Cartan's theorem for isoparametric hypersurfaces of spheres and Wang's classification of isoparametric Hopf hypersurfaces in complex projective spaces to any…

In [HLY1], Hosono, Lian, and Yau posed a conjecture characterizing the set of solutions to certain Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky hypergeometric equations which are realized as periods of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in a Gorenstein Fano toric…

Given a complex vector space $V$ of finite dimension, its Grassmannian variety parametrizes all subspaces of $V$ of a given dimension. Similarly, if a finite group $G$ acts on $V$, its invariant Grassmannian parametrizes all the…

In this paper we give a complete local parametric classification of the hypersurfaces with dimension at least three of a space form that carry a totally geodesic foliation of codimension one. A classification under the assumption that the…
