Motivated by a similar result of Dumnicki, K\"uronya, Maclean and Szemberg under a slightly stronger hypothesis, we exhibit irrational single-point Seshadri constants on a rational surface $X$ obtained by blowing up very general points of…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$ and let $\mathcal{L}$ be a nef line bundle defined over $k$. We prove that if $x\in X$ is a $k$-rational point then the Seshadri constant $\epsilon(X,…
For a positive integer $n$, let $X_n \to X_{n-1} \to \ldots \to X_2 \to X_1 \to X_0$ be a Bott tower of height $n$, and let $L$ be a nef line bundle on $X_n$. We compute Seshadri constants $\varepsilon(X_n,L,x)$ of $L$ at any point $x \in…
Given an etale quotient q:X->Y of smooth projective varieties we relate the simple Seshadri constant of a line bundle M on Y with the multiple Seshadri constant of q*M in the points of the fiber. We apply this method to compute the Seshadri…
In "Seshadri fibrations of algebraic surfaces" [arXiv:0709.2592v1] we showed that if the multiple point Seshadri constants of an ample line bundle on a smooth projective surface in very general points satisfy certain inequality then the…
Starting with the pioneering work of Ein and Lazarsfeld restrictions on values of Seshadri constants on algebraic surfaces have been studied by many authors. In the present note we show how approximation involving continued fractions…
In the present note, we focus on certain properties of special curves that might be used in the theory of multi-point Seshadri constants for ample line bundles on the complex projective plane. In particular, we provide three…
Seshadri constants are local invariants, introduced by Demailly, which measure the local positivity of ample line bundles. Recent interest in Seshadri constants stems on the one hand from the fact that bounds on Seshadri constants yield,…
We give the lower bound on Seshadri constants for the case of very ample line bundles on threefolds. We consider the situation when the Seshadri constant is strictly less than 2 and give a version of Bauer's theorem \cite[Theorem 2.1]{B1}…
Given a nef and big line bundle $L$ on a projective variety $X$ of dimension $d \geq 2$, we prove that the Seshadri constant of $L$ at a very general point is larger than $(d+1)^{\frac{1}{d}-1}$. This slightly improves the lower bound $1/d$…
We study Seshadri constants of certain ample vector bundles on projective varieties. Our main motivation is the following question: Under what conditions are the Seshadri constants of ample vector bundles at least 1 at all points of the…
Seshadri constants on abelian surfaces are fully understood in the case of Picard number one. Little is known so far for simple abelian surfaces of higher Picard number. In this paper we investigate principally polarized abelian surfaces…
Let $X$ be a smooth variety and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. If $\pi^{alg}_{1}(X)$ is large, we show that the Seshadri constant $\epsilon(p^{*}L)$ can be made arbitrarily large by passing to a finite \'etale cover…
Let $X_r$ denote the blow-up of the hyperelliptic surface $X$ at $r$ very general points. In this paper, we first provide a criterion for the ampleness of a line bundle on $X_r$ and compare it with an existing result. We then study the…
The aim of this note is to study local and global Seshadri constants for a family of smooth surfaces with prescribed polarization. We shall first observe that given $\alpha$ being smaller than the square root of the degree of polarization,…
A broadly applicable geometric approach for constructing nef divisors on blow ups of algebraic surfaces at n general points is given; it works for all surfaces in all characteristics for any n. This construction is used to obtain…
We study families of curves covering a projective surface and give lower bounds on the self-intersection of the members of such families, improving results of Ein-Lazarsfeld and Xu. We apply the obtained inequalities to get new insights on…
Let $X = \mathbb{P}(E_1) \times_C \mathbb{P}(E_2)$ where $C$ is a smooth curve and let $E_1$, $E_2$ be vector bundles over $C$. In this paper, we extend the results in \cite{K-M-R} by computing the nef cone of $X$ without restriction on the…
Let $L$ be a nef line bundle on a smooth complex projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$. Demailly has introduced a very interesting invariant --- the Seshadri constant $\epsilon(L,x)$ --- which in effect measures how positive $L$ is…
In this note we contribute to the study of Seshadri constants on abelian and bielliptic surfaces. We specifically focus on bounds that hold on all such surfaces, depending only on the self-intersection of the ample line bundle under…
