We define the flag space and space of singular vectors for an arrangement A of hyperplanes in projective space equipped with a system of weights a: A --> C. We show that the contravariant bilinear form of the corresponding weighted central…

We consider the compressible Oldroyd-B model derived in \cite{Barrett-Lu-Suli}, where the existence of global-in-time finite energy weak solutions was shown in two dimensional setting. In this paper, we first state a local well-posedness…

There is a nice combinatorial formula of P. Beelen and M. Datta for the $r$-th generalized Hamming weight of an affine cartesian code. Using this combinatorial formula we give an easy to evaluate formula to compute the $r$-th generalized…

Let $H$ and $H'$ be two ample line bundles over a smooth projective surface $X$, and $M(H)$ (resp. $M(H')$) the coarse moduli scheme of $H$-semistable (resp. $H'$-semistable) sheaves of fixed type $(r,c_1,c_2)$. We construct a sequence of…

Let $X$ be a singular algebraic variety defined over a field $k$, with quotient field $K(X)$. Let $s \geq 2$ be the highest multiplicity of $X$ and $F_s(X)$ the set of points of multiplicity $s$. If $Y\subset F_s(X)$ is a regular center and…

Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a global field, let d_f be the dynamical degree of f, and let h_X be a Weil height on X relative to an ample divisor. We prove that h_X(f^n(P)) << (d_f + e)^n…

We study the problem of classifying the irreducible projective varieties $X$ of dimension $n\ge 2$ in $\Bbb P^N$ which contain an algebraic family $\Cal F$ of dimension $h+1$ ($h<n$) of subvarieties $Y$ of dimension $n-h$, each one…

The purposes of this article are threefold. First, to determine numerically when an arbitrary blowup of a smooth surface is smooth. We show the surface is smooth if and only if certain rational parameters involving log discrepancy and…

Let K be an algebraically closed field endowed with a complete non-archimedean norm. Let f:Y -> X be a map of K-affinoid varieties. We prove that for each point x in X, either f is flat at x, or there exists, at least locally around x, a…

We prove that any three dimensional terminal singularity $P \in X$ can be resolved by a sequence of divisorial contractions with minimal discrepancies which are weighted blowups over points.

It is now well known that the moduli space of a vector bundle for heterotic string compactifications to four dimensions is parameterized by a set of sections of a weighted projective space bundle of a particular kind, known as Looijenga's…

We study the local geometry of the pullback of a variety via a finite holomorphic map. In particular, we are looking for properties of $V = F^{-1}(W)$ such that if $V$ has the property $A$, then $W$ must have the property $A$. We show that…
