Supersymmetric heterotic string models, built from a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ endowed with a stable vector bundle $V$, usually lead to an anomaly mismatch between $c_2(V)$ and $c_2(X)$; this leads to the question whether the difference can…
Let $Y$ be an effective Cartier divisor of a smooth variety $Z$. Let $X_{i}$, $i\in \{1,\cdots,n\}$ be a set of pairwise disjoint smooth subvarieties in $Y$ such that their union contains the singular locus of $Y$. In this paper, we give a…
Assume that $X$ is a compact complex analytic variety which has quotient singularities in codimension 2, and that $\mathcal{F}$ is a reflexive sheaf on $X$. Using orbifold modifications, we can define first and second homological Chern…
Let $(X,D)$ be a log smooth pair of dimension $n$, where $D$ is a reduced effective divisor such that the log canonical divisor $K_X + D$ is pseudo-effective. Let $G$ be a connected algebraic subgroup of $\mathrm{Aut}(X,D)$. We show that…
Let $X$ be a nonsingular projective $n$-fold $(n\ge 2)$ of Fano or of general type with ample canonical bundle $K_X$ over an algebraic closed field $\kappa$ of any characteristic. We produce a new method to give a bunch of inequalities in…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler fourfold with klt singularities and vanishing first Chern class, smooth in codimension two. We show that $X$ admits a Beauville-Bogomolov decomposition: a finite quasi-\'etale cover of $X$ splits as a product…
We consider Calabi-Yau threefolds $X$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ that are not liftable to characteristic $0$ or liftable ones with $p=2$. It is unknown whether Kodaira vanishing holds for these varieties.…
Let M be a (possibly non-orientable) compact 3-manifold with (possibly empty) boundary consisting of tori and Klein bottles. Let $X\subset\partial M$ be a trivalent graph such that $\partial M\setminus X$ is a union of one disc for each…
Motivated by Koll\'{a}r-Matsusaka's Riemann-Roch type inequalities, applying effective very ampleness of adjoint bundles on Fujita conjecture and log-concavity given by Khovanskii-Teissier inequalities, we show that for any partition…
In this paper we present, for any integers $0\leq \nu \leq n$, a set of inequalities satisfied by the Chern classes of any minimal complex projective variety of dimension $n$ and numerical dimension $\nu$. In the cases where $\nu$ is either…
A conjecture by Campana and Peternell says that if a positive multiple of $K_X$ is linearly equivalent to an effective divisor $D$ plus a pseudo-effective divisor, then the Kodaira dimension of $X$ should be at least as big as the Iitaka…
We examine the class of compact Hermitian manifolds with constant holomorphic sectional curvature. Such manifolds are conjectured to be K\"ahler (hence a complex space form) when the constant is non-zero and Chern flat (hence a quotient of…
We prove a Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing theorem on a normal compact Kahler space X: if L is a nef line bundle with numerical dimension at least equal to 2, then the q-th cohomology group of K_X+L vanishes for q at least equal to the dimension…
We ask about the simply connected compact smooth 6-manifolds which can support structures of Calabi-Yau threefolds. In particular, we study the interesting case of Calabi-Yau threefolds $X$ with second betti number 3. We have a cup-product…
We discuss secondary (and higher) characteristic classes for algebraic vector bundles with trivial top Chern class. We show that if X is a smooth affine scheme of dimension d over a field k of finite 2-cohomological dimension (with char(k)…
Let $k$ be an imperfect field. Let $X$ be a regular variety over $k$ and set $Y$ to be the normalization of $(X \times_k k^{1/p^{\infty}})_{{\rm red}}$. In this paper, we show that $K_Y+C=f^*K_X$ for some effective divisor $C$ on $Y$. We…
We prove that if $X$ is a compact complex analytic variety, which has quotient singularities in codimension 2, then there is a projective bimeromorphic morphism $f\colon Y\to X$, such that $Y$ has quotient singularities, and that the…
In this article we prove a finiteness result on the number of log minimal models for $3$-folds in char $p>5$. We then use this result to prove a version of Batyrev's conjecture on the structure of nef cone of curves on $3$-folds in…
We provide formulas for the Chern classes of linear submanifolds of the moduli spaces of Abelian differentials and hence for their Euler characteristic. This includes as special case the moduli spaces of k-differentials, for which we set up…
Let $X\rightarrow S$ be a fibration of relative dimension at most two and let $(X,\Delta)$ be a klt pair for which $K_X+\Delta \equiv_S 0$. We show that there are only finitely many Mori chambers and Mori faces in the movable effective cone…
