Let M be a surface with conical singularities, and consider a degenerating family of surfaces obtained from M by removing disks of smaller and smaller radius around a subset of the conical singularities. Such families arise naturally in the…

We prove that the characteristic foliation $F$ on a non-singular divisor $D$ in an irreducible projective hyperkaehler manifold $X$ cannot be algebraic, unless the leaves of $F$ are rational curves or $X$ is a surface. More generally, we…

Let X = G/P be a cominuscule rational homogeneous variety. (Equivalently, X admits the structure of a compact Hermitian symmetric space.) I give a uniform description (that is, independent of type) of the irreducible components of the…

Let X be a smooth toric variety defined by the fan {\Sigma} . We consider {\Sigma} as a finite set with topology and define a natural sheaf of graded algebras A_{\Sigma} on {\Sigma} . The category of modules over A_{\Sigma} is studied…

In this article we give a general approach to the following analogue of Shafarevich's conjecture for some polarized algebraic varieties; suppose that we fix a type of an algebraic variety and look at families of such type of varieties over…

If $S$ is a scheme of characteristic $p$, we define an $F$-zip over $S$ to be a vector bundle with two filtrations plus a collection of semi-linear isomorphisms between the graded pieces of the filtrations. For every smooth proper morphism…

Let $X$ be any rational surface. We construct a tilting bundle $T$ on $X$. Moreover, we can choose $T$ in such way that its endomorphism algebra is quasi-hereditary. In particular, the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$ is…

Let $X$ be a reduced complex space of pure dimension. We consider divergent integrals of certain forms on $X$ that are singular along a subvariety defined by the zero set of a holomorphic section of some holomorphic vector bundle $E…

Let $X$ be a projective K3 surfaces. In two examples where there exists a fine moduli space $M$ of stable vector bundles on $X$, isomorphic to a Hilbert scheme of points, we prove that the universal family $\mathcal{E}$ on $X\times M$ can…

Let $X$ be a variety with a stratification $\mathcal{S}$ into smooth locally closed subvarieties such that $X$ is locally a product along each stratum (e.g., a symplectic singularity). We prove that assigning to each open subset $U \subset…

Let X be an affine irreducible variety over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. Given an automorphism F, we denote by k(X)^F its field of invariants, i.e. the set of rational functions f on X such that f(F)=f. Let n(F)…

We consider normal projective n-dimensional varieties X whose anticanonical divisor class -K is ample and where every Weil divisor is a rational multiple of K. The index i is the largest integer such that K/i exists as a Weil divisor. We…

We study foliations $\mathcal{F}$ on Hirzebruch surfaces $S_\delta$ and prove that, similarly to those on the projective plane, any $\mathcal{F}$ can be represented by a bi-homogeneous polynomial affine $1$-form. In case $\mathcal{F}$ has…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g>1 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. Pull-back by the (absolute) Frobenius on X only defines a rational morphism on the moduli scheme of rank-2 vector bundles on X, because…

The determinant for complex matrices cannot be extended to quaternionic matrices. Instead, the Study determinant and the closely related $q$-determinant are widely used. We show that the Study determinant can be characterized as the unique…

We study the subvariety of singular sections, the discriminant, of a base point free linear system $|L|$ on a smooth toric variety $X$. On one hand we describe pairs $(X,L)$ for which the discriminant is of low dimension. Precisely, we…

Let G be a complex connected reductive group. I. Losev has shown that a smooth affine spherical G-variety X is uniquely determined by its weight monoid, which is the set of irreducible representations of G that occur in the coordinate ring…

Let $X$ be a Riemann surface of genus $g\ge 1$ endowed with a flat conical metric $m$ and let ${\rm det}\,\Delta$ be the $\zeta$-regularized determinant of the Friedrichs Laplacian on $(X,m)$. We derive variational formulas for ${\rm…

We prove that the variety defined by the determinant of the matrix of diagonals is $F$-pure for matrices of all sizes and in all positive prime characteristics. Moreover, we find a system of parameters for it.

The Hilbert scheme $X^{[3]}$ of length-$3$ subschemes of a smooth projective variety $X$ is known to be smooth and projective. We investigate whether the property of having a multiplicative Chow-Kuenneth decomposition is stable under taking…
