Shafarevich's hyperbolicity conjecture asserts that a family of curves over a quasi-projective 1-dimensional base is isotrivial unless the logarithmic Kodaira dimension of the base is positive. More generally it has been conjectured by…
In this article, for generalized projective spaces with any weights, we prove four main theorems in three different contexts where the Unital Set Condition USC (Definition $2.8$) on ideals is further examined. In the first context we prove,…
This paper seeks to prove the bijectivity of the "Nash mapping" from the set of irreducible components of the scheme parametrizing analytic arcs on an algebraic surface $X$ whose origin is a singular point, into the set of irreducible…
We show the existence of good hyperplane sections for schemes over discrete valuation rings with good or (quasi) semistable reduction, and the existence of good Lefschetz pencils for schemes with good reduction or ordinary quadratic…
The following selection theorem is established:\\ Let $X$ be a compactum possessing a binary normal subbase $\mathcal S$ for its closed subsets. Then every set-valued $\mathcal S$-continuous map $\Phi\colon Z\to X$ with closed $\mathcal…
We study the existence of zero-cycles of degree one on varieties that are defined over a function field of a curve over a complete discretely valued field. In particular, we show that local-global principles hold for such zero-cycles…
We present scheme theoretic methods that apply to the study of secant varieties. This mainly concerns finite schemes and their smoothability. The theory generalises to the base fields of any characteristic, and even to non-algebraically…
For $E$ a presheaf of spectra on the category of smooth $k$-schemes satisfying Nisnevich excision, we prove that the canonical map from the algebraic singular complex of the theory $E$ with quasi-finite supports to the theory $E$ with…
Recently continuous rational maps between real algebraic varieties have attracted the attention of several researchers. In this paper we continue the investigation of approximation properties of continuous rational maps with values in…
We study Bloch-Ogus theory and the Gersten conjecture for homology theories with duality satisfying certain properties, in particular for \'etale cohomology with finite coefficients coprime to the residue characteristic of the base, for…
Let H be a homology theory for algebraic varieties over a field k. To a complete k-variety X, one naturally attaches an ideal of the coefficient ring H(k). We show that, when X is regular, this ideal depends only on the upper Chow motive of…
We give in this paper an isomorphism theorem between derived functors over categories of modules.There is a nice class of categories that gives examples in which this theorem applies for a special construction. This leads us to a new…
The following conjecture arose out of discussions between B. Harbourne, J. Ro\'e, C. Cilberto and R. Miranda: for a smooth projective surface $X$ there exists a positive constant $c_X$ such that $h^1(\mathcal O_X(C))\le c_X h^0(\mathcal…
Any smooth, projective variety satisfies the Hodge conjecture in codimension one, known as the Lefschetz (1,1) theorem. Totaro formulated a version for singular varieties. He asked whether the natural Bloch-Gillet-Soul\'{e} cycle class map…
The Milnor conjecture has been a driving force in the theory of quadratic forms over fields, guiding the development of the theory of cohomological invariants, ushering in the theory of motivic cohomology, and touching on questions ranging…
Let $X$ be a complex projective bundle. We prove that $X$ admits an endomorphism of degree $>1$ and commuting with the projection to the base, if and only if $X$ trivializes after a finite covering. When $X$ is the projectivization of a…
This is an essentially extended version of the preprint dated by August 2005 (this includes now the varieties of types F_4, E_6 and E_7). Let k be a field of characteristic not 2 and 3. Let G be an exceptional simple algebraic group of type…
The aim of this paper is to connect two important and apparently unrelated theories: motivic homotopy theory and ramification theory. We construct motivic homotopy categories over a qcqs base scheme $S$, in which cohomology theories with…
We give necessary conditions for the surjectivity of the higher Gaussian maps on a polarized K3 surface. As an application, we show that the higher $k$-th Gauss map for a general curve of genus $g$ (that depends quadratically with $k$) is…
We formulate a strengthening of the Zariski dense orbit conjecture for birational maps of dynamical degree one. So, given a quasiprojective variety $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $0$, endowed with a…
