Motivated by the study of Fano type varieties we define a new class of log pairs that we call asymptotically log Fano varieties and strongly asymptotically log Fano varieties. We study their properties in dimension two under an additional…
Let X be a normal projective variety, and let A be an ample Cartier divisor on X. We prove that the twisted cotangent sheaf $\Omega_X \otimes A$ is generically nef with respect to the polarisation A unless X is a projective space. As an…
Let X be a quasiprojective smooth surface defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We show that if X is Frobenius split then so is the Hilbert scheme Hilb^n(X) of n points in X. In particular, we get the higher…
We study the relationship between positivity of line bundles restricted to complete intersection subvarieties and the vanishing of higher cohomology groups. Based on this connection we prove generalizations of the vanishing theorems of…
We give a proof that the Riemann hypothesis for hypersurfaces over finite fields implies the result for all smooth proper varieties, by a deformation argument which does not use the theory of Lefschetz pencils or the l-adic Fourier…
We associate to a pair $(X,D)$, consisting of a smooth scheme with a divisor $D\in \text{Div}(X)\otimes \mathbb{Q}$ whose support is a divisor with normal crossings, a canonical Deligne--Mumford stack over $X$ on which $D$ becomes integral.…
In this work we establish a sharp geometric inequality for closed hypersurfaces in complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds with asymptotically nonnegative curvature using standard comparison methods in Riemannian Geometry. These methods…
In this paper we further develop a Grassmannian technique used to prove results about very general hypersurfaces and present three applications. First, we provide a short proof of the Kobayashi Conjecture given previous results on the…
Let $X$ be a smooth Fano variety over $\mathbb{C}$ and let $B$ be a smooth projective curve over $\mathbb{C}$. Geometric Manin's Conjecture predicts the structure of the irreducible components $M \subset \mathrm{Mor}(B, X)$ parametrizing…
We demonstrate the generic invariance of the Fano type property in cases where the volumes of anti-canonical divisors of Fano type fibers are a constant over a Zariski-dense subset, or the Fano type fibers are dimension $2$. Additionally,…
Fujita's conjecture is known to be false in positive characteristic. We conjecture and give an approach to a new variant of Fujita's conjecture for the basepoint-freeness, very ampleness, and jet ampleness of linear systems of the form…
Let $G=A \ast B$ be a free product of freely indecomposable groups. We explicitly construct quasimorphisms on $G$ which are invariant with respect to all automorphisms of $G$. We also prove that the space of such quasimorphisms is…
We state several questions, and prove some partial results, about the Chow ring $A^\ast(X)$ of complete intersections in projective space. For one thing, we prove that if $X$ is a general Calabi-Yau hypersurface, the intersection product…
We study intersection theoretic problems in the setting of Chow-Witt groups with coefficients in a fixed Milnor-Witt cycle algebra over a perfect field. We prove that the product maps on such groups satisfy the following property: given two…
The objective of this article is to give an effective algebraic characterization of normal crossing hypersurfaces in complex manifolds. It is shown that a hypersurface has normal crossings if and only if it is a free divisor, has a radical…
We introduce an inductive argument for proving birational superrigidity and K-stability of singular Fano complete intersections of index one, using the same types of information from lower dimensions. In particular, we prove that a…
We give a counterexample and some conclusions for effective non-vanishing of Weil divisors on algebraic surfaces.
We prove the filling area conjecture in the hyperelliptic case. In particular, we establish the conjecture for all genus 1 fillings of the circle, extending P. Pu's result in genus 0. We translate the problem into a question about closed…
This is a report on our newly proposed model of dynamical supersymmetry breaking with some details of the analysis involved. The model in the simplest version has only a chiral superfield (multiplet), with a strong four-superfield…
In this paper we prove that on a complete smooth metric measure space with non-negative Bakry-\'Emery-Ricci curvature if the space of weighted L^2 harmonic one-forms is non-trivial then the weighted volume of the manifold is finite and…
