We give explicit blowups of the projective plane in positive characteristic that contain smooth rational curves of arbitrarily negative self-intersection, showing that the Bounded Negativity Conjecture fails even for rational surfaces in…

Deng-Ning-Wang-Zhou showed that a Hermitian holomorphic vector bundle is Griffiths semi-positive if it satisfies the optimal $L^2$-extension condition. As a generalization, we present a quantitative characterization of Griffiths positivity…

We classify the unipotent character sheaves on a fixed connected component of a reductive algebraic group under a mild hypothesis on the characteristic of the ground field.

We prove vanishing of the higher direct images of the structure (and the canonical) sheaf for a proper birational morphism with source a smooth variety and target the quotient of a smooth variety by a finite group of order prime to the…

We survey recent developments in the study of perverse sheaves on semi-abelian varieties. As concrete applications, we discuss various obstructions on the homotopy type of complex algebraic manifolds (expressed in terms of their cohomology…

Let X->B be a morphism of varieties in characteristic zero. Semistable reduction has been proved for dim(B)=1 (Kempf, Knudsen, Mumford, Saint-Donat), dim(X)=dim(B)-1 (de Jong) and dim(X)=dim(B)+2 (Alexeev, Kollar, Shepherd-Barron). In this…

We initiate the rigorous study of classification in semimetric spaces, which are point sets with a distance function that is non-negative and symmetric, but need not satisfy the triangle inequality. For metric spaces, the doubling dimension…

In this paper, we prove the abundance conjecture for threefolds over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p > 3$ in the case of numerical dimension equals to $2$. More precisely, we prove that if $(X,B)$ be a projective lc threefold pair…

We define two different weakenings of coarse amenability (also known as Yu's property A), namely fibred coarse amenability and coarse amenability at infinity. These two properties allow us to prove that a residually finite group is coarsely…

In this paper, we define weighted relative $p(.)$-capacity and discuss properties of capacity in the space $W_{\vartheta }^{1,p(.)}(\mathbb{R}^{n}).$ Also, we investigate some properties of weighted variable Sobolev capacity. It is shown…

We prove some semipositivity theorems for singular varieties coming from graded polarizable admissible variations of mixed Hodge structure. As an application, we obtain that the moduli functor of stable varieties is semipositive in the…

In this paper we consider various notions of positivity for distributions on complex projective manifolds. We start by analyzing distributions having big slope with respect to curve classes, obtaining characterizations of generic projective…

Conditions are given under which an infinitesimal automorphism of a torsion-free connection preserving a symplectic form is necessarily a symplectic vector field. An example is given of a compact symplectic manifold admitting a flat…

We completely solve a problem of S. Zhang about the positivity of a normalized height on the moduli space of semistable varieties of given degree and given dimension.

We generalize Fujiki relation of Beauville-Bogomolov quadratic form on a projective symplectic variety. As an application, we study a fibre space structure of a projective symplectic variety.

This work explores the space of foliations on projective spaces over algebraically closed fields of positive characteristic, with a particular focus on the codimension one case. It describes how the irreducible components of these spaces…

We consider the class of integer rectifiable currents without boundary satisfying a positivity condition. We establish that these currents can be written as a linear superposition of graphs of finitely many functions with bounded variation.

This is a large audience version of our previous work (see math.AG/0301146) in which we prove the existence of an (exact) equivalence between the category of coherent analytic sheaves and the category of $\bar{\partial}$-coherent sheaves.…

We define and study a relative perverse $t$-structure associated with any finitely presented morphism of schemes $f: X\to S$, with relative perversity equivalent to perversity of the restrictions to all geometric fibres of $f$. The…

This paper deals with properties of the algebraic variety defined as the set of zeros of a "deficient" sequence of multivariate polynomials. We consider two types of varieties: ideal-theoretic complete intersections and absolutely…
