Let $\pi\colon \mathcal{X}\to B$ be a family whose general fiber $X_b$ gives a $(d_1,...,d_a)$ polarisation of a general Abelian variety where $1\leq d_i\leq 2$, $i=1,...,a$ and $a\geq 4$. We show that the fibers are in the same birational…
In this article, we prove a strong version of local Bertini theorem for normality on local rings in mixed characteristic. The main result asserts that a generic hyperplane section of a normal, Cohen-Macaulay, and complete local domain of…
Let X be a smooth projective variety of dimension n in P^r. We study the fibers of a general linear projection pi: X --> P^{n+c}, with c > 0. When n is small it is classical that the degree of any fiber is bounded by n/c+1, but this fails…
We use the theory of foliations to study the relative canonical divisor of a normalized inseparable base-change. Our main technical theorem states that it is linearly equivalent to a divisor with positive integer coefficients divisible by…
Real blow-up, including inhomogeneous versions, of boundary faces of a manifold (with corners) is an important tool for resolving singularities, degeneracies and competing notions of homogeneity. These constructions are shown to be…
Given an elliptic fibration $f \colon X \to S$ over the spectrum of a complete discrete valuation ring with algebraically closed residue field, we use a Hochschild--Serre spectral sequence to express the torsion in $R^1f_\ast \mathscr{O}_X$…
We prove several new results about the topology of fibers of Gelfand--Zeitlin systems on unitary and orthogonal coadjoint orbits, at the same time finding a unifying framework recovering and shedding light on essentially all known results.…
Using the homogeneous coordinate ring construction of a toric variety IP defined by a complete simplicial fan and the methods of local cohomology theory we develop a framework for the calculation of cohomology groups H^{*}(IP, O(p)) of…
We establish a structure theorem for the connected automorphism groups of smooth complete toroidal horospherical varieties, that is, toric fibrations over rational homogeneous spaces. The key ingredient is a characterization of the Demazure…
We study the analogue of tautological rings of fibre bundles in the context of fibrations with Poincar\' e fibre, i.e. the ring obtained by fibre integrating powers of the fibrewise Euler class. We discuss how to compute the Euler ring with…
Let X \subset Proj(V) be a projective spherical G-variety, where V is a finite dimensional G-module and G = SP(2n, C). In this paper, we show that X can be deformed, by a flat deformation, to the toric variety corresponding to a convex…
Given a normal surface singularity $(X, Q)$ and a birational morphism to a non- singular surface $\pi : X \to S$, we investigate the local geometry of the exceptional divisor $L$ of $\pi$. We prove that the dimension of the tangent space to…
We extend the usual projective Abel-Radon transform to the larger context of a smooth complete toric variety X. We define and study toric concavity attached to an algebraic splitting vector bundle on X and we prove a toric version of the…
In this article, we discuss the semicontinuity problem of certain properties on fibers for a morphism of schemes. One aspect of this problem is local. Namely, we consider properties of schemes at the level of local rings, in which the main…
We prove a generic Torelli theorem for Jacobian elliptic surfaces, provided that the geometric genus is large compared to the irregularity. The result is effective to the extent that defining equations for the base curve are recovered from…
The decomposition theorem for smooth projective morphisms $\pi:\mathcal{X}\rightarrow B$ says that $R\pi_*\mathbb{Q}$ decomposes as $\oplus R^i\pi_*\mathbb{Q}[-i]$. We describe simple examples where it is not possible to have such a…
We study residues on a complete toric variety X, which are defined in terms of the homogeneous coordinate ring of X. We first prove a global transformation law for toric residues. When the fan of the toric variety has a simplicial cone of…
In this paper we investigate the relation between the finite generation of the Cox ring R(X) of a smooth projective surface X and its anticanonical Iitaka dimension k(-K_X).
Let $S$ be a rational surface with $\dim|-K_S|\ge 1$ and let $\pi: X\rightarrow S$ be a ramified cyclic covering from a nonruled smooth surface $X$. We show that for any integer $k\ge 3$ and ample divisor $A$ on $S$, the adjoint divisor…
We present a novel approach for deriving KAM-type linearization theorems directly -- and almost immediately -- from the existence of the stable foliation for a renormalization operator. We give a few illustrations in dynamics in one and…
