In this paper, we discuss a generalization of log canonical singularities in the non-$\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein setting. We prove that if a normal complex projective variety has a non-invertible polarized endomorphism, then it has log…
We prove that the moduli b-divisor of an lc-trivial fibration from a log canonical pair is log abundant. The result follows from a theorem on the restriction of the moduli b-divisor, based on a theory of lc-trivial morphisms, which allows…
Based on a recent extension theorem for reflexive differential forms, that is, regular differential forms defined on the smooth locus of a possibly singular variety, we study the geometry and cohomology of sheaves of reflexive…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a characteristic-zero lifting of an object in positive characteristic by means of ``skeletons''. Using this notion, we relate invariants of singularities in positive characteristic to their…
We define a class of singularity on arbitrary pairs of a normal variety and an effective $\mathbb{R}$-divisor on it, which we call pseudo-lc in this paper. This is a generalization of the usual lc singularity of pairs and log canonical…
We show that the zero locus of a normal function on a smooth complex algebraic variety S is algebraic provided that the normal function extends to a admissible normal function on a smooth compactification of S with torsion singularity. This…
We generalize Miyanishi's theory of almost minimal models of log smooth surfaces with reduced boundary to the case of arbitrary log surfaces defined over an algebraically closed field. Given an MMP run of a log surface $(X,D)$ we define and…
We show that the conditions imposed on a second order linear differential equation with rational coefficients on the complex line by requiring it to have regular singularities with fixed exponents at the points of a finite set $P$ and…
We introduce linearly decomposable (LD) generalized pairs, which serve as a workable substitute for rational decompositions in the non-NQC setting. Using LD generalized pairs, together with a refinement of special termination and…
In this paper, we prove that the zero-locus of any global holomorphic log-one-form on a projective log-smooth pair $\left(X,D\right)$ of log-general type must be non-empty. Applying this result, we give an answer to the algebraic…
We establish normal forms for conformal vector fields on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds in the neighborhood of a singularity. For real-analytic Lorentzian manifolds, we show that the vector field is analytically linearizable or the manifold is…
Over $\C$, Henry Laufer classified all taut surface singularities. We adapt and extent his transcendental methods to positive characteristic. With this we show that if a normal surface singularity is taut over $\C$, then the normal surface…
We prove stability of logarithmic tangent sheaves of singular hypersurfaces D of the projective space with constraints on the dimension and degree of the singularities of D. As main application, we prove that determinants and symmetric…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p >0. Let $m \in \N$, (m,p)=1. We study $\fp$-vector spaces of logarithmic differential forms on the projective line such that each non zero form has a unique zero at $\infty$ of…
Let $X$ and $Y$ be proper birational varieties, say with only rational double points over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic. If $X$ lifts to $W_n(k)$, is it true that $Y$ has the same lifting property? This is true for smooth…
We prove that the morphism that maps a rational ruled surface to its singular locus is genericaly injective modulo isomophism and duality. We also calculate the dimension and the degre of its image.
We study the universal cover of the complex one-dimensional torus as a model-theoretic structure in a natural language. We consider also abstract covers of one-dimensional tori over algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero. The…
We study the failure of the Lipman-Zariski conjecture in positive characteristic. For rational double points, the conjecture holds true except for a short finite list of exceptions. For log canonical surface singularities, the conjecture…
We present a new relation between an invariant of singularities in characteristic zero (the log canonical threshold) and an invariant of singularities defined via the Frobenius morphism in positive characteristic (the F-pure threshold). We…
We prove that one can run the log minimal model program for log canonical $3$-fold pairs in characteristic $p>5$. In particular we prove the Cone Theorem, Contraction Theorem, the existence of flips and the existence of log minimal models…
