Let $X$ be a smooth threefold over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that an arbitrary flop of $X$ is smooth. To this end, we study Gorenstein curves of genus one and two-dimensional elliptic singularities…

Every closed orientable surface S has the following property: any two connected covers of S of the same degree are homeomorphic (as spaces). In this, paper we give a complete classification of compact 3-manifolds with empty or toroidal…

We present a smooth, complete toric threefold with no nontrivial nef line bundles. This is a counterexample to a recent conjecture of Fujino.

In this paper, we study homogeneous convex foliations on the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. A foliation is called convex if all of its leaves, except straight lines, have no inflection points, and such foliations form a Zariski…

We prove that the universal covering space of a complex projective manifold is holomorphically convex provided its fundamental group is linear.

B. Poonen recently produced smooth threefolds over a number field which do not have a rational point but have no Brauer-Manin obstruction even after descent to a finite 'etale cover. In this note I show that the varieties he produces have…

We prove that if in a (smooth) holomorphic family of compact complex manifolds all the fibres, except one, are projective, then the remaining (limit) fibre must be Moishezon. In an earlier work, we proved this result under the extra…

For every complete toric variety, there exists a projective toric variety which is isomorphic to it in codimension one. In this paper, we show that every smooth non-projective complete toric threefold of Picard number at most five becomes…

An interesting question in symplectic topology, which was posed by C. H. Taubes, concerns the topology of closed (i.e. compact and without boundary) connected oriented three dimensional manifolds whose product with a circle admits a…

Consider the smooth quadric Q_6 in P^7. The middle homology group H_6(Q_6,Z) is two-dimensional with a basis given by two classes of linear subspaces. We classify all threefolds of bidegree (1,p) inside Q_6.

We prove that the product of an Enriques surface and a very general curve of genus at least 1 does not satisfy the integral Hodge conjecture for 1-cycles. This provides the first examples of smooth projective complex threefolds of Kodaira…

In this paper we show that given any 3-manifold N and any non-fibered class in H^1(N;Z) there exists a representation such that the corresponding twisted Alexander polynomial is zero. This is obtained by extending earlier work of the…

We provide a stable rationality construction for some smooth complex Gushel-Mukai varieties of dimension 6. As a consequence, we compute the integral singular cohomology of any smooth Gushel-Mukai sixfold and in particular, show that it is…

We classify the holomorphic parabolic geometries on compact complex manifolds of general type. We accomplish this by bounding the numerical dimension of any smooth projective variety in terms of geometric invariants of the flag variety…

This paper initiates a systematic study of the relation of commensurability of surface automorphisms, or equivalently, fibered commensurability of 3-manifolds fibering over the circle. We show that every hyperbolic fibered commensurability…

Given a smooth projective variety of dimension $n-1\geq 1$ defined over a perfect field $k$ that admits a non-singular hypersurface modelin $\mathbb{P}^n_{\overline{k}}$ over $\overline{k}$, a fixed algebraic closure of $k$, it does not…

We prove that for "most" closed 3-dimensional manifolds $M$, the existence of a closed non singular one-form in a given cohomology class $u\in H^1 (M,\bf R)$ is equivalent to the fact that every twisted Alexander polynomial $\Delta^H(M,u)…

The endomorphism ring of the projective plane over a field F of characteristic neither two nor three is slightly more complicated in the Morel-Voevodsky motivic stable homotopy category than in Voevodsky's derived category of motives. In…

M. Kontsevich constructed universal characteristic classes of smooth bundles with fiber a framed odd-dimensional integral homology sphere. In dimension 3, they are known to give a universal finite type invariants of homology 3-spheres.…

Let X be a compact Kaehler threefold such that the base of the MRC-fibration has dimension two. We prove that X is bimeromorphic to a Mori fibre space. Together with our earlier result arXiv:1304.4013 this completes the MMP for compact…
