Let $X$ be a normal projective variety admitting a polarized endomorphism $f$, i.e., $f^*H\sim qH$ for some ample divisor $H$ and integer $q>1$. It was conjectured by Broustet and Gongyo that $X$ is of Calabi-Yau type, i.e., $(X,\Delta)$ is…

In this paper, we prove that for a fibration $f:X\to Z$ from a smooth projective 3-fold to a smooth projective curve, over an algebraically closed field $k$ with $\mathrm{char} k =p >5$, if the geometric generic fiber $X_{\overline\eta}$ is…

The main purpose of this paper is twofold. We first want to analyze in details the meaningful geometric aspect of the method introduced in the previous paper [12], concerning regularity of families of irreducible, nodal "curves" on a…

Over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from $2$ admitting an anisotropic torsion $3$-fold Pfister form, we apply a construction due to Merkurjev to produce an algebra with orthogonal involution of degree $6$ which admits proper…

We obtain a new bound on the second moment of modified shifted convolutions of the generalized 3-fold divisor function, and show that, for applications, the modified version is sufficient.

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety, $a\colon X\rightarrow A$ a morphism to an abelian variety such that $\mathrm{Pic}^0(A)$ injects into $\mathrm{Pic}^0(X)$ and let $L$ be a line bundle on $X$; denote by $h^0_a(X,L)$ the minimum…

We give a new elementary proof of the parallelizability of closed orientable 3-manifolds. We use as the main tool the fact that any such manifold admits a Heegaard splitting.

We study compact K\"ahler threefolds X with infinite fundamental group whose universal cover can be compactified. Combining techniques from $L^2$ -theory, Campana's geometric orbifolds and the minimal model program we show that this…

We consider semi-orthogonal decompositions of derived categories for 3-dimensional projective varieties in the case when the varieties have ordinary double points.

Let X be a projective irreducible symplectic manifold and L a non trivial nef divisor on X. Assume that the nef dimension of L is strictly less than the dimension of X. We prove that L is semiample

This article studies the set of R-equivalence classes of the group of proper projective similitudes of an algebra with involution of the first kind. The main results concern base fields of characteristic different from 2 over which every…

We give a criterion for certain generic nondegenerate surfaces in a fake weighted projective $3$-space to have Picard number $>1$. These algebraic surfaces are of general type. We do this by considering degenerations (along an edge),…

Let $X \subset \P^r$ be a linearly normal variety defined by a very ample line bundle $L$ on a projective variety $X$. Recently it is shown in \cite{HLMP} that there are many cases where $(X,L)$ satisfies property $\textsf{QR} (3)$ in the…

In this paper the three-dimensional divisorial contractions $f\colon Y\to (X\ni P)$ are classified provided that $\Exc f=E$ is an irreducible divisor, $f(E)=P$, the variety $Y$ has canonical singularities and $(X\ni P)$ is a toric terminal…

In this paper, we show that a general polarized abelian variety $(X,L)$ of type $(1,\dots,1,d)$ and dimension $g$ satisfies property $(N_p)$ if $ d \geq \sum_{i=0}^{g} (p+2)^i$. In particular, the case $p=0$ affirmatively solves a…

We construct a large class of projective threefolds with one node (aka non-degenerate quadratic singularity) such that their small resolutions are not projective.

We give a lower bound on the Hodge number h^{2,0}(X), where X is an irregular compact K\"ahler (or smooth complex projective) variety, in terms of the minimal rank of an element in the kernel of the wedge product map \psi_2: \Lambda^2…

We prove Grothendieck's Conjecture on Resolution of Singulari-ties for quasi-excellent schemes X of dimension three and of arbitrary characteristic. This applies in particular to X = SpecA, A a reduced complete Noetherian local ring of…

Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a smooth complex projective simple normal crossing pair of dimension $n\geq 3$ endowed with an everywhere nondegenerate logarithmic conformal tensor. If $K_X+\Delta$ is not nef, then precisely one of the following…

By improving the analysis developed in the study of $\s_k$-Yamabe problem, we prove in this paper that the De Lellis-Topping inequality is true on 3-dimensional Riemannian manifolds of nonnegative scalar curvature. More precisely, if $(M^3,…
