We prove that for all nonsingular projective 3-folds of general type with third plurigenus $P_3 \geq 2$, the pluricanonical map $\varphi_m$ is birational onto its image for all $m \geq 14$, which is optimal.
A $\mathbf{Q}$-Cartier divisor $D$ on a projective variety $M$ is {\it almost nup}, if $(D , C) > 0$ for every very general curve $C$ on $M$. An algebraic variety $X$ is of {\it almost general type}, if there exists a projective variety $M$…
We establish the Hodge conjecture for the top dimensional cohomology group with integer coefficients of any $q$-complete complex manifold $X$ with $q<\dim X$. This holds in particular for the complement $X=\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^n\setminus A$…
Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective rationally connected threefold with $-K_X$ nef and not semi-ample. In our previous work, we classified all such threefolds when $|{-}K_X|$ has no fixed divisor. In this paper, we continue our…
We consider the moduli space $A_{pol}(n)$ of (non-principally) polarised abelian varieties of genus $g\geq3$ with coprime polarisation and full level-$n$ structure. Based upon the analysis of the Tits building in math/0405321, we give an…
In this paper, we prove that the statement: ``The (Generalized) Hodge Conjecture holds for codimension-two cycles on a smooth projective variety $X$" is a birationally invariant statement, that is, if the statement is true for $X$, it is…
In this paper, we prove a Voronoi summation formula for the shifted 3-fold divisor function twisted by additive characters. As the main tool, we provide the functional equation for the shifted $GL(3)$ Estermann function.
Let $V$ be a complex nonsingular projective 3-fold of general type with $\chi(\omega_V)\geq 0$ (resp. $>0$). We prove that the m-canonical map $\Phi_{|mK_V|}$ is birational onto its image for all $m\ge 14$ (resp. $\geq 8$). Known examples…
We study the projective normality of a linearly normal special scroll R of degree d and speciality i over a smooth curve X of genus g. We relate it with the Clifford index of the base curve X. If d>=4g-2i-Cliff(X)+1, i>=3 and R is smooth,…
The Hilbert scheme of projective 3-folds of codimension 3 or more that are linear scrolls over the projective plane or over a smooth quadric surface or that are quadric or cubic fibrations over the projective line is studied. All known such…
Let $i\colon X\to \Pk^N$ be a projective manifold of dimension $n$ embedded in projective space $\Pk^N$, and let $L$ be the pull-back to $X$ of the line bundle $\Ok_{\Pk^N}(1)$. We construct global explicit Koppelman formulas on $X$ for…
For a normal projective variety $X$, the $\bf Q$-factoriality defect $\sigma(X)$ is defined to be the rank of the quotient of the group of Weil divisors by the subgroup of Cartier ones. We prove a slight improvement of a topological formula…
We mainly introduce some weak versions of the $M_{1}$-spaces, and study some properties about these spaces. The mainly results are that: (1) If $X$ is a compact scattered space and $i(X)\leq 3$, then $X$ is an $s$-$m_{1}$-space; (2) If $X$…
A classical result asserts that the complex projective plane modulo complex conjugation is the 4-dimensional sphere. We generalize this result in two directions by considering the projective planes over the normed real division algebras and…
In this paper, we will prove subadditivity of Kodaira dimensions for a fibration with possibly singular geometric generic fiber, under certain nefness and relative semi-ampleness conditions. As an application, for a fibration $f: X \to Y$…
We formulate Vojta's conjecture for smooth weighted projective varieties, weighted multiplier ideal sheaves, and weighted log pairs and prove that all three versions of the conjecture are equivalent. In the process, we introduce generalized…
We prove that for every reductive algebraic group $H$ with centre of positive dimension and every integer $K$ there is a smooth and projective variety $X$ and an algebraic $H$-torsor $P \to X$ such that the classifying map $X \to \Bclass H$…
Let $X$ be a normal projective variety with only klt singularities, and $L_X$ a strictly nef $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor on $X$. In this paper, we study the singular version of Serrano's conjecture, i.e., the ampleness of $K_X+t L_X$ for…
We prove the integral Hodge conjecture for all 3-folds X of Kodaira dimension zero with H^0(X, K_X) not zero. This generalizes earlier results of Voisin and Grabowski. The assumption is sharp, in view of counterexamples by Benoist and…
We provide classification results for translation generalized quadrangles of order less or equal to $64$, and hence, for all incidence geometries related to them. The results consist of the classification of all pseudo-ovals in…
