Let $S$ and $T$ be reduced divisors on $\mathbb{P}^2$ which have no common components, and $\Delta=S+2\,T.$ We assume $\deg\Delta=6.$ Let $\pi:X\to\mathbb{P}^2$ be a normal triple cover with branch divisor $\Delta,$ i.e. $\pi$ is ramified…
Given an affine variety X and a finite dimensional vector space of regular functions L on X, we associate a convex body to (X, L) such that its volume is responsible for the number of solutions of a generic system of functions from L. This…
Let $Y$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $n \geq 2$ endowed with a finite morphism $\phi:Y \to \mathbb P^n$ of degree $3$, and suppose that $Y$, polarized by some ample line bundle, is a scroll over a smooth variety $X$ of…
We prove a discrete analogue to a classical isoperimetric theorem of Weil for surfaces with non-positive curvature. It is shown that hexagons in the triangular lattice have maximal volume among all sets of a given boundary in any…
For an algebraic set $X$ (union of varieties) embedded in projective space, we say that $X$ satisfies property $\textbf{N}_{d,p}$, $(d\ge 2)$ if the $i$-th syzygies of the homogeneous coordinate ring are generated by elements of degree $<…
We show that the Hodge and pole order filtrations are globally different for sufficiently general singular projective hypersurfaces in case the degree is 3 or 4 assuming the dimension of the projective space is at least 5 or 3 respectively.…
We prove that for any smooth projective $3$-fold of general type with canonical volume greater than $12^6$, the image of its bicanonical map has dimension at least $2$. We also study pluricanonical maps of $3$-folds of general type with…
We present both necessary and sufficient conditions to the convex closed shape $X$ such that the inequality $$ \frac{1}{|X|} \int_X f(x)\:dx \le \frac{1}{|\partial X|} \int_{\partial X} f(x)\:dx$$ is valid for every convex function $f…
It is proved that the projection constants of two- and three-dimensional spaces are bounded by $4/3$ and $(1+\sqrt 5)/2$, respectively. These bounds are attained precisely by the spaces whose unit balls are the regular hexagon and…
We study projective varieties $X \subset \mathbb{P}^r$ of dimension $n \geq 2$, of codimension $c \geq 3$ and of degree $d \geq c + 3$ that are of maximal sectional regularity, i.e. varieties for which the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity…
In this paper we show that a smooth toric variety $X$ of Picard number $r\leq 3$ always admits a nef primitive collection supported on a hyperplane admitting non-trivial intersection with the cone $\Nef(X)$ of numerically effective divisors…
Let $p$ be a prime number. Every two-variable polynomial $f(x_1, x_2)$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ defines an Artin--Schreier--Witt tower of surfaces whose Galois group is isomorphic to $\mathbb Z_p$. Our goal of this paper is…
The modular variety of non singular and complete hyperelliptic curves with level-two structure of genus 3 is a 5-dimensional quasi projective variety which admits several standard compactifications. The first one, X, comes from the…
In this article we show that if $(X, \Delta)$ is a log canonical compact K\"ahler $3$-fold such that $K_X+\Delta$ is nef and the numerical dimension $\nu(K_X+\Delta)\neq 2$, then $K_X+\Delta$ is semi-ample.
In this paper we improve the known bound for the $X$-rank $R_{X}(P)$ of an element $P\in {\mathbb{P}}^N$ in the case in which $X\subset {\mathbb P}^n$ is a projective variety obtained as a linear projection from a general $v$-dimensional…
We give the construction of a codimension 10 weighted homogeneous variety $w\Sigma F_4(\mu,u)$ corresponding to the exceptional Lie group $F_4$ by explicit computation of its graded ring structure. We give a formula for the Hilbert series…
Let $\mathbf G$ be the finite simple group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbf F_{11})$. It has an irreducible representation $V_{10}$ of dimension 10. In this note, we study a special trivector $\sigma\in \bigwedge^3V_{10}^\vee$ which is $\mathbf…
We prove a numerical characterization of $\mathbb{P}^n$ for varieties with at worst isolated local complete intersection quotient singularities. In dimension three, we prove such a numerical characterization of $\mathbb{P}^3$ for normal…

The $3k-4$ Theorem asserts that, if $A,\,B\subseteq \mathbb Z$ are finite, nonempty subsets with $|A|\geq |B|$ and $|A+B|=|A|+|B|+r< |A|+2|B|-3$, then there are arithmetic progressions $P_A$ and $P_B$ of common difference with $X\subseteq…
