We compute the class groups of very general normal surfaces in complex projective three-space containing an arbitrary base locus $Z$, thereby extending the classic Noether-Lefschetz theorem (the case when $Z$ is empty). Our method is an…
We study the problem of whether an arbitrary codimension three graded artinian Gorenstein algebra has the Weak Lefschetz Property. We reduce this problem to checking whether it holds for all compressed Gorenstein algebras of odd socle…
We consider cohomology of small categories with coefficients in a natural system in the sense of Baues and Wirsching. For any funtor L: K -> CAT, we construct a spectral sequence abutting to the cohomology of the Grothendieck construction…
We prove Barth-type connectedness results for low-codimension smooth subvarieties with good numerical properties inside certain "easy" ambient spaces (such as homogeneous varieties, or spherical varieties). The argument employs some basics…
We prove a descent result for affine/projective varieties defined over an algebraically closed field. The idea is to work with the reduced Groebner basis of the ideal where the variety vanishes and study it's behaviour under group action…
This note addresses the motivic nature of some classical cohomological results due to Lefschetz, namely the primitive decomposition (for the cohomology of smooth projective varieties), and, secondly, the splitting of the cohomology of a…
We study the properties of the multiplicative structure on valuations on convex sets. We prove a new version of the hard Lefschetz theorem for even translation invariant continuous valuations, and discuss related problems of integral…
We show that the Grothendieck-Chow motive of a smooth hyperplane section $Y$ of an inner twisted form $X$ of a Milnor hypersurface splits as a direct sum of shifted copies of the motive of the Severi-Brauer variety of the associated cyclic…
We prove a Lefschetz (1,1)-Theorem for proper seminormal varieties over the complex numbers. The proof is a non-trivial geometric argument applied to the isogeny class of the Lefschetz 1-motive associated to the mixed Hodge structure on…
We continue our study of the Noether-Lefschetz loci in toric varieties and investigate deformation of pairs (V,X) where V is a complete intersection subvariety and X a quasi-smooth hypersurface in a odd dimensional simplicial projective…
Motivated by the relationship between numerical Grothendieck groups induced by the embedding of a smooth anticanonical elliptic curve into a del Pezzo surface, we define the notion of a quasi del Pezzo homomorphism between pseudolattices…
In this paper we look at Grothendieck's work on classifying holomorphic bundles over the complex projective line. The paper is divided into $4$ parts. The first and second part we build up the necessary background to talk about vector…
We know that semi-regular sub-varieties satisfy the variational Hodge conjecture i.e., given a family of smooth projective varieties $\pi:\mathcal{X} \to B$, a special fiber $\mathcal{X}_o$ and a semi-regular subvariety $Z \subset…
We use the "closed point sieve" to prove a variant of a Bertini theorem over finite fields. Specifically, given a smooth quasi-projective subscheme X of P^n of dimension m over F_q, and a closed subscheme Z in P^n such that Z intersect X is…
We present a simple proof of a precise version of the localization theorem in equivariant cohomology. As an application, we describe the cohomology algebra of any compact symplectic variety with a multiplicity-free action of a compact Lie…
Waldhausen's algebraic K-theory machinery is applied to motivic homotopy theory, producing an interesting motivic homotopy type. Over a field F of characteristic zero, its path components receive a surjective ring homomorphism from the…
The idea of the work is to find an invariant way to pass from deformation theory to cohomology, which does not use any explicit cocycles. The appropriate cohomology theory is based on considering sheaves on a certain site. An advantage of…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, $W$ the ring of Witt vectors over $k$ and ${R}$ the integral closure of $W$ in the algebraic closure ${\bar{K}}$ of $K:=Frac(W)$; let moreover $X$ be a smooth, connected and…
We use Morse theory to prove that the Lefschetz Hyperplane Theorem holds for compact smooth Deligne-Mumford stacks over the site of complex manifolds. For $Z \subset X$ a hyperplane section, $X$ can be obtained from $Z$ by a sequence of…
We extend results of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene and Raskind on the $\mathcal{K}_2$-cohomology of smooth projective varieties over a separably closed field $k$ to the \'etale motivic cohomology of smooth, not necessarily projective, varieties over…
