We associate to each toric vector bundle on a toric variety X(Delta) a "branched cover" of the fan Delta together with a piecewise-linear function on the branched cover. This construction generalizes the usual correspondence between toric…
A classical tensegrity model consists of an embedded graph in a vector space with rigid bars representing edges, and an assignment of a stress to every edge such that at every vertex of the graph the stresses sum up to zero. The tensegrity…
Let X be a smooth algebraic variety over a field of characteristic 0. We introduce the notion of twisted associative (resp. Poisson) deformation of the structure sheaf O_X. These are stack-like versions of usual deformations. We prove that…
We develop a valuation-theoretic framework for studying tangent cones of torsion-free sheaves on algebraic varieties. To analyze these objects, we introduce a slope stability theory, including the Harder-Narasimhan filtrations, for finitely…
We prove a new patchworking theorem for singular algebraic curves, which states the following. Given a complex toric threefold $Y$ which fibers over ${\mathbb C}$ with a reduced reducible zero fiber $Y_0$ and other fibers $Y_t$ smooth, and…
We generalize Koll\'ar's conjecture (including torsion freeness, injectivity theorem, vanishing theorem and decomposition theorem) to Saito's $S$-sheaves twisted by a $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor. This gives a uniform treatment for various kinds of…
Resolving finite quotient singularities is a classical problem in algebraic geometry. Traditional methods of Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) translate the singularity into a quiver representation space and take the GIT quotient with…
We give a generalization of Gabriel's Theorem on coherent sheaves to the case of coherent twisted sheaves on a smooth variety X over a field k. We show that the category Coh(X,\alpha) determines the scheme structure of X for \alpha in the…
Yannakakis' theorem relating the extension complexity of a polytope to the size of a nonnegative factorization of its slack matrix is a seminal result in the study of lifts of convex sets. Inspired by this result and the importance of lifts…
We show that for any two von Neumann algebras $M$ and $N$, the space of non-unital normal homomorphisms $N\to M$ with finite support, modulo conjugation by unitaries in $M$, is Dedekind complete with respect to the partial order coming from…
We give a description of the value of a finitary localizing invariant, such as algebraic $K$-theory, on the category of sheaves on a locally coherent space $X$. This in particular includes all spaces that arise as spectra of commutative…
Inspired by Mukai's work on K3 surfaces, we introduce and study a notion of semi-rigidity for stable sheaves on smooth polarised varieties, designed to capture the existence of stable deformations of direct sums. We show that semi-rigidity…
In this paper we expand the theory of weighted sheaves over posets, and use it to study the local homology of Artin groups. First, we use such theory to relate the homology of classical braid groups with the homology of certain independence…
We use coverings by smooth projective varieties then apply nonabelian Hodge techniques to study the topology of proper Deligne-Mumford stacks as well as more general simplicial varieties.
Let $X:=\mathbb{A}^{n}_{R}$ be the $n$-dimensional affine space over a discrete valuation ring $R$ with fraction field $K$. We prove that any pointed torsor $Y$ over $\mathbb{A}^{n}_{K}$ under the action of an affine finite type group…
We show a stability-type theorem for foliations on projective spaces which arise as pullbacks of foliations with a split tangent sheaf on weighted projective spaces. As a consequence, we will be able to construct many irreducible components…
The goal of this paper is to construct a category of motivic "sheaves" on an algebraic variety defined over a subfield of C, using Nori's method. This categoryis abelian and it possesses faithful exact realization functors to the…
We perform a study of the moduli space of framed torsion-free sheaves on Hirzebruch surfaces by using localization techniques. We discuss some general properties of this moduli space by studying it in the framework of Huybrechts-Lehn theory…
This is an expended and revised version of the preprint "Schematization of homotopy types". The purpose of this work is to introduce a notion of \emph{affine stacks}, which is a homotopy version of the notion of affine schemes, and to give…
We develop a new form of patching that is both far-reaching and more elementary than the previous versions that have been used in inverse Galois theory for function fields of curves. A key point of our approach is to work with fields and…
