We study the extension of a hyperelliptic K3 surface to a Fano 6-fold. This determines a family of surfaces of general type with p_g=1, K^2=2 and hyperelliptic canonical curve, where each surface is a weighted complete intersection inside a…
In his previous papers (Math. Res. Letters 7 (2000), 123--13; Math. Res. Letters 8 (2001), 429--435; Moscow Math. J. 2 (2002), issue 2, 403-431) the author proved that in characteristic $\ne 2$ the jacobian $J(C)$ of a hyperelliptic curve…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $X/k$ be a projective variety. The conjectures of Demailly--Green--Griffiths--Lang posit that every integral subvariety of $X$ is of general type if and only if $X$ is…
This work is devoted to the study of deformations of hyperbolic cone structures under the assumption that the lengths of the singularity remain uniformly bounded over the deformation. Given a sequence $(M_{i}%, p_{i}) $ of pointed…
Given a complex analytic family of complex manifolds, we consider canonical Aeppli deformations of $(p,q)$-forms and study its relations to the varying of dimension of the deformed Aeppli cohomology $\dim H^{\bullet,\bullet}_{A\phi(t)}(X)$.…
Let W be a projective variety of dimension n+1, L a free line bundle on W, X in $H^0(L^d)$ a hypersurface of degree d which is generic among those given by sums of monomials from $L$, and let $f : Y \to X$ be a generically finite map from a…
In this paper we study the gonality of the normalizations of curves in the linear system $|H|$ of a general primitively polarized $K3$ surface $(S,H)$ of genus $p$. We prove two main results. First we give a necessary condition on $p, g, k$…
We give sharp sectional curvature estimates for complete immersed cylindrically bounded $m$-submanifolds $\phi:M\to N\times\mathbb{R}^{\ell}$, $n+\ell\leq 2m-1$ provided that either $\phi$ is proper with the second fundamental form with…
We propose in this article the study of the deformations of a Calabi-Yau type foliations $\mathcal{F}$. For three different types of deformations (unfoldings, holomorphic, transversally holomorphic) there exist Kuranishi spaces…
Severi varieties and Brill-Noether theory of curves on K3 surfaces are well understood. Yet, quite little is known for curves on abelian surfaces. Given a general abelian surface $S$ with polarization $L$ of type $(1,n)$, we prove…
We address the following question: Given a polarized toric surface (S,L), and a general integral curve C of geometric genus g in the linear system |L|, do there exist degenerations of C in |L| to general integral curves of smaller geometric…
We give an elementary construction of the tangent-obstruction theory of the deformations of the pair $(X,L)$ with $X$ a reduced local complete intersection scheme and $L$ a line bundle on $X$. This generalizes the classical deformation…
Birational Calabi-Yau threefolds in the same deformation family provide a `weak' counterexample to the global Torelli problem, as long as they are not isomorphic. In this paper, it is shown that deformations of certain desingularized…
Clifford algebras are naturally associated with quadratic forms. These algebras are Z_2-graded by construction. However, only a Z_n-gradation induced by a choice of a basis, or even better, by a Chevalley vector space isomorphism Cl(V) <->…
In this paper we study flat deformations of real subschemes of $\mathbb{P}^n$, hyperbolic with respect to a fixed linear subspace, i.e. admitting a finite surjective and real fibered linear projection. We show that the subset of the…
Let X be the blow-up of a smooth projective 4-fold Y along a smooth curve C and let E be the exceptional divisor. Assume that X is a Fano manifold and has an elementary extremal contraction $\phi: X \to Z$ of (3,1)-type such that E is…

This paper is devoted to the study of various aspects of deformations of log pairs, especially in connection to questions related to the invariance of singularities and log plurigenera. In particular, using recent results from the minimal…
