The aim of this note is to study local and global Seshadri constants for a family of smooth surfaces with prescribed polarization. We shall first observe that given $\alpha$ being smaller than the square root of the degree of polarization,…

We study the Seshadri constants of cyclic coverings of smooth surfaces. The existence of an automorphism on these surfaces can be used to produce Seshadri exceptional curves. We give a bound for multiple Seshadri constants on cyclic…

We explore Seshadri constants associated to weighted blow-ups of complex projective varieties and demonstrate how to use this notion to construct symplectic embeddings of ellipsoids. We illustrate the utility of this point of view by…

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety equipped with an action of a semisimple algebraic group $G$, and assume that $X$ contains a unique closed orbit. Let $B$ be a Borel subgroup of $G$ and let $E$ be a $B$-equivariant vector bundle on…

We consider flags $E_\bullet=\{X\supset E\supset \{q\}\}$, where $E$ is an exceptional divisor defining a non-positive at infinity divisorial valuation $\nu_E$ of a Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb{F}_\delta$ and $X$ the surface given by…

A Bott tower of height $r$ is a sequence of projective bundles $$X_r \overset{{\pi_r}}\longrightarrow X_{r-1} \overset{\pi_{r-1}}\longrightarrow \cdots \overset{\pi_2}\longrightarrow X_1=\mathbb P^1 \overset{\pi_1} \longrightarrow…

We introduce higher-order variants of the Frobenius-Seshadri constant due to Musta\c{t}\u{a} and Schwede, which are defined for ample line bundles in positive characteristic. These constants are used to show that Demailly's criterion for…

We study asymptotic invariants of linear series on surfaces with the help of Newton-Okounkov polygons. Our primary aim is to understand local positivity of line bundles in terms of convex geometry. We work out characterizations of ample and…

Starting from the data of a big line bundle $L$ on a projective manifold $X$ with a choice of $N\geq 1$ different points on $X$ we provide a new construction of $N$ Okounkov bodies which encodes important geometric features of ($L\to…

It is well known that multi-point Seshadri constants for a small number $s$ of points in the projective plane are submaximal. It is predicted by the Nagata conjecture that their values are maximal for $s\geq 9$ points. Tackling the problem…

We introduce the Seshadri region of a subvariety, a convex region packaging the classical Seshadri constants with respect to every line bundle simultaneously. We develop the theory of Seshadri regions as a measure of positivity along…

Seshadri constants on abelian surfaces are fully understood in the case of Picard number one. Little is known so far for simple abelian surfaces of higher Picard number. In this paper we investigate principally polarized abelian surfaces…

In this paper we consider the question of when Seshadri constants on abelian surfaces are integers. Our first result concerns self-products $E\times E$ of elliptic curves: If $E$ has complex multiplication in $\Z[i]$ or in…

Starting with the pioneering work of Ein and Lazarsfeld restrictions on values of Seshadri constants on algebraic surfaces have been studied by many authors. In the present note we show how approximation involving continued fractions…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective complex variety of maximal Albanese dimension, and let $L \to X$ be a big line bundle. We prove that the moving Seshadri constants of the pull-backs of $L$ to suitable finite abelian \'etale covers of $X$ are…

In 1988, Fujita conjectured that there is an effective and uniform way to turn an ample line bundle on a smooth projective variety into a globally generated or very ample line bundle. We study Fujita's conjecture using Seshadri constants,…

We compute lower bounds for Kazhdan constants of Chevalley groups over the integers, endowed with the standard Steinberg generators. For types other than $\mathtt{A}_{n}$, these are the first explicit asymptotically sharp such bounds. The…

Let X_g=C^{(2)}_g be the second symmetric product of a very general curve of genus g. We reduce the problem of describing the ample cone on X_g to a problem involving the Seshadri constant of a point on X_{g-1}. Using this we recover a…

We give an asymptotic formula for the number of $\mathbb{F}_{q}$-rational points over a fixed determinant moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank $r$ and degree $d$ over a smooth, projective curve $X$ of genus $g \geq 2$ defined over…

For any non-negative integer $k$ the $k$-th osculating dimension at a given point $x$ of a variety $X$ embedded in projective space gives a measure of the local positivity of order $k$ at that point. In this paper we show that a smooth…
