We prove Demailly's Conjecture concerning the lower bound for the Waldschmidt constant in terms of the initial degree of the second symbolic powers for any set of generic points or very general points in $\mathbb{P}^N$. We also discuss the…
In this paper, we investigate containment statements between symbolic and ordinary powers and bounds on the Waldschmidt constant of defining ideals of points in projective spaces. We establish the stable Harbourne conjecture for the…
In the present note we prove a conjecture of Demailly for finite sets of sufficiently many very general points in projective spaces. This gives a lower bound on Waldschmidt constants of such sets. Waldschmidt constants are asymptotic…
In our previous work with Grifo and H\`a, we showed the stable Harbourne-Huneke containment and Chudnovsky's conjecture for the defining ideal of sufficiently many general points in $\mathbb{P}^N$. In this paper, we establish the…
We prove that at least $\left( \dfrac{(1+\epsilon)2m}{N-1}+1+\epsilon \right)^N$, where $0\leqslant \epsilon <1$, many general points, satisfy Demailly's conjecture. Previously, it was known to be true for at least $(2m+2)^N$ many general…
Let $Z$ be a finite set of $s$ points in the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ over an algebraically closed field $F$. For each positive integer $m$, let $\alpha(mZ)$ denote the smallest degree of nonzero homogeneous polynomials in…
We introduce the class of sparse symmetric shifted monomial ideals. These ideals have linear quotients and their Betti numbers are computed. Using this, we prove that the symbolic powers of the generalized star configuration ideal are…
Guided by evidence coming from a few key examples and attempting to unify previous work of Chudnovsky, Esnault-Viehweg, Eisenbud-Mazur, Ein-Lazarsfeld-Smith, Hochster-Huneke and Bocci-Harbourne, Harbourne and Huneke recently formulated a…
In this note we show that Harbourne's conjecture is true for symbolic powers of ideals of points, we check that the stable version of this conjecture is valid for ideals of very general points (resp. generic points) in $\mathbb P_{\mathbb…
In this note we introduce a Waldschmidt decomposition of divisors which might be viewed as a generalization of Zariski decomposition based on the effectivity rather than the nefness of divisors. As an immediate application we prove a…
We show that the Conjecture of Harbourne and Huneke, $I^{(Nr-(N-1))} \subset M^{(r-1)(N-1)}I^{r}$ holds for ideals of generic (simple) points in $\PP^3$. As a result, for such ideals we prove the following bounds, which can be recognized as…
Given a homogeneous ideal $I \subseteq k[x_0,\dots,x_n]$, the Containment problem studies the relation between symbolic and regular powers of $I$, that is, it asks for which pair $m, r \in \mathbb{N}$, $I^{(m)} \subseteq I^r$ holds. In the…
In this note we address the relation between symbolic and ordinary powers of the ideal of a reduced set or points in projective space: the so-called containment problem. In particular, we obtain sharp lower bounds on the Waldschmidt…
In the paper we prove the containment $I^{(nm)}\subset M^{(n-1)m}I^m$, for a radical ideal $I$ of $s$ general points in $\mathbb{P}^n$, where $s\geq 2^n$. As a corollary we get that the Chudnovsky Conjecture holds for a very general set of…
We explicitly compute the least degree of generators of all symbolic powers of the defining ideal of Fermat-like configuration of lines in $\mathbb{P}^3_\mathbb{C}$, except for the second symbolic powers, where we provide bounds for them.…
Let $n \ge 2$ be an integer and consider the defining ideal of the Fermat configuration of points in $\mathbb{P}^2$: $I_n=(x(y^n-z^n),y(z^n-x^n),z(x^n-y^n)) \subset R=\mathbb{C}[x,y,z]$. In this paper, we compute explicitly the least degree…
The symbolic powers $I^{(n)}$ of a radical ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring consist of the functions that vanish up to order $n$ in the variety defined by $I$. These do not necessarily coincide with the ordinary algebraic powers $I^n$, but it…
The containment problem for symbolic and ordinary powers of ideals asks for what values of $a$ and $b$ we have $I^{(a)} \subseteq I^b$. Over a regular ring, a result by Ein-Lazarsfeld-Smith, Hochster-Huneke, and Ma-Schwede partially answers…
In this note, we demonstrate the convergence of the Demailly approximation of a general (weakly) upper semi-continuous weight.
We prove a long-standing conjecture of Chudnovsky for very general and generic points in $\mathbb{P}_k^N$, where $k$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and for any finite set of points lying on a quadric, without any…
