We study the deformations of space curves $C \subset \mathbb P^4$, assuming that they are contained in a smooth complete intersection $S_{2,2} \subset \mathbb P^4$, i.e., a smooth del Pezzo surface of degree $4$. We give sufficient…

We prove a vanishing theorem for the Hodge number h^21 of projective toric varieties provided by a certain class of polytopes. We explain how this Hodge number also gives information about the deformation theory of the toric Gorenstein…

Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold, and let $\pi: \mathcal{X} \rightarrow B$ be a small deformation of $X$, the dimensions of the Bott-Chern cohomology groups $H_{\rm BC}^{p,q}(X(t))$ and Aeppli cohomology groups $H_{\rm A}^{p,q}(X(t))$…

We study the deformation behavior of Kobayashi hyperbolic embeddings for complements of divisors in projective toric varieties. In the toric setting, entire curves in divisor complements propagate along algebraic subtori, allowing…

We develop an obstruction theory for Hirsch extensions of cbba's with twisted coefficients. This leads to a variety of applications, including a structural theorem for minimal cbba's, a construction of relative minimal models with twisted…

Let Y be a divisor on a smooth algebraic variety X. We investigate the geometry of the Jacobian scheme of Y, homological invariants derived from logarithmic differential forms along Y, and their relationship with the property that Y is a…

G.W. Mackey's celebrated obstruction theory for projective representations of locally compact groups was remarkably generalized by J. M. G. Fell and R. S. Doran to the wide area of saturated Banach *-algebraic bundles. Analogous obstruction…

We develop a formalism of cohomological descent encoding adelic points and obstructions to local-global principle on algebraic stacks. As an application, by constructing new obstructions using the formalism, we obtain some comparison…

The paper provides computations of the first non-vanishing $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy sheaves of the orthogonal Stiefel varieties which are relevant for the unstable isometry classification of quadratic forms over smooth affine schemes over…

The group action which defines the moduli problem for the deformation space of flat affine structures on the two-torus is the action of the affine group $\Aff(2)$ on $\bbR^2$. Since this action has non-compact stabiliser $\GL(2,\bbR)$, the…

In this paper we develop the obstruction theory for lifting complexes, up to quasi-isomorphism, to derived categories of flat nilpotent deformations of abelian categories. As a particular case we also obtain the corresponding obstruction…

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…

In this paper we set-up a general framework for a formal deformation theory of Dirac structures. We give a parameterization of formal deformations in terms of two-forms obeying a cubic equation. The notion of equivalence is discussed in…

We show that odd order transcendental elements of the Brauer group of a K3 surface can obstruct the Hasse principle. We exhibit a general K3 surface $Y$ of degree 2 over $\mathbb{Q}$ together with a three torsion Brauer class $\alpha$ that…

This paper studies the Hilbert scheme of a curve on a complete-intersection K-trivial threefold, in the case in which the curve is unobstructed in the ambient variety in which the threefold lives. The basic result is that the obstruction…

Let $f_1,..., f_k:X\to N$ be maps from a complex $X$ to a compact manifold $N$, $k\ge 2$. In previous works \cite{BLM,MS}, a Lefschetz type theorem was established so that the non-vanishing of a Lefschetz type coincidence class…

We give a sufficient condition for a first order infinitesimal deformation of a curve on a 3-fold to be obstructed. As application we construct generically non-reduced components of the Hilbert schemes of uniruled 3-folds and the Hom scheme…

The Hamiltonian shape invariant of a domain $X \subset \mathbb R^4$, as a subset of $\mathbb R^2$, describes the product Lagrangian tori which may be embedded in $X$. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions to determine whether or…

In the previous paper, the author showed that for a smooth family $X \to \mathbb{X} \to B$ of a homotopy $K3$ surface, the obstruction for the tangent bundle along the fibers $T_B \mathbb{X}$ to have a spin structure is canonically…

We study the local cohomology modules for the secant variety of lines of a smooth projective variety $Y$ and for higher secant varieties of smooth projective curves. We show that the local cohomological defect in the first case is related…
