We show that the spectral radius for the action of a self map $f$ of a smooth projective variety (over an arbitrary base field) on its $\ell$-adic cohomology is achieved on the $f^*$-stable sub-algebra generated by any ample class. This…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $ \overline{\mathbb Q}$, and $f:X -rightarrow X$ be a dominant rational map. Let $\delta_{f}$ be the first dynamical degree of $f$ and $h_{X}:X( \overline{\mathbb Q})\to [1,\infty)$ be a Weil…

Using log canonical thresholds and basis divisors Fujita--Odaka introduced purely algebro-geometric invariants $\delta_m$ whose limit in $m$ is now known to characterize uniform K-stability on a Fano variety. As shown by Blum-Jonsson this…

An endomorphism $f$ of a projective variety X is polarized (resp. quasi-polarized) if $f^*H$ is linearly equivalent to $qH$ for some ample (resp. nef and big) Cartier divisor $H$ and integer $q > 1$. First, we use cone analysis to show that…

We introduce a notion of volume of a normal isolated singularity that generalizes Wahl's characteristic number of surface singularities to arbitrary dimensions. We prove a basic monotonicity property of this volume under finite morphisms.…

Let $X$ be a compact strictly pseudoconvex embeddable Cauchy-Riemann manifold and let $T_P$ be the Toeplitz operator on $X$ associated with a first-order pseudodifferential operator $P$. In our previous work we established the asymptotic…

Suppose that $X$ is a projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Further suppose that $L$ is an ample (or more generally in some sense positive) divisor. We study a natural linear system in $|K_X + L|$.…

Consider sample covariance matrices of the form $Q:=\Sigma^{1/2} X X^\top \Sigma^{1/2}$, where $X=(x_{ij})$ is an $n\times N$ random matrix whose entries are independent random variables with mean zero and variance $N^{-1}$, and $\Sigma$ is…

Consider a dominant rational self-map $f$ on a smooth projective variety $X$ defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$. We prove that \begin{align} \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{h_{Y}(f^{n}(x))}{h_{H}(f^{n}(x)) } = 0, \end{align} where $h_{Y}$ is a…

We study the algebraic rank of a divisor on a graph, an invariant defined using divisors on algebraic curves dual to the graph. We prove it satisfies the Riemann-Roch formula, a specialization property, and the Clifford inequality. We prove…

Assuming Vojta's conjecture, we give a sufficient condition for the limit \[ \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{h_{Y}(f^{n}(x))}{h_{H}(f^{n}(x))} \] is equal to zero, where $f \colon X \longrightarrow X$ is a surjective self-morphism on a smooth…

The cones of divisors and curves defined by various positivity conditions on a smooth projective variety have been the subject of a great deal of work in algebraic geometry, and by now they are quite well understood. However the analogous…

We study surjective (not necessarily regular) rational endomorphisms $f$ of smooth del Pezzo surfaces $X$. We prove that under certain natural non\,-\,degeneracy condition $f$ can have degree bigger than $1$ only when $(-K_X^2) > 5$. Some…

We prove the dynamical Mordell-Lang conjecture for product of endomorphisms of an affine curve and a projective curve over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$.

There are three aims of this note. The first one is to report some advances around the dynamical Mordell-Lang (=DML) conjecture. Second, we generalize some known results. For example, the Dynamical Mordell-lang conjecture was known for…

Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group acting on a smooth complete complex algebraic variety X. We assume that X under the action of G is a regular embedding, a condition satisfied in particular by smooth toric varieties and…

Let X be a normal variety such that $K_X$ is Q-Cartier, and let $f: X \rightarrow X$ be a finite surjective morphism of degree at least two. We establish a close relation between the irreducible components of the locus of singularities that…

We study the complex-analytic geometry of semi-positive holomorphic line bundles on compact K\"ahler manifolds. In one of our main results, for a $\mathbb{Q}$-effective line bundle satisfying a natural torsion-type assumption, we show the…

Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective variety of dimension $d$. Under some assumption on the cohomology of $X$, we construct mutually orthogonal idempotents in $CH_d(X \times X) \otimes \Q$ whose action on algebraically trivial cycles…

Germs of rational functions~$h$ on points $p$ of smooth varieties~$S$ define germs of rational maps to the projective line. Assume that $p$ is in the indeterminacy locus of $h$. If $\pi:\hat{S}\to S$ is a birational map which is an…
