Generalizing the continuous rank function of Barja-Pardini-Stoppino, in this paper we consider cohomological rank functions of $\mathbb Q$-twisted (complexes of) coherent sheaves on abelian varieties. They satisfy a natural transformation…

We prove the equivalence between Clifford-Severi inequalities for good classes of varieties of maximal Albanese dimension and Slope Inequalities for fibrations of such varieties over curves. This provides a big set of new Slope Inequalities…

We study the birational geometry of varieties of maximal Albanese dimension. In particular we discuss criteria for a generically finite morphism of varieties of maximal Albanese dimension to be birational; we give a new characterization of…

Let $f: X\to Y$ be a surjective morphism of smooth $n$-dimensional projective varieties, with $Y$ of maximal Albanese dimension. Hacon and Pardini studied the structure of $f$ assuming $P_m(X)=P_m(Y)$ for some $m\geq 2$. We extend their…

In this paper we construct abelian varieties of large Mordell-Weil rank over function fields. We achieve this by using a generalization of the notion of Prym variety to higher dimensions and a structure theorem for the Mordell-Weil group of…

We use tools of additive combinatorics for the study of subvarieties defined by {\it high rank} families of polynomials in high dimensional $\mathbb{F} _q$-vector spaces. In the first, analytic part of the paper we prove a number properties…

Let $f: X \to B$ be a relatively minimal fibration of maximal Albanese dimension from a variety $X$ of dimension $n \ge 2$ to a curve $B$ defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We prove that $K_{X/B}^n \ge 2n!…

We study and obtain Slope inequalities for fibred irregular varieties of non-maximal Albanese dimension. We give a comparison theorem between Clifford-Severi and Slope inequalities for this type of fibrations. We also obtain a set of Slope…

In this paper we prove, using a refinement of Terracini's Lemma, a sharp lower bound for the degree of (higher) secant varieties to a given projective variety, which extends the well known lower bound for the degree of a variety in terms of…

Given a smooth complex projective variety X, a line bundle L of X an element v of H^1(O_X) and a section s in H^0(L) that deforms to first order in the direction v, we give a sufficient condition on v in terms of Koszul cohomology for this…

We study the arithmetical ranks and the cohomological dimensions of an infinite class of Cohen-Macaulay varieties of minimal degree. Among these we find, on the one hand, infinitely many set-theoretic complete intersections, on the other…

We study Severi type inequalities for big line bundles on irregular varieties via cohomological rank functions. We show that these Severi type inequalities on an irregular variety $X$ are related to some natural defined birational…

We study the maximal rank in affine subspaces of symmetric or alternating matrices, in terms of the matching numbers of certain associated graphs. Applications include simple proofs of upper bounds on the dimension of such subspaces in…

In [17], we proved a structure theorem on the Mordell-Weil group of abelian varieties over function fields that arise as the twists of abelian varieties by the cyclic covers of projective varieties in terms of the Prym varieties associated…

The coincidence rank, introduced by Barge and Kwapisz, measures the regularity of the maximal equicontinuous factor of minimal dynamical systems. We provide a characterization of the finiteness of coincidence rank using a multivariate…

Using the formalism of Newton hyperplane arrangements, we resolve the open questions regarding angle rank left over from [DKRV20]. As a consequence we end up generalizing theorems of Lenstra--Zarhin and Tankeev proving several new cases of…

We consider the space of matrices, with given number of rows and of columns, equipped with the classic trace scalar product. With any matrix (source) norm, we associate a coupling, called Capra, between the space of matrices and itself.…

Let $a_X:X\rightarrow \mathrm{Alb}\, X$ be the Albanese map of a smooth complex projective variety. Roughly speaking in this note we prove that for all $i \geq 0$ and $\alpha\in \mathrm{Pic}^0\, X$, the cohomology ranks $h^i(\mathrm{Alb}\,…

An emerging theory of "linear-algebraic pseudorandomness" aims to understand the linear-algebraic analogs of fundamental Boolean pseudorandom objects where the rank of subspaces plays the role of the size of subsets. In this work, we study…
