As proved recently in [PT], for varieties $X^{r+1}\subset \mathbb P^N$ such that through $n\geq 2$ general points there passes an irreducible curve $C$ of degree $\delta\geq n-1$ we have $N\leq \pi(r,n,\delta+r(n-1)+2)$, where $\pi(r,n,d)$…
We describe the possible noncommutative deformations of complex projective three-space by exhibiting the Calabi--Yau algebras that serve as their homogeneous coordinate rings. We prove that the space parametrizing such deformations has…
Let $G$ be a reductive complex algebraic group, $T$ a maximal torus of $G$, $B$ a Borel subgroup of $G$ containing $T$, $\Phi$ the root system of $G$ w.r.t. $T$, $W$ the Weyl group of $\Phi$. Denote by $\Fo = G/B$ the flag variety, by $X_w$…
In this paper we prove that decomposable forms, or homogeneous polynomials $F(x_1, \cdots, x_n)$ with integer coefficients which split completely into linear factors over $\mathbb{C}$, take on infinitely many square-free values subject to…
Let $X$ be a cubic fourfold in $P^5_{C}$. We prove that, assuming the Hodge conjecture for the product $S \times S$, where $S$ is a complex surface, and the finite dimensionality of the Chow motive $h(S)$, there are at most a countable…
We show that a smooth projective variety admits a Chow-Kunneth decomposition if the cohomology has level at most one except for the middle degree. This can be extended to the relative case in a weak sense if the morphism has only isolated…
We prove a relative version of the fact that semiorthogonal decompositions of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves are strongly constrained by the base locus of the canonical linear system. As an application we prove that the…
We derive Glynn's formula from Ryser's formula for the permanent. We further establish via an orbital argument that Glynn's formula yields an optimal row-homogeneous Chow-decomposition of the permanent. We introduce a method for…
In this paper we initiate the study of higher Chow cycles on holomorphic symplectic manifolds. Our concrete central result is construction of explicit indecomposable (2,1)- and (4,1)-cycles on the Fano varieties of lines on cyclic cubic…
We prove a complete classification of degree-$2$ foliations on $\mathbb{P}^n$ in any dimension, assuming they are not algebraically integrable. If $\mathcal{F}$ is such a foliation, then either $\mathcal{F}$ is the linear pull-back of a…
The least number of products of linear forms that may be added together to obtain a given form is the Chow rank of this form. The Chow rank of a generic form corresponds to the smallest s for which the sth secant variety of the Chow variety…
We prove that every smooth affine variety of dimension $d$ embeds into every simple algebraic group of dimension at least $2d+2$. We do this by establishing the existence of embeddings of smooth affine varieties into the total space of…
We give a robust version of the celebrated result of Kruskal on the uniqueness of tensor decompositions: we prove that given a tensor whose decomposition satisfies a robust form of Kruskal's rank condition, it is possible to approximately…
In this paper we study properties of the Chow ring of rational homogeneous varieties of classical type, more concretely, effective zero divisors of low codimension, and a related invariant called effective good divisibility. This…
We obtain examples of smooth projective varieties over $\mathbb{C}$ that violate the integral Hodge conjecture and for which the total Chow group is of finite rank. Moreover, we show that there exist such examples defined over number…
Let $C_{p,d}(\mathbb{P}^n)$ denote the Chow variety of effective algebraic $p$-cycles of degree $d$ in complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$. In this paper, we compute the rational Lawson homology groups…
In this paper, we consider all possible variants of Choi matrices of linear maps, and show that they are determined by non-degenerate bilinear forms on the domain space. We will do this in the setting of finite dimensional vector spaces. In…
We show how methods of algebraic geometry can produce criteria for the identifiability of specific tensors that reach beyond the range of applicability of the celebrated Kruskal criterion. More specifically, we deal with the symmetric…
We construct, for each 2<r<18, an explicit family of higher Chow cycles of type (2,1) on a family of lattice-polarized K3 surfaces of generic Picard rank r, and prove that the indecomposable part of this cycle is non-torsion for very…
We prove that any element in the Chow ring of the Hilbert scheme $\text{Hilb}_n$ of $n$ points on a smooth surface $S$ is a universal class, i.e. the pushforward of a polynomial in the Chern classes of the universal subscheme on…
