We introduce higher-order variants of the Frobenius-Seshadri constant due to Musta\c{t}\u{a} and Schwede, which are defined for ample line bundles in positive characteristic. These constants are used to show that Demailly's criterion for…

We prove that in characteristic zero the multiplication of sections of dominant line bundles on a complete symmetric variety $X=\bar{G/H}$ is a surjective map. As a consequence the cone defined by a complete linear system over $X$, or over…

We study the Seshadri constants on geometrically ruled surfaces. The unstable case is completely solved. Moreover, we give some bounds for the stable case. We apply these results to compute the Seshadri constant of the rational and elliptic…

We study asymptotic invariants of linear series on surfaces with the help of Newton-Okounkov polygons. Our primary aim is to understand local positivity of line bundles in terms of convex geometry. We work out characterizations of ample and…

Let $X$ be a regular tame stack. If $X$ is locally of finite type over a field, we prove that the essential dimension of $X$ is equal to its generic essential dimension, this generalizes a previous result of P. Brosnan, Z. Reichstein and…

We study the following question: Given a vector bundle on a projective variety $X$ such that the restriction of $E$ to every closed curve $C \,\subset\, X$ is ample, under what conditions $E$ is ample? We first consider the case of an…

Seshadri constants, introduced by Demailly, measure the local positivity of a nef divisor at a point. In this paper, we compute the Seshadri constants of the anticanonical divisors of Fano manifolds with coindex at most $3$ at a very…

We compute Seshadri constants $\eps(X):= \eps(\O_X(1))$ on $K3$ surfaces $X$ of degrees 6 and 8. Moreover, more generally, we prove that if $X$ is any embedded $K3$ surface of degree $2r-2 \geq 8$ in $\PP^r$ not containing lines, then $1 <…

Yanchevski\u{i} had asked whether conic bundle surfaces over $\mathbf{P}^1_k$ are unirational when $k$ is a finite field. We give a partial answer to his question by showing that for quasi-finite fields $k$ (e.g. finite fields) a regular…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g \geq 2 defined over a field of characteristic two. We give examples of stable orthogonal bundles with unstable underlying vector bundles and use them to give counterexamples to Behrend's…

In characteristic zero, semistable principal bundles on a nonsingular projective curve with a semisimple structure group form a bounded family, as shown by Ramanathan in 1970's using the Narasimhan-Seshadri theorem. This was the first step…

We compute in this note the Seshadri constants of the anticanonical bundle at every point of Del Pezzo surfaces. During the proof, we enlight the role of rational curves in our computations. We present then two exemples where the positivity…

Suppose D is an effective divisor on a smooth projective algebraic variety X. For each point x of X we associate a numberical invariant called the moving Seshadri constant of D at x which is a numerical measure of positivity of the divisor…

The purpose of this paper is to explicitly compute the Seshadri constants of all ample line bundles on fake projective planes. The proof relies on the theory of the Toledo invariant, and more precisely on its characterization of…

Let $Y$ be a submanifold of dimension $y$ of a polarized complex manifold $(X,A)$ of dimension $k\geq 3$, with $1\leq y\leq k-1$. We define and study two positivity conditions on $Y$ in $(X,A)$, called Seshadri $A$-bigness and (a stronger…

We give a $K$-theoretic criterion for a quasi-projective variety to be smooth. If $\mathbb{L}$ is a line bundle corresponding to an ample invertible sheaf on $X$, it suffices that $K_q(X) = K_q(\mathbb{L})$ for all $q\le\dim(X)+1$.

Let X_g=C^{(2)}_g be the second symmetric product of a very general curve of genus g. We reduce the problem of describing the ample cone on X_g to a problem involving the Seshadri constant of a point on X_{g-1}. Using this we recover a…
