This article shows that the Cremona group is compactly presentable. To prove this we show that it is a generalised amalgamated product of three of its algebraic subgroups (automorphisms of the plane and Hirzebruch surfaces) divided by one…

We study determinantal Cremona maps, i.e. birational maps whose base ideal is the maximal minors ideal of a given matrix $\Phi$, via the resolution of the polynomials systems defined by $\Phi$. Using convex geometry, this approach leads in…

We study a new notion of reduction between structures called enumerable functors related to the recently investigated notion of computable functors. Our main result shows that enumerable functors and effective interpretability with the…

This work is about the structure of the symbolic Rees algebra of the base ideal of a Cremona map. We give sufficient conditions under which this algebra has the "expected form" in some sense. The main theorem in this regard seemingly covers…

This paper studies well-defindness and convergence of subdivision schemes which operate on Riemannian manifolds with nonpositive sectional curvature. These schemes are constructed from linear ones by replacing affine averages by the…

Let $E\subseteq \mathbb{P}^2$ be a complex rational cuspidal curve contained in the projective plane. The Coolidge-Nagata conjecture asserts that $E$ is Cremona equivalent to a line, i.e. it is mapped onto a line by some birational…

In this paper, we consider rational maps whose source is a product of two subvarieties, each one being embedded in a projective space. Our main objective is to investigate birationality criteria for such maps. First, a general criterion is…

We describe the equivariant cohomology ring of rationally smooth projective embeddings of reductive groups. These embeddings are the projectivizations of reductive monoids. Our main result describes their equivariant cohomology in terms of…

We construct invariants of birational maps with values in the Kontsevich--Tschinkel group and in the truncated Grothendieck groups of varieties. These invariants are morphisms of groupoids and are well-suited to investigating the structure…

We develop the theory of truncated wedge schemes, a higher dimensional analog of jet schemes. We prove some basic properties and give an irreducibility criterion for truncated wedge schemes of a locally complete intersection variety…

For any $n\geq 3$, we prove that there exist equivalences between these apparently unrelated objects: irreducible $n$-dimensional non degenerate projective varieties $X\subset \mathbb P^{2n+1}$ different from rational normal scrolls and…

In this short note we observe that the higher topological complexity of an iterated connected sum of real projective spaces is maximal possible. Unlike the case of regular TC, the result is accessible through easy mod 2 zero-divisor…

In this note, we generalize the Proj-construction from usual schemes to blue schemes. This yields the definition of projective space and projective varieties over a blueprint. In particular, it is possible to descend closed subvarieties of…

A Cremona transformation is a birational self-map of the projective space $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $. Cremona transformations of $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $ form a group and this group has a rational action on subvarieties of $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $ and hence on…

A projected Gromov-Witten variety is the union of all rational curves of fixed degree that meet two opposite Schubert varieties in a homogeneous space X = G/P. When X is cominuscule we prove that the map from a related Gromov-Witten variety…

We extend Orlov's result on representability of equivalences to schemes projective over a field. We also investigate the quasi-projective case.

We look at algebraic embeddings of the Cremona group in $n$ variables $Cr_n(C)$ to the group of birational transformations $Bir(M)$ of an algebraic variety $M$. First we study geometrical properties of an example of an embedding of…

We describe an infinite set of smooth projective threefolds that have equivalent derived categories but are not isomorphic, contrary to a conjecture of Kawamata. These arise as blow-ups of $\mathbb P^3$ at various configurations of 8…

It is well known that two finite sequences of vectors in inner product spaces are unitarily equivalent if and only if their respective inner products (Gram matrices) are equal. Here we present a corresponding result for the projective…

We present the abelianisation of the birational transformations of the real projective plane.
