A positive integer $n$ is practical if every $m \leq n$ can be written as a sum of distinct divisors of $n$. One can generalize the concept of practical numbers by applying an arithmetic function $f$ to each of the divisors of $n$ and…

Let X be a smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that if D is a pseudo-effective R-divisor on X which is not numerically equivalent to the negative part in its divisorial Zariski…

Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a projective klt pair, and $f:X\to Y$ a fibration to a smooth projective variety $Y$ with strictly nef relative anti-log canonical divisor $-(K_{X/Y}+\Delta)$. We prove that $f$ is a locally constant fibration with…

We prove that Seshadri constants of some ample divisors are bigger than 1 on smooth threefolds whose anticanonical bundle is nef or on Fano varieties of small coindice. The main tools are (some known cases of) the Kawamata's effective…

In relation to the Erd\H os similarity problem (show that for any infinite set $A$ of real numbers there exists a set of positive Lebesgue measure which contains no affine copy of $A$) we give some new examples of infinite sets which are…

We study the ramification divisors of projections of a smooth projective variety onto a linear subspace of the same dimension. We prove that the ramification divisors vary in a maximal dimensional family for a large class of varieties.…

Erd\H{o}s asked for the largest size $f(n)$ of a subset of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ with no element dividing two others. We show that $f(n)=c_2\,n+o(n)$ for an effectively computable constant $c_2$, and moreover that the number $q(n)$ of such…

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 compute the class of the closure of the locus of canonical divisors in the projectivization of the Hodge bundle $\mathbb{P}\overline{\mathcal{H}}_g$ over $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_g$ which have a zero at a Weierstrass point. We also show…

Nef and effective cones of divisors have been the subject of much study. In contrast, their higher codimension analogues are much harder to compute and few examples exist in the literature. In this paper we compute the nef cones in…

Let $X$ be a projective variety over a number field $K$ (resp. over $\mathbb{C}$). Let $H$ be the sum of ``sufficiently many positive divisors'' on $X$. We show that any set of quasi-integral points (resp. any integral curve) in $X-H$ is…

Nonvanishing theorems play a central role in birational geometry, since they derive geometric consequences from numerical information and constitute a crucial step towards abundance and semiampleness problems. General nonvanishing…

We describe a construction of explicit affine extractors over large finite fields with exponentially small error and linear output length. Our construction relies on a deep theorem of Deligne giving tight estimates for exponential sums over…

In the present paper we investigate the existence of directional derivatives for strongly cone-paraconvex mappings. Our result is a counterpart of the theorem of Valadier concerning directional differentiability of cone convex mappings.

We show a strong factorization theorem of Dixmier-Malliavin type for ultradifferentiable vectors associated with compact Lie group representations on sequentially complete locally convex Hausdorff spaces. In particular, this solves a…

We prove that on a Bott-Samelson variety $X$ every movable divisor is nef. This enables us to consider Zariski decompositions of effective divisors, which in turn yields a description of the Mori chamber decomposition of the effective cone.…

In this note, we study the differentiability of the arithmetic volumes along arithmetic R-divisors, and give some equality conditions for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for arithmetic volumes over the cone of nef and big arithmetic…

A partial lattice P is ideal-projective, with respect to a class C of lattices, if for every K $\in$ C and every homomorphism $\phi$ of partial lattices from P to the ideal lattice of K, there are arbitrarily large choice functions f : P…

We give two criteria for a divisor on complex smooth projective variety to be ample using the multiplier ideal sheaf and the model category.

We prove that under a finite surjective map of irreducible smooth complex projective curves, the pullback and direct image of a parabolic ample (respectively, parabolic nef) vector bundle is again parabolic ample (respectively, parabolic…
