We study the arithmetic of complete intersections in projective space over number fields. Our main results include arithmetic Torelli theorems and versions of the Shafarevich conjecture, as proved for curves and abelian varieties by…
We establish sufficient conditions for finite convergence of the alternating projections method for two non-intersecting and potentially nonconvex sets. Our results are based on a generalization of the concept of intrinsic transversality,…
Let $(S, \mathfrak n) $ be a regular local ring and let $I \subseteq \mathfrak n^2 $ be a perfect ideal of $S. $ Sharp upper bounds on the minimal number of generators of $I$ are known in terms of the Hilbert function of $R=S/I. $ Starting…
Let I be a complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R,m). In the case where R has dimension two, the beautiful theory developed by Zariski implies that I factors uniquely as a product of powers of simple complete ideals and each of…
We prove that the arithmetic degree of a graded or local ring is bounded above by the arithmetic degree of any of its associated graded rings with respect to ideals $I$ in $A$. In particular, if $Spec (A)$ is equidimensional and has an…
Let $M$ be a finitely generated module over a local complete intersection $R$ of characteristic $p>0$. The property that $M$ has finite projective dimension can be characterized by the vanishing of $\ext_R^i({}^{f^n} R,M)$ for some $i>0$…
For a $k$-algebra $A$, a quiver $Q$, and an ideal $I$ of $kQ$ generated by monomial relations, let $\Lambda: = A\otimes_k kQ/I$. We introduce the monic representations of $(Q, I)$ over $A$. We give properties of the structural maps of monic…
The height of a toric variety and that of its hypersurfaces can be expressed in convex-analytic terms as an adelic sum of mixed integrals of their roof functions and duals of their Ronkin functions. Here we extend these results to the…
Let $(R,m)$ be a Noetherian local ring and $I$ an ideal with finite projective dimension. If $R/I$ satisfies some property $\mathcal{P}$, it is natural to ask whether $R$ would also satisfy this property $\mathcal{P}$. This is called the…
For four wide classes of topological rings $\mathfrak R$, we show that all flat left $\mathfrak R$-contramodules have projective covers if and only if all flat left $\mathfrak R$-contramodules are projective if and only if all left…
We compute the alpha invariant of any smooth complex projective spin complete intersection of complex dimension $1 \; ({\rm mod} \; 4)$. We prove that the alpha invariant depends only on the total degree and Pontryagin classes. Our findings…
One version of the classical Lefschetz hyperplane theorem states that for $U \subset \mathbb P^n$ a smooth quasi-projective variety of dimension at least $2$, and $H \cap U$ a general hyperplane section, the resulting map on \'etale…
Let $(A, \frak m)$ be a noetherian local ring with maximal ideal $\frak{m}$ and infinite residue field $k = A/\frak{m}.$ Let $J$ be an $\frak m$-primary ideal, $I_1,...,I_s$ ideals of $A$, and $M$ a finitely generated $A$-module. In this…
In this paper, plane polynomial systems having a singular point attracting all orbits in positive time are classified up to topological equivalence. This is done by assigning a combinatorial invariant to the system (a so-called "feasible…
Consider a rational projective plane curve C parameterized by three homogeneous forms h1,h2,h3 of the same degree d in the polynomial ring R=k[x,y] over the field k. Extracting a common factor, we may harmlessly assume that the ideal…
We prove several surjectivity criteria for $p$-adic representations. In particular, we classify all adjoint and simply connected group schemes $G$ over the Witt ring $W(k)$ of a finite field $k$ such that the epimorphism…
The purpose of this paper is to prove the following theorem of uniform Artin-Rees properties: Let $A$ be an excellent (in fact J-2) ring and let $N\subset M$ be two finitely generated $A$-modules such that ${\rm dim}(M/N)\leq 1$. Then there…
Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring and $I$ an ideal in $A$. We characterize algebraically when all the minimal primes of the associated graded ring $G_I A$ contract to minimal primes of $A/I$. This, applied to intersection theory,…
Let S be a polynomial ring in n variables, over an arbitrary field. We give the total, graded, and multigraded Betti numbers of S/M, for every monomial ideal M in S. We also give an explicit characterization of all monomial ideals M in S…
Let X be a smooth complete intersection. Suppose p and q are general points of X, we consider conics in X passing through p and q. We show the moduli space of these conics is a smooth complete intersection. The main ingredients of the proof…
