This paper uses noncommutative resolutions of non-Gorenstein singularities to construct classical deformation spaces, by recovering the Artin component of the deformation space of a cyclic surface singularity using only the quiver of the…
Let $G$ be a polyhedral group $G\subset SO(3)$ of types $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$, $D_{2n}$ and $\mathbb{T}$. We prove that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between flops of $G$-Hilb$\mathbb{C}^3$ and mutations of the McKay quiver…
We describe a mechanism for using discrete symmetries to solve the doublet-triplet splitting problem of four-dimensional supersymmetric GUT's. We present two versions of the mechanism, one via ``deconstruction,'' and one in terms of…
We propose a three dimensional generalization of the geometric McKay correspondence described by Gonzales-Sprinberg and Verdier in dimension two. We work it out in detail when G is abelian and C^3/G has a single isolated singularity. More…
The study of face-number-related invariants in simplicial complexes is a central topic in combinatorial topology. Among these, the invariant $g_2$ plays a significant role. For a normal $d$-pseudomanifold $K$ ($d \geq 3$), it is known that…
Motivated by a recent result of Y. Lee and the second author[7], we construct a simply connected minimal complex surface of general type with p_g=0 and K^2=3 using a rational blow-down surgery and Q-Gorenstein smoothing theory. In a similar…
We study the flat geometry of the least degenerate singularity of a singular surface in $\mathbb R^4$, the $I_{1}$ singularity parametrised by $(x,y)\mapsto(x,xy,y^{2},y^{3})$. This singularity appears generically when projecting a regular…
In this article, we study the geometric invariant theory (GIT) compactification of quintic threefolds. We study singularities, which arise in non-stable quintic threefolds, thus giving a partial description of the stable locus. We also give…
Let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $\text{SL}(2,\Bbbk)$ and let $R = \Bbbk[x,y]^G$ be the coordinate ring of the corresponding Kleinian singularity. In 1998, Crawley-Boevey and Holland defined deformations $\mathcal{O}^\lambda$ of $R$…
The main problem studied is resolution of singularities of the cotangent sheaf of a complex- or real-analytic variety Y (or of an algebraic variety Y over a field of characteristic zero). Given Y, we ask whether there is a global resolution…
In this paper, we prove that any two birational projective varieties with finite quotient singularities can be realized as two geometric GIT quotients of a non-singular projective variety by a reductive algebraic group. Then, by applying…
This paper is devoted to construct a minimal toric embedded resolution of a rational singularity via jet schemes. The minimality is reached by extending the concept of the profile of a simplicial cone given in 6.
In this paper, we construct a crepant resolution for the quotient singularity $\mathbb{A}^4/A_4$ in characteristic 2, where $A_4$ is the alternating group of degree 4 with permutation action on $\mathbb{A}^4$. By computing the Euler number…
The irreducible representations of complex semisimple algebraic groups with finitely many orbits are parametrized by graded simple Lie algebras. For the exceptional Lie algebras, Kraskiewicz and Weyman exhibit the Hilbert polynomials and…
We construct the first example of a 5-dimensional simply connected compact manifold that admits a K-contact structure but does not admit a semi-regular Sasakian structure. For this, we need two ingredients: (a) to construct a suitable…
A link of an isolated singularity of a two-dimensional semialgebraic surface in $R^4$ is a knot (or a link) in $S^3$. Thus the ambient Lipschitz classification of surface singularities in $R^4$ can be interpreted as a bi-Lipschitz…
We systematically study and obtain the large-volume analogues of fractional two-branes on resolutions of orbifolds C^3/Z_n. We study a generalisation of the McKay correspondence proposed in hep-th/0504164 called the quantum McKay…
In this paper, using the similarity method, we construct particular solutions with singularities for degenerate high-order equations. The considered equations have singularities of the first and second kind. Particular solutions are…
The quotient singularities of dimensions two and three obtained from polyhedral groups and the corresponding binary polyhedral groups admit natural resolutions of singularities as Hilbert schemes of regular orbits whose exceptional fibres…
As the sequel to [5, 7], we construct a simply connected minimal complex surface of general type with p_g = 0 and K^2 = 4 by using a rational blow-down surgery and Q-Gorenstein smoothing theory.
