Inspir\'es par un argument de C. Voisin, nous montrons l'existence d'hypersurfaces quartiques lisses dans ${\bf P}^4_{\mathbb C}$ qui ne sont pas stablement rationnelles, plus pr\'ecis\'ement dont le groupe de Chow de degr\'e z\'ero n'est…

In this note, we study various measures of irrationality for hypersurfaces in projective spaces which were recently proposed by Bastianelli, De Poi, Ein, Lazarsfeld and Ullery. In particular, we answer the question raised by Bastianelli…

We consider surjective endomorphisms f of degree > 1 on the projective n-space with n = 3, and f^{-1}-stable hypersurfaces V. We show that V is a hyperplane (i.e., deg(V) = 1) but with four possible exceptions; it is conjectured that deg(V)…

In this article, we establish an analogue of the dimension growth conjecture, which is regarding the density of rational points on projective varieties, for compact submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with non-vanishing curvature. We also…

We construct a smooth complex projective rational surface with infinitely many mutually non-isomorphic real forms. This gives the first definite answer to a long standing open question if a smooth complex projective rational surface has…

We prove that the determinantal complexity of a hypersurface of degree $d > 2$ is bounded below by one more than the codimension of the singular locus, provided that this codimension is at least $5$. As a result, we obtain that the…

We study the moduli spaces of rational curves on cubic hypersurfaces in characteristic $\neq2,3$. As a result, we prove that for every integer $d\geq1$ the Kontsevich moduli space of stable maps on a smooth cubic hypersurface $X$ of degree…

We prove rationality criteria over algebraically non-closed fields of characteristic $0$ for five out of six types of geometrically rational Fano threefolds of Picard number $1$ and geometric Picard number bigger than $1$. For the last type…

It was proved by J.~A.~Chen and M.~Chen that a terminal Fano $3$-fold $X$ satisfies $(-K_X)^3\geq \frac{1}{330}$. We show that a $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial terminal Fano $3$-fold $X$ with $\rho(X)=1$ and $(-K_X)^3=\frac{1}{330}$ is a weighted…

We consider some families of smooth Fano hypersurfaces $X_{n+2}$ in ${\bf P}^{n+2} \times {\bf P}^3$ given by a homogeneous polynomial of bidegree $(1,3)$. For these varieties we obtain lower bounds for the number of $F$-rational points of…

We give an explicit procedure which computes for degree $d \leq 3$ the correlation functions of topological sigma model (A-model) on a projective Fano hypersurface $X$ as homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ in the correlation functions of…

Segre proved that a smooth cubic surface over Q is unirational iff it has a rational point. We prove that the result also holds for cubic hypersurfaces over any field, including finite fields.

A nef-partition for a weighted complete intersection is a combinatorial structure on its weights and degrees which is important for Mirror Symmetry. It is known that nef-partitions exist for smooth well-formed Fano weighted complete…

Tilting bundles $\mathcal{T}$ on a weighted projective line $\mathbb{X}$ have been intensively studied by representation theorists since they give rise to a derived equivalence between $\mathbb{X}$ and the finite dimensional algebra End…

For a hypersurface in complex projective space $X\subset \PP^n$, we investigate the singularities and Kodaira dimension of the Kontsevich moduli spaces $\Kbm{0,0}{X,e}$ parametrizing rational curves of degree $e$ on $X$. If $d+e \leq n$ and…

We prove several results concerning automorphism groups of quasismooth complex weighted projective hypersurfaces; these generalize and strengthen existing results for hypersurfaces in ordinary projective space. First, we prove in most cases…

This note (which makes no claim to novelty) presents a proof of the separable rational connectedness of smooth cubic hypersurfaces, in any characteristic, by showing how to explicitly construct very free curves (of degree 3) on them. -----…

In this paper, we prove three related results; (1) Extension of our result in [10] to all generic hypersurfaces. More precisely, the normal sheaf of a generic rational map $c_0$ to a generic hypersurface $X_0$ of $\mathbf P^n, n\geq 4$ has…

In this paper, we study holomorphic foliations of degree four on complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$, where $n\geq 3$, with a special focus on obtaining a structural theorem for these foliations. Furthermore, for a foliation…

In this paper the notion of rational simple connectedness for the quintic Fano threefold $V_5\subset \mathbb{P}^6$ is studied and unirationality of the moduli spaces $\overline{M}_{0,0}^{\text{bir}}(V_5,d)$, with $d \ge 1$, is proved. Many…
