Given a smooth projective variety over a perfect field of positive characteristic, we prove that the higher cohomologies vanish for the tensor product of the Witt canonical sheaf and the Teichmuller lift of an ample invertible sheaf. We…
We introduce the class of weakly log canonical singularities, a natural generalization of semi-log canonical singularities. Toric varieties (associated to toric face rings, possibly non-normal or reducible) which have weakly (semi-) log…
In this paper, we clarify the mistakes made in the former article entitled "Vanishing Theorems on Toric Varieties in Positive Characteristic". On the other hand, we use the positive characteristic method to reprove the Bott vanishing…
Let $\Sigma$ be a smooth projective surface, let $f' : S' \to \Sigma$ be a double cover of $\Sigma$ and let $\mu : S \to S'$ be the canonical resolution. Put $f = f'\circ\mu$. An irreducible curve $C$ on $\Sigma$ is said to be a splitting…
A general theorem on the existence of natural torsion-free affine connections on a complete family of compact complex submanifolds in a complex manifold is proved. Applications to twistor theory are discussed.
We bring additional support to the conjecture saying that a rational cuspidal plane curve is either free or nearly free. This conjecture was confirmed for curves of even degree, and in this note we prove it for many odd degrees. In…
In this paper we discuss some properties of fundamental groups and Alexander polynomials of plane curves. We discuss the relationship of the non-triviality of Alexander polynomials and the notion of (nearly) freeness for irreducible plane…
We formulate and analyze several finiteness conjectures for linear algebraic groups over higher-dimensional fields. In fact, we prove all of these conjectures for algebraic tori as well as in some other situations. This work relies in an…
We explore a relationship between topological properties of orbits of 2-cycles in the symplectomorphism group Symp(M) and the existence of rational curves in M. Under the absence of rational curves hypothesis, we show that evaluation map…
In this paper, we give explicit combinatorial descriptions for toric extremal contractions under the relative setting, where varieties do not need to be complete. Fujino's completion theorem is the key to the main result. As applications,…
In this note we investigate the behavior of the polar tangential angle of a general plane curve, and in particular prove its monotonicity for certain curves of monotone curvature. As an application we give (non)existence results for an…
In this paper, the technique of foliations in characteristic $p$ is used to investigate the difference between rational connectedness and separable rational connectedness in positive characteristic. The notion of being freely rationally…
We prove the existence of log canonical modifications for a log pair. As an application, together with Koll\"ar's gluing theory, we remove the assumption in the first named author's work [Odaka11], which shows that K-semistable polarized…
Using the sieve for Frobenius, we show that, in a certain sense, the roots of the L-functions of "most" algebraic curves over finite fields do not satisfy any non-trivial (linear or multiplicative) rational dependency relations. This can be…
Congruences of Fourier coefficients of modular forms have long been an object of central study. By comparison, the arithmetic of other expansions of modular forms, in particular Taylor expansions around points in the upper-half plane, has…
We study deformations of rational curves and their singularities in positive characteristic. We use this to prove that if a smooth and proper surface in positive characteristic $p$ is dominated by a family of rational curves such that one…
We generalize Mattei's result relative to the Brian\c{c}on-Skoda theorem for foliations to the family of foliations of the second type. We use this generalization to establish relationships between the Milnor and Tjurina numbers of…
We prove the special termination for log canonical pairs and its generalisation in the context of generalised pairs.
We introduce a toric version of the sheaf of logarithmic vector fields along a divisor of a simplicial toric variety. The notion is also relevant for algebraically independent families of polynomials in the Cox ring. We provide a…
We construct modular resolutions of singularities for splitting loci, and use them to show that tame splitting loci have rational singularities. As a corollary of our results and Hurwitz-Brill-Noether theory, we prove that if $C$ is a…
