Modifying the notion of numerically trivial foliation of a pseudo-effective line bundle L introduced by the author in math.AG/0304312 it can be shown that the leaves of this foliation have codimension bigger or equal to the numerical…

Let $\f: X \ra Z$ be a proper surjective map from a smooth complex manifold $X$ onto a normal variety $Z$. If $\f$ has connected fibers and $-K_X$ is $\f$-ample then $\f$ is called a good contraction. In the present paper we study good…

Perturbing usual type B topological matter with vector $(0,1)$-forms we find a topological theory which contains explicitly Kodaira-Spencer deformation theory. It is shown that, in genus zero, three-point correlation functions give the…

We answer an open problem raised by Chen and Zhang in 2008 and prove that, for any minimal projective 3-fold $X$ of general type with the geometric genus $\geq 5$, $X$ is birationally fibred by a pencil of $(1,2)$-surfaces (i.e. $c_1^2=1$,…

In this note we define fibrations of topological stacks and establish their main properties. We prove various standard results about fibrations (fiber homotopy exact sequence, Leray-Serre and Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequences, etc.). We…

We prove that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective complex variety reconstructs the isomorphism classes of fibrations onto smooth projective curves of genus $g\geq 2$. Moreover, in dimension at most four,…

For a fibration with the fiber $K(\pi,n)$-space, the algebraic model as a twisted tensor product of chains of the base with standard chains of $K(\pi,n)$-complex is given which preserves multiplicative structure as well. In terms of this…

For flat proper families of algebraic varieties with a smooth fiber, we describe the abelian category of coherent sheaves on the generic fiber as a Serre quotient. As an application, we prove specialization of derived equivalence. As…

There are infinitely many variants of the notion of Kan fibration that, together with suitable choices of cofibrations and the usual notion of weak equivalence of simplicial sets, satisfy Quillen's axioms for a homotopy model category. The…

In this paper, we will show that strong approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction holds for certain quadratic fibration such that none of fibers satisfies strong approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction. Moreover, we develop the…

We consider log deformations of affine surfaces with fibrations by the affine lines. Such a fibration is of affine type (resp. of complete type) if the base curve of the fibration is an affine curve (resp. a complete curve). The case of…

We generalize the construction of Raynaud of smooth projective surfaces of general type in positive characteristic that violate the Kodaira vanishing theorem. This corrects an earlier paper of the same purpose. These examples are smooth…

We study the existence and properties of birationally equivalent models for elliptically fibered varieties. In particular these have either the structure of Mori fiber spaces or, assuming some standard conjectures, minimal models with a…

We develop a categorical framework for reasoning about abstract properties of differentiation, based on the theory of fibrations. Our work encompasses the first-order fragments of several existing categorical structures for differentiation,…

We show that scale-invariant special Kahler geometries whose generic r-complex-dimensional abelian variety fiber is isomorphic (completely split) or isogenous (completely iso-split) as a complex torus to the product of r one-dimensional…

Let X be a smooth, complex Fano variety. For every prime divisor D in X, we set c(D):=dim ker(r:H^2(X,R)->H^2(D,R)), where r is the natural restriction map, and we define an invariant of X as c_X:=max{c(D)|D is a prime divisor in X}. In a…

In this paper a monodromy invariant for isotropic classes on generalized Kummer type manifolds is constructed. This invariant is used to determine the polarization type of Lagrangian fibrations on such manifolds - a notion which was…

It is proved that a general Fano hypersurface of index 1 (in the projective space) with isolated singularities of general position is birationally rigid. Therefore it cannot be fibered into uniruled varieties of a smaller dimension by a…

We introduce a new stable birational invariant, which takes the form of a functor sending a degenerating variety to the homotopy type of a chain complex. Our invariant is a categorification of the motivic volume of Nicaise and Shinder. From…

In this part of the series, we shall investigate Deligne-Mumford semistable reductions from the point of view of numerical invariants. As an application, we obtain two numerical criterions for a base change to be stabilizing, and for a…
