We prove an analogue of Fujino and Mori's ``bounding the denominators'' in the log canonical bundle formula (see also Prokhorov and Shokurov) for Kawamata log terminal pairs of relative dimension one. As an application we prove that for a…
Motivated by a conjecture of Xiao, we study supporting divisors of fibred surfaces. On the one hand, after developing a formalism to treat one-dimensional families of varieties of any dimension, we give a structure theorem for fibred…
Given a fibration over a perfect field of positive characteristic, we study an Iitaka-type inequality for the anticanonical divisors. We conclude that it holds when the source of the fibration is a threefold or when the target is a curve,…
Let $f:X\to Y$ be a fibration from a smooth projective 3-fold to a smooth projective curve, over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p >5$. We prove that if the generic fiber $X_{\eta}$ has big canonical divisor…
We give a proof of Mukai's Theorem on the existence of certain exceptional vector bundles on prime Fano threefolds. To our knowledge this is the first complete proof in the literature. The result is essential for Mukai's biregular…
We provide supplements and open problems related to structure theorems for maximal rationally connected fibrations of certain positively curved projective varieties, including smooth projective varieties with semi-positive holomorphic…
Using the theory of moduli of curves, we establish various slope inequalities for general fibered surfaces. More precisely, we introduce the notion of functorial divisors on Artin stacks and prove a theorem concerning their effectiveness.…
We study deformation theory of elliptic fibre bundles over curves in positive characteristics. As applications, we give examples of non-liftable elliptic surfaces in charactertic two and three, which answers a question of Katsura and Ueno.…
In this article, we explore the extremal contractions of several projective bundles over smooth Fano varieties of Picard rank $1$. We provide a whole class of examples of projective bundles with smooth blow-up structures, derived from the…
We propose a conjectural extension to positive characteristic case of a well known Deligne's theorem on the existence of super fiber functors. We prove our conjecture in the special case of semisimple categories with finitely many…
Based on a recent extension theorem for reflexive differential forms, that is, regular differential forms defined on the smooth locus of a possibly singular variety, we study the geometry and cohomology of sheaves of reflexive…
In this paper, we investigate singularities on fibrations and related topics. We prove conjectures of McKernan and Shokurov on singularities on Fano type fibrations and a conjecture of the author on singularities on log Calabi-Yau…
We generalize Fujiki relation of Beauville-Bogomolov quadratic form on a projective symplectic variety. As an application, we study a fibre space structure of a projective symplectic variety.
We describe explicitly the possible degenerations of a class of double Kodaira fibrations in the moduli space of stable surfaces. Using deformation theory we also show that under some assumptions we get a connected component of the moduli…
We show that the general fibres of the Albanese morphism of a projective special manifold are special as well (a question raised by the first-named author). The main ingredient of the proof is a version (established by Birkar and Chen) with…
We revisit results of Fujino--Sato on complete non-projective $\mathbb Q$-factorial toric varieties and their conjectural factorization by flips. We show that their main results admit short conceptual proofs, avoiding any restriction on the…
We prove some general results on syzygies of smooth projective varieties with numerically trivial canonical line bundle. This allows to confirm several cases of Mukai's syzygies conjecture for finite quotients of abelian varieties in any…
We study relative Fourier-Mukai transforms on genus one fibrations with section, allowing explicitly the total space of the fibration to be singular and non-projective. Grothendieck duality is used to prove a skew-commutativity relation…
We complete the study of birational geometry of Fano fiber spaces $\pi\colon V\to {\mathbb P}^1$, the fiber of which is a Fano double hypersurface of index 1. For each family of these varieties we either prove birational rigidity or produce…
We prove a relative version of the theorem of Cho, Miyaoka and Shepherd-Barron: a Mori fibre space of maximal length is birational to a projective bundle.
