Popa and Schnell show that any holomorphic 1-form on a smooth projective variety of general type has zeros. In this article, we show that a smooth good minimal model has a holomorphic 1-form without zero if and only if it admits an analytic…
We study the positive theory of groups acting on trees and show that under the presence of weak small cancellation elements, the positive theory of the group is trivial, i.e. coincides with the positive theory of a non-abelian free group.…
For a normal F-finite variety $X$ and a boundary divisor $\Delta$ we give a uniform description of an ideal which in characteristic zero yields the multiplier ideal, and in positive characteristic the test ideal of the pair $(X,\Delta)$.…

Let X be an algebraic toric set in a projective space over a finite field. We study the vanishing ideal, I(X), of X and show some useful degree bounds for a minimal set of generators of I(X). We give an explicit description of a set of…
We show that if $X$ is a smooth complex projective variety with Kodaira dimension $0$ then the Kodaira dimension of a general fiber of its Albanese map is at most $h^0(\Omega ^1 _X)$.
Let X be a proper smooth variety over the complex numbers. We consider the generalized Albanese variety Alb(X,Y) of X of modulus Y, which is a higher dimensional analogue of the generalized Jacobian variety with modulus of Rosenlicht-Serre.…
Let $(X,B)$ be a pair of a normal surface over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$ and an effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $B$ on $X$. We prove that Steenbrink-type vanishing holds for $(X,B)$ if it is log canonical and $p>5$, or it is…
Let G be a smooth algebraic group acting on a variety X. Let F and E be coherent sheaves on X. We show that if all the higher Tor sheaves of F against G-orbits vanish, then for generic g in G, the sheaf Tor^X_j(gF, E) vanishes for all j >0.…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $D$ be a simple normal crossing divisor. If $D$ is the support of some effective $k$-ample divisor, we show $$ H^q(X,\Omega^p_X(\log D))=0,\quad \text{for}\quad p+q>n+k.$$
We show that a generic vector field on an affine space of positive characteristic admits an invariant algebraic hypersurface. This contrast with Jouanolou's Theorem that shows that in characteristic zero the situation is completely…
We study how the geometry of a projective variety $X$ is reflected in the positivity properties of the diagonal $\Delta_X$ considered as a cycle on $X \times X$. We analyze when the diagonal is big, when it is nef, and when it is rigid. In…
We prove that the algorithm for desingularization of algebraic varieties in characteristic zero of the first two authors is functorial with respect to regular morphisms. For this purpose, we show that, in characteristic zero, a regular…
