We address the following question of partial desingularization preserving normal crossings. Given an algebraic (or analytic) variety X in characteristic zero, can we find a finite sequence of blowings-up preserving the normal-crossings…
The Shafarevich conjecture/problem is about the finiteness of isomorphism classes of a family of varieties defined over a number field with good reduction outside a finite collection of places. For K3 surfaces, such a finiteness result was…
We investigate surface singularities defined by weighted-L\^e-Yomdin polynomials, with a particular focus on a specific subclass that we refer to as Newton weighted-L\^e-Yomdin polynomials. In particular, using polynomials in this subclass,…
In this paper we show a general method to compactify certain open varieties by adding normal crossing divisors. This is done by proving that {\it blowing up along an arrangement of subvarieties} can be carried out. Important examples such…
We show that in any $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein flat family of klt singularities, normalized volumes can only jump down at countably many subvarieties. A quick consequence is that smooth points have the largest normalized volume among all klt…
We develop some methods to construct normal crossing varieties whose dual complexes are two-dimensional, which are smoothable to Calabi--Yau threefolds. We calculate topological invariants of smoothed Calabi--Yau threefolds and show that…
We prove a conjecture of Maulik, Pandharipande, and Thomas expressing the Gromov--Witten invariants of K3 surfaces for divisibility two curve classes in all genus in terms of weakly holomorphic quasimodular forms of level two. Then, we…
We investigate basic properties of uniformly rational varieties, i.e. those smooth varieties for which every point has a Zariski open neighborhood isomorphic to an open subset of A^n. It is an open question of Gromov whether all smooth…
The K-rings of non-singular complex pro jective varieties as well as quasi- toric manifolds were described in terms of generators and relations in an earlier work of the author with V. Uma. In this paper we obtain a similar description for…
An orbifold version of Bogomolov decomposition theorem is established for compact K\"ahler spaces with quotient singularities and first Chern class zero.The proof is a direct adaptation of the classical smooth case, using Ricci-flat…
We classify deformation quantizations of the symplectic supervarieties that are smooth and admissible. This generalizes the corresponding result of Bezrukavnikov and Kaledin to the super case. We relate the equivalence classes of…
Splice type surface singularities were introduced by Neumann and Wahl as a generalization of the class of Pham-Brieskorn-Hamm complete intersections of dimension two. Their construction depends on a weighted tree called a splice diagram. In…
The Grothendieck ring of varieties has well-known realization maps to, say, mixed Hodge structures or compactly supported $\ell$-adic cohomology. Zakharevich and\ Campbell have developed {a spectral refinement} of the Grothendieck ring of…
We study holomorphic foliations on normal crossings varieties arising as semistable degenerations. We do so by we exploring the notion of foliated d-semistability using the language of logarithmic structures in the sense of…
For any unbranched double covering of compact Riemann surfaces, we study the associated character varieties that are unitary in the global sense, which we call $\text{GL}_n\rtimes\!<\!\sigma\!>\!~$-character varieties. We introduce $k>0$…
We study toric varieties over a field k that split in a Galois extension K/k using Galois cohomology with coefficients in the toric automorphism group. Part of this Galois cohomology fits into an exact sequence induced by the presentation…
In this article, we consider Nakajima quiver varieties from the point of view of symplectic algebraic geometry. We prove that they are all symplectic singularities in the sense of Beauville and completely classify which admit symplectic…
The Severi variety parameterizes plane curves of degree d with delta nodes. Its degree is called the Severi degree. For large enough d, the Severi degrees coincide with the Gromov-Witten invariants of P^2. Fomin and Mikhalkin (2009) proved…
We provide a combinatorial characterization of monomial linear systems on toric varieties whose general member is quasismooth. This is given both in terms of the Newton polytope and in terms of the matrix of exponents of a monomial basis.
In the first part of this paper, we establish some results around generalized Borel's Theorem. As an application, in the second part, we construct example of smooth surface of degree $d\geq 19$ in $\mathbb{CP}^3$ whose complements is…
