Given a singular hypersurface in a regular 2-dimensional scheme essentially of finite type over a field, we construct an embedded resolution of singularities by weighted blow-ups. This differs from our earlier work which required…
We show that the minimum weight of a weighted blow-up of $\mathbf A^d$ with $\varepsilon$-log canonical singularities is bounded by a constant depending only on $\varepsilon $ and $d$. This was conjectured by Birkar. Using the recent…
We prove the existence of resolution of singularities for arbitrary (not necessarily reduced or irreducible) excellent two-dimensional schemes, via permissible blow-ups. The resolution is canonical, and functorial with respect to…
Let f: X -> Z be a local, projective, divisorial contraction between normal varieties of dimension n with Q-factorial singularities. Let $Y \subset X$ be a f-ample Cartier divisor and assume that f|Y: Y -> W has a structure of a weighted…
We complete the explicit study of a three-fold divisorial contraction whose exceptional divisor contracts to a point, by treating the case where the point downstairs is a singularity of index $n \ge 2$. We prove that if this singularity is…
In characteristic zero, we construct logarithmic resolution of singularities, with simple normal crossings exceptional divisor, using weighted blow-ups.
We provide a procedure for resolving, in characteristic 0, singularities of a variety $X$ embedded in a smooth variety $Y$ by repeatedly blowing up the worst singularities, in the sense of stack-theoretic weighted blowings up. No history,…
We answer a question raised by Caucher Birkar for singularities of weighted blowups of $\mathbb{A}^n$, if $n\leq 3$.
We first introduce and study the notion of multi-weighted blow-ups, which is later used to systematically construct an explicit yet efficient algorithm for functorial logarithmic resolution in characteristic zero, in the sense of Hironaka.…
We establish existence of functorial orbifold reductions of singularities for Poisson subvarieties in smooth Poisson threefolds. Namely, we show that with enough weighted blowups, one can reduce the singularities of such Poisson…
In this paper, we consider the mass-critical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in one dimension. Ogawa--Tsutsumi [19] proved a blow-up result for negative energy solution by using a scaling argument for initial data. By the reason, the…
In this paper we describe a computer implementation of Abramovich, Temkin, and Wlodarczyk's algorithm for resolving singularities in characteristic zero. Their "weighted resolution" algorithm proceeds by repeatedly blowing up along centers…
This article is an exposition of an elementary constructive proof of canonical resolution of singularities in characteristic zero, presented in detail in Invent. Math. 128 (1997), 207-302. We define a new local invariant and get an…
This article contains an elementary constructive proof of resolution of singularities in characteristic zero. Our proof applies in particular to schemes of finite type and to analytic spaces (so we recover the great theorems of Hironaka).…
For a weighted quasihomogeneous two dimensional hypersurface singularity, we define a smoothing with unipotent monodromy and an isolated graded normal singularity. We study the natural weighted blow up of both the smoothing and the surface.…
In this article, we prove that the blow-up of a locally irreducible lcK space $X$ along a subspace $Z$ which verifies certain conditions is lcK if and only if $X$ is induced gcK, generalizing a theorem of Ornea-Verbitsky-Vuletescu to…
We study how different types of blow-ups can occur in systems of hyperbolic evolution equations of the type found in general relativity. In particular, we discuss two independent criteria that can be used to determine when such blow-ups can…
In 2019, Abramovich--Temkin--Wlodarczyk and McQuillan used weighted blow-ups to obtain very fast and functorial algorithms for resolution of singularities in characteristic zero. Recently, Abramovich--Quek--Schober simplified the…
In characteristic zero, we construct a canonical, functorial resolution algorithm by weighted blow-ups that strictly preserves the normal crossings (nc) locus, effectively answering Kollar's problem. Operating in full generality, our…
Categorical resolution of singularities has been constructed in arXiv:1212.6170. It proceeds by alternating two steps of seemingly different nature. We show how to use the formalism of filtered derived categories to combine the two steps…
