Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$, let $S$ be a smooth, geometrically connected variety over $k$, with generic point $\eta$, and $f:\mathbb{X}\rightarrow S$ a morphism separated and of finite type. Fix a prime $\ell$. Let…

We study the local differential geometry of varieties $X^n\subset \Bbb C\Bbb P^{n+a}$ with degenerate secant and tangential varieties. We show that the second fundamental form of a smooth variety with degenerate tangential variety is…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective split horospherical variety over a number field $k$ and $x\in X(k)$. Contingent on Vojta's conjecture, we construct a curve $C$ through $x$ such that (in a precise sense) rational points on $C$ approximate $x$…

We study admissible subcategories of the bounded derived category of a smooth projective surface that are supported on the exceptional locus of a birational morphism. We prove that if $f:X\to Y$ is a birational morphism of smooth projective…

In this article, we give a proof for a geometric presentation theorem for any irreducible scheme $X$ smooth projective over a discrete valuation ring $R$. As a consequence, for any reductive $R$-group scheme $\mathbf{G}$, we prove that any…

We show that varieties of dimension at least 2 over infinite fields are determined as abstract schemes by their Zariski topological spaces together with the rational equivalence relation on the set of effective divisors. This gives a…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field endowed with a complete non-archimedean norm with valuation ring $R$. Let $f\colon Y\to X$ be a map of $K$-affinoid varieties. In this paper we study the analytic structure of the image $f(Y)\subset…

We consider a smooth projective morphism between smooth complex projective varieties. If the source space is a weak Fano (or Fano) manifold, then so is the target space. Our proof is Hodge theoretic. We do not need mod $p$ reduction…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, and let f be a morphism of smooth projective varieties from X to Y over the ring k((t)) of formal Laurent series. We prove that if a general geometric fiber of f is rationally…

It is proved that, if $K$ is a complete discrete valuation field of mixed characteristic $(0,p)$ with residue field satisfying a mild condition, then any abelian variety over $K$ with potentially good reduction has finite…

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety admitting a polarized endomorphism $f$, i.e., $f^*H\sim qH$ for some ample divisor $H$ and integer $q>1$. It was conjectured by Broustet and Gongyo that $X$ is of Calabi-Yau type, i.e., $(X,\Delta)$ is…

Given a smooth projective variety $X$ over a number field $k$ and $P\in X(k)$, the first author conjectured that in a precise sense, any sequence that approximates $P$ sufficiently well must lie on a rational curve. We prove this conjecture…

Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective variety of dimension $d$. Under some assumption on the cohomology of $X$, we construct mutually orthogonal idempotents in $CH_d(X \times X) \otimes \Q$ whose action on algebraically trivial cycles…

For G a complex reductive group and X a smooth projective or convex quasi-projective polarized G-variety we construct a formal map in quantum K-theory from the equivariant quantum K-theory $QK^G(X)$ to the quantum K-theory of the git…

It is conjectured by de Jong that, if $X$ is a connected smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ with trivial \'etale fundamental group, any isocrystal on on $X/W$ is trivial. We prove this…

We prove the existence of a regular semigroup F(X) weakly generated by X such that all other regular semigroups weakly generated by X are homomorphic images of F(X). The semigroup F(X) is introduced by a presentation and the word problem…

A variety X over a field K is of Hilbert type if the set of rational points X(K) is not thin. We prove that if f: X\to S is a dominant morphism of K-varieties and both S and all fibers f^{-1}(s), s in S(K), are of Hilbert type, then so is…

In this note, we shall prove that two smooth projective varieties of dim 2n connected by a Mukai flop have equivalent bounded derived categories. More precisely, let $\phi : X - - \to X^+$ be a Mukai flop with centers $Y \subset X$ and $Y^+…

Let $R$ be the homogeneous coordinate ring of a smooth projective variety $X$ over a field $\k$ of characteristic~0. We calculate the $K$-theory of $R$ in terms of the geometry of the projective embedding of $X$. In particular, if $X$ is a…

The Bounded Negativity Conjecture predicts that for any smooth complex surface $X$ there exists a lower bound for the selfintersection of reduced divisors on $X$. This conjecture is open. It is also not known if the existence of such a…
