We prove that real projective space RP^{n-3} is homeomorphic to the space of all isometry classes of n-gons in the plane with one side of length n-2 and all other sides of length 1. This makes the topological complexity of real projective…

A different proof to a known criterion of derived equivalence implying birationality is given. Derived equivalent smooth projective curves over an algebraically closed field are proved to be isomorphic. A different proof of derived…

We show that a topometric space $X$ is topometrically isomorphic to a type space of some continuous first-order theory if and only if $X$ is compact and has an open metric (i.e., satisfies that $\{p : d(p,U) < \varepsilon\}$ is open for…

In this paper we prove a generalization of a theorem of Schneider, which gives a criterion for a projective surface over the complex numbers to have an ample cotangent bundle. After reviewing different notions of positivity, we introduce a…

A result of Beauville states that with a few positive characterstic exceptions, the smooth hyperplane sections of hypersurfaces of degree $d>2$ in projective space are not all isomorphic. We address the question of whether these sections…

In this note we extend some of the results of a previous paper \url{arXiv:math/0511593} to algebraically closed fields of finite characteristic. In particular, we show that there is an explicit expression in $n$ and $d$ which is divisible…

A smooth scheme X over a field k of positive characteristic is said to be strongly liftable, if X and all prime divisors on X can be lifted simultaneously over W_2(k). In this paper, first we prove that smooth toric varieties are strongly…

Let A be an ample line bundle on a projective toric variety X of dimension n. We show that if l>=n-1+p, then A^l satisfies the property N_p. Applying similar methods, we obtain a combinatorial theorem: For a given lattice polytope P we give…

We show that any finite set S in a characteristic zero integral domain can be mapped to the finite field of order p, for infinitely many primes p, preserving all algebraic incidences in S. This can be seen as a generalization of the…

Let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic zero and $G$ be a finite group of automorphisms of projective plane over $\Bbbk$. Castelnuovo's criterion implies that the quotient of projective plane by $G$ is rational if the field $\Bbbk$ is…

We show that any hyperplane section of a variety which is the inverse image of a smooth variety of dimension at least 2 by an endomorphism (wich is not an automorphism) of the projective space, is linearly complete. We stress the case of…

In this paper we prove a conjecture of Bryant, Griffiths, and Yang concerning the characteristic variety for the determined isometric embedding system. In particular, we show that the characteristic variety is not smooth for any dimension…

We characterize 1-complemented subspaces of finite codimension in strictly monotone one-$p$-convex, $2<p<\infty,$ sequence spaces. Next we describe, up to isometric isomorphism, all possible types of 1-unconditional structures in sequence…

Let $X\subset P^n$ be a complex projective manifold of degree $d$ and arbitrary dimension. The main result of this paper gives a classification of such manifolds (assumed moreover to be connected, non-degenerate and linearly normal) in case…

We show that a projective variety with an int-amplified endomorphism of degree invertible in the base field satisfies Bott vanishing. This is a new way to analyze which varieties have nontrivial endomorphisms. In particular, we extend some…

I consider the class of surfaces $X$ over algebraically closed fields with numerical invariants given in the title. In characteristic zero, this class contains fake projective planes which were introduced by David Mumford. I prove that in…

We say a smooth projective surface $X$ satisfies the bounded cohomology property if there exists a positive constant $c_X$ such that $h^1(\mathcal O_X(C))\le c_Xh^0(\mathcal O_X(C))$ for every prime divisor $C$ on $X$. Let the closed Mori…

A differential analogue of the conjecture of Reichstein, Rogalski, and Zhang in algebraic dynamics is here established: if $X$ is a projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero which admits a global algebraic…

In this paper, we show that Severi varieties parameterizing irreducible reduced planar curves of a given degree and geometric genus are either empty or irreducible in any characteristic. Following Severi's original idea, this gives a new…

We define an "ample canonical height" for an endomorphism on a projective variety, which is essentially a generalization of the canonical heights for polarized endomorphisms introduced by Call--Silverman. We formulate a dynamical analogue…
