We initiate the study of Nash blowups in prime characteristic. First, we show that a normal variety is non-singular if and only if its Nash blowup is an isomorphism, extending a theorem by A. Nobile. We also study higher Nash blowups, as…

Any Lie algebroid $A$ admits a Nash-type blow-up $\mathrm{Nash}(A)$ that sits in a nice short exact sequence of Lie algebroids $0\rightarrow K\rightarrow \mathrm{Nash}(A)\rightarrow \mathcal{D}\rightarrow 0$ with $K$ a Lie algebra bundle…

We prove that the higher Nash blowup of a normal toric variety defined over a field of positive characteristic is an isomorphism if and only if it is non-singular. We also extend a result by R. Toh-Yama which shows that higher Nash blowups…

We initiate the study of the resolution of singularities properties of Nash blowups over fields of prime characteristic. We prove that the iteration of normalized Nash blowups desingularizes normal toric surfaces. We also introduce a prime…

In this paper we show that iterating (non-normalized) Nash blowups does not necessarily resolve the singularities of algebraic varieties of dimension three over fields of characteristic zero.

We show that the Nash blowup of 2-generic determinantal varieties over fields of positive characteristic is non-singular. We prove this in two steps. Firstly, we explicitly describe the toric structure of such varieties. Secondly, we show…

The higher Nash blowup of an algebraic variety replaces singular points with limits of certain spaces carrying higher-order data associated to the variety at non-singular points. In this note we will define a higher-order Jacobian matrix…

Let I be an m-primary ideal of a one-dimensional, analytically irreducible and residually rational local Noetherian domain R. Given the blowing-up of R along I we establish connections between the type-sequence of R and classical invariants…

The higher Nash blowup of an algebraic variety replaces singular points with limits of certain spaces carrying higher order data associated to the variety at non-singular points. In the case of normal toric varieties we give a combinatorial…

For each non-negative integer $n$, we define the $n$-th Nash blowup of an algebraic variety, and call them all higher Nash blowups. When $n=1$, it coincides with the classical Nash blowup. We study higher Nash blowups of curves in detail…

We construct a series of blowups $(\widetilde M_i,\pi_i)_{i\in \mathbb N_0}$ of a singular foliation by applying to the universal Lie $\infty$-algebroid of a singular foliation the so-called Nash modification. For $i=0$, we recover a blowup…

As the first step for approaching the uniqueness and blowup properties of the solutions of the stochastic wave equations with multiplicative noise, we analyze the conditions for the uniqueness and blowup properties of the solution…

Let X be an analytic vector field defined in a real analytic manifold of dimension three. We prove that all the singularities of X can be made elementary by a finite number of blowing-ups in the ambient space. New version: Some misprints…

The Nash blowing-up (or modification) of an algebraic variety $X$ is a canonical process that produces a proper, birational morphism $\pi : X' \to X$ of varieties. It is expected that the singularities of $X'$ will be better than those of…

We study different notions of blow-up of a scheme X along a subscheme Y, depending on the datum of an embedding of X into an ambient scheme. The two extremes in this theory are the ordinary blow-up, corresponding to the identity, and the…

We consider the semilinear wave equation with power nonlinearity in one space dimension. We first show the existence of a blow-up solution with a characteristic point. Then, we consider an arbitrary blow-up solution $u(x,t)$, the graph…

In this paper we show that iterating Nash blowups or normalized Nash blowups does not resolve the singularities of algebraic varieties of dimension four or higher over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic.

This article shall serve as a quick reference for somebody who needs precise information on concepts and results related to resolution of singularities. As such, it is more a technical manual than a bedtime story. Topics which are covered:…

In an earlier paper (D. S. Keeler, D. Rogalski, and J. T. Stafford, ``Naive noncommutative blowing up,'' Duke Math. J., 126 (2005), 491-546), we defined and investigated the properties of the naive blowup of an integral projective scheme X…

We study submodules of analytic Hilbert modules defined over certain algebraic varieties in bounded symmetric domains, the so-called Jordan-Kepler varieties $V_\ell$ of arbitrary rank $\ell.$ For $\ell>1$ the singular set of $V_\ell$ is not…
