We prove a generalization of the Shapiro-Shapiro conjecture on Wronskians of polynomials, allowing the Wronskian to have complex conjugate roots. We decompose the real Schubert cell according to the number of real roots of the Wronski map,…
We study birational maps among 1) the moduli space of semistable torsion sheaves of Hilbert polynomial $4m+2$ on a smooth quadric surface, 2) the moduli space of semistable torsion sheaves of Hilbert polynomial $m^{2}+3m+2$ on…
We show that, for a pseudo-proper smooth noetherian formal scheme $\mathfrak{X}$ over a positive characteristic $p$ field, its truncated De Rham complex up to the characteristic $p$ is decomposable. Moreover, if the dimension of…
Let $M$ be strongly minimal and constructed by a `Hrushovski construction'. If the Hrushovski algebraization function $\mu$ is in a certain class ${\mathcal T}$ ($\mu$ triples) we show that for independent $I$ with $|I| >1$, ${\rm…
An ideal is a nonempty collection of subsets closed under heredity and finite additivity. The aim of this paper is to unify some weak separation properties via topological ideals. We concentrate our attention on the separation axioms…
For a normal F-finite variety $X$ and a boundary divisor $\Delta$ we give a uniform description of an ideal which in characteristic zero yields the multiplier ideal, and in positive characteristic the test ideal of the pair $(X,\Delta)$.…
Let $\mathcal{Z(R)}$ be the set of zero divisor elements of a commutative ring $R$ with identity and $\mathcal{M}$ be the space of minimal prime ideals of $R$ with Zariski topology. An ideal $I$ of $R$ is called strongly dense ideal or…
Let R be a polynomial ring and M a finitely generated graded R-module of maximal grade (which means that the ideal I_t(\cA) generated by the maximal minors of a homogeneous presentation matrix, \cA, of M has maximal codimension in R).…
We introduce in a reduced complex space, a "new coherent sub-sheaf" of the sheaf $\omega\_{X}^{\bullet}$ which has the "universal pull-back property" for any holomorphic map, and which is in general bigger than the usual sheaf of…
Given a resolution of rational singularities $\pi\colon \tilde{X} \to X$ over a field of characteristic zero we use a Hodge-theoretic argument to prove that the image of the functor $\mathbf{R}\pi_*\colon \mathbf{D}(\tilde{X}) \to…
We give two explicit versions of the decomposition theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne applied to the universal family of quartic surfaces of $\mathbb{P}^3$. The starting point of our investigation is the remark that the nodes of a…
Consider the functor describing deformations of a representation of the fundamental group of a variety X. This paper is chiefly concerned with establishing an analogue in finite characteristic of a result proved by Goldman and Millson for…
Let $Y$ be a complex projective variety of dimension $n$ with isolated singularities, $\pi:X\to Y$ a resolution of singularities, $G:=\pi^{-1}{\rm{Sing}}(Y)$ the exceptional locus. From Decomposition Theorem one knows that the map…
We prove that any noetherian quasi-excellent scheme of characteristic zero admits a strong desingularization which is functorial with respect to all regular morphisms. We show that as an easy formal consequence of this result one obtains…
Let $\pi\cln X\to \Delta^m$ be a proper smooth K\"ahler morphism from a complex manifold $X$ to the unit polydisc $\Delta^m$. Suppose the fibers over the complement of a proper analytic subset are biholomorphic to a fixed projective…
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…
Let $X/K$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a number field, and let $f:X\to{X}$ be a morphism defined over $K$. We formulate a number of statements of varying strengths asserting, roughly, that if there is at least one point…
The Pila-Wilkie theorem states that if a set $X\subseteq \mathbb R^n$ is definable in an o-minimal structure $\mathcal R$ and contains `many' rational points, then it contains an infinite semialgebraic set. In this paper, we extend this…
The graded coherent sheaf $\alpha_X^\bullet$ constructed in [B.18] for any reduced pure dimensional complex space $X$ is stable by exterior product but not by the de Rham differential. We construct here a new graded coherent sheaf…
Given an embedded smooth projective variety Y in CP^n, we show how the existence of a hypersurface with high multiplicity along Y, but of relatively low degree and log canonical near Y implies vanishing of higher cohomology for certain…
