A non-trivial element of a group is a generalized torsion element if some products of its conjugates is the identity. The minimum number of such conjugates is called a generalized torsion order. We provide several restrictions for…

The quaternionic equations ax-xb=0 and ax-xb=c are investigated, which are called homogeneous and inhomogeneous Sylvester equations, respectively. Conditions for the existence of solutions are provided. In addition, the general and nonzero…

We study Calabi--Yau 3-folds with infinitely many divisorial contractions. We also suggest a method to describe Calabi--Yau 3-folds with the infinite automorphism group.

We classify Gorenstein stable numerical Godeaux surfaces with worse than canonical singularities and compute their fundamental groups.

In this paper, we will list up all the cases for the ray contractions of divisorial and fiber types for smooth projective varieties of dimension five. These are obtained as a corollary from the lists of n-dimensional k-th adjoint…

Let $\X$ be a resolving subcategory of an abelian category. In this paper we investigate the singularity category $\ds(\underline\X)=\db(\mod\underline\X)/\kb(\proj(\mod\underline\X))$ of the stable category $\underline\X$ of $\X$. We…

We investigate quantum periods and toric Landau-Ginzburg models under divisorial contractions of terminal Fano threefolds. Let $g:Y \rightarrow X$ be a divisorial contraction between $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial Fano threefolds with ordinary…

We compute some particular examples of cohomological Chow groups for varieties with isolated singularities. For higher-dimensional varieties, we compute the cohomological Chow groups of codimension one, provided that the dual complex…

In this article we describe our experiences with a parallel SINGULAR-implementation of the signature of a surface singularity defined by z^N+g(x,y)=0.

We study the systems of ordinary differential equations which are implicit with respect to the higher derivatives, appearing in the linear form, and their solutions near the singular points. The invertibility of the higher derivatives…

We extend the known classification of threefolds of general type that are complete intersections to various classes of non-complete intersections, and find other classes of polarised varieties, including Calabi-Yau threefolds with canonical…

In this article, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to the continuous coagulation equation with collisional breakage for a class of unbounded collision kernels and distribution function. The collision kernels and…

This paper introduces and studies a particular subclasses of the class of commutative rings with finite Gorenstein global (resp., weak) dimensions.

A singularity is said to be weakly-exceptional if it has a unique purely log terminal blow up. This is a natural generalization of the surface singularities of types $D_{n}$, $E_{6}$, $E_{7}$ and $E_{8}$. Since this idea was introduced,…

Let $C$ be a genus one nodal curve over a local artinian base and let $E$ be a proper subcurve of genus one. We define residues for curves over local artinian rings, then define generalized residues with values in line bundles over the…

We classify nonrational Fano threefolds $X$ with terminal Gorenstein singularities such that $\mathrm{\rk}\, \mathrm{\Pic}(X)=1$, $(-K_X)^3\ge 8$, and $\mathrm{\rk}\, \mathrm{\Cl}(X)\le 2$.

In this paper we prove that the Gorenstein cyclic quotient singularities of type \frac 1l (1,..., 1,l-(r-1)) with $l\geq r\geq 2$, have a \textit{unique}torus-equivariant projective, crepant, partial resolution, which is ``full'' iff either…

We explicitly construct a finite set of separating invariants for the basic $\Ga$-actions. These are the finite dimensional indecomposable rational linear representations of the additive group $\Ga$ of a field of characteristic zero, and…

Let C be a triangulated category with a Serre functor S and X a non-zero contravariantly finite rigid subcategory of C. Then X is cluster tilting if and only if the quotient category C/X is abelian and S(X)=X[2]. As an application, this…

We define a class $\mathcal{U}$ of solvable groups of finite abelian section rank which includes all such groups that are virtually torsion-free as well as those that are finitely generated. Assume that $G$ is a group in $\mathcal{U}$ and…
