Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring, and let $C$ be a semidualizing $R$-module. In this paper, we study levels of bounded complexes of finitely generated $R$-modules with respect to the full subcategory $\mathsf{G}_{C}(R)$ consisting…

We show that $F$-purity deforms in local $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein rings of prime characteristic $p>0$. Furthermore, we show that $F$-purity is $\mathfrak{m}$-adically stable in local Cohen-Macaulay $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein rings.

By extending some basic results of Grothendieck and Foxby about local cohomology to commutative DG-rings, we prove new amplitude inequalities about finite DG-modules of finite injective dimension over commutative local DG-rings,…

A (normal) variety is Gorenstein if it is Cohen-Macualay and its canonical sheaf is a line bundle. This property, which measures the ``pathology'' of the singularities of a variety, is thus stronger than Cohen-Macualayness, but is also…

Let $X$ be a projective variety with log terminal singularities and vanishing augmented irregularity. In this paper we prove that if $X$ admits a relatively minimal genus one fibration then it does contain a subvariety of codimension one…

Tight closure test ideals have been central to the classification of singularities in rings of characteristic $p>0$, and via reduction to characteristic $p$, in equal characteristic zero as well. A summary of their properties and…

Given a Cohen-Macaulay scheme of klt type $X$ and a resolution $\pi\colon Y\to X$, we show that $R^1\pi_*\omega_Y=0$. We deduce that if $\mathrm{dim}(X)=3$, then $X$ satisfies Grauert-Riemenschneider vanishing and therefore has rational…

Let $f: X \rightarrow A$ be an abelian cover from a complex algebraic variety with quotient singularities to an abelian variety. We show that $f^*$ induces an isomorphism between the rational cohomology rings $H^\bullet(A, \mathbb{Q})$ and…

We discuss a particular class of rational Gorenstein singularities, which we call symplectic. A normal variety V has symplectic singularities if its smooth part carries a closed symplectic 2-form whose pull-back in any resolution X --> V…

Over a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, the minimal number of generators of a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module is bounded above by its multiplicity. In 1984 Ulrich asked whether there always exist modules for which equality holds; such modules are…

We generalize the concept of a cycle from graphs to simplicial complexes. We show that a simplicial cycle is either a sequence of facets connected in the shape of a circle, or is a cone over such a structure. We show that a simplicial tree…

We study several aspects of fillings for links of general quotient singularities using Floer theory, including co-fillings, Weinstein fillings, strong fillings, exact fillings and exact orbifold fillings, focusing on non-existence of exact…

Let $R$ be a finite ring with identity. The unit graph (unitary Cayley graph) of $R$ is the graph with vertex set $R$, where two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent exactly whenever $x+y$ is a unit in $R$ ($x-y$ is a unit in $R$).…

In this article we develop a new method to deal with maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over non-isolated surface singularities. In particular, we give a negative answer on an old question of Schreyer about surface singularities with only…

We conjecture an explicit formula for a cyclic analog of the Formality $L_{\infty}$-morphism [K]. We prove that its first Taylor component, the cyclic Hochschild-Kostant-Rosenberg map, is in fact a morphism (and a quasiisomorphism) of the…

We study holomorphic spheres in certain symplectic cobordisms and derive information about periodic Reeb orbits in the concave end of these cobordisms from the non-compactness of the relevant moduli spaces. We use this to confirm the strong…

We prove that the class of Gorenstein injective modules, $\mathcal{GI}$, is special precovering if and only if it is covering if and only if it is closed under direct limits. This adds to the list of examples that support Enochs'…

In this paper, we generalize the notion of rational singularities for any reflexive sheaf of rank $1$, link our notion of rational singularities with the notion of rational singularities in [Kov11], and prove generalizations of standard…

We show that the degrees of rational endomorphisms of very general complex Fano and Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces satisfy certain congruence conditions by specializing to characteristic p. As a corollary we show that very general n-dimensional…

In this paper, we prove some sufficient conditions for Cohen-Macaulay normal Rees algebras to be $F$-rational. Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Gorenstein normal local domain of dimension $d\geq 2$ and of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $I$ be a…
