Given a reduced analytic space $Y$ we introduce a class of {\it nice} cycles, including all effective $\mathbb{Q}$-Cartier divisors. Equidimensional nice cycles that intersect properly allow for a natural intersection product. Using…
Let $Y$ be an effective Cartier divisor of a smooth variety $Z$. Let $X_{i}$, $i\in \{1,\cdots,n\}$ be a set of pairwise disjoint smooth subvarieties in $Y$ such that their union contains the singular locus of $Y$. In this paper, we give a…
In this paper, we apply incidence divisors constructed through Archimedean height paring to prove that Griffiths' conjecture on incidence equivalence is correct for a smooth projective variety with first non-vanishing cohomology. (Incidence…
For an algebraic (n-1)-cycle Z on a complex projective (2n-1)-manifold X, P. Griffiths conjectured that, if Z is algebraically equivalent to zero and if the incidence divisor of Z on every family of (n-1)-cycles is principal, then the…
In the paper \cite{Lau16}, it was shown that the restriction of a pseudoeffective divisor $D$ to a subvariety $Y$ with nef normal bundle is pseudoeffective. Assuming the normal bundle is ample and that $D|_Y$ is not big, we prove that the…
A cycle cover of a bridgeless graph $G$ is a collection of simple cycles in $G$ such that each edge $e$ appears on at least one cycle. The common objective in cycle cover computation is to minimize the total lengths of all cycles. Motivated…
We describe a systematic way of constructing effective divisors on the moduli space of stable curves of genus g having exceptionally small slope. We prove that any divisor on \bar{M}_g consisting of curves failing a certain Green-Lazarsfeld…
We analyze a three-dimensional discontinuous piecewise linear system \(Z=(X,Y)\) whose switching manifold \(\Sigma\) contains visible-visible two-fold intersection lines. Assuming that the matrices \(DX\) and \(DY\) each have one nonzero…
In earlier work, the author described various stratification conditions for a complex analytic set X in terms of the theory of integral closure of modules. However, even if an analytic set has a reduced structure, often geometric operations…
Given a Q-Cartier divisor $S \subset X$ admitting a fibration $S \rightarrow B$ onto a curve we give sufficient conditions for the existence of a bimeromorphic contraction contracting S onto B. As a corollary we recover a contraction result…
We describe a sequence of effective divisors on the Hurwitz space $H_{d,g}$ for $d$ dividing $g-1$ and compute their cycle classes on a partial compactification. These divisors arise from vector bundles of syzygies canonically associated to…
This paper addresses the problem of constructing a cycle-level intersection theory for toric varieties. We show that by making one global choice, we can determine a cycle representative for the intersection of an equivariant Cartier divisor…
We investigate the viability of defining an intersection product on algebraic cycles on a singular algebraic variety by pushing forward intersection products formed on a resolution of singularities. For varieties with resolutions having a…
We carry out a detailed intersection theoretic analysis of the Deligne-Mumford compactification of the divisor on M_{10} consisting of curves sitting on K3 surfaces. This divisor is not of classical Brill-Noether type, and is known to give…
We introduce a class of normal complex spaces having only mild sin-gularities (close to quotient singularities) for which we generalize the notion of a (analytic) fundamental class for an analytic cycle and also the notion of a relative…
A recent result by Kardo\v{s}, M\'a\v{c}ajov\'a and Zerafa [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. B. 160 (2023) 1--14] related to the famous Berge-Fulkerson conjecture implies that given an arbitrary set of odd pairwise edge-disjoint cycles, say $\mathcal…
Consider a space X with the singular locus, Z=Sing(X), of positive dimension. Suppose both Z and X are locally complete intersections. The transversal type of X along Z is generically constant but at some points of Z it degenerates. We…
We compute divisors class groups of singular surfaces. Most notably we produce an exact sequence that relates the Cartier divisors and almost Cartier divisors of a surface to the those of its normalization. This generalizes Hartshorne's…
For a prime p and base b, the digit function delta(r) = floor(br/p) partitions the residues {1, ..., p-1} into b contiguous bins. The collision count C(g) records how many residues share a bin with their image under multiplication by g. We…
For a smooth projective variety $P$, we construct a Cartier divisor supported on the incidence locus in $\mathscr{C}_a (P) \times \mathscr{C}_{\dim(P)-a-1}(P)$. There is a natural definition of the corresponding line bundle on a product of…
