Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$ and let $\mathcal{L}$ be a nef line bundle defined over $k$. We prove that if $x\in X$ is a $k$-rational point then the Seshadri constant $\epsilon(X,…

We provide a lower bound on the degree of curves of the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$ passing through the centers of a divisorial valuation $\nu$ of $\mathbb{P}^2$ with prescribed multiplicities, and an upper bound for the Seshadri-type…

We prove new results on single point Seshadri constants for ample line bundles on hyperelliptic surfaces. Given a hyperelliptic surface $X$ and an ample line bundle $L$ on $X$, we show that the least Seshadri constant $\varepsilon(L)$ of…

We develop a local positivity theory for movable curves on projective varieties similar to the classical Seshadri constants of nef divisors. We give analogues of the Seshadri ampleness criterion, of a characterization of the augmented base…

Let $X$ be a projective surface and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. The global Seshadri constant $\varepsilon(L)$ of $L$ is defined as the infimum of Seshadri constants $\varepsilon(L,x)$ as $x\in X$ varies. It is an interesting…

Given a nef and big line bundle $L$ on a projective variety $X$ of dimension $d \geq 2$, we prove that the Seshadri constant of $L$ at a very general point is larger than $(d+1)^{\frac{1}{d}-1}$. This slightly improves the lower bound $1/d$…

Let $\pi: X_r \rightarrow \mathbb P^2$ be a blow up of $\mathbb P^2$ at $r$ distinct points $p_1,p_2,\dots, p_r$. We study lower bounds for Seshadri constants of ample line bundles on $X_r$. First, we consider the case when the points lie…

Let $L$ be a nef line bundle on a smooth complex projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$. Demailly has introduced a very interesting invariant --- the Seshadri constant $\epsilon(L,x)$ --- which in effect measures how positive $L$ is…

We prove a weak version of a conjecture of Matsushita saying that for a Lagrangian fibration on a hyper-Kaehler manifold $X$, the moduli map for the fibers is either generically of maximal rank or constant. Assuming the base is smooth and…

Let $X^n_{r,s}$ denote the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^n$ along $r$ general lines and $s$ general points. In this paper, we focus on $l$-very ample line bundles on $X^n_{0,s}$ and investigate their Seshadri constants with some restrictions on…

Nagata has conjectured that the following statement (N_r) holds for all $r\geq 10$: (N_r) if $P_1,...P_r \in {\mathbb P}^2$ are generic points then any plane curve $C$ satisfies $\sum_1^r mult_{P_i}(C)\leq \sqrt{r} deg(C)$. Nagata proved…

We prove an analogue in higher dimensions of the classical Narasimhan-Seshadri theorem for strongly stable vector bundles of degree 0 on a smooth projective variety $X$ with a fixed ample line bundle $\Theta$. As applications, over fields…

In this note, we continue the study of Seshadri constants on blow-ups of Hirzebruch surfaces initiated in arXiv:2312.14555. Now we consider blow-ups of ruled surfaces more generally. We propose a conjecture for classifying all the negative…

Let $X_r$ denote the blow-up of the hyperelliptic surface $X$ at $r$ very general points. In this paper, we first provide a criterion for the ampleness of a line bundle on $X_r$ and compare it with an existing result. We then study the…

In previous work, the authors established a generalized version of Schmidt's subspace theorem for closed subschemes in general position in terms of Seshadri constants. We extend our theorem to weighted sums involving closed subschemes in…

This paper studies the Seshadri constant of an ample line bundle at a very general point, seeking a very slight improvement on the result of Ein, Kuchle, and Lazarsfeld. The main point is that couting jets more carefully yields a better…

Let $X = \mathbb{P}(E_1) \times_C \mathbb{P}(E_2)$ where $C$ is a smooth curve and let $E_1$, $E_2$ be vector bundles over $C$. In this paper, we extend the results in \cite{K-M-R} by computing the nef cone of $X$ without restriction on the…

Prompted by results of Guardo, Van Tuyl and the second author for lines in projective 3 space, we develop asymptotic upper bounds for the least degree of a homogeneous form vanishing to order at least m on a union of disjoint r dimensional…

In this article, we give a description of the closed cone of curves of the projective bundle $\mathbb{P}(E)$ over a smooth projective variety $X$. Using duality, we then calculate the nef cone of divisors in $\mathbb{P}(E)$ over some…

Let $X$ be a smooth variety and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. If $\pi^{alg}_{1}(X)$ is large, we show that the Seshadri constant $\epsilon(p^{*}L)$ can be made arbitrarily large by passing to a finite \'etale cover…
