We adapt ideas from Ekedahl [Eke84] to prove a Serre-type duality for Witt-divisorial sheaves of $\mathbb Q$-Cartier divisors on a smooth projective variety over a perfect field of finite characteristic. We also explain its relationship to…

We study canonical filtrations of finite-dimensional associative algebras and Lie algebras. These filtrations are defined via optimal destabilizing one-parameter subgroups in the sense of geometric invariant theory (GIT), and appear to be a…

We make precise conjectures relating the genus zero Gromov-Witten theory of a nonabelian GIT quotient X//G to that of the associated abelian quotient X//T by a maximal torus T in G.These conjectures imply in particular closed formulas for…

We show that for any integer n and any field k of characteristic different from 2 there are at most finitely many isomorphism classes of quadratic morphisms from the projective line over k to itself with a finite postcritical orbit of size…

We consider a class of foliations on the complex projective plane that are determined by a quadratic vector field in a fixed affine neighborhood. Such foliations, as a rule, have an invariant line at infinity. Two foliations with…

Let $f: Y\to X$ be a morphism between smooth complex quasi-projective varieties and $Z$ be the closure of $f(Y)$ with $\iota: Z\to X$ the inclusion map. We prove that a. for any field $K$, there exist finitely many semisimple…

In this article we briefly discuss the finite generation of fiber rings of invariant k-jets of holomorphic curves in a complex projective manifold, using differential Galois theory.

Let $K$ be the function field of a smooth curve over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $X$ be a scheme, which is smooth and projective over $K$. Suppose that the cotangent bundle $\Omega_{X/K}$ is ample. Let $R:={\rm Zar}(X)(K)\cap X)$…

In part I we reduced the arithmetic (characteristic zero) version of the P \not \subseteq NP conjecture to the problem of showing that a variety associated with the complexity class NP cannot be embedded in the variety associated the…

A linear system of real quadratic forms defines a real projective variety. The real non-singular locus of this variety (more precisely of the underlying scheme) has a highly connected double cover as long as each non-zero form in the system…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety with a faithful $G$-action, and $Y$ be a resolution of singularities of $X/G$. Larsen and Lunts asked whether $[X/G]-[Y]$ is divisible by $[\mathbb{A}^1]$ in the…

The paper deals with the projective line over the finite factor ring $R\_{\clubsuit} \equiv$ GF(2)[$x$]/$<x^{3} - x>$. The line is endowed with 18 points, spanning the neighbourhoods of three pairwise distant points. As $R\_{\clubsuit}$ is…

We introduce a notion of Homological Projective Duality for smooth algebraic varieties in dual projective spaces, a homological extension of the classical projective duality. If algebraic varieties $X$ and $Y$ in dual projective spaces are…

We study orientifold projections of families of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ toric quiver gauge theories. We restrict to quivers that have the unusual property of being associated with multiple periodic planar diagrams which give rise,…

This paper applies the decomposition theorem in intersection cohomology to geometric invariant theory quotients, relating the intersection cohomology of the quotient to that of the semistable points for the action. Suppose a connected…

Derived equivalences and t-structures are closely related. We use realisation functors associated to t-structures in triangulated categories to establish a derived Morita theory for abelian categories with a projective generator or an…

Generalized Cox's construction associates with an algebraic variety a remarkable invariant -- its total coordinate ring, or Cox ring. In this note we give a new proof of factoriality of the Cox ring when the divisor class group of the…

We study the GKM theory for a equivariant stratified space having orbifold structures in tis successive quotients. Then, we introduce the notion of an \emph{almost simple polytope}, as well as a \emph{divisive toric variety} generalizing…

For a complex projective manifold Gromov-Witten invariants can be constructed either algebraically or symplectically. Using the versions of Gromov-Witten theory by Behrend and Fantechi on the algebraic side and by the author on the…

We study smooth projective varieties with small dual variety using methods from symplectic topology. We prove the affine parts of such varieties are subcritical, and that the hyperplane class is invertible in their quantum cohomology. We…
