Let X be a smooth projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field k. Nori constructed a category of vector bundles on X, called essentially finite vector bundles, which is reminiscent of the category of representations of the…

Let (X,L) be a quasi polarized pairs, i.e. X is a normal complex projective variety and L is a nef and big line bundle on it. We study, up to birational equivalence, the positivity (nefness) of the adjoint bundles K_X + rL for high rational…

Since the works of Krasnov and Scheiderer, there has been an interest in studying effective totally real divisors on a curve X defined over a real closed field, i.e., effective divisors supported on the real locus. Scheiderer proved that,…

Kleiman's criterion states that, for $X$ a projective scheme, a divisor $D$ is ample if and only if it pairs positively with every non-zero element of the closure of the cone of curves. In other words, the cone of ample divisors in $N^1(X)$…

Let $X$ be a product of smooth projective curves over a finite unramified extension $k$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. Suppose that the Albanese variety of $X$ has good reduction and that $X$ has a $k$-rational point. We propose the following…

Given a canonical algebraically integrable foliation on a klt projective variety, we study the variation of the ample models of the associated adjoint foliated structures with respect to the parameter. When the foliation is of general type,…

Suppose that $X$ is a projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Further suppose that $L$ is an ample (or more generally in some sense positive) divisor. We study a natural linear system in $|K_X + L|$.…

Let X be a smooth, projective variety over the field of complex numbers. Here we focus on a conjecture attributed to Shigefumi Mori, which claims that X is uniruled if and only if the Kodaira dimension of X is negative.

Let $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^N$ be a non-degenerate normal projective variety of codimension $e$ and degree $d$ with isolated $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein singularities. We prove that the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity…

It is well-known that the associated analytic space of an affine variety defined over $\mathbb{C}$ is Stein but the converse is not true, that is, an algebraic Stein variety is not necessarily affine. In this paper, we give sufficient and…

Let $M$ be a smooth complex projective toric variety equipped with an action of a torus $T$, such that the complement $D$ of the open $T$--orbit in $M$ is a simple normal crossing divisor. Let $G$ be a complex reductive affine algebraic…

Theorem: If W is a smooth complex projective variety with h^1 (O-script_W) = 0, then a sufficiently ample smooth divisor X on W cannot be a hyperplane section of a Calabi-Yau variety, unless W is itself a Calabi-Yau. Corollary: A smooth…

A complex algebraic variety X defined over the real numbers is called an M-variety if the sum of its Betti numbers (for homology with closed supports and coefficients in Z/2) coincides with the corresponding sum for the real part of X. It…

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety with only klt singularities, and $L_X$ a strictly nef $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor on $X$. In this paper, we study the singular version of Serrano's conjecture, i.e., the ampleness of $K_X+t L_X$ for…

Let $X$ be a projective manifold of dimension $n$ and $L$ a strictly nef line bundle on $X$. Then $K_X+tL$ is ample if $t > n+1$ in the following cases. 1.) $\text{dim} X = 3$ unless (possibly) $X$ is a Calabi-Yau with $c_2 \cdot L=0$; 2.)…

In this short note, we will show the following weak evidence of S. Lang conjecture over function fields. Let f : X ---> Y be a projective and surjective morphism of algebraic varieties over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic…

If $X$ is a smooth complex projective 3-fold with ample canonical divisor $K$, then the inequality $K^3\ge {2/3}(2p_g-7)$ holds, where $p_g$ denotes the geometric genus. This inequality is nearly sharp. We also give similar, but more…

We prove that in characteristic zero the multiplication of sections of dominant line bundles on a complete symmetric variety $X=\bar{G/H}$ is a surjective map. As a consequence the cone defined by a complete linear system over $X$, or over…

We prove that the irreducible components of the characteristic varieties of quasi-projective manifolds are either pull-backs of such components for orbifolds, or torsion points. This gives an interpretation for the so-called…

Let $X$ be a $n$-dimensional smooth projective variety and $L$ be an ample Cartier divisor on $X$. We conjecture that a very general element of the linear system $|K_X+(3n+1)L|$ is a hyperbolic algebraic variety. This conjecture holds for…
