We generalize Illusie's result to prove the decomposition of the de Rham complex with smooth horizontal coefficients for a semistable $S$-morphism $f:X\ra Y$ which is liftable over $\Z/p^2\Z$. As an application, we prove the Koll\'ar…

Let $V$ be a $G$-module where $G$ is a complex reductive group. Let $Z:=\quot VG$ denote the categorical quotient and let $\pi\colon V\to Z$ be the morphism dual to the inclusion $\O(V)^G\subset\O(V)$. Let $\phi\colon Z\to Z$ be an…

A smooth scheme X over a field k of positive characteristic is said to be strongly liftable, if X and all prime divisors on X can be lifted simultaneously over W_2(k). In this paper, first we prove that smooth toric varieties are strongly…

For a morphism $f : X \to Y$ of schemes, we give a tropical criterion for which points of $Y$ (valued in a field, discrete valuation ring, number ring, or Dedekind domain) lift to $X$. Our criterion extends the firmaments of Abramovich to a…

Let $X/k$ be a noetherian scheme over a field $k$ of characteristic 0, such that the residue field at its closed points are algebraic extensions of $k$. Let ${\mathfrak g}_{X/k}\subset T_{{X/k}}$ be an ${\mathcal O}_{X}$-submodule of the…

We prove a general categorical theorem that enables us to state that under certain conditions, the range of a functor is large. As an application, we prove various results of which the following is a prototype: If every diagram, indexed by…

We investigate categorical and amalgamation properties of the functor Idc assigning to every partially ordered abelian group G its semilattice of compact ideals Idc G. Our main result is the following. Theorem 1. Every diagram of finite…

The derivation $d_T$ on the exterior algebra of forms on a manifold $M$ with values in the exterior algebra of forms on the tangent bundle $TM$ is extended to multivector fields. These tangent lifts are studied with applications to the…

We study 3 basic questions about fundamental groups of algebraic varieties. For a morphism, is being surjective on $\pi_1$ preserved by base change? What is the connection between openness in the Zariski and in the Euclidean topologies?…

We extend the calculus of multiplicative vector fields and differential forms and their intrinsic derivatives from Lie groups to Lie groupoids; this generalization turns out to include also the classical process of complete lifting from…

Let S be the spectrum of a discrete valuation ring with function field K. Let X be a scheme over S. We will say that X is semi-factorial over S if each invertible sheaf on the generic fiber X_K can be extended to an invertible sheaf on X.…

A smooth scheme X over a field k of positive characteristic is said to be strongly liftable over W_2(k), if X and all prime divisors on X can be lifted simultaneously over W_2(k). In this paper, we first deduce the Kummer covering trick…

Let $f:X \to S$ be a projective morphism of noetherian schemes and let $L$ be an invertible sheaf on $X$. We show that the relative augmented base locus of $L$ coincides with the relative exceptional locus of $L$. We also prove a…

The sl_2-triples play a fundamental role for the structure theory of Lie algebras, and representation theory in general. Here we investigate sl_2-triples of global vector fields on schemes X in positive characteristics p>0, and develop a…

Let X be a minuscule Schubert variety and $\alpha$ a class of 1-cycle on X. In this article we describe the irreducible components of the scheme of morphisms of class $\alpha$ from a rational curve to X. The irreducible components are…

Supplementary comments about generalized Lie algebroids are presented and a new point of view over the construction of the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle of a (dual) vector bundle is introduced. Using the general theory of…

Given varieties $X, Y, W$ and dominant morphisms $\phi:X\to Y$ and $f:X\to W$ such that $f$ is constant on fibres of $\phi$ , we give sufficient conditions to guarantee that $f$ descends to a rational map or a morphism $Y\to W.$ We pay…

This paper has three objectives. First to recall the link between the classical Legendre-Fenschel transformation and a useful isomorphism between 1-jets of functions on a vector bundle and on its dual. As a particular consequence we obtain…

We prove that the Hilbert scheme of the plane in positive characteristic admits an invertible top differential form. This implies certain integrability properties of the symmetric powers of the plane. This allows to define a function on the…
