Given an algebra $A$ over a differential field $K$, we study derivations on $A$ that are compatible with the derivation on $K$. There is a universal object, which is a twisted version of the usual module of differentials, and we establish…

We study the following geometry problem: given a $2^n-1$ dimensional vector $\pi=\{\pi_S\}_{S\subseteq [n], S\ne \emptyset}$, is there an object $T\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\log(\mathsf{vol}(T_S))= \pi_S$, for all $S\subseteq [n]$,…

A numerical equivalence class of k-cycles is said to be big if it lies in the interior of the closed cone generated by effective classes. We construct analogues for arbitrary cycle classes of the volume function for divisors which…

We study the relationship between the tensor product multiplicities of a compact semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a special function $\mathcal{J}$ associated to $\mathfrak{g}$, called the volume function. The volume function arises…

Inside the symmetric product of a very general curve, we consider the codimension-one subvarieties of symmetric tuples of points imposing exceptional secant conditions on linear series on the curve of fixed degree and dimension. We compute…

We work over strata of meromorphic differentials with poles of order 1, and on affine subspaces defined by linear conditions on the residues. We propose a definition of the volume of these objects as the integral of a tautological class on…

We provide new results of first-order necessary conditions of optimality problem in the form of John's theorem and in the form of Karush-Kuhn-Tucker's theorem. We establish our result in a topological vector space for problems with…

Using metric techniques introduced by Berndtsson, we show a result on constancy of families dominated by a constant variety and, on the opposite side, a result on the strong non isotriviality of certain families of surfaces with positive…

We investigate the positivity and extension of invertible sheaves on group homogeneous spaces over coherent bases. Bypassing the failure of standard limit arguments and the classical Weil--Cartier correspondence, we develop a valuative…

We introduce the volume function for hermitian invertible sheaves on an arithmetic variety as an analogue of the geometric volume function. The main result of this paper is the continuity of the arithmetic volume function. As a consequence,…

Motivated by the classical Theorems of Picard and Siegel and their generalizations, we define the notion of an {\it essentially large} effective divisor and derive some of its geometric and arithmetic consequences. We then prove that on a…

In this paper, we study the divisor theory of the Simpson moduli space of semistable sheaves of dimension 1 on the projective plane. We prove that these spaces are all Mori dream spaces, and calculate their nef cones. We also study the…

We show that nef cycle classes on smooth complete spherical varieties are effective, and the products of nef cycle classes are also nef. Let X be a smooth projective spherical variety such that its effective cycle classes of codimension k…

In this paper we study a notion of volume for Cartier divisors on arbitrary blow-ups of normal complex algebraic varieties of dimension greater than one, with a distinguished point. We apply this to study a volume for normal isolated…

The level of a function f on an n-dimensional space encloses a region. The volume of a region between two such levels depends on both levels. Fixing one of them the volume becomes a function of the remaining level. We show that if the…

Using currents with minimal singularities, we construct pointwise minimal multiplicities for a real pseudo-effective $(1,1)$-class $\alpha$ on a compact complex $n$-fold $X$, which are the local obstructions to the numerical effectivity of…

We give a B\'ezout type inequality for mixed volumes, which holds true for any convex bodies. The key ingredient is the reverse Khovanskii-Teissier inequality for convex bodies, which was obtained in our previous work and inspired by its…

We prove sharp bounds on the discriminants of stable rank two sheaves on surfaces in three-dimensional projective space. The key technical ingredient is to study them as torsion sheaves in projective space via tilt stability in the derived…

We prove the existence of minimizers for functionals defined over the class of convex domains contained inside a bounded set D of R^N and with prescribed volume. Some applications are given, in particular we prove that the eigenvalues of…
