We consider the scheme $X_{r,d,n}$ parametrizing $n$ ordered points in projective space $\mathbb{P}^r$ that lie on a common hypersurface of degree $d$. We show that this scheme has a determinantal structure and we prove that it is…

We prove that if a standard determinantal scheme is level, then its h-vector is a log-concave pure O-sequence, and conjecture that the converse also holds. Among other cases, we prove the conjecture in codimension two, or when the entries…

We survey determinantal singularities, their deformations, and their topology. This class of singularities generalizes the well studied case of complete intersections in several different aspects, but exhibits a plethora of new phenomena…

Let $\phi$ be a generically surjective morphism between direct sums of line bundles on $\proj{n}$ and assume that the degeneracy locus, $X$, of $\phi$ has the expected codimension. We call $B_{\phi} = \ker \phi$ a (first) Buchsbaum-Rim…

This article studies the scheme structure of the jet schemes of determinantal varieties. We show that in general, these jet schemes are not irreducible. In the case of the determinantal variety $X$ of $r \times s$ matrices of rank at most…

Let X be a standard determinantal scheme X \subset \PP^n of codimension c, i.e. a scheme defined by the maximal minors of a t \times (t+c-1) homogeneous polynomial matrix A. In this paper, we study the main features of its normal sheaf…

We determine the number of ${\mathbb{F}}_q$-rational points of hyperplane sections of classical determinantal varieties defined by the vanishing of minors of a fixed size of a generic matrix, and identify sections giving the maximum number…

We extend the criterion of Kawatani and Okawa for indecomposability of the derived category of a smooth projective variety to arbitrary schemes. For relative schemes, we also give a criterion for the nonexistence of semiorthogonal…

We study (a generalization of) the notion of linked determinantal loci recently introduced by the second author, showing that as with classical determinantal loci, they are Cohen-Macaulay whenever they have the expected codimension. We…

The first part of this paper, written mainly for nonspecialists, is a short and partial survey about the construction and classification of nilpotent Cohen-Macaulay scheme structures on a scheme "less nilpotent"(e.g. a smooth variety) as…

In this note we present a notion of fundamental scheme for Cohen- Macaulay, order 1, irreducible congruences of lines. We show that such a congruence is formed by the k-secant lines to its fundamental scheme for a number k that we call the…

In this article we prove in the main theorem that, there is a bijection between the isomorphism classes of a certain type of real hyperplane arrangements on the one hand, and the antipodal pairs of convex cones of an associated…

The purpose of this paper is to show that functions that derivate the two-variable product function and one of the exponential, trigonometric or hyperbolic functions are also standard derivations. The more general problem considered is to…

A result of Beauville states that with a few positive characterstic exceptions, the smooth hyperplane sections of hypersurfaces of degree $d>2$ in projective space are not all isomorphic. We address the question of whether these sections…

We show that determinantal varieties defined by maximal minors of a generic matrix have a non-commutative desingularization, in that we construct a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module over such a variety whose endomorphism ring is Cohen-Macaulay…

A commutative local Cohen-Macaulay ring R of finite Cohen-Macaulay type is known to be an isolated singularity; that is, Spec(R)-m is smooth. This paper proves a non-commutative analogue. Namely, if A is a (non-commutative) graded AS…

We give a systematic approach to constructing non-reduced, locally Cohen-Macaulay schemes with reduced support a smooth projective variety. The hierarchy of such structures includes a lot of information about the underlying variety, its…

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, we give some concrete examples and properties of strongly…

The aim of this article is to prove that, under certain conditions, an affine flat normal scheme that is of finite type over a local Dedekind scheme in mixed characteristic admits infinitely many normal effective Cartier divisors. For the…

Can a smooth plane cubic be defined by the determinant of a square matrix with entries in linear forms in three variables? If we can, we say that it admits a linear determinantal representation. In this paper, we investigate linear…
