Improved local and global versions of the effective Nullstellensatz for ideal sheaves on non-singular complex varieties are obtained, based on a new invariant motivated by the notion of finite type from the theory of several complex…
In this paper, we study the singularities of a pair (X,Y) in arbitrary characteristic via jet schemes. For a smooth variety X in characteristic 0, Ein, Lazarsfeld and Mustata showed that there is a correspondence between irreducible closed…
We study a useful numerical invariant of normal surface singularities, introduced recently by T. Kawachi. Using this invariant, we give a quick proof of the (well-known) fact that all log-canonical surface singularities are either elliptic…
We generalize two classical formulas for complete intersection curves by introducing the the complete intersection discrepancy of a curve as a correction term. The first is a well-known multiplicity formula in singularity theory, due to…
For $m \in \mathbb{N}$, we determine the irreducible components of the $m$-th Jet Scheme of a complex branch $C$ and give formulas for their number $N(m)$ and for their codimensions, in terms of $m$ and the generators of the semigroup of…
Jet measurements in heavy ion collisions at low jet momentum can provide constraints on the properties of the quark gluon plasma but are overwhelmed by a significant, fluctuating background. We build upon our previous work which…
The objective of this paper is to discuss invariants of singularities of algebraic schemes over fields of positive characteristic, and to show how they yield the simplification of singularities. We focus here on invariants which arise in an…
The main goal of this paper is to prove the Schmidt--Kolchin conjecture. This conjecture says the following: the vector space of degree \(d\) differentially homogeneous polynomials in \((N+1)\) variables is of dimension \((N+1)^{d}\). Next,…
Determinantal varieties are important objects of study in algebraic geometry. In this paper, we will investigate them using the jet scheme approach. We have found a new connection for the Hilbert series between a determinantal variety and…
Given an arbitrary projective birational morphism of varieties, we provide a natural and explicit way of constructing relative compactifications of the maps induced on the main components of the jet schemes. In the case the morphism is the…
Let X be a smooth complex variety and Y be a closed subvariety of X, or more generally, a closed subscheme of X. We are interested in invariants attached to the singularities of the pair (X, Y). We discuss various methods to construct such…
In this note we prove a more general (and topological) version of Gr\"unbaum's conjecture about affine invariant points. As an application of our result we show that, if we consider the action of the group of similarities, Gr\"unbaum's…
Using an alternate description of support varieties of pairs of modules over a complete intersection, we give several new applications of such varieties, including results for support varieties of intermediate complete intersections.…
Studying the substructure of jets has become a powerful tool for event discrimination and for studying QCD. Typically, jet substructure studies rely on Monte Carlo simulation for vetting their usefulness; however, when possible, it is also…
For $m\in \IN, m\geq 1,$ we determine the irreducible components of the $m-th$ jet scheme of a toric surface $S.$ For $m$ big enough, we connect the number of a class of these irreducible components to the number of exceptional divisors on…
The minimal log discrepancy is an invariant of singularities that plays an important role in the birational classification of algebraic varieties. Shokurov conjectured that the minimal log discrepancy can always be bounded from above in…
The goal of this paper is a classification theorem of the singularities according to a new invariant, Mather discrepancy. On the other hand, we show some evidences convincing us that Mather discrepancy is a considerable invariant: By…
For real toric surfaces and conjugation invariant point conditions with all conjugate pairs on the boundary divisors, we prove that the signed count of real curves of arbitrary genus in the linear system through the given points is…
Invariant mass spectra for jets reconstructed using the anti-kt and Cambridge-Aachen algorithms are studied for different jet "grooming" techniques in data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5 inverse femtobarns, recorded with the…
We show how for every integer n one can explicitly construct n distinct plane quartics and one hyperelliptic curve over the complex numbers all of whose Jacobians are isomorphic to one another as abelian varieties without polarization. When…
