In this short note, we determine the Kodaira dimension and some of the plurigenera of (a desingularization of) a symmetric power of a smooth projective variety. We use it to obtain bounds on the genus of curve passing through a fixed number…

We confirm Beauville's conjecture that claims that if the p-th exterior power of the tangent bundle of a smooth projective variety contains the p-th power of an ample line bundle, then the variety is either the projective space or the…

In this paper we extend the properties of ordinary points of curves [10] to ordinary closed points of one-dimensional affine reduced schemes and then to ordinary subvarieties of codimension one.

We give a sufficient condition in order that $n$ closed connected subsets in the $n$-dimensional real projective space admit a common multitangent hyperplane.

We establish an effective version of Schmidt's subspace theorem on a smooth projective variety $\mathcal{X}$ over function fields of characteristic zero for hypersurfaces located in m-subgeneral position with respect to $\mathcal{X}$. Our…

A surface $\Sigma \subset S^5 \subset \mathbb{C}^3$ is called \emph{special Legendrian} if the cone $0 \times \Sigma \subset \mathbb{C}^3$ is special Lagrangian. The purpose of this paper is to propose a general method toward constructing…

Assuming Hartshorne's conjecture on complete intersections, we classify projective bundles over projective spaces which has a smooth blow up structure over another projective space. Under some assumptions, we also classify projective…

We exhibit a class of extendable codimension $2$ subvarieties in a general hypersurface of dimension at least $4$ in projective space. As a consequence, we prove that a general hypersurface of degree $d$ and dimension at least $4$ does not…

In this article, we introduce a new approach to show the existence and smoothing of simple normal crossing varieties in a given projective space. Our approach relates the above to the existence of nowhere reduced schemes called ribbons and…

We prove that every geometrically reduced projective variety of pure dimension n over a field of positive characteristic admits a morphism to projective n-space, etale away from the hyperplane H at infinity, which maps a chosen divisor into…

It is shown that non-negative Legendrian isotopy defines a partial order on the universal cover of the Legendrian isotopy class of the fibre of the spherical cotangent bundle of any manifold. This result is applied to Lorentz geometry in…

This paper presents an algorithm to deform any Legendrian singularity to a nearby Legendrian subvariety with singularities of a simple combinatorial nature. Furthermore, the category of microlocal sheaves on the original Legendrian…

We reduce Iitaka's subadditivity conjecture for the logarithmic Kodaira dimension to a special case of the generalized abundance conjecture by establishing an Iitaka type inequality for Nakayama's numerical Kodaira dimension. Our proof…

It is proven that any structure of a fibre space into varieties of Kodaira dimension zero on a generic Fano complete intersection of index one and dimension $M$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$ for $M\geq 2k+1$ is a pencil of hyperplane sections. We…

Schubert varieties of hyperplane arrangements, also known as matroid Schubert varieties, play an essential role in the proof of the Dowling-Wilson conjecture and in Kazhdan-Lusztig theory for matroids. We study these varieties as…

In this paper, we show that if $X$ is a smooth variety of general type of dimension $m \geq 2$, for which its canonical map induces a double cover onto $Y$, where $Y$ is a projective bundle over $\mathbf P^1$, or onto a projective space or…

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…

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.

We develop a moduli theory of algebraic varieties and pairs of non-negative Kodaira dimension. We define stable minimal models and construct their projective coarse moduli spaces under certain natural conditions. This can be applied to a…

We study subvarieties of a general projective degree $d$ hypersurface $X_d\subset \mathbf P^n$. Our main theorem, which improves previous results of L. Ein and C. Voisin, implies in particular the following sharp corollary: any subvariety…
