Grothendieck conjectured in the sixties that the even Kunneth projector (with respect to a Weil cohomology theory) is algebraic and that the homological equivalence relation on algebraic cycles coincides with the numerical equivalence…
Let X be an algebraic curve over Q and t a non-constant Q-rational function on X such that Q(t) is a proper subfield of Q(X). For every integer n pick a point P_n on X such that t(P_n)=n. We conjecture that, for large N, among the number…
Let $X$ be a $n$-dimensional smooth projective variety and $L$ be an ample Cartier divisor on $X$. We conjecture that a very general element of the linear system $|K_X+(3n+1)L|$ is a hyperbolic algebraic variety. This conjecture holds for…
Using results of Hironaka-Matsumura and Faltings, we prove a strong version of the well known Fulton-Hansen connectivity theorem for weighted projective spaces. As a consequence we get the following result. If $Y$ is an irreducible…
We study the projective objects in an exact category naturally associated to a Coxeter system. We discuss an analog of the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture and show how it follows from a "genericity" conjecture and how the latter follows from a…
Let ${\mathcal E}$ be a holomorphic vector bundle on a complex manifold $X$ such that $\dim_{{\mathbb C}}X=n$. Given any continuous, basic Hochschild $2n$-cocycle $\psi_{2n}$ of the algebra ${\rm Diff}_n$ of formal holomorphic differential…
The main geometric result of this paper is that given any family of surfaces of general type f:X-->B, for sufficiently large n the fiber product X^n_B dominates a variety of general type. This result is especially interesting when it is…
Let $k$ be a field, $X$ a connected scheme proper over $k$, $D\subsetneq X$ an ample effective connected divisor, $x\in D(k)$. For Tannakian categories $\mathcal{C}_X$ and $\mathcal{C}_D$ whose objects consist of vector bundles on $X$ and…
We define a generalization of the Brauer group $\operatorname{H}_\mathrm{B}^{n}(X)$ for an equi-dimensional scheme $X$ and $n>0$. In the case where $X$ is the spectrum of a local ring of a smooth algebra over a discrete valuation ring,…
In this paper we generalize the classical Noether-Lefschetz Theorem to arbitrary smooth projective threefolds. Let $X$ be a smooth projective threefold over complex numbers, $L$ a very ample line bundle on $X$. Then we prove that there is a…
We generalize a formula due to Macdonald that relates the singular Betti numbers of $X^{n}/G$ to those of $X$, where $X$ is a compact manifold and $G$ is any subgroup of the symmetric group $S_{n}$ acting on $X^{n}$ by permuting…
We prove the following generalisation of Schauder's fixed point conjecture: Let $C_1,...,C_n$ be convex subsets of a Hausdorff topological vector space. Suppose that the $C_i$ are closed in $C=C_1\cup...\cup C_n$. If $f:C\to C$ is a…
We show that if $f:X\to B$ is a Lagrangian fibration from a compact connected K\"ahler hyperk\"ahler manifold $X$ onto a projective normal variety $B$, then $f$ is locally projective. This answers a question raised by L. Kamenova and…
Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective variety of dimension $d$. Under some assumption on the cohomology of $X$, we construct mutually orthogonal idempotents in $CH_d(X \times X) \otimes \Q$ whose action on algebraically trivial cycles…
Firstly we show a generalization of the (1,1)-Lefschetz theorem for projective toric orbifolds and secondly we prove that on 2k-dimensional quasi-smooth hypersurfaces coming from quasi-smooth intersection surfaces, under the Cayley trick,…
We show that if $X\subset\mathbb P^N_k$ is a normal variety of dimension $\geq 3$ and $H\subset\mathbb P^N_k$ a very general hypersurface of degree $d=4$ or $\geq 6$, then the restriction map $\mathrm{Cl}(X)\to\mathrm{Cl}(X\cap H)$ is an…
We present a conjecture in Diophantine geometry concerning the construction of line bundles over smooth projective varieties over $\bar{\mathbb Q}}$. This conjecture, closely related to the Grothendieck Period Conjecture for cycles of…
Contingent upon a conjecture of Buchweitz and Flenner, we prove the Lefschetz standard conjectures for 4d-dimensional projective varieties of generalized Kummer deformation type.
The Green-Griffiths-Lang conjecture stipulates that for every projective variety $X$ of general type over ${\mathbb C}$, there exists a proper algebraic subvariety of $X$ containing all non constant entire curves $f:{\mathbb C}\to X$. Using…
In this article, we consider regular projective arithmetic schemes in the context of Arakelov geometry, any of which is endowed with an action of the diagonalisable group scheme associated to a finite cyclic group and with an equivariant…
