This paper is about the relation of the geometry of Lie groupoids over a fixed compact manifold and the geometry of their (infinite-dimensional) bisection Lie groups. In the first part of the paper we investigate the relation of the…

In this paper, we prove the following "Weak Bounded Negativity Conjecture", which says that given a complex smooth projective surface $X$, for any reduced curve $C$ in $X$ and integer $g$, assume that the geometric genus of each component…

We discuss properties of complex algebraic orbifold groups, their characteristic varieties, and their abelian covers. In particular, we deal with the question of (quasi)-projectivity of orbifold groups. We also prove a structure theorem for…

We give sufficient conditions for the semisimplicity of quantum cohomology of Fano varieties of Picard rank 1. We apply these techniques to prove new semisimplicity results for some Fano varieties of Picard rank 1 and large index. We also…

We give a class of examples of vector bundles on a relative smooth projective curve over Spec Z such that for infinitely many prime reductions the bundle has a Frobenius descent, but the restriction to the generic fiber in characteristic…

The main goal of this paper is to introduce the notion of a primitive form for a generic family of Hurwitz covers of $\mathbb{P}^1$ with a fixed ramification profile over infinity. We prove that primitive forms are in one-to-one…

We exhibit basic algebro-geometric results on the formal model of semi-infinite flag varieties and its Schubert varieties over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb K$ of characteristic $\neq 2$ from scratch. We show that the formal model…

We establish birational superrigidity for a large class of singular projective Fano hypersurfaces of index one. In the special case of isolated singularities, our result applies for instance to: (1) hypersurfaces with semi-homogeneous…

A long-standing conjecture of Farrell and Zdravkovska and independently S.~T.~Yau states that every almost flat manifold is the boundary of a compact manifold. This paper gives a simple proof of this conjecture when the holonomy group is…

We derive explicit universal equations for primary Gromov-Witten invariants by applying Getzler's genus one relation to quantum powers of Euler vector field. As an application, we provide some evidences for the genus-1 Virasoro conjecture.

We use standard constructions in algebraic geometry and homological algebra to extend the decomposition and hard Lefschetz theorems of T. Mochizuki and C. Sabbah so that they remains valid without the quasi-projectivity assumptions.

We consider the possibility of semisimple tensor categories whose fusion rule includes exactly one noninvertible simple object. Conditions are given for the existence or nonexistence of coherent associative structures for such fusion rules,…

Upper bounds on projective rigidity of each homogeneously embedded homogeneous variety are determined; and a new, invariant characterization of the Fubini forms is given.

Using the notion of Levi form of a smooth distribution, we discuss the local and the global problem of existence of one horizontal section of a smooth vector bundle endowed with a horizontal distribution. The analysis will lead to the…

We solve a case of the Abelian Exponential-Algebraic Closedness Conjecture, a conjecture due to Bays and Kirby, building on work of Zilber, which predicts sufficient conditions for systems of equations involving algebraic operations and the…

Flat coordinates for Frobenius manifolds defined on the orbit space of a Coxeter group W are specified through a certain system of generators of W-invariant polynomials. In this note, starting from basic invariants proposed by M.Mehta, we…

The Segre-Gimigliano-Harbourne-Hirschowitz Conjecture can be naturally formulated for Hirzebruch surfaces F_n. We show that this Conjecture holds for imposed base points of equal multiplicity bounded by 8.

We investigate the injectivity of the Frobenius map on thickenings of smooth varieties in projective space over a field of positive characteristic. We obtain uniform bounds -- i.e., independent of the characteristic -- on the thickening…

Let f: X -> Y be a smooth family of canonically polarized complex varieties over a smooth base. Generalizing the classical Shafarevich hyperbolicity conjecture, Viehweg conjectured that Y is necessarily of log general type if the family has…

A descent conjecture of Wittenberg [Wit24, Conjecture 3.7.4] predicts that if all the twists of a rationally connected torsor over a smooth base satisfy weak approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction, then so does the base. We give an…
