Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We give a birational characterization of ordinary abelian varieties over $k$: a smooth projective variety $X$ is birational to an ordinary abelian variety if and only if…

We prove that the Albanese morphism of any normal proper variety $X$ in positive characteristic satisfying $S^0(X, \omega_X) \neq 0$ and $P_2(X) = 1$ is surjective with connected fibers, adn that $\mathrm{Alb}(X)$ is ordinary. We obtain…

For an ordinary abelian variety $X$, $F^e_*\mathcal{O}_X$ is decomposed into line bundles for every positive integer $e$. Conversely, if a smooth projective variety $X$ satisfies this property and its Kodaira dimension is non-negative, then…

A generically generated vector bundle on a smooth projective variety yields a rational map to a Grassmannian, called Kodaira map. We answer a previous question, raised by the asymptotic behaviour of such maps, giving rise to a birational…

Extending Enriques' characterization to algebraically closed fields of characteristic $p \geq 7$, we show that every smooth projective surface $X$ with $h^1(X, \mathcal{O}_X) = 2$ and $p_1(X) = p_2(X) = 1$ is birational to an Abelian…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field. We show that $A$ is the automorphism group scheme of some smooth projective variety if and only if $A$ has only finitely many automorphisms as an algebraic group. This…

Let X be a variety of maximal Albanese dimension. In this paper we prove that if \chi (\omega_X)=1 then the q(X)<=2dim X and if q(X)=2dim X, then X is birational to a product of curves of genus 2.

For a smooth projective complex variety $X$, we prove that there exists a birational morphism $X\times X\to Y$ to a projective variety $Y$ contracting the diagonal $\Delta_X\subset X\times X$ to a point if and only if $X$ has maximal…

We prove that any smooth complex projective variety with generic vanishing index bigger or equal than 2 has birational bicanonical map. Therefore, if X is a smooth complex projective variety X with maximal Albanese dimension and…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over the complex numbers. One knows by the Cone Theorem that the closed cone of curves of $X$ is rational polyhedral whenever $c_1(X)$ is ample. For varieties $X$ such that $c_1(X)$ is not ample,…
