Let $X$ be a factorial complex affine variety of dimension $\ge 3$ with an algebraic action of the additive group $G_a$. Let $\pi : X \to Y$ be the algebraic quotient morphism where we assume $Y$ is an affine variety. When $\pi$ is…

We study the totally nonnegative part of the Peterson variety in arbitrary Lie type and establish its connection to the strongly dominant weight polytope. In particular, we prove that the totally nonnegative part of the Peterson variety is…

We state several questions, and prove some partial results, about the Chow ring $A^\ast(X)$ of complete intersections in projective space. For one thing, we prove that if $X$ is a general Calabi-Yau hypersurface, the intersection product…

Roquette proved Amitsur's conjecture for Severi-Brauer varieties associated with cyclic algebras using algebraic methods. We present a geometric proof of Roquette's result, providing simple and explicit birational isomorphisms.

We consider a family of genus $g$ hyperelliptic curves as double ramified coverings over the Riemann sphere with the set of branch points of the form $\{0, \infty, x_1, \dots, x_g, u_1, \dots, u_g\}$. The branch point at infinity $P_\infty$…

We study deformations of a genus one Riemann surface and of a second order Abelian differential on the surface which preserve the periods of the differential with respect to a chosen canonical homology basis of the surface. We call these…

We determine the maximal number of smooth rational degree d curves on a complex K3-surface of degree 2n provided n is sufficiently large as compared to d>1. We obtain precise characterization of configurations of rational degree d curves…

We show that the (2-)category of categorical representations of the loop group embeds fully faithfully into the (2-)category of factorization module categories with respect to the affine Grassmannian.

We develop a new method for establishing the extremality in the closed cone of effective curves on the moduli space of curves and determine the extremality of many boundary $1$-strata. As a consequence, by using a general criterion for…

We show that the natural stratifications arising from certain deformation families of line singularities with constant L\^e numbers satisfy Bekka's $(c)$-regularity condition. As a corollary, we obtain that these families are topologically…

Bott vanishing is a strong vanishing result for the cohomology of exterior powers of the cotangent bundle twisted by ample line bundles. Buch-Thomsen-Lauritzen-Mehta conjectured that partial flag varieties (which are not products of…

We establish criteria for when Noether--Lefschetz divisors generate an extremal ray in the cone of pseudoeffective divisors of an orthogonal modular variety. In particular, we exhibit many extremal rays of the cone of pseudoeffective…

We investigate the relationship between Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) heights and weighted heights, with a focus on their interaction in weighted projective spaces and their application to binary forms. Building on the weighted height…

Frobenius' theorem in differential geometry asserts that every involutive subbundle of the tangent bundle of a manifold $M$ integrates to a decomposition of $M$ into smooth leaves. We prove an infinitesimal analogue of this result for…

We study the termination of minimal model programs for log canonical pairs in the complex analytic setting. By using the termination, we prove a relation between the minimal model theory for projective log canonical pairs and that for log…

Ever since the introduction of motivic homotopy theory, as a well-proposed approximation of Grothendieck's dream, algebraic geometers then have the chance to study schemes via a homotopy theory. However topologists also found that lifting…

In this article, we construct an infinite sequence of irreducible components of Koll\'{a}r--Shepherd-Barron (KSB-) moduli spaces of surfaces of arbitrarily large volumes, and describe the boundary of each component completely. Moreover, we…

We construct a refinement of Gaitsgory's central functor for integral motivic sheaves, and show it preserves stratified Tate motives. Towards this end, we develop a reformulation of unipotent motivic nearby cycles, which also works over…

In this paper, we study the classical theory of quadratic line complexes and Kummer surfaces. A quadratic line complex is the intersection of the Grassmannian $G(2,4)$ and a quadric hypersurface in ${\bf P}^5$, and a Kummer surface is the…

We complete the proof of the Nisnevich conjecture in equal characteristic: for a smooth algebraic variety $X$ over a field $k$, a $k$-smooth divisor $D \subset X$, and a reductive $X$-group $G$ whose base change $G_D$ is totally isotropic,…
