In the first part of the paper, we build a foundation for further work on Hamiltonian actions on symplectic orbifolds. Most importantly we prove the orbifold versions of the abelian connectedness and convexity theorems. In the second half,…
Given an integer $\gamma\geq 2$ and an odd prime power $q$ we show that for every large genus $g$ there exists a non-singular curve $C$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ of genus $g$ and gonality $\gamma$ and with exactly $\gamma(q+1)$…
We prove that the cohomology of the moduli space of morphisms of a fixed finite degree from a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $g$ to a complete simplicial toric variety $\mathbb{P}(\Sigma)$, denoted by the rational polyhedral fan…
Pop proved that a smooth curve C over an ample field K that has a K-rational point has |K| many K-rational points. We strengthen this result by showing that there are |K| many K-rational points that do not lie in a given proper subfield,…
We show, under some natural conditions, that the set of abelian points on the non-anomalous subset of a closed irreducible subvariety $X$ intersected with the union of connected algebraic subgroups of codimension at least $\dim X$ in a…
The main result of this paper is a structural theorem for projective Q-factorial toric varieties X in P^N, covered by lines. We prove that there exists a toric fibration f: X -> Z, locally trivial in the Zariski topology, with fiber a…
We show that on every elliptic K3 surface $X$ there are rational curves $(R_i)_{i\in \mathbb{N}}$ such that $R_i^2 \to \infty$, i.e., of unbounded arithmetic genus. Moreover, we show that the union of the lifts of these curves to…
We describe classes of toric varieties of codimension 2 which are either minimally defined by 3 binomial equations over any algebraically closed field, or are set-theoretic complete intersections in exactly one positive characteristic.
We show that if a family of complex varieties over a base B admits a section when restricted to a very general curve in B, then the family must contain a subfamily of rationally connected varieties dominating B. As an application, we deduce…
We discuss a possible approach to the study of the vanishing of the Kobayashi pseudometric of a projective variety X, using chains of rational or elliptic curves contained in an arbitrarily small neighborhood of X in projective space for…
The cohomological dimension of a field is the largest degree with non-vanishing Galois cohomology. Serre's "Conjecture II" predicts that for every perfect field of cohomological dimension $2$, every torsor over the field for a semisimple,…
We extend work of Davis and Januszkiewicz by considering {\it omnioriented} toric manifolds, whose canonical codimension-2 submanifolds are independently oriented. We show that each omniorientation induces a canonical stably complex…
We study the relationship between several notions of connectedness arising in ${\mathbb A}^1$-homotopy theory of smooth schemes over a field $k$: ${\mathbb A}^1$-connectedness, stable ${\mathbb A}^1$-connectedness and motivic connectedness,…
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,…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, and let $X\subseteq\mathbb{P}^n_k$ be a quasi-projective variety that is $F$-rational and $F$-pure. We prove that if $H \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n_k$ is a general hyperplane,…
We classify all smooth projective toric surfaces $S$ containing exactly one exceptional curve. We show that every such surface $S$ is isomorphic to either $\mathbb{F}_1$ or a surface $S_r$ defined by a rational number $r \in \mathbb{Q}…
We reprove and generalize the result that the intersection cohomology groups of a toric variety with coefficient in a nontrivial rank one local system vanish. We prove a similar vanishing result for a certain class of varieties on which a…
Let $k$ be a perfect field and let $C_0:f=0$ be a smooth curve in the torus $\mathbb{G}_{m,k}^2$. Let $\mathbb{T}_\Delta$ be the toric variety associated to the Newton polygon of $f$. Extending the toric resolution of $C_0$ on…
Let $X$ be a smooth Fano fourfold admitting a conic bundle structure. We show that $X$ is toric if and only if $X$ admits an amplified endomorphism; in this case, $X$ is a rational variety.
We give a closed formula for the dimension of all linear systems in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with assigned multiplicity at arbitrary collections of points lying on a rational normal curve of degree $n$. In particular we give a purely geometric…
