We unify results of Artin, Brieskorn, Slodowy and others by showing that, in all characteristics, the Artin component of the deformation space of a rational surface singularity has a ramified cover where simultaneous resolution exists and…
Consider the family of smooth cubic surfaces which can be realized as threefold-branched covers of $\mathbb{P}^{2}$, with branch locus equal to a smooth cubic curve. This family is parametrized by the space $\mathcal{U}_{3}$ of smooth cubic…
The topology of the orbit space, $Y$, for the action of the complex conjugation on a complex surface, $X$, defined over reals, is studied. I give a criterion for blow-up stable triviality of $Y$ (which implies vanishing of its…
A weak wild arithmetic quotient singularity arises from the quotient of a smooth arithmetic surface by a finite group action, where the inertia group of a point on a closed characteristic p fiber is a p-group acting with smallest possible…
Let $(\mathrm{Spec }R, \frak m)$ be a rational double point defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p\geq 0$. We evaluate further the dimensions of the local cohomology groups which were treated by Wahl in 1975 as…
We formulate a very general conjecture relating the analytical invariants of a normal surface singularity to the Seiberg-Witten invariants of its link provided that the link is a rational homology sphere. As supporting evidence, we…
If $X$ is a projective, geometrically irreducible variety defined over a finite field $\F_q$, such that it is smooth and its Chow group of 0-cycles fulfills base change, i.e. $CH_0(X\times_{\F_q}\bar{\F_q(X)})=\Q$, then the second author's…
In characteristic two and dimension two, wild Z/2Z-actions on k[[u,v]] ramified precisely at the origin were classified by Artin, who showed in particular that they induce hypersurface singularities. We introduce in this article a new class…
For isolated complex hypersurface singularities with real defining equation we show the existence of a monodromy vector field such that complex conjugation intertwines the local monodromy diffeomorphism with its inverse. In particular, it…
A classical and beautiful story in geometric representation theory is the construction by Springer of an action of the Weyl group on the cohomology of the fibres of the Springer resolution of the nilpotent cone. We establish a natural…
The monodromy action in the homology (generally with twisted coefficients) of complements of stratified complex analytic varieties depending on parameters is studied. For a wide class of local degenerations of such families (stratified…
We show that an oriented surface in $\mathbb{R}^4$ containing double point singularities induces a map between the Khovanov homology groups of its boundary links in a functorial way. As part of this work, the movie moves of Carter and Saito…
Let $S$ be a punctured surface of finite type and negative Euler characteristic. We determine all possible representations $\rho:\pi_1(S) \to \text{PSL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ that arise as the monodromy of the Schwarzian equation on $S$ with…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a perfect field $k$ acting on an algebraic variety $X$ and let $P$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$. For $k$-spherical $G$-varieties we prove finiteness result for $P$-orbits that contain…
We construct inductively an equivariant compactification of the algebraic group ${\mathbb W}_n$ of Witt vectors of finite length over a field of characteristic $p>0$. We obtain smooth projective rational varieties $\bar{\mathbb W}_n$,…
An action of a finite group on a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic is called restrained, if all second ramification groups are trivial (e.g., every group action on an ordinary curve is…
In this paper, we prove the irreducibility of the monodromy action on the anti-invariant part of the vanishing cohomology on a double cover of a very general element in an ample hypersurface of a complex smooth projective variety branched…
We define, for a regular scheme $S$ and a given field of characteristic zero $\KK$, the notion of $\KK$-linear mixed Weil cohomology on smooth $S$-schemes by a simple set of properties, mainly: Nisnevich descent, homotopy invariance,…
We study certain mild degenerations of algebraic varieties which appear in the analysis of a large class of supersymmetric theories, including superstring theory. We analyze Witten's sigma-model and find that the non-transversality of the…
Recently M. Mustata and V. Srinivas related a natural conjecture about the Frobenius action on the cohomology of the structure sheaf after reduction to characteristic $p > 0$ with another conjecture connecting multiplier ideals and test…
