We establish a formula for computing the unramified Brauer group of tame conic bundle threefolds in characteristic 2. The formula depends on the arrangement and residue double covers of the discriminant components, the latter being governed…

We study real double covers of $\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^2$ branched over a $(2,2)$-divisor, which have the structure of a conic bundle threefold with smooth quartic discriminant curve via the second projection. In each isotopy class of…

We propose and compare various techiques available to produce smooth cubic hypersurfaces over a non-algebraically-closed field which have rational points but which are not stably rational over their ground field.

We improve a bound due to the second author on number of rational points on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ over finite fields and look at families of surfaces that achieve or nearly achieve this bound, for which we compute their exact…

We formulate a concrete geometric approximation hypothesis (Hypothesis~BB) asserting that codimension-$2$ Hodge classes on a smooth projective threefold can be realized as specializations of families whose general members are…

We study vector bundles on curves with rational tails and their smoothings and give a sufficient condition for the general fibre to be balanced.

We prove that there exist rational but not uniformly rational smooth algebraic varieties. The proof is based on computing a certain numerical obstruction developed in the case of compactifications of affine spaces. We show that for some…

A first step towards a systematic theory of relative line bundles over SUSY-curves is presented. In this paper we deal with the case of relative line bundles over families of ordinary Riemann surfaces. Generalizations of the Gauss-Bonnet…

We show that there exists a $2$-dimensional family of smooth cubic threefolds admitting unirational parametrizations of coprime degrees. This together with Clemens--Griffiths' work solves the long standing open problem whether there exists…

Let $C$ be a smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve defined over $\mathbb{R}$ such that $C(\mathbb{R}) = \emptyset$. Let $r>0$ and $d$ be integers which are coprime. Let $L$ be a line bundle on $C$ which corresponds to an…

Self-rational maps of generic algebraic K3 surfaces are conjectured to be trivial. We relate this conjecture to a conjecture concerning the irreducibility of the universal Severi varieties parametrizing nodal curves of given genus and…

We show that a quotient of a non-trivial Severi-Brauer surface $S$ over arbitrary field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic $0$ by a finite group $G \subset \operatorname{Aut}(S)$ is $\Bbbk$-rational, if and only if $|G|$ is divisible by $3$.…

In this note we construct an example of a smooth projective threefold that is irrational over $\mathbb Q$ but is rational at all places. Our example is a complete intersection of two quadrics in $\mathbb P^5$, and we show it has the desired…

Applying an idea of C. Voisin, we prove that a double cover of P^4 or P^5 branched along a very general quartic hypersurface is not stably rational.

Take an irreducible smooth complex projective curve $X$ of genus $g$, with $g\,\geq\, 3$. Let $r$ be an even positive integer. We prove that the Brauer group of the moduli stack of stable parabolic $\textnormal{PSp}(r,\mathbb{C})$--bundles…

In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Ulrich bundles on cubic fourfold $X$ of given rank $r$. As consequences, we show that for every integer $r\ge 2$ there exists a family of indecomposable rank…

We prove that certain vector bundles over surfaces are ample if they are so when restricted to divisors, certain numerical criteria hold, and they are semistable (with respect to $\det(E)$). This result is a higher-rank version of a theorem…

After recalling the definition and basic properties of Ulrich bundles, we focus on the existence problem: does any smooth projective variety carry a Ulrich bundle? We show that the Serre construction provides a positive answer on certain…

Very ampleness criteria for rank 2 vector bundles over smooth, ruled surfaces over rational and elliptic curves are given. The criteria are then used to settle open existence questions for some special threefolds of low degree.

We prove a structure theorem for non-isomorphic endomorphisms of weak Q-Fano threefolds, or more generally for threefolds with big anti-canonical divisor. Also provided is a criterion for a fibred rationally connected threefold to be…
