Let $X$ be a normal, connected and projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$. It is known that a vector bundle $V$ on $X$ is essentially finite if and only if it is trivialized by a proper surjective morphism $f:Y\to X$. In…
A convex subset X of a linear topological space is called compactly convex if there is a continuous compact-valued map $\Phi:X\to exp(X)$ such that $[x,y]\subset\Phi(x)\cup \Phi(y)$ for all $x,y\in X$. We prove that each convex subset of…
This paper continues the study of non-general type subvarieties begun in a joint paper with M.Schneider and A.Sommese (Int.L.Math. 10, 1999). We prove uniruledness of a projective manifold containing a submanifold not of general type whose…
We show the existence of metrically dense entire curves in rationally connected complex projective manifolds confirming for this case a conjecture according to which such entire curves on projective manifolds exist if and only if these are…
We discuss homogeneity and universality issues in the theory of abstract linear spaces, namely, structures with points and lines satisfying natural axioms, as in Euclidean or projective geometry. We show that the two smallest projective…
We compute all the simply connected homogeneous and infinitesimally homogeneous surfaces admitting one or more invariant affine connections. We find exactly six non equivalent simply connected homogeneous surfaces admitting more than one…
Let $\mathbb X\subset\mathbb P(V)$ be a projective variety, which is not contained in a hyperplane. Then every vector $v$ in $V$ can be written as a sum of vectors from the affine cone $X$ over $\mathbb X$. The minimal number of summands in…
An algebraic variety $X$ is called a homogeneous variety if the automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$ acts on $X$ transitively, and a homogeneous space if there exists a transitive action of an algebraic group on $X$. We prove a criterion of…
We study non-commutative projective lines over not necessarily algebraic bimodules. In particular, we give a complete description of their categories of coherent sheaves and show they are derived equivalent to certain bimodule species. This…
In this paper, we study syzygies of rational homogeneous varieties. We extend Manivel's result that a $p$-th power of an ample line bundle on a flag variety satisfies Propery $(N_p)$ to many rational homogeneous varieties of type $B$, $C$,…
We study the following question, asked to us By Pandharipande and Starr: Let $X$ be a rationally connected $3$-fold, and $Y$ be a compact Kaehler $3$-fold symplectically equivalent to it. Is $Y$ rationally connected? We show that the answer…
Varieties of Fano type are very well behaved with respect to MMP, and they are known to be rationally connected. We study the relation between classes of rationally connected varieties and varieties of Fano type. We give examples of…
We show that the complement of a degree $d$ hypersurface in a projective complete intersection, whose defining equations have degrees strictly larger than $d$, has a rational connectivity higher than expected. The key new feature is that a…
The main question we raise here is the following one: given a real orthogonal n by n matrix X, is it true that there exists a rational orthogonal matrix Y having the same zero-pattern? We conjecture that this is the case and prove it for…
A digraph $\mathbb G$ is called weakly connected, strongly connected, and extremely connected if any two vertices of $\mathbb G$ are connected respectively by an oriented, a directed, and a symmetric path in $\mathbb G$. We investigate the…
Let B be a finite collection of geometric (not necessarily convex) bodies in the plane. Clearly, this class of geometric objects naturally generalizes the class of disks, lines, ellipsoids, and even convex polygons. We consider geometric…
It is possible to talk about the \'etale homotopy equivalence of rational points on algebraic varieties by using a relative version of the \'etale homotopy type. We show that over $p$-adic fields rational points are homotopy equivalent in…
Differential inclusions with compact, upper semi-continuous, not necessarily convex right-hand sides in R^n are studied. Under a weakened monotonicity-type condition the existence of solutions is proved.
We give necessary conditions for the existence of a compact manifold locally modelled on a given homogeneous space, which generalize some earlier results, in terms of relative Lie algebra cohomology. Applications include both reductive and…
We first show that any connected algebraic group over a perfect field is the neutral component of the automorphism group scheme of some normal projective variety. Then we show that very few connected algebraic semigroups can be realized as…
