We consider actions of reductive groups on a varieties with finitely generated Cox ring, e.g., the classical case of a diagonal action on a product of projective spaces. Given such an action, we construct via combinatorial data in the Cox…

We use our extension of the Noether-Lefschetz theorem to describe generators of the class groups at the local rings of singularities of very general hypersurfaces containing a fixed base locus. We give several applications, including (1)…

A major unsolved problem (according to Demailly 1997) towards the Kobayashi hyperbolicity conjecture in optimal degree is to understand jet differentials of germs of holomorphic discs that are invariant under any reparametrization of the…

Let $K\langle X_d\rangle$ denote the free associative algebra of rank $d \geq 2$ over a field $K$. By results of Lane (1976) and Kharchenko (1978), the algebra of invariants $K\langle X_d\rangle ^G$ is free for any subgroup $G \leq…

Let $K\langle X_d\rangle$ be the free associative algebra of rank $d \geq 2$ over a field $K$. Lane in 1976 and Kharchenko in 1978 proved that the algebra of invariants $K\langle X_d\rangle^G$ is free for any subgroup $G \leq…

In this paper we discuss some variations of Nagata's conjecture on linear systems of plane curves. The most relevant concerns non-effectivity (hence nefness) of certain rays, which we call \emph{good rays}, in the Mori cone of the blow-up…

We generalize [3, Lemma 2.2] and [4, Proposition 2.3] and deduce a positive result on Hilbert's fourteenth problem. Further, we give a relatively transparent and elementary proof of [3, Theorem 1.1].

Recently, the covariant formulation of the geometric bifurcation theory, developed in a previous paper, has been applied to two elementary problems: the study of limit cycles of dynamical systems and the second part of Hilbert's sixteenth…

Our goal is to give a purely algebraic characterization of finite abelian Galois covers of a complete, irreducible, non-singular curve $X$ over an algebraically closed field $\k$. To achieve this, we make use of the Galois theory of…

For a variety with a finitely generated total coordinate ring, we describe basic geometric properties in terms of certain combinatorial structures living in its divisor class group. For example, we describe the singularities, we calculate…

We study GIT quotients $X_\theta=V\!/\!\!/\!_\theta G$ whose linearisation map defines an isomorphism between the group of characters of $G$ and the Picard group of $X_\theta$ modulo torsion. Our main result establishes that the Cox ring of…

Let $X$ be a rational surface obtained by blowing up at a configuration $\mathcal{C}$ of infinitely near points over a Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb{F}_\delta$. We prove that there exist two positive integers $a \leq b$ such that the cone of…

In this expository note we discuss a class of graded algebras named Cox rings, which are naturally associated to algebraic varieties generalizing the homogeneous coordinate rings of projective spaces. Whenever the Cox ring is finitely…

We classify exactly when the toric algebras $\C[S_{\tree}(\br)]$ are Gorenstein. These algebras arise as toric deformations of algebras of invariants of the Cox-Nagata ring of the blow-up of $n-1$ points on $\mathbb{P}^{n-3}$, or…

We consider the 2-generated free metabelian associative and Lie algebras over the complex field and the invariants of the dihedral groups of finite order acting on these algebras. In the associative case we find a finite set of generators…

Let G be a reductive linear algebraic group over a field k. Let A be a finitely generated commutative k-algebra on which G acts rationally by k-algebra automorphisms. Invariant theory tells that the ring of invariants A^G=H^0(G,A) is…

We prove a formula for Chow groups of $Quot$-schemes which resolve degeneracy loci of a map between vector bundles, under expected dimension conditions. This result provides a unified way to understand known formulae for various geometric…

We prove existence of solutions to continuity equations in a separable Hilbert space. We look for solutions which are absolutely continuous with respect to a reference measure \gamma which is Fomin-differentiable with exponentially…

We extend the Cox-Hu-Keel construction of the Cox rings to any proper birational morphisms of normal noetherian schemes. It allows the representation of any proper birational morphism by a map of schemes with mild singularities with torus…

In this expositional paper, we discuss commutative algebra -- a study inspired by the properties of integers, rational numbers, and real numbers. In particular, we investigate rings and ideals, and their various properties. After, we…
