Let $P$ be a parabolic subgroup in $G=SL_n(\mathbf k)$, for $\mathbf k$ an algebraically closed field. We show that there is a $G$-stable closed subvariety of an affine Schubert variety in an affine partial flag variety which is a natural…

A projectively normal Calabi-Yau threefold $X \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n$ has an ideal $I_X$ which is arithmetically Gorenstein, of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity four. Such ideals have been intensively studied when $I_X$ is a complete…

Let $X_w$ be a Schubert subvariety of a cominuscule Grassmannian $X$, and let $\mu:T^*X\rightarrow\mathcal N$ be the Springer map from the cotangent bundle of $X$ to the nilpotent cone $\mathcal N$. In this paper, we construct a resolution…

We consider codes defined over an affine algebra $\mathcal A=R[X_1,\dots,X_r]/\left\langle t_1(X_1),\dots,t_r(X_r)\right\rangle$, where $t_i(X_i)$ is a monic univariate polynomial over a finite commutative chain ring $R$. Namely, we study…

The tangent degree $\tau(X)$ of a projective variety $X^n\subset\mathbb P^N$ is the number of tangent spaces to $X$ at smooth points passing through a general point of the tangent variety $Tan(X)\subseteq\mathbb P^N$, if positive and…

We provide a new proof of the following result: Let $X$ be a variety of finite type over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic 0, let $Z\subset X$ be a proper closed subset. There exists a modification $f:X_1 \rar X$, such…

We study the geometry of the secant and tangential variety of a cominuscule and minuscule variety, e.g. a Grassmannian or a spinor variety. Using methods inspired by statistics we provide an explicit local isomorphism with a product of an…

The set of T-invariant curves in a Schubert variety through a T-fixed point is relatively easy to characterize in terms of its weights, but the tangent space is more difficult. We prove that the weights of the tangent space are contained in…

Let R^univ be the universal deformation ring of a residual representation of a local Galois group. Kisin showed that many loci in MaxSpec(R^univ[1/p]) of interest are Zariski closed, and gave a way to study the generic fiber of the…

In this paper we aim at the description of foliations having tangent sheaf $T\mathcal F$ with $c_1(T\mathcal F)=c_2(T\mathcal F)=0$ on non-uniruled projective manifolds. We prove that the universal covering of the ambient manifold splits as…

Let $X/K$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a number field, and let $f:X\to{X}$ be a morphism defined over $K$. We formulate a number of statements of varying strengths asserting, roughly, that if there is at least one point…

This thesis is devoted to the study of geometric properties of affine algebraic varieties endowed with an action of an algebraic torus. It comes from three preprints which correspond to the indicated points (1), (2), (3). Let $X$ be an…

The celebrated Zariski Cancellation Problem asks as to when the existence of an isomorphism $X\times\mathbb{A}^n\cong X'\times\mathbb{A}^n$ for (affine) algebraic varieties $X$ and $X'$ implies that $X\cong X'$. In this paper we provide a…

We investigate a scheme-theoretic variant of Whitney condition a. If X is a projec-tive variety over the field of complex numbers and Y $\subset$ X a subvariety, then X satisfies generically the scheme-theoretic Whitney condition a along Y…

We produce local Calabi-Yau metrics on $\mathbf C^2$ with conical singularities along three or more complex lines through the origin whose cone angles strictly violate the Troyanov condition. The tangent cone at the origin is a flat…

Let $X$ and $X'$ be affine algebraic varieties over a field $\mathbb{k}$. The celebrated Zariski Cancellation Problem asks as to when the existence of an isomorphism $X\times\mathbb{A}^n\cong X'\times\mathbb{A}^n$ implies $X\cong X'$. In…

We prove that the canonical ring of a canonical variety in the sense of de Fernex and Hacon is finitely generated. We prove that canonical varieties are klt if and only if R(-K_X) is finitely generated. We introduce a notion of nefness for…

We formulate a strengthening of the Zariski dense orbit conjecture for birational maps of dynamical degree one. So, given a quasiprojective variety $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $0$, endowed with a…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of "extension" of a toric variety and study its fundamental properties. This gives rise to infinitely many toric varieties with a special property, such as being set theoretic complete intersection or…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive linear algebraic group. We consider the normal $G$-varieties with horospherical orbits. In this short note, we provide a criterion to determine whether these varieties have at most canonical, log canonical…
