A superpotential algebra is square if its quiver admits an embedding into a two-torus such that the image of its underlying graph is a square grid, possibly with diagonal edges in the unit squares; examples are provided by dimer models in physics. Such an embedding reveals much of the algebras representation theory th...
We prove in the case of equal characteristic a fundamental lemma conjectured by Jacquet and Mao for the metaplectic group. We use the arguments of Bao Châu Ngô for Jacquet-Ye's fundamental lemma and a geometric study of the metaplectic extension.
We prove that the moduli space of mathematical instanton bundles on ${\Bbb P}^3$ with $c_2=5$ is smooth.
We study lines and twisted cubics on cubic fourfolds with simple isolated singularities. We show that the Hilbert scheme compactification of the total space of Starr's fibration on the space of twisted cubics on a cubic fourfold with simple isolated singularities and not containing a plane admits a contraction to ...
We discuss the minimal model program for b-log varieties, which is a pair of a variety and a b-divisor, as a natural generalization of the minimal model program for ordinary log varieties. We show that the main theorems of the log MMP work in the setting of the b-log MMP.
A log generic hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with respect to a birational modification of $\mathbb{P}^n$ is by definition the image of a generic element of a high power of an ample linear series on the modification. A log very-generic hypersurface is defined similarly but restricting to line bundles satisfying a non-r...
We describe the topology of critical loci of coamoeba of generic affine planes in four-space.
We construct an action of the Neron--Severi part of the Looijenga-Lunts-Verbitsky Lie algebra on the Chow ring of the Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface. This yields a simplification of Maulik and Negut's proof that the cycle class map is injective on the subring generated by divisor classes as conjectured b...
In this paper we will prove that there exists a covariant functor from the category of schemes to the category of graphs. This functor provides a combination between algebraic varieties and combinatorial graphs so that the invariants defined on graphs can be introduced to algebraic varieties in a natural manner.
We prove that every Q-factorial complete toric variety is a finite quotient of a poly weighted space (PWS), as defined in our previous work <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1501.05244" data-arxiv-id="1501.05244" class="link-https">arXiv:1501.05244</a>. This generalizes the Batyrev-Cox and Conrads description of a Q-fact...
The concepts of tropical-semiring and tropical hypersurface, are extended for an arbitrary ordered group. Then, we define the tropicalization of a polynomial with coefficients in a Krull-valued field.
In this paper we prove the rationality of the capped vertex function with descendents for arbitrary Nakajima quiver varieties with generic stability conditions. We generalise the proof given by Smirnov to the general case, which requires to use techniques of tautological classes rather than the fixed-point basis.
We study a trace formula for tamely ramified abelian varieties $A$ over a complete discretely valued field, which expresses the Euler characteristic of the special fiber of the Néron model of $A$ in terms of the Galois action on the $\ell$-adic cohomology of $A$. If $A$ has purely additive reduction, the trace formula...
We give a negative answer to a question by J.M. Landsberg on the nature of normalizations of orbit closures. A counterexample originates from the study of complex, ternary, cubic forms.
The affine cancellation problem, which asks whether complex affine varieties with isomorphic cylinders are themselves isomorphic, has a positive solution for two dimensional varieties whose coordinate rings are unique factorization domains, in particular for the affine plane, but counterexamples are found within normal...
Let $X$ a smooth quasi-projective algebraic surface, $L$ a line bundle on $X$. Let $X^{[n]}$ the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on $X$ and $L^{[n]}$ the tautological bundle on $X^{[n]}$ naturally associated to the line bundle $L$ on $X$.
The study of the closest point(s) on a statistical model from a given distribution in the probability simplex with respect to a fixed Wasserstein metric gives rise to a polyhedral norm distance optimization problem. There are two components to the complexity of determining the Wasserstein distance from a data point to...
Given a family of cyclic covers of $\mathbb{P}^1$ and a prime $p$ of good reduction, by [12] the generic Newton polygon (resp. Ekedahl--Oort type) in the family ($\mu$-ordinary) is known. In this paper, we investigate the existence of non-$\mu$-ordinary smooth curves in the family.
We prove that the jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve y^2=f(x) has no nontrivial endomorphisms over an algebraic closure of the ground field of characteristic zero if the Galois group of the polynomial f is ``very big&#39;&#39;.
Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective algebraic variety. Given a line bundle $\mathcal{L}$ over $X$ and an integer $r&gt;1$ one defines the stack $\sqrt[r]{\mathcal{L}/X}$ of $r$-th roots of $\mathcal{L}$.
In this note, we provide an axiomatic framework that characterizes the stable $\infty$-categories that are module categories over a motivic spectrum. This is done by invoking Lurie&#39;s $\infty$-categorical version of the Barr--Beck theorem.
A conic bundle is a contraction $X\to Z$ between normal varieties of relative dimension $1$ such that $-K_X$ is relatively ample. We prove a conjecture of Shokurov which predicts that, if $X\to Z$ is a conic bundle such that $X$ has canonical singularities and $Z$ is $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein, then $Z$ is always $\frac{...
In view of applications to the construction of moduli spaces of objects in algebraic supergeometry, we start a systematic study of stacks in that context. After defining a superstack as a stack over the étale site of superschemes, we define quotient superstacks, and, based on previous literature, we see that, in analo...
In this article, I define triangulated categories of constructible isocrystals on varieties over a perfect field of positive characteristic, in which Le Stum&#39;s abelian category of constructible isocrystals sits as the heart of a natural t-structure. I then prove a Riemann-Hilbert correspondence, showing that, for ...
All isomorphisms of Plücker spaces on affine spaces with dimensions $\geq 3$ arise from collineations of the underlying affine spaces.
The homotopy group $\pi_{n-k} ({\bf C}^{n+1}-V)$ where $V$ is a hypersurface with a singular locus of dimension $k$ and good behavior at infinity is described using generic pencils. This is analogous to the van Kampen procedure for finding a fundamental group of a plane curve.
These expository notes, addressed to non-experts, are intended to present some of Hironaka&#39;s ideas on his theorem of resolution of singularities. We focus particularly on those aspects which have played a central role in the constructive proof of this theorem.
We survey our recent papers (some being joint ones) about the relation between the geometry of a compact Kähler manifold and the existence of automorphisms of positive entropy on it. We also use the language of log minimal model program (LMMP) in biraitonal geometry, but not its more sophisticated technical part.
We study the relationship between the equations defining a projective variety and properties of its secant varieties. In particular, we use information about the syzygies among the defining equations to derive smoothness and normality statements about Sec(X) and also to obtain information about linear systems on the b...
This thesis contains work which appeared in several papers. Additionally to the results in the papers it contains a detailed introduction and some further proofs and remarks.
It is known that a vector bundle E on a smooth projective curve Y defined over an algebraically closed field is semistable if and only if there is a vector bundle F on Y such that the cohomologies of E\otimes F vanish. We extend this criterion for semistability to vector bundles on curves defined over perfect fields.
Following the completion of the algebraic construction of the Poisson wild character varieties (B.--Yamakawa, 2015) one can consider their natural deformations, generalising both the mapping class group actions on the usual (tame) character varieties, and the G-braid groups already known to occur in the wild/irregular ...
We prove that the minimal free resolution of the secant variety of a curve is asymptotically pure. As a corollary, we show that the Betti numbers of converge to a normal distribution.
The generalized Franchetta conjecture for hyper-Kähler varieties predicts that an algebraic cycle on the universal family of certain polarized hyper-Kähler varieties is fiberwise rationally equivalent to zero if and only if it vanishes in cohomology fiberwise. We establish Franchetta-type results for certain low (Hilb...
Let M(d,n) be the moduli stack of hypersurfaces of degree d &gt; n in the complex projective n-space, and let M(d,n;1) be the sub-stack, parameterizing hypersurfaces obtained as a d fold cyclic covering of the projective n-1 space, ramified over a hypersurface of degree d. Iterating this construction, one obtains M(d,...
Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over a finite field $\bF_q$, homogeneous under a linear algebraic group. We show that the number of rational points of $X$ over $\bF_{q^n}$ is a periodic polynomial function of $q^n$ with integer coefficients.
Let X --&gt; S be a smooth projective family of surfaces over a smooth curve S such that the generic fiber is a surface with Weil H^2 spanned by divisors and trivial H^1. We prove that if the relative motive of X/S is finite-dimensional the Chow group CH^2(X) with coefficients in Q is generated by a multisection and v...
We review and develop some techniques used to investigate the effective cones of higher codimension classes. Our results show that a large collection of boundary strata of rational tails type are extremal in their effective cones on $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ and provide evidence for the conjecture that all bounda...
Using the fact that $\Pi$-invertible sheaves can be interpreted as locally free sheaves of modules for the super skew field $\mathbb{D}$, we give a new construction of the $\Pi$-projective superspace $\mathbb{P}^n_{\Pi, B}$ over affine $k$ superschemes $B$, $k$ an algebraically closed field. We characterize morphisms ...
We give some examples of Calabi-Yau 3-folds with $\rho=1$, defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and constructed as 4-codimensional subvarieties of $\mathbb{P}^7$ via commutative algebra methods. We explain how to deduce their Hodge diamond and top Chern classes from computer based computations over some finite field $\mathbb{F}_...
We consider the classification problem of prime $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano 3-folds with at most $1/2(1,1,1)$-singularities, which was initiated in [Taka2]. We construct two distinct classes of such 3-folds with genus one and six $1/2(1,1,1)$-singularities, each equipped with a prescribed Sarkisov link.
We define a class of skeletons on Berkovich analytic spaces, which we call &#34;accessible&#34;, which contains the standard skeleton of the n-dimensional torus for every n and is preserved by G-glueing, by taking the inverse image along a morphism of relative dimension zero, and by taking the direct image along a morp...
We prove the Morrison-Kawamata cone conjecture for klt Calabi-Yau pairs in dimension 2. That is, for a large class of rational surfaces as well as K3 surfaces and abelian surfaces, the action of the automorphism group of the surface on the convex cone of ample divisors has a rational polyhedral fundamental domain.
We prove that for n= 5, 6, 7, a nodal hypersurface of degree n in P^4 is factorial if it has at most (n-1)^2-1 nodes.
We define special cycles on arithmetic models of twisted Hilbert-Blumenthal surfaces at primes of good reduction. These are arithmetic versions of these cycles.
We establish GIT semistability of the 2nd Hilbert point of every Gieseker-Petri general canonical curve by a simple geometric argument. As a consequence, we obtain an upper bound on slopes of general families of Gorenstein curves.
We prove non-commutative reciprocity laws on an algebraic surface defined over a perfect field. These reciprocity laws claim the splittings of some central extensions of globally constructed groups over some subgroups constructed by points or projective curves on a surface.
We give sufficient conditions for the semisimplicity of quantum cohomology of Fano varieties of Picard rank 1. We apply these techniques to prove new semisimplicity results for some Fano varieties of Picard rank 1 and large index.
We give the full classification of smooth toric Legendrian subvarieties in projective space. We also prove that under some minor assumptions the group of linear automorphisms preserving given Legendrian subvariety preserves the contact structure of the ambient projective space.
In this paper, we describe explicit algebraic equations of cyclic gonal curves reflecting the action of the normalizer of a tame cyclic $k$-gonal automorphism. This completes the known situation obtained by Wootton for the case when $k$ is a prime integer.
Let q&gt;1 denote an integer relatively prime to 2,3,7 and for which G=PSL(2,q) is a Hurwitz group for a smooth projective curve X defined over C. We compute the G-module structure of the Riemann-Roch space L(D), where D is an invariant divisor on X of positive degree. This depends on a computation of the ramification...
This work concerns asymptotical stabilisation phenomena occurring in the moduli space of sections of certain algebraic families over a smooth projective curve, whenever the generic fibre of the family is a smooth projective Fano variety, or not far from being Fano. <br>We describe the expected behaviour of the class, ...
For each d we construct CAT(0) cube complexes on which Cremona groups rank d act by isometries. From these actions we deduce new and old group theoretical and dynamical results about Cremona groups.
In this paper we construct a coarse moduli scheme of stable unramified irregular singular parabolic connections on a smooth projective curve and prove that the constructed moduli space is smooth and has a symplectic structure. Moreover we will construct the moduli space of generalized monodromy data coming from topolo...
We generalize the Bernstein-Sato polynomials of Budur, Mustata and Saito to ideals in normal semigroup rings. In the case of monomial ideals, we also relate the roots of the Bernstein-Sato polynomial to the jumping coefficients of the corresponding multiplier ideals.
This paper provides a computation of the mod 2 Chow ring of the motivic étale classifying space of the finite group $\mathrm{Syl}_2(\mathrm{GL}(4,2))$. It outlines a general computation strategy, adapted from work by Burt Totaro, that has been largely automated by the author.
Inspired by the Bloch-Beilinson conjectures, Voisin has formulated a conjecture concerning the behaviour of 0-cycles on self-products of varieties of geometric genus one. This note presents some new examples of surfaces for which Voisin&#39;s conjecture is verified.
In this paper we compute the dimension of all the higher secant varieties to the Segre-Veronese embedding of $\mathbb{P}^n\times \mathbb{P}^1$ via the section of the sheaf $\mathcal{O}(a,b)$ for any $n,a,b\in \mathbb{Z}^+$. We relate this result to the Grassmann Defectivity of Veronese varieties and we classify all th...
We determine the differential Galois group of the family of all regular singular differential equations on the Riemann sphere. It is the free proalgebraic group on a set of cardinality $|\mathbb{C}|$.
We study the problem of counting pointed curves of fixed complex structure in blow-ups of projective space at general points. The geometric and virtual (Gromov-Witten) counts are found to agree asymptotically in the Fano (and some $(-K)$-nef) examples, but not in general.
We study the robustness of the steady states of a class of systems of autonomous ordinary differential equations (ODEs), having as a central example those arising from (bio)chemical reaction networks. More precisely, we study under what conditions the steady states of the system are contained in a parallel translate o...
We construct an isomorphism of graded Frobenius algebras between the orbifold Chow ring of weighted projective spaces and graded algebras of groups of roots of the unity.
We show that the number of equivariant deformation classes of real structures in a given deformation class of compact hyperkahler manifolds is finite.
In their paper which introduced Monsky-Washnitzer cohomology, Monsky and Washnitzer described conditions under which the definition can be adapted to give integral cohomology groups. It seems to be well-known among experts that their construction always gives well-defined integral cohomology groups, but this fact also...
We prove Reider type criterions for k-jet spannedness and k-jet ampleness of adjoint bundles for surfaces with at most rational singularities. Moreover, we prove that on smooth surfaces [n(n+4)/4]-very ampleness implies n-jet ampleness.
In this short note a differential version of the classical Weil descent is established in all characteristics. This yields a ready-to-deploy tool of differential restriction of scalars for differential varieties over finite differential field extensions.
We prove that the moduli spaces of rational curves of degree at most $3$ in linear sections of the Grassmannian $Gr(2,5)$ are all rational varieties. We also study their compactifications and birational geometry.
A k-ellipse is a plane curve consisting of all points whose distances from k fixed foci sum to a constant. We determine the singularities and genus of its Zariski closure in the complex projective plane.
We define a special type of hypersurface varieties inside $\mathbb{P}_k^{n-1}$ arising from connected planar graphs and then find their equivalence classes inside the Gröthendieck ring of projective varieties. Then we find a characterization for graphs in order to define irreducible hypersurfaces in general.
Families of Bridgeland stability conditions induce families of stability data, wall-crossing structures and scattering diagrams on the motivic Hall algebra. These structures can be transferred to the quantum torus if the stability conditions of the family have global dimension at most 2.
As a natural sequel for the study of $A$-motivic cohomology, initiated in [Gaz], we develop a notion of regulator for rigid analytically trivial Anderson $A$-motives. In accordance with the conjectural number field picture, we define it as the morphism at the level of extension modules induced by the exactness of the ...
This is a survey on Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture.
This is a brief summary of our works [<a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1112.4063" data-arxiv-id="1112.4063" class="link-https">arXiv:1112.4063</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1201.4501" data-arxiv-id="1201.4501" class="link-https">arXiv:1201.4501</a>] on constructing higher genus B-model from perturbative quantizatio...
These notes explore three amazing formulas proved by Abel in his 1826 Paris memoir on what we now call Abelian integrals. We discuss the first two formulas from the point of view of symbolic computation and explain their connection to residues and partial fractions.
Inspired by recent work in the theory of central projections onto hypersurfaces, we characterize self-linked perfect ideals of grade 2 as those with a Hilbert--Burch matrix that has a maximal symmetric subblock. We also prove that every Gorenstein perfect algebra of grade 1 can be presented, as a module, by a symmetri...
For any finite abelian group G, the equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of C^r/G can be viewed as a certain kind of abelian Hurwitz-Hodge integrals. In this note, we use Tseng&#39;s orbifold quantum Riemann-Roch theorem to express this kind of abelian Hurwitz-Hodge integrals as a sum over Feynman graphs, where the we...
In this paper we construct noncommutative resolutions of a certain class of Calabi-Yau threefolds studied by F. Cachazo, S. Katz and C. Vafa. The threefolds under consideration are fibered over a complex plane with the fibers being deformed Kleinian singularities.
We establish the flat cohomology version of the Gabber-Thomason purity for étale cohomology: for a complete intersection Noetherian local ring $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ and a commutative, finite, flat $R$-group $G$, the flat cohomology $H^i_{\mathfrak{m}}(R, G)$ vanishes for $i &lt; \mathrm{dim}(R)$. For small $i$, this set...
This is the second paper in a series on intrinsic Donaldson-Thomas theory, a framework for studying the enumerative geometry of general algebraic stacks. <br>In this paper, we present the construction of Donaldson-Thomas invariants for general $(-1)$-shifted symplectic derived Artin stacks, generalizing the constructi...
Cluster varieties are geometric objects that have recently found applications in several areas of mathematics and mathematical physics. This thesis studies the geometry of a large class of cluster varieties associated to compact oriented surfaces with boundary.
To a dominant morphism $X/S \to Y/S$ of Nœtherian integral $S$-schemes one has the inclusion $C_{X/Y}\subset B_{X/Y}$ of the critical locus in the branch locus of $X/Y$. Starting from the notion of locally complete intersection morphisms, we give conditions on the modules of relative differentials $\Omega_{X/Y}$, $\Om...
Let $X$ be the blow up of $\mathbb{P}^2$ at $r$ general points $p_1,\ldots,p_r \in \mathbb{P}^2$. We study line bundles on $X$ given by plane curves of degree $d$ passing through $p_i$ with multiplicity $m_i$.
In this note, we provide an explicit computation of the weak fan associated with a two-parameter degeneration of K3 surfaces. This example serves as a concrete illustration of the general framework developed by Robles and Deng (2023) for the compactification of period maps via nilpotent orbits in the non-Hermitian cas...
We study further Mumford&#39;s notion of local semistability and, in particular, show that semistable singularities are log canonical under mild assumptions. We provide many new examples of semistable and unstable singularities.
We prove a generalization of the Fujita-Kawamata-Zuo semi-positivity Theorem for filtered regular meromorphic Higgs bundles and tame harmonic bundles. Our approach gives a new proof in the cases already considered by these authors.
We give some experimental data of Gorenstein liaison, working with points in ${\mathbb P}^3$ and curves in ${\mathbb P}^4$, to see how far the familiar situation of liaison, biliaison, and Rao modules of curves in ${\mathbb P}^3$ will extend to subvarieties of codimension 3 in higher ${\mathbb P}^4$.
Generalizing a classical lemma of Castelnuovo, we characterize rational normal curves (resp. linearly normal elliptic curves) as curves $C\subset \PP^n$ such that the number of linearly independent hypersurfaces $Z\supset C$ of given degree~$m$ is maximal (resp. next to maximal).
Suppose $X$ is a smooth quasiprojective variety over $\cc$ and $\rho : \pi _1(X,x) \to SL(2,\cc)$ is a Zariski-dense representation with quasiunipotent monodromy at infinity. Then $\rho$ factors through a map $X\to Y$ with $Y$ either a DM-curve or a Shimura modular stack.
In this paper we classify non-symplectic automorphisms of order 8 on complex K3 surfaces in case that the fourth power of the automorphism has only rational curves in its fixed locus. We show that the fixed locus is the disjoint union of a rational curve and 10 isolated points or it consists in 4 isolated fixed points...
Plane quartics containing the ten vertices of a complete pentalateral and limits of them are called Lüroth quartics. The locus of singular Lüroth quartics has two irreducible components, both of codimension two in $¶^{14}$.
A toric degeneration of an irreducible variety is a flat degeneration to an irreducible toric variety. In the case of a flag variety, its toric degeneration with desirable properties induces degenerations of Richardson varieties to unions of irreducible closed toric subvarieties, called semi-toric degenerations.
Let $X$ be a complex Calabi-Yau variety, that is, a complex projective variety with canonical singularities whose canonical class is numerically trivial. Let $G$ be a finite group acting on $X$ and consider the quotient variety $X/G$.
The classical version of Bézout&#39;s Theorem gives an integer-valued count of the intersection points of hypersurfaces in projective space over an algebraically closed field. Using work of Kass and Wickelgren, we prove a version of Bézout&#39;s Theorem over any perfect field by giving a bilinear form-valued count of ...
We formulate Vojta&#39;s conjecture for smooth weighted projective varieties, weighted multiplier ideal sheaves, and weighted log pairs and prove that all three versions of the conjecture are equivalent. In the process, we introduce generalized weighted general common divisors and express them as heights of weighted p...
We prove the equidistribution of the Hodge locus for certain non-isotrivial, polarized variations of Hodge structure of weight $2$ with $h^{2,0}=1$ over complex, quasi-projective curves. Given some norm condition, we also give an asymptotic on the growth of the Hodge locus.
In this paper, we propose a geometric proof of the generalized mirror transformation for multi-point virtual structure constants of degree k hypersurfaces in CP^{N-1}.
Let $(X,o)$ be a germ of a 3-dimensional terminal singularity of index $m\geq 2$. If $(X,o)$ has type cAx/4, cD/3-3, cD/2-2, or cE/2, then assume that the standard equation of $X$ in $\mathbb{C}^4/\mathbb{Z}_m$ is non-degenerate with respect to its Newton diagram.
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p&gt;0$ not necessarily perfect. Using Berthelot&#39;s theory of arithmetic $\mathcal{D}$-modules, we construct a $p$-adic formalism of Grothendieck&#39;s six operations for realizable $k$-schemes of finite type.
Let X be a smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that if D is a pseudo-effective R-divisor on X which is not numerically equivalent to the negative part in its divisorial Zariski decomposition, then the numerical dimension of D is positive.
We derive a Mellin-Barnes integral representation for solution to generalized (parabolic) quantum Toda lattice introduced in \cite{GLO}, which presumably describes the $(S^1\times U_N)$-equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of Grassmann variety.
