The moduli space of totally marked degree two rational maps

Anupam Bhatnagar (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

A rational map ϕ: ℙ¹ → ℙ¹ along with an ordered list of fixed and critical points is called a totally marked rational map. The space R a t t m of totally marked degree two rational maps can be parametrized by an affine open subset of (ℙ¹)⁵. We consider the natural action of SL₂ on R a t t m induced from the action of SL₂ on (ℙ¹)⁵ and prove that the quotient space R a t t m / S L exists as a scheme. The quotient is isomorphic to a Del Pezzo surface with the isomorphism being defined over ℤ[1/2].

The monodromy conjecture for zeta functions associated to ideals in dimension two

Lise Van Proeyen, Willem Veys (2010)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The monodromy conjecture states that every pole of the topological (or related) zeta function induces an eigenvalue of monodromy. This conjecture has already been studied a lot. However in full generality it is proven only for zeta functions associated to polynomials in two variables.In this article we work with zeta functions associated to an ideal. First we work in arbitrary dimension and obtain a formula (like the one of A’Campo) to compute the “Verdier monodromy” eigenvalues associated to an...

The Mordell–Lang question for endomorphisms of semiabelian varieties

Dragos Ghioca, Thomas Tucker, Michael E. Zieve (2011)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

The Mordell–Lang conjecture describes the intersection of a finitely generated subgroup with a closed subvariety of a semiabelian variety. Equivalently, this conjecture describes the intersection of closed subvarieties with the set of images of the origin under a finitely generated semigroup of translations. We study the analogous question in which the translations are replaced by algebraic group endomorphisms (and the origin is replaced by another point). We show that the conclusion of the Mordell–Lang...

The Mukai conjecture for log Fano manifolds

Kento Fujita (2014)

Open Mathematics

For a log Fano manifold (X,D) with D ≠ 0 and of the log Fano pseudoindex ≥2, we prove that the restriction homomorphism Pic(X) → Pic(D 1) of Picard groups is injective for any irreducible component D 1 ⊂ D. The strategy of our proof is to run a certain minimal model program and is similar to Casagrande’s argument. As a corollary, we prove that the Mukai conjecture (resp. the generalized Mukai conjecture) implies the log Mukai conjecture (resp. the log generalized Mukai conjecture).
