Finiteness of cominuscule quantum K -theory

Anders S. Buch, Pierre-Emmanuel Chaput, Leonardo C. Mihalcea, Nicolas Perrin (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

The product of two Schubert classes in the quantum K -theory ring of a homogeneous space X = G / P is a formal power series with coefficients in the Grothendieck ring of algebraic vector bundles on  X . We show that if X is cominuscule, then this power series has only finitely many non-zero terms. The proof is based on a geometric study of boundary Gromov-Witten varieties in the Kontsevich moduli space, consisting of stable maps to  X that take the marked points to general Schubert varieties and...

On Zariski's theorem in positive characteristic

Ilya Tyomkin (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In the current paper we show that the dimension of a family V of irreducible reduced curves in a given ample linear system on a toric surface S over an algebraically closed field is bounded from above by - K S . C + p g ( C ) - 1 , where C denotes a general curve in the family. This result generalizes a famous theorem of Zariski to the case of positive characteristic. We also explore new phenomena that occur in positive characteristic: We show that the equality 𝚍𝚒𝚖 ( V ) = - K S . C + p g ( C ) - 1 does not imply the nodality of C even if C belongs...

Springer fiber components in the two columns case for types A and D are normal

Nicolas Perrin, Evgeny Smirnov (2012)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We study the singularities of the irreducible components of the Springer fiber over a nilpotent element N with N 2 = 0 in a Lie algebra of type A or D (the so-called two columns case). We use Frobenius splitting techniques to prove that these irreducible components are normal, Cohen–Macaulay, and have rational singularities.

Lagrangian fibrations on generalized Kummer varieties

Martin G. Gulbrandsen (2007)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We investigate the existence of Lagrangian fibrations on the generalized Kummer varieties of Beauville. For a principally polarized abelian surface A of Picard number one we find the following: The Kummer variety K n A is birationally equivalent to another irreducible symplectic variety admitting a Lagrangian fibration, if and only if n is a perfect square. And this is the case if and only if K n A carries a divisor with vanishing Beauville-Bogomolov square.

Asymptotics of eigensections on toric varieties

A. Huckleberry, H. Sebert (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Using exhaustion properties of invariant plurisubharmonic functions along with basic combinatorial information on toric varieties, we prove convergence results for sequences of densities | ϕ n | 2 = | s N | 2 / | | s N | | L 2 2 for eigensections s N Γ ( X , L N ) approaching a semiclassical ray. Here X is a normal compact toric variety and L is an ample line bundle equipped with an arbitrary positive bundle metric which is invariant with respect to the compact form of the torus. Our work was motivated by and extends that of Shiffman, Tate...

Quiver varieties and the character ring of general linear groups over finite fields

Emmanuel Letellier (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Given a tuple ( 𝒳 1 , ... , 𝒳 k ) of irreducible characters of G L n ( F q ) we define a star-shaped quiver Γ together with a dimension vector v . Assume that ( 𝒳 1 , ... , 𝒳 k ) is generic. Our first result is a formula which expresses the multiplicity of the trivial character in the tensor product 𝒳 1 𝒳 k as the trace of the action of some Weyl group on the intersection cohomology of some (non-affine) quiver varieties associated to ( Γ , v ) . The existence of such a quiver variety is subject to some condition. Assuming that this condition is satisfied,...

The end curve theorem for normal complex surface singularities

Walter D. Neumann, Jonathan Wahl (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove the “End Curve Theorem,” which states that a normal surface singularity ( X , o ) with rational homology sphere link Σ is a splice quotient singularity if and only if it has an end curve function for each leaf of a good resolution tree. An “end curve function” is an analytic function ( X , o ) ( , 0 ) whose zero set intersects Σ in the knot given by a meridian curve of the exceptional curve corresponding to the given leaf. A “splice quotient singularity” ( X , o ) is described by giving an explicit set of...

Some surfaces with maximal Picard number

Arnaud Beauville (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

Similarity:

For a smooth complex projective variety, the rank ρ of the Néron-Severi group is bounded by the Hodge number h 1 , 1 . Varieties with ρ = h 1 , 1 have interesting properties, but are rather sparse, particularly in dimension 2 . We discuss in this note a number of examples, in particular those constructed from curves with special Jacobians.

Singularities of theta divisors and the geometry of 𝒜 5

Gavril Farkas, Samuele Grushevsky, Salvati R. Manni, Alessandro Verra (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the codimension two locus H in 𝒜 g consisting of principally polarized abelian varieties whose theta divisor has a singularity that is not an ordinary double point. We compute the class [ H ] C H 2 ( 𝒜 g ) for every g . For g = 4 , this turns out to be the locus of Jacobians with a vanishing theta-null. For g = 5 , via the Prym map we show that H 𝒜 5 has two components, both unirational, which we describe completely. We then determine the slope of the effective cone of 𝒜 5 ¯ and show that the component N 0 ' ¯ of the Andreotti-Mayer...

On varieties of Hilbert type

Lior Bary-Soroker, Arno Fehm, Sebastian Petersen (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

A variety X over a field K is of Hilbert type if X ( K ) is not thin. We prove that if f : X S is a dominant morphism of K -varieties and both S and all fibers f - 1 ( s ) , s S ( K ) , are of Hilbert type, then so is X . We apply this to answer a question of Serre on products of varieties and to generalize a result of Colliot-Thélène and Sansuc on algebraic groups.

Singularities of Maxwell’s system in non-hilbertian Sobolev spaces

Wided Chikouche, Serge Nicaise (2008)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

We study the regularity of the solution of the regularized electric Maxwell problem in a polygonal domain with data in L p ( Ω ) 2 . Using a duality method, we prove a decomposition of the solution into a regular part in the non-Hilbertian Sobolev space W 2 , p ( Ω ) 2 and an explicit singular one.

Birational Finite Extensions of Mappings from a Smooth Variety

Marek Karaś (2009)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We present an example of finite mappings of algebraic varieties f:V → W, where V ⊂ kⁿ, W k n + 1 , and F : k k n + 1 such that F | V = f and gdeg F = 1 < gdeg f (gdeg h means the number of points in the generic fiber of h). Thus, in some sense, the result of this note improves our result in J. Pure Appl. Algebra 148 (2000) where it was shown that this phenomenon can occur when V ⊂ kⁿ, W k m with m ≥ n+2. In the case V,W ⊂ kⁿ a similar example does not exist.

μ -constant monodromy groups and marked singularities

Claus Hertling (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

μ -constant families of holomorphic function germs with isolated singularities are considered from a global perspective. First, a monodromy group from all families which contain a fixed singularity is studied. It consists of automorphisms of the Milnor lattice which respect not only the intersection form, but also the Seifert form and the monodromy. We conjecture that it contains all such automorphisms, modulo ± id . Second, marked singularities are defined and global moduli...

The Bourgain algebra of the disk algebra A(𝔻) and the algebra QA

Joseph Cima, Raymond Mortini (1995)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

It is shown that the Bourgain algebra A ( ) b of the disk algebra A() with respect to H ( ) is the algebra generated by the Blaschke products having only a finite number of singularities. It is also proved that, with respect to H ( ) , the algebra QA of bounded analytic functions of vanishing mean oscillation is invariant under the Bourgain map as is A ( ) b .

Quantum Singularity Theory for A ( r - 1 ) and r -Spin Theory

Huijun Fan, Tyler Jarvis, Yongbin Ruan (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We give a review of our construction of a cohomological field theory for quasi-homogeneous singularities and the r -spin theory of Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob. We further prove that for a singularity W of type A our construction of the stack of W -curves is canonically isomorphic to the stack of r -spin curves described by Abramovich and Jarvis. We further prove that our theory satisfies all the Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob axioms for an r -spin virtual class. Therefore, the Faber-Shadrin-Zvonkine...

Polarizations of Prym varieties for Weyl groups via abelianization

Herbert Lange, Christian Pauly (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let π : Z X be a Galois covering of smooth projective curves with Galois group the Weyl group of a simple and simply connected Lie group G . For any dominant weight λ consider the curve Y = Z / Stab ( λ ) . The Kanev correspondence defines an abelian subvariety P λ of the Jacobian of Y . We compute the type of the polarization of the restriction of the canonical principal polarization of Jac ( Y ) to P λ in some cases. In particular, in the case of the group E 8 we obtain families of Prym-Tyurin varieties. The main idea is...

The Brauer group and the Brauer–Manin set of products of varieties

Alexei N. Skorobogatov, Yuri G. Zahrin (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let X and Y be smooth and projective varieties over a field k finitely generated over Q , and let X ¯ and Y ¯ be the varieties over an algebraic closure of k obtained from X and Y , respectively, by extension of the ground field. We show that the Galois invariant subgroup of Br ( X ¯ ) Br( Y ¯ ) has finite index in the Galois invariant subgroup of Br ( X ¯ × Y ¯ ) . This implies that the cokernel of the natural map Br ( X ) Br ( Y ) Br ( X × Y ) is finite when k is a number field. In this case we prove that the Brauer–Manin set of the...

A class of non-rational surface singularities with bijective Nash map

Camille Plénat, Patrick Popescu-Pampu (2006)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

Let ( 𝒮 , 0 ) be a germ of complex analytic normal surface. On its minimal resolution, we consider the reduced exceptional divisor E and its irreducible components E i , i I . The Nash map associates to each irreducible component C k of the space of arcs through 0 on 𝒮 the unique component of E cut by the strict transform of the generic arc in C k . Nash proved its injectivity and asked if it was bijective. As a particular case of our main theorem, we prove that this is the case if E · E i &lt; 0 for any  i I . ...

Real deformations and invariants of map-germs

J. H. Rieger, M. A. S. Ruas, R. Wik Atique (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

A stable deformation f t of a real map-germ f : , 0 p , 0 is said to be an M-deformation if all isolated stable (local and multi-local) singularities of its complexification f t are real. A related notion is that of a good real perturbation f t of f (studied e.g. by Mond and his coworkers) for which the homology of the image (for n < p) or discriminant (for n ≥ p) of f t coincides with that of f C t . The class of map germs having an M-deformation is, in some sense, much larger than the one having a good...

On ramified covers of the projective plane II: Generalizing Segre’s theory

Michael Friedman, Rebecca Lehman, Maxim Leyenson, Mina Teicher (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

The classical Segre theory gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a plane curve to be a branch curve of a (generic) projection of a smooth surface in 3 . We generalize this result for smooth surfaces in a projective space of any dimension in the following way: given two plane curves, B and E , we give a necessary and sufficient condition for B to be the branch curve of a surface X in N and E to be the image of the double curve of a 3 -model of X . In the classical Segre theory, a...
