A characterziation of IPn by vector bundles.
We present a class of counterexamples to the Cancellation Problem over arbitrary commutative rings, using non-free stably free modules and locally nilpotent derivations.
Let be a germ of complex analytic normal surface. On its minimal resolution, we consider the reduced exceptional divisor and its irreducible components , . The Nash map associates to each irreducible component of the space of arcs through on the unique component of cut by the strict transform of the generic arc in . 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 for any .
In this paper we classify rank two Fano bundles on Fano manifolds satisfying . The classification is obtained via the computation of the nef and pseudoeffective cones of the projectivization , that allows us to obtain the cohomological invariants of and . As a by-product we discuss Fano bundles associated to congruences of lines, showing that their varieties of minimal rational tangents may have several linear components.
The aim of this paper is to construct open sets with good quotients by an action of a reductive group starting with a given family of sets with good quotients. In particular, in the case of a smooth projective variety X with Pic(X) = 𝒵, we show that all open sets with good quotients that embed in a toric variety can be obtained from the family of open sets with projective good quotients. Our method applies in particular to the case of Grassmannians.
The aim of this paper is to compare two modules of elliptic units, which arise in the study of elliptic curves E over quadratic imaginary fields K with complex multiplication by , good ordinary reduction above a split prime p and prime power conductor (over K). One of the modules is a special case of those modules of elliptic units studied by K. Rubin in his paper [Invent. Math. 103 (1991)] on the two-variable main conjecture (without p-adic L-functions), and the other module is a smaller one,...
