Non-Archimedean integrals and stringy Euler numbers of log-terminal pairs

Victor V. Batyrev (1999)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Using non-Archimedian integration over spaces of arcs of algebraic varieties, we define stringy Euler numbers associated with arbitrary Kawamata log-terminal pairs. There is a natural Kawamata log-terminal pair corresponding to an algebraic variety V having a regular action of a finite group G . In this situation we show that the stringy Euler number of this pair coincides with the physicists’ orbifold Euler number defined by the Dixon-Harvey-Vafa-Witten formula. As an application, we prove a conjecture...

Non-embeddable 1 -convex manifolds

Jan Stevens (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We show that every small resolution of a 3-dimensional terminal hypersurface singularity can occur on a non-embeddable 1 -convex manifold.We give an explicit example of a non-embeddable manifold containing an irreducible exceptional rational curve with normal bundle of type ( 1 , - 3 ) . To this end we study small resolutions of c D 4 -singularities.

Numerical character of the effectivity of adjoint line bundles

Frédéric Campana, Vincent Koziarz, Mihai Păun (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this note we show that, for any log-canonical pair ( X , Δ ) , K X + Δ is -effective if its Chern class contains an effective -divisor. Then, we derive some direct corollaries.
