Generic simple coverings of the affine plane
This is an introduction to geography of log models with applications to positive cones of Fano type (FT) varieties and to geometry of minimal models and Mori fibrations.
We first prove a strengthening of Miyaoka’s generic semi-positivity theorem: the quotients of the tensor powers of the cotangent bundle of a non-uniruled complex projective manifold have a pseudo-effective (instead of generically nef) determinant. A first consequence is that is of general type if its cotangent bundle contains a subsheaf with ‘big’ determinant. Among other applications, we deduce that if the universal cover of is not covered by compact positive-dimensional analytic subsets,...
We prove the existence of global minimal models for endomorphisms of projective space defined over the field of fractions of a principal ideal domain.
Le groupe de Cremona est connexe en toute dimension et, muni de sa topologie, il est simple en dimension .
Il y a quelques années, Florian Pop a démontré que tout corps de type fini sur le corps premier est déterminé à isomorphisme près par son groupe de Galois absolu (quitte à passer à une extension purement inséparable en caractéristique positive). Ce théorème, dont la généalogie remonte à des travaux de Neukirch sur les groupes de Galois de corps de nombres au début des années 1970, répond positivement à la “conjecture anabélienne birationnelle”de A. Grothendieck formulée en 1983. Dans un travail...
On a general quasismooth well-formed weighted hypersurface of degree Σi=14 a i in ℙ(1, a 1, a 2, a 3, a 4), we classify all pencils whose general members are surfaces of Kodaira dimension zero.
We attach a limit mixed Hodge structure to any polynomial map . The equivariant Hodge numbers of this mixed Hodge structure are invariants of which reflect its asymptotic behaviour. We compute them for a generic class of polynomials in terms of equivariant Hodge numbers attached to isolated hypersurface singularities and equivariant Hodge numbers of cyclic coverings of projective space branched along a hypersurface. We show how these invariants allow to determine topological invariants of such...
We recall first Mather's Lemma providing effective necessary and sufficient conditions for a connected submanifold to be contained in an orbit. We show that two homogeneous polynomials having isomorphic Milnor algebras are right-equivalent.
