On Varieties Generated by Minimal Complex Semigroups

A semigroup is complex if it generates a variety the subvariety lattice of which contains an isomorphic copy of every finite lattice. It is known that a complex semigroup has at least four elements and that up to isomorphism and anti-isomorphism, there are four complex semigroups of order four. Subvarieties of the varieties generated by two of these four minimal complex semigroups have previously been described. To complete the study, we describe subvarieties of the varieties generated by the remaining two semigroups.

Desingularizations of quiver Grassmannians via graded quiver varieties

Inspired by recent work of Cerulli, Feigin and Reineke on desingularizations of quiver Grassmannians of representations of Dynkin quivers, we obtain desingularizations in considerably more general situations and in particular for Grassmannians of modules over iterated tilted algebras of Dynkin type. Our desingularization map is constructed from Nakajima's desingularization map for graded quiver varieties.     

Structure of node polynomials for curves on surfaces

We provide a structural generalization of a theorem by Kleiman–Piene, concerning the enumerative geometry of nodal curves in a complete linear system on a smooth projective surface S. Provided that r, the number of nodes, is sufficiently small compared to the ampleness of the linear system, we show that, under certain assumptions, the number of r‐nodal curves passing through points in general position on S is given by a Bell polynomial in universally defined integers which we identify, using classical intersection theory, as linear, integral polynomials evaluated in four basic Chern numbers. Furthermore, we provide a decomposition of the as a sum of three terms with distinct geometric interpretations, and discuss the relationship between these polynomials and Kazarian's Thom polynomials for multisingularities of maps.     

A refinement of the Hodge stratification for connected reductive groups

For connected reductive groups G over a finite extension F of and L the maximal unramified extension of F we study the sets of elements with given Hodge points . We explain the relationship to stratifications of some moduli scheme of abelian varieties defined by Goren and Oort respectively Andreatta and Goren. We show that for sufficiently large N the Newton point is constant on the sets and compute such N for certain classes of groups.     

Integral models in unramified mixed characteristic (0, 2) of hermitian orthogonal Shimura varieties of PEL type,Part II

We construct relative PEL type embeddings in mixed characteristic (0, 2) between hermitian orthogonal Shimura varieties of PEL type. We use this to prove the existence of integral canonical models in unramified mixed characteristic (0, 2) of hermitian orthogonal Shimura varieties of PEL type.     

Algebra-geometry of piecewise algebraic varieties

Algebraic variety is the most important subject in classical algebraic geometry. As the zero set of multivariate splines, the piecewise algebraic variety is a kind generalization of the classical algebraic variety. This paper studies the correspondence between spline ideals and piecewise algebraic varieties based on the knowledge of algebraic geometry and multivariate splines.     

Hyperbolicity of unitary involutions

We prove the so-called Unitary Hyperbolicity Theorem,a result on hyperbolicity of unitary involutions.The analogous previously known results for the orthogonal and symplectic involutions are formal consequences of the unitary one.While the original proofs in the orthogonal and symplectic cases were based on the incompressibility of generalized Severi-Brauer varieties,the proof in the unitary case is based on the incompressibility of their Weil transfers.
