We observe that an interesting method to produce non-complete intersection subvarieties, the generalized complete intersections from L. Anderson and coworkers, can be understood and made explicit by using standard Cech cohomology machinery. We include a worked example of a generalized complete intersection Calabi-Yau threefold.
The aim of this note is to give a simple definition of genus zero virtual orientation classes (or fundamental classes) for projective complete intersections or, more generally, for complete intersections in convex varieties, and to prove a push forward formula for them.
This paper will give some examples of diffeomorphic complex 5-dimensional complete intersections and remarks on these examples. Then a result on the existence of diffeomorphic complete intersections that belong to components of the moduli space of different dimensions will be given as a supplement to the results of P.Brückmann (J. reine angew. Math. 476 (1996), 209-215; 525 (2000), 213-217).
We prove an existence theorem for jet differentials on complete intersection varieties that generalizes a theorem of S. Diverio. We also show that one can readily deduce hyperbolicity for generic complete intersections of high multidegree from earlier work of Diverio-Merker-Rousseau and Diverio-Trapani. And finally we prove the numerical aspect of a conjecture of O. Debarre.
We consider a class of Calabi-Yau compactifications which are constructed as a complete intersection in weighted projective space. For manifolds with one Kähler modulus we construct the mirror manifolds and calculate the instanton sum.
In this paper we show how some known weak forms of the Zilber--Pink conjecture can be strengthened by combining them with the Mordell--Lang conjecture or its variants. We illustrate this idea by proving some theorems on atypical intersections in the semiabelian and modular settings. Given a "finitely generated" set $Γ$ with a certain structure, we consider $Γ$-special subvarieties -- weakly special subvarieties containing a point of $Γ$ -- and show that every variety $V$ contains only finitely many maximal $Γ$-atypical subvarieties, i.e. atypical intersections of $V$ with $Γ$-special varieties…
In this paper we calculate the elliptic genus of certain complete intersections in products of projective spaces. We show that it is equal to the elliptic genus of the Landau-Ginzburg models that are, according to Hori and Vafa, mirror partners of these complete intersections. This provides additional evidence of the validity of their construction.
We identify a class of autoequivalences of triangulated categories of singularities associated with Calabi-Yau complete intersections in toric varieties. Elements of this class satisfy relations that are directly linked to the toric data.
We prove two conjectures on weighted complete intersections and give the complete classification of threefold weighted complete intersections in weighted projective space that are canonically or anticanonically embedded.
We obtain criteria for detecting complete intersections in projective varieties. Motivated by a conjecture of Hartshorne concerning subvarieties of projective spaces, we investigate situations when two-codimensional smooth subvarieties of rational homogeneous varieties are complete intersections.
We show that measures of irrationality on very general codimension two complete intersections and very general complete intersection surfaces are multiplicative in the degrees of the defining equations. This confirms some cases of a conjecture of Bastianelli, De Poi, Ein, Lazarsfeld, and Ullery. Our methods involve studying the numerical invariants of curves on complete intersections.
We provide a general method for computing rational Chow rings of moduli of smooth complete intersections. We specialize this result in different ways: to compute the integral Picard group of the associated stack ; to obtain an explicit presentation of rational Chow rings of moduli of smooth complete intersections of codimension two; to prove old and new results on moduli of smooth curves of genus $\leq 5$ and polarized K3 surfaces of degree $\leq 8$.
We prove that a smooth well formed Picard rank one Fano complete intersection of dimension at least 2 in a toric variety is a weighted complete intersection.
We review the theory of combinatorial intersection cohomology of fans developed by Barthel-Brasselet-Fieseler-Kaup, Bressler-Lunts, and Karu. This theory gives a substitute for the intersection cohomology of toric varieties which has all the expected formal properties but makes sense even for non-rational fans, which do not define a toric variety. As a result, a number of interesting results on the toric $g$ and $h$ polynomials have been extended from rational polytopes to general polytopes. We present explicit complexes computing the combinatorial IH in degrees one and two; the degree two com…
We discuss conditions for complete intersections in a toric variety which allow to compute Hodge numbers if the complete intersection is a quasi-smooth complete variety. A preliminary step is the computation of the Euler characteristic of differential forms, we also look at symmetric or arbitrary forms instead of the usual alternating ones.
We calculate a Griffiths-type ring for smooth complete intersection in Grassmannians. This is the analogue of the classical Jacobian ring for complete intersections in projective space, and allows us to explicitly compute their Hodge groups.
We discuss and prove a number of cohomological results for Milnor fibers, real links, and complex links of local complete intersections with singularities of arbitrary dimension.
We count the number of conics through two general points in complete intersections when this number is finite and give an application in terms of quasi-lines.
Any smooth projective variety contains many complete intersection subvarieties with ample cotangent bundles, of each dimension up to half its own dimension.
We generalize the results of Clemens, Ein, and Voisin regarding rational curves and zero cycles on generic projective complete intersections to the logarithmic setup.
Generalizing the notions of reflexive polytopes and nef-partitions of Batyrev and Borisov, we propose a mirror symmetry construction for Calabi-Yau complete intersections in Fano toric varieties.
We deform monomial space curves in order to construct examples of set-theoretical complete intersection space curve singularities. As a by-product we describe an inverse to Herzog's construction of minimal generators of non-complete intersection numerical semigroups with three generators.
In this paper, we show that general Fano complete intersections over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristics are separably rationally connected. Our proof also implies that general log Fano complete intersections with smooth tame boundary divisors admit very free $A^1$-curves.
A multiple (loc. Cohen Macaulay) structure, X, on a space curve C in P3 is said to be primitive if X is locally contained in a smooth surface. We give numerical conditions for C to be a "primitive" set theoretic complete intersection (i.e. to have a primitive multiple structure which is a complete intersection).
We propose a new definition of the elliptic genera for complete intersections, not necessarily nonsingular, in projective spaces. We also prove they coincide with the expressions obtained from Landau-Ginzburg model by an elementary argument.
Let X be a smooth complete intersection. Suppose p and q are general points of X, we consider conics in X passing through p and q. We show the moduli space of these conics is a smooth complete intersection. The main ingredients of the proof are a criterion for characterizing when a smooth projective variety is a complete intersection, the Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem and the geometry of the spaces of conics.
In 1997 Batyrev, Ciocan-Fontanine, Kim, and van Straten suggested a construction of Landau--Ginzburg models for Fano complete intersections in Grassmannians similar to Givental's construction for complete intersections in smooth toric varieties. We show that for a Fano complete intersection in Grassmannians the result of the above construction is birational to a complex torus. In other words, the complete intersections under consideration have very weak Landau--Ginzburg models.
We investigate the relation between codimension two smooth complete intersections in a projective space and some naturally associated graded algebras. We give some examples of log-concave polynomials and we propose two conjectures for these algebras.
We prove that generic complete intersections associated to multiple mirror nef-partitions are all birational. This result solves a conjecture by Batyrev and Nill under some mild assumptions.
We present a construction of noncommutative double mirrors to complete intersections in toric varieties. This construction unifies existing sporadic examples and explains the underlying combinatorial and physical reasons for their existence.
It is proven that any structure of a fibre space into varieties of Kodaira dimension zero on a generic Fano complete intersection of index one and dimension $M$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$ for $M\geq 2k+1$ is a pencil of hyperplane sections. We also describe $K$-trivial structures on varieties with a pencil of Fano complete intersections.
The famous $4n^2$-inequality is extended to generic complete intersection singularities: it is shown that the multiplicity of the self-intersection of a mobile linear system with a maximal singularity is higher than $4n^2μ$, where $μ$ is the multiplicity of the singular point.
There is a strange duality between the quadrangle isolated complete intersection singularities discovered by the first author and C.T.C.Wall. We derive this duality from the mirror symmetry, the Berglund-Hübsch transposition of invertible polynomials, and our previous results about the strange duality between hypersurface and complete intersection singularities using matrix factorizations of size two.
Using localization methods on the moduli space of stable quasimaps to Grassmannian, we give explicit formulas of $J$-function and double $J$-function of stable quasimaps for complete intersection in Grassmannian.
We construct an explicit homotopy formula for the d-bar complex on a complete intersection subvariety V in CP^n. This formula can be interpreted as a Hodge-type decomposition for residual currents on V.
We provide enumerative formulas for the degrees of varieties parameterizing hypersurfaces and complete intersections which contain pro-jective subspaces and conics. Besides, we find all cases where the Fano scheme of the general complete intersection is irregular of dimension at least 2, and for the Fano surfaces we deduce formulas for their holomorphic Euler characteristic.
The goal of this paper is first of all to propose a strategy to attack the generalized Hodge conjecture for coniveau 2 complete intersections, and secondly to state a conjecture concerning the cones of effective cycle classes in intermediate dimensions. Our main results show that the generalized Hodge conjecture for coniveau 2 complete intersections would follow from a particular case of this effectiveness conjecture.
With an explicit example, we confirm a conjecture by Neumann and Wahl that there exist cusps with no Galois cover by a complete intersection. Some computational techniques are reviewed, and a method for deciding whether a given cusp has a complete intersection Galois cover is developed.
In this paper we completely characterize lattice ideals that are complete intersections or equivalently complete intersections finitely generated semigroups of $\bz^n\oplus T$ with no invertible elements, where $T$ is a finite abelian group. We also characterize the lattice ideals that are set-theoretic complete intersections on binomials.
We bound the genus of a projective curve lying on a complete intersection surface in terms of its degree and the degrees of the defining equations of the surface on which it lies.
