We show birationality of the morphism associated to line bundles $L$ of type $(1,...,1,2,...,2,4,...,4)$ on a generic $g-$dimensional abelian variety into its complete linear system such that $h^0(L)=2^g$. When $g=3$, we describe the image of the abelian threefold and from the geometry of the moduli space $SU_C(2)$ in the linear system $|2θ_C|$, we obtain analogous results in $\p H^0(L)$.
We prove that vector bundles give equations of cactus varieties. We derive from it that equations coming from vector bundles are not enough to define secant varieties of Veronese varieties in general.
This is an expository article on the recent developments of Hodge theory on moduli spaces of smooth projective varieties with semi-ample canonical line bundles.
For any split totally degenerate abelian variety over a complete discrete valuation field, we construct a log abelian variety over the discrete valuation ring extending the given abelian variety. This generalizes the log Tate curve of Kato.
We use the toric degeneration of Bott-Samelson varieties and the description of cohomolgy of line bundles on toric varieties to deduce vanishings results for the cohomology of lines bundles on Bott-Samelson varieties.
Based on the Brieskorn-Slodowy-Grothendieck diagram, we write the holomorphic structures (or filtrations) of the ADE Lie algebra bundles over the corresponding type ADE flag varieties, over the cotangent bundles of these flag varieties, and over the corresponding type $ADE$ singular surfaces. The main tool is the cohomology of line bundles over flag varieties and their cotangent bundles.
We use a generalization of Horrocks monads for arithmetic Cohen-Macaulay (ACM) varieties to establish a cohomological characterization of linear and Steiner bundles over projective spaces and quadric hypersurfaces. We also study resolutions of bundles on ACM varieties by line bundles, and characterize linear homological dimension in the case of quadric hypersurfaces.
We generalize the results by Eisenbud and Schreyer about Ulrich bundles over Veronese varieties to Segre-Veronese varieties. We discuss the range where we have natural cohomology and we construct multigraded resolutions and monads for Ulrich bundles of any rank. Moreover we give cohomological characterizations for significant families of bundles.
In this paper, we investigate when there exists a wild hypersurface bundle over a smooth proper toric variety in positive characteristic. In particular, we determine the possibilities for toric varieties with Picard number at most three or toric Fano varieties of dimension at most four. Moreover, we can construct wild hypersurface bundles over them.
The automorphism group of a projective bundle P(E) over a simplicial toric variety is described when the bundle E is a direct sum of line bundles. Applications to study of moduli of complete intersections on toric varieties, including Calabi Yau m-folds and Del Pezzo surfaces, are indicated.
We give a simple combinatorial proof of the toric version of Mori's theorem that the only $n$-dimensional smooth projective varieties with ample tangent bundle are the projective spaces $\mathbb{P}^n$.
A horospherical variety is a normal algebraic variety where a connected reductive algebraic group acts with an open orbit isomorphic to a torus bundle over a flag variety. In this article we study the cohomology of line bundles on complete horospherical varieties.
We show that the moduli space of rank three toric vector bundles on smooth projective toric varieties satisfies Murphy's law, that is, every singularity type of finite type arises somewhere on this space.
We obtain characterizations and structure results for homogeneous principal bundles over abelian varieties, that generalize work of Miyanishi and Mukai on homogeneous vector bundles. For this, we rely on notions and methods of algebraic transformation groups, especially observable subgroups and anti-affine groups.
We classify the Ulrich vector bundles of arbitrary rank on smooth projective varieties of minimal degree. In the process, we prove the stability of the sheaves of relative differentials on rational scrolls.
We construct the fine moduli space of log abelian varieties with PEL structure, which gives a toroidal compactification of the moduli space of abelian varieties with PEL structure.
Any smooth projective variety contains many complete intersection subvarieties with ample cotangent bundles, of each dimension up to half its own dimension.
The main result of this paper concerns the positivity of the Hodge bundles of abelian varieties over global function fields. As applications, we obtain some partial results on the Tate--Shafarevich group and the Tate conjecture of surfaces over finite fields.
In this paper we characterize smooth complex projective varieties that admit a quadric bundle structure on some dense open subset in terms of the geometry of certain families of rational curves.
We systematically study the splitting of vector bundles on a smooth, projective variety, whose restriction to the zero locus of a regular section of an ample vector bundle splits. First, we find ampleness and genericity conditions which ensure that the splitting of the vector bundle along the subvariety implies its global splitting. Second, we obtain a simple splitting criterion for vector bundles on the Grassmannian and on partial flag varieties.
We analyze the relationship between abelian fourfolds of Weil type and Hodge structures of type K3, and we extend some of these correspondences to the case of arbitrary dimension.
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field. We show that $A$ is the automorphism group scheme of some smooth projective variety if and only if $A$ has only finitely many automorphisms as an algebraic group. This generalizes a result of Lombardo and Maffei for complex abelian varieties.
In this paper we study abelian varieties which correspond to CM points in the coarse moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties with multiplication by a maximal order in a quaternion algebra over a totally real number field. These are abelian varieties of even dimension with quaternion and complex multiplication. We describe them explicitly via isogenies to products of abelian varieties of smaller dimension together with estimates on the degree of the isogeny.
We construct examples to show that having nef cotangent bundle is not preserved under finite ramified covers. Our examples also show that a projective manifold with Stein universal cover may not have nef cotangent bundle, disproving a conjecture of Liu-Maxim-Wang.
I prove that a vector bundle on a minuscule homogeneous variety splits into a direct sum of line bundles if and only if its restriction to the union of two-dimensional Schubert subvarieties splits. A case-by-case analysis is done.
In this paper, using a generalization of the notion of Prym variety for covers of quasi-projective varieties, we prove a structure theorem for the Mordell-Weil group of the abelian varieties over function fields that are twists of Abelian varieties by Galois covers of irreducible quasi-projective varieties. In particular, the resutls we obtain contribute in the construction of Jacobians (of covers of the projective line) of high rank.
Algebra bundles, in the strict sense, appear in many areas of geometry and physics. However, the structure of an algebra is flexible enough to vary non-trivially over a connected base, giving rise to a structure of a weak algebra bundle. We will show that the notion of a weak algebra bundle is more natural than that of a strict algebra bundle. We will give necessary and sufficient conditions for weak algebra bundles to be locally trivial. The collection of non-trivial associative algebras of a fixed dimension forms a projective variety, called associator varieties. We will show that these vari…
We prove that the geometric Bogomolov conjecture for any abelian varieties is reduced to that for nowhere degenerate abelian varieties with trivial trace. In particular, the geometric Bogomolov conjecture holds for abelian varieties whose maximal nowhere degenerate abelian subvariety is isogenous to a constant abelian variety. To prove the results, we investigate closed subvarieties of abelian schemes over constant varieties, where constant varieties are varieties over a function field which can be defined over the constant field of the function field.
We study finite quotients of abelian varieties (fqav for short) i.e. quotients of abelian varieties by finite groups. We show that Q-abelian varieties (i.e. fqav's with $\mathbb Q$-linearly trivial canonical divisors) are characterized by the existence of quasiétale polarized (or int-amplified) endomorphisms. We show that every fqav has a finite quasiétale cover by the product of an abelian variety and a $\mathbb Q$-Fano fqav. Using such coverings, we give a characterization of $\mathbb Q$-Fano fqav's, and show that $\mathbb Q$-Fano fqav's and Q-abelian varieties are ``building blocks'' of gen…
We prove an elementary but somewhat unexpected result about projective embeddings of smooth varieties X whose cotangent bundles are numerically effective. Specifically, we show that the degree of X in any projective embedding must grow (almost) exponentially in the dimension of X.
We define Schwarzenberger bundles on any smooth projective variety X. We introduce the notions of jumping pairs of a Steiner bundle E on X and determine a bound for the dimension of its jumping locus. We completely classify Steiner bundles whose set of jumping pairs have maximal dimension, proving that they are all Schwarzenberger bundles.
In this paper we study the connection between rigid sheaves and separable-exceptional objects on Fano varieties over arbitrary fields. We give criteria for a rigid vector bundle on a Fano variety to be the direct sum of separable-exceptional bundles and for a separable-exceptional vector bundle to be part of a full separable-exceptional collection.
We generalize Horrocks' criterion for the splitting of vector bundles on projective space. We establish an analogous splitting criterion for vector bundles on a class of smooth complex projective varieties of dimension at least four, over which every extension of line bundles splits.
We extend the so called Chen-Jiang decomposition for pushforward of pluricanocanical bundles to abelian varieties to the setting of klt pairs. We also provide a geometric application of this decomposition.
In the mid 70's, Hartshorne conjectured that, for all n > 7, any rank 2 vector bundles on P^n is a direct sum of line bundles. This conjecture remains still open. In this paper, we construct indecomposable rank two vector bundles on a large class of Fano toric varieties. Unfortunately, this class does not contain P^n
For a semi-stable abelian variety A_K over a complete discrete valuation field K, we show that every finite subgroup scheme of A_K extends to a log finite flat group scheme over the valuation ring of K endowed with the canonical log structure. To achieve this, we first prove that every weak log abelian variety over an fs log scheme with its underlying scheme locally noetherian, is a sheaf for the Kummer flat topology, which answers a question of Chikara Nakayama. We also give several equivalent conditions defining isogenies of log abelian varieties.
I prove a crystalline characterization of abelian varieties in characteristic $p>0$ amongst the class of varieties with trivial tangent bundle. I show using my characterization that a smooth, projective, ordinary variety with trivial tangent bundle is an abelian variety if and only if its second crystalline cohomology is torsion free. I also show that a conjecture of Ke-Zheng Li about characteristic $p>0$ varieties with trivial tangent bundles is true for surfaces. I give a new proof of a result of Li and prove a refinement of it. Based on my characterization of abelian varieties I propose mod…
We study the birationality (onto its image) of the Abel-Prym morphism associated with a Prym-Tuyrin variety. We use such result to prove that Picard bundles over Prym varieties are simple and moreover they are stable when the Abel-Prym morphism is not birational. As a consequence we obtain that Picard bundles over moduli spaces of stable vector bundles with fixed determinant are simple. We prove that Picard bundles over moduli spaces of rank 2 vector bundles on curves of genus 2 bundles are stable.
In this article we prove new results on projective normality and normal presentation of adjunction bundle associated to an ample and globally generated line bundle on higher dimensional smooth projective varieties with nef canonical bundle. As one of the consequences of the main theorem, we give bounds on very ampleness and projective normality of pluricanonical linear systems on varieties of general type in dimensions three, four and five. These improve known such results.
We study smooth projective complex varieties with ample cotangent bundle. Our main result is that in an abelian variety of dimension n, a complete intersection of at least n/2 general hypersurfaces of sufficiently high degrees has ample cotangent bundle. We discuss the conjecture that the analogous statement should hold in the projective space. Finally, we present a construction due to Bogomolov of varieties with ample cotangent bundle as linear sections of a product of varieties with big cotangent bundle.
Lee and Pandharipande studied a "double point" algebraic cobordism theory of varieties equipped with vector bundles, and speculated that some features of that story might extend to the case of varieties with principal G-bundles. This note shows that this expectation holds rationally, and more generally after inverting the torsion index of the group, for reductive G. We show that (after inverting the torsion index) the full theory for bundles on varieties is an extension of scalars of standard algebraic cobordism, that the theory for a point is dual to Omega^*(BG), and describe how the theory f…
An automorphism of an abelian variety induces a decomposition of the variety up to isogeny. There are two such results, namely the isotypical decomposition and Roan's decomposition theorem. We show that they are essentially the same. Moreover, we generalize in a sense this result to abelian varieties with action of an arbitrary finite abelian group.
In this paper we improve our previous results on classification of groups of points on abelian varieties over finite fields. The classification is given in terms of the Weil polynomial of abelian varieties in a given $k$-isogeny class.
Under some conditions on the deformation type, which we expect to be satisfied for arbitrary irreducible symplectic varieties, we describe which big and nef line bundles on irreducible symplectic varieties have base divisors. In particular, we show that such base divisors are always irreducible and reduced. This is applied to understand the behaviour of divisorial base components of big and nef line bundles under deformations and for K3$^{[n]}$-type and Kum$^n$-type.
In this note we study properties of partially ample line bundles on simplicial projective toric varieties. We prove that the cone of q-ample line bundles is a union of rational polyhedral cones, and calculate these cones in examples. We prove a restriction theorem for big q-ample line bundles, and deduce that q-ampleness of the anticanonical bundle is not invariant under flips. Finally we prove a Kodaira-type vanishing theorem for q-ample line bundles.
We introduce the notion of abelian solutions of the 2D Toda lattice equations and the bilinear discrete Hirota equation and show that all of them are algebro-geometric.
