Given a morphism between normal varieties $f: X \to Y$, we can push forward a Cartier divisor $D$ to get a cycle $f_* D$. On the other hand, we can form the line bundle $\mathscr{L}(D)$ and push that ...

Suppose $x,y,w,z$ are homogeneous coordinates of $\mathbb{CP}^3$, and \begin{eqnarray} X_t := \left(F_t = x f_2 +y g_2 +t F_3 = 0 \right) \end{eqnarray} be a family of degree 3 hypersurfaces in $\...

All varieties are over algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $S$ be a smooth projective surface. Let $D$ be an irreducible divisor on $S$, $H$ be another divisor and $Z\subset S$ be a ...
