I am trying to extract a particular, more lightweight and more focussed at the same time, case of my recent question Which of the physics dualities are closest in essence to the Spanier-Whitehead ...

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective variety over $\mathbb C$, $Y_1, Y_2$ are two closed smooth subvarieties. Assume $X-Y_1 \cong X-Y_2$, what do $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ have in common (at least ...

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective curve and $f \colon X \to Y$ an étale Galois cover, whose Galois group $G$ is finite and of order $r$. For any $g \in G$, define $$\Delta_g = \{(x, \, g \cdot x) ...

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 $\...

Let $M$ be a non compact complex surface and S an embedded compact Riemann surface in $M$. I already know how to show the following equality of fiber bundle: $$\Omega^2_{M}|S =\Omega^1_S \otimes N^*_S$...

Let S be a projective non-singular surface and D a Cartier divisor which has a smooth representative. Can the Betti numbers of S-D be represented by the Betti numbers of S and D? In a paper $b_i(S-D)=...
