In a projective space $\mathbb{P}^{k+2}$ consider two complementary subspaces $\mathbb{P}^1,\mathbb{P}^k$, and let $C\subset\mathbb{P}^k$ be a degree $k$ rational normal curve. Fixed an isomorphism $\...

Let $f:X\rightarrow Y$ be a finite morphism between smooth projective varieties, and let $D$ be an effective nef but not ample divisor on $X$. Consider the divisor $f_{*}D$ on $Y$. Is $f_{*}D$ nef ...

Let $Z$ be a subvariety of an irreducible projective variety $X$, and let $i:Z\rightarrow X$ be the inclusion. Let $N_1(X),N_1(Z)$ be the $\mathbb{Q}$-vector spaces of curves in $X$ and $Z$ ...

Let $p_1,p_2,p_3\in\mathbb{P}^n$ be three general points, $X$ the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^n$ at $p_1,p_2,p_3$, then along the lines $\left\langle p_i,p_j\right\rangle$, and finally along the plane $\...
