Recall that a hypersurface $D$ in a complex manifold $X$ is called a free divisor if the Lie algebroid $\mathcal{T}_X(-\log D)$ of vector fields tangent to $D$ is locally free. This condition is ...

I have a question regarding properties/characterizations of local Henselian rings exploited in M. Artin's article "On Isolated Rational Singularities of Surfaces": Here the relevant excerpt: Remark: ...

Let $X$ a curve over an algebraically closed field $k$ and $D$ a divisor on X. Fix an integer $N$ and a closed point $x$ on $X$, we assume that $\deg(D)$ is big enough such that we have a surjective ...

Let $X$ be a variety over a field $k$. For a closed subscheme $Z\hookrightarrow X$ and a closed point $x\in X$ such that $\text{codim}_XZ \geq 1$ and $x\notin |Z|$, is there an effective Cartier ...
