Detecting non-principal Weil divisors on normal varieties using curves

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$. Given any morphism $f:Y\to X$, there is a pullback homomorphism $f^*:\text{Cl}(X)\to\text{Cl}(Y)$, where $\text{Cl}(X)$ ...

Linear system on singular plane curve

Let $C \subset \mathbb{P}^2_k$ an irreducible plane curve of degree $d >1$ over algebraically closed field $k$. That is $C=V(f(x,y,z))$ where $f \in k[x,y,z]$ homogeneous of degree $d$. Let $\{...

Non-proper intersection between divisors on $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundle of Hirzebruch surfaces

We are working on algebraic closed field $k$. Let $\mathbb{F}_1$ be the Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb{P}(\mathcal{O}\oplus\mathcal{O}(-1))$, $C_0$ and $C_{\infty}$ are its zero and infinity sections ...

How to calculate the divisor given by closure of subscheme

Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}^N$ be a nonsingular projective variety over algebraically closed field which is embedded by very ample line bundle $\mathcal{L}$. Let $Y = \mathbb{P}(\mathcal{L}^{\oplus 3})$...

The morphisms induced by two Cartier divisors

Let X be a projective variety. We consider two Cartier divisors $D,E$ such that $E\geq D$ and the relative morphisms $\phi_D: X - - -> \mathbb{P}(H^0(X, O_X(D))^*)$ and $\phi_E: X- - -> \mathbb{...

Intersection with very ample divisor and linear equivalence

Let $X$ be a smooth, projective variety and $D, E$ two effective divisors of $X$ which correspond to distinct elements on the cohomology group $H^2(X,\mathbb{Q})$. Denote by $H$ a very ample divisor ...

Intersection product of $\mathbb{Q}$-Cartier divisors with irreducible complete curves is well-defined

I am learning the notion of intersection product of a $\mathbb{Q}$-Cartier divisor with an irreducible complete curve on a normal variety. The definition I learned is that if $D$ is a $\mathbb{Q}$-...

Intersection product when one factor is contained in the exceptional divisor

I am trying to calculate some intersection numbers and would appreciate help on the following problem: Consider two divisors $D_1$ and $D_2$. Blowing up their intersection yields $\varphi^{*}(D_i) = \...
