Varieties connected by curves in projective spaces of small dimension
Let $X\subset\mathbb{P}^N$ be an irreducible complex variety. Fix an integer $a\geq 2$ and call $P_a$ the following property: given $x_1,\dots,x_a\in X$ general points there exists an irreducible ...

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 $\text{Cl}(X)$ ...

Intersection multiplicity of limit linear spaces
Let $X\subset\mathbb{P}^N$ be a smooth projective variety. Let us fix a general point $q \in X$, and let $C\subseteq X$ be a smooth curve passing through $q$.
Now let $\Lambda_{\xi, q}$, with $\xi \...
