Intersection theory on normal crossing algebraic surfaces

Let $X$ be an algebraic surface with normal crossing singularities. Suppose the singular locus of $X$ is a smooth curve. Let us denote it by $C$. Suppose $D$ is another smooth curve in $X$ which ...

A question on the Chow group on stacks

Let $X$ be a separated Deligne-Mumford stack finite type over the ground field. Then there is a Chow group $A_*(X)$ of $X$ which is well-behaved under flat pull-back, defined as follows. Let $\...

How to compute the class defined by intersection with a square?

$\DeclareMathOperator\Gr{Gr}$Let $\Gr(k,n+k)$ (of course, one can do also for $\Gr(k,\infty)$) be the complex Grassmannian of $k$-planes in $n+k$-dimensional linear space. It is well-known that ...

Functoriality of Chern-Fulton's class

Let $X$ be a, possibly singular, algebraic variety embedded as a closed subvariety of a manifold $M$ with map $i : X \rightarrow M$, and $\pi : \tilde{M} \rightarrow M$ be a proper birational map with ...

$ch(L f^*\epsilon)$

I know the famous principle (or theorem depending on how you define) of Chern classes for locally free sheaves and a morphism $f: X'\rightarrow X$, $ch(f^* \epsilon)=f^* ch(\epsilon)$. But if $f$ ...

Zero Dimension Intersection

Let $M$ be smooth and purely $r$-dimensional, $E$ be a vector bundle of rank $r$ over $M$, $s$ be a regular section of $E$ and $Z$ the zero scheme of $s$. Then $[Z]$ is dual to the top Chern class $...

Action of an isomorphism in cohomology as the intersection with the class of the graph

Let $X$ and $Y$ be two complex manifolds of dimension 2 and let $\varphi:X\rightarrow Y$ be an isomorphism. I have read that the action of $\varphi^*:H^2(Y,\mathbb{Z})\rightarrow H^2(X,\mathbb{Z})$ ...

euler class of the normal bundle and self intersection number [duplicate]

Let $S$ be a compact submanifold of $X$ smooth manifold. I know that $T_X|_S=T_S\oplus N_{S/X}$ where $N_{S/X}$ is the normal bundle. I have read that the euler class $e(N_{S/X})$ corresponds (via ...

Non-vanishing of cup product in cohomology

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $\mathbb{C}$, and let $\alpha \in H^{2k}(X)$ be an algebraic cohomology class. Let us fix an $l$ such that $H^l(X) \neq 0$ and $H^{l+2k}(X) \neq 0$. The ...
