Consider a birational morphism between smooth projective varieties $f:X\to Y$. I would like to understand the behavior of push-pull/pull-push of effective divisors under $f$. I know that if $D$ is an ...

Let $\varphi\colon X_1\to X_2$ be dominant proper morphism of finite degree (in particular $\dim X_1=\dim X_2$) between varieties. Let $D \subset X_2$ be a Cartier divisor. Is it true that $$\varphi_*...
