Behavior of divisors under push forward and pull back
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 ...

Push-forward of divisors and intersections
Let $f:X\rightarrow Y$ be a surjective finite morphism of varieties, with $X$ normal and $Y$ smooth. Let $D\subset X$ be a divisor and $C\subset Y$ a curve. Does the equality
$$C\cdot f_{*}D = f^{*}C\...
