Hironaka's proof of resolution of singularities in positive characteristics
Recent publication of Hironaka seems to provoke extended discussions, like Atiyah's proof of almost complex structure of $S^6$ earlier...
Unlike Atiyah's paper, Hironaka's paper does not have a ...

Resolution graph of higher dimensional ADE singularities
I am looking for different configurations of the exceptional divisors arising from blowing up a higher dimensional ADE singularity (see p. 240 of this article of Bruns for a description of such ...

Embedding of a smooth variety into a complete smooth variety.
Consider the following fact from algebraic geometry:
Any (complex) smooth algebraic variety can be embedded into a complete smooth variety as a locally closed set.
I know how to prove this fact ...

Examples of explicit computations of log-resolutions
I have been working with log-resolutions lately and learning more about them. I am aware that in general producing explicit log-resolutions is difficult, but I was wondering if this has been done in ...

Resolution of pairs in characteristic p
Let $R$ be a complete DVR of characteristic $p$, say $R=\mathbb{F}_p[[t]]$, and $X$ be a reduced scheme of finite type over $R$. Let also $X_s$ denote the special fiber of $X$. If I understand ...

Reference for certain resolution of singularities formulation
I want to use the following resolution of singularity statment as found in Soule et al, Lectures on Arakelov Geometry, p. 40:
$Y$ is a separated algebraic variety of finite type over $\mathbb{C}$, $Z$...

Relative compactification without resolutions of singularities
Let $Y$ be a smooth proper variety over a field $k$, let $X$ be a smooth variety over $k$, $U\hookrightarrow X$ the complement of a strict normal crossing divisor and $\phi\colon U\to Y$ a map. By ...

Is dimension invariant under blow-ups?
Let $X'\rightarrow X$ be a blow-up of a finitely dimensional scheme $X$ in a center $D$.
Under which assumptions one has $\dim X'=\dim X$? Do you know a proof or a reference for a proof? Do you know ...
