Small resolution of a non-isolated singularity?
Consider the the Hypersurface singularity given by the equation
$$xyz+st=0 \subset \mathbb{C}^5.$$
How would you describe a (nice!=symmetric) small-resolution of this singularity?

Serre's conditions under blow-ups, Blowup and normalization
Suppose $X = \mathbb{Z}[x, y, z]/(f,g)$ is a 2-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay surface. In particular, $X$ satisfies Serre's condition $S_2$. Suppose it is irreducible, reduced but not normal.

"Step-by-Step" toric resolution process?
WLOG the fan $\Sigma$ of our toric variety $X_{\Sigma}$ is simplicial. (So $X_{\Sigma}$ has at worst orbifold singularities and all cones $\sigma \in \Sigma$ are simplicial).
The classical toric ...

Crepant resolutions of ODP's on a 3-fold
It seems to be a well-known fact that if we have a 3-fold $X$ with only ODP singularities (ordinary double point) and a smooth Weil divisor $E$ passing through them, then by blowing-up $X$ along $E$ ...

springer resolution over $\wedge^3 \mathbb{C}^6$
The action of $GL_6$ on $P(\wedge^3 \mathbb{C}^6)=P^{19}$ has 4 orbits (of dim 19, 18, 14, 9). Can you describe how the springer resolution applies to each of these orbits? It should have positive ...

commuting the resolution of 1-dim singular locus and 0-dim singularities in a non isolated singularity of a surface
Let $X$ be a surface with a non isolated singularity $C = Sing(X)$ such that the curve $C$ has singularities itself. We can solve $Sing(X)$ by blowing up close points and by normalizing. Indeed, we ...

Vanishing associated to a resolution of singularities
Let $\pi: V\to W$ be a resolution of singularities, let $E \subset V$ be the exceptional divisor, and let $F$ be a coherent sheaf such that $R^i\pi_*F=0$ for $i>0$.
Can we conclude that $R^i\...
