Resolution of singularities for flat families.
Is there a resolution of singularities for flat families?
More precisely, if $X \rightarrow \mathbb{A} ^n$ is a flat map, does there exist a map $Y \rightarrow X$ such that, for every $p \in \mathbb{...

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 ...

Equivariant resolution of singularities
I am looking for some references on equivariant resolution of singularities. In most references quoted on mathoverflow (for instance : Reference on an equivariant resolution of singularities), they ...

Singularities of fibrations
Let $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^2$ be a fibration, here $X$ is a projective variety of dimension three.
Assume that there exixts a smooth curve $C\subset\mathbb{P}^2$ such that for any $p\in\mathbb{P}...

Cone over the Veronese surface
Let $V\subset\mathbb{P}^5$ be the Veronese surface and let $X\subset\mathbb{P}^6$ be the cone over it. Since $X$ is $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial there are two integers $a,b$ such that $aK_X = \mathcal{O}_X(...

Intuition behind RDP (Rational Double Points)
Let $S$ be a surface (so a $2$-dimensional proper $k$-scheme) and $s$ a singular point which is a rational double point.
One common characterisation of a RDP is that under sufficient conditions there ...

Locally toric resolutions of compactifications
Suppose $U$ is a smooth, open $n$-dimensional variety over $\mathbb{C}.$ Say $X, X'$ are two proper normal-crossings compactifications of $U$. Call a map $m: X'\to X$ a modification if it is an ...

Strict transform under resolution of singularity along a singular $\mathbb{Q}$-Cartier divisor
$\DeclareMathOperator\Bl{Bl}$Let $f: Y=\Bl_0^\omega(\mathbb{C}^3)\to \mathbb{C}^3$ be a weighted blow up of $\mathbb{C}^3$ with weights $w(x,y,z)=(1,1,2)$. Then $Y$ and the exceptional divisor $E\cong ...
