Explicit expression of simultaneous resolution of semi-universal deformation of ADE singularity

Denote the semi-universal deformation of ADE singularity by $\mathcal{Y}\to\mathfrak{h}^{\mathbb{C}}/W$, where $\mathfrak{h}^{\mathbb{C}}$ is the complex Cartan algebra of root system of type ADE and $...

Cohomology of tangent sheaf of a singular hypersurface

Let $X\subset\mathbb{P}^n$ be a hypersurface singular at finitely many points $p_i\in X$. We may assume that $X$ has ordinary singularities at the $p_i$'s. Does there exists a formula, perhaps in ...

Globalization of Brieskorn-Grothendieck resolution

Brieskorn (1970) showed that for semiuniversal deformation of rational double points surface singularities $X\to S$, there is a finite base change $S'\to S$, such that the new family $f:X\times_{S}S'\...

Infinitesimal deformation of strict transform

Let $X$ be an affine, complex surface with isolated singularities and $\pi:\widetilde{X} \to X$ be a resolution of singularities (not necessarily minimal) i.e., $\widetilde{X}$ is non-singular and $\...

On Remmerts reduction

Let $(X,0)$ be a normal surface singularity. An let $\pi: \tilde{X} \to X$ be the minimal resolution. Now, we can apply a result of Oliveira (exploiting previous work by Laufer) and obtain a 1-...

Hodge numbers of a Calabi-Yau 3-fold via deformation theory

In their paper "Calabi-Yau 3-folds and Moduli of Abelian Surfaces I", Gross and Popescu calculate the hodge numbers of smooth CY 3-folds obtained in the following way (see Remark 4.11 of their paper): ...

Simultaneous resolution of singularities in special cases of flat families of projective varieties

Let $\pi:\mathcal{X} \to B$ be a flat family of projective varieties. Assume that $B$ is irreducible. Suppose that $\mathcal{X}$ is smooth except for a closed subscheme, say $Y$ which is isomorphic to ...
