Discrepancy of general element of linear system
Let $X$ be a normal scheme and $|D|$ a linear system on $X$.
In "Singularity of Minimal Model Program" by Janos kollar p249, it says,
If $X$ is a variety over $\mathbb{C}$, and $E_j$ ...

Singularities of curves over DVRs with non-reduced special fibre
Let $R$ be a complete DVR of mixed characteristic with fraction field $K$ of characteristic $0$ and residue field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Suppose that $\mathcal{X}$ is a normal $R$-curve such ...

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 ...

Separable morphism of curves
A proof from Janos Kollar's Lectures on Resolution of Singularities Kollar (p 37) works as follows:
Theorem 1.58 (M. Noether, 1871). Let $k$ be an algebraically closed
field and $C \subset \...

Bijective restriction of the normalization morphism
Let $X$ be an integral separated scheme of finite type over $\mathbb{C}$. Consider the normalization morphism $f:X'\rightarrow X$. Can we always find an affine open $U\subset X'$ such that $f|_U:U\...

Base change of a finite morphism
Let $X$, $Y$, $Z$ be integral schemes of finite type over a field $K$ (i.e., locally affine opens are finitely-generated algebras over $K$). Suppose we have the following condition$\colon$
$f \colon ...

Are the fibers of this morphism geometrically regular?
Let $A\rightarrow B$ be a local morphism of complete noetherian rings making $B$ a formally smooth $A$-algebra. Does the induced morphism $\textrm{Spec}(B)\to\textrm{Spec}(A)$ have geometrically ...

Which schemes can be presented as limits of smooth varieties?
I can prove a certain statement for any scheme that can be presented as the limit of an essentially affine (filtering) projective system of smooth varieties over a perfect field such the connecting ...
