Divisors whose restriction is big

Let $f:X\rightarrow Y$ be a flat morphism of smooth projective varieties, and $\mathcal{L}$ an effective and ample line bundle on $Y$. For a divisor $A\in H^0(Y,\mathcal{L})$ set $X_A := f^{-1}(A)$. ...

Global sections of multiples of a divisor

Let $D$ be an integral divisor on a smooth projective variety $X$. Consider the multiples $mD$ of $D$ for $m\geq 0$. Clearly, $h^0(X,mD) = 1$ for $m = 0$. Is there any example where $h^0(X,mD) = 0$ ...

Cohomology of tangent sheaf of a hypersurface

Let $X\subset\mathbb{P}^n$ be an irreducible and reduced hypersurface of degree $d$. How can one explicitly compute the dimension of the vector spaces $H^0(X,T_X),H^1(X,T_X),H^2(X,T_X)$? Here $T_X$ is ...
