Singularities of fibrations in conics
Consider a rank two vector bundle $E = \mathcal{O}(a)\oplus \mathcal{O}(b)\oplus \mathcal{O}(c)$ over $\mathbb{P}^1$. Fix coordinates $u_0,u_1$ on the base $\mathbb{P}^1$ and $v_0,v_1,v_2$ on the ...

Definition of canonical pair
Let $(X,D)$ be a pair and $f:Y\rightarrow X$ a log resolution. Write
$$
K_Y + \widetilde{D} = f^{*}(K_X) + \sum_{i}a_iE_i
$$
where $\widetilde{D}$ is the strict transform of $D$. I found the following ...

Is this quotient of $\mathbb{C}^{m+1}$ by $U(1)$ only "nice" for $m=1$?
Let $V^{m+1} = \mathbb{C}^{m+1}$ and let $U(1)$ act on it by its diagonal representation, so that really, it is just like scalar multiplication by a unit modulus complex number.
I am interested in the ...

Blowing-up a non reduced fiber
Let $X\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^2$ be a smooth conic bundle with a non reduced fiber $F$, and $\widetilde{X}$ the blow-up of $X$ along $F$ with exceptional divisor $F\times\mathbb{P}^1$.
I expect $\...

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 ...

Which weighted projective spaces (and their finite quotients) are local complete intersections?
Let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $\textrm{Gl}_{n+1}(k)$ (where $k$ is an algebraically closed field). My question is: do there exist examples of $G$ such that the corresponding quotient $P$ of $\mathbb{...

projective map from $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}$
Suppose I have a morphism $f:\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n} \to \mathbb{P}^N$ birational onto its image, and I know exactly what $F$-curves are contracted (or "dually", what divisors are contracted). ...

I am looking for a proof/reference of the following simple fact, which I think it holds true.
Let $S\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ be a surface embedded by a very ample linear system. Then I know that the ...
