How the complex conjugation on sheaves of modules is defined?

(Probably some basic question, but I've never worked in the real world.) Let $X\subset\mathbb{P}^n_\mathbb{C}$ be a complex variety with the complex conjugation $\tau:X\to X$. So $\tau$ acts on $\mat …

How the multi-rank of a torsion free sheaf on a non-reduced scheme is defined?

Suppose X is a pure dimensional projective complex scheme, reducible and non-reduced but without embedded components of lower dimension. Let $X=\cup X_i$ be the decomposition such that $X_i$ is set-t …

Is there some short formula for the "defect" of Hilbert function

Let $X\subset\Bbb P^n_{\Bbb C}$ be a connected, Cohen Macaulay sub-scheme. (Possibly singular, reducible or non-reduced.) For $k\gg0$ the numbers $h^0(\mathcal{O}_X(k))$ depend polynomially on $k$. De …

Some questions on blowups, strict transforms and its deformation

Let $Z\subseteq Sing(X)\subset M$, where all objects are complex reduced and projective, moreover $Z$ and $M$ are smooth. Consider the strict transform $\tilde{X}\subset Bl_Z M$. If all the singular …

hyperplane sections of isolated hypersurface singularities.

Not clear why do you want only the hyperplane sections (and not all the smooth hypersurface sections of the initial singularity). For example, the plane curve singularity $\{y^2=x^k\}$, $k>2$ give th …

on chern classes and Riemann Roch theorem for torsion-free sheaves on singular (possibly mul...

I'm looking for a definition of Chern class (at least the first one) for a torsion-free sheaf $F$ (not necessarily locally free) on a singular curve (for simplicity can assume all the singularities …

On the normalization and the quotient of the structure sheaves

Let $\nu:\tilde{X}\to X$ be the normalization of a projective variety with non-isolated singularity. The usual object to consider is $\nu_*\mathcal{O}_{\tilde{X}}/\mathcal{O}_X$. For example, one woul …

When does the smoothing of projectivized tangent cone lift to a deformation of a space?

Let $(X,0)\subset(\mathbb{C}^N,0)$ be the (formal) germ of a singular space (isolated singularity). Let $\mathbb{P}T_{(X,0)}\subset\mathbb{P}^{N-1}$ be its projectivized tangent cone (considered as a …

when is a section of vector bundle determined by its zero locus?

Let $V_X$ be a vector bundle of rank $r>1$ on a smooth (connected) projective variety of dimension $r$. Let s be the global holomorphic section, whose zero locus is a zero dimensional subscheme $Z\sub …

Bounds for the milnor number of a hypersurface singularity

Well, for the hypersurface $X_d\subset\Bbb{P}^n$ the "most degenerate" isolated singularity is of the type: $\{x^d_1+\cdots+x^d_n=0\}$. Thus, $\mu_{max}=(d-1)^n$. Is this what was meant?

Higher Euler characteristics (possible generalizations)

Let $X$ be projective and Gorenstein (over $\mathbb{C}$), of dimension $n$, then $\chi(\mathcal{O}_X)=(-1)^n\chi(\omega_X)$. Hence a "generalization": $\chi(\omega^{\otimes k}_X)$. I'd like somethin …

what can be reached by flat degeneration of (globally) complete intersection?

Let $X\subset\mathbb{P}^n$ be a (globally) complete intersection, let $(X_t)_{t\in\mathbb{C}^1}$ be a flat family, with $X_1=X$. Which types of schemes can we get as $X_0$? Or, conversely, which (emb …

Can one obtain surfaces with interesting invariants as resolutions of singular surfaces?

(Perhaps a not very well defined question) Let $(S_t)_t$ be a (flat) family of compact complex surfaces. Assume the generic member is smooth while $S_0$ has isolated singularities. As the simplest c …

infinite dimensional germs of schemes and tangent spaces

(The question of the type "how to define?") Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a local ring over a field $k$ of zero characteristic. Consider the matrices over this ring, $Mat(m,R)$. I think of $Mat(m,R)$ as …

Parameter space for complete intersections and their discriminant
