A Fiber Dimension Theorem for Essential and Canonical Dimension
نویسنده
چکیده
The well-known fiber dimension theorem in algebraic geometry says that for every morphism f : X → Y of integral schemes of finite type, the dimension of every fiber of f is at least dimX−dimY . This has recently been generalized by P. Brosnan, Z. Reichstein and A. Vistoli to certain morphisms of algebraic stacks f : X → Y , where the usual dimension is replaced by essential dimension. We will prove a general version for morphisms of categories fibered in groupoids. Moreover we will prove a variant of this theorem, where essential dimension and canonical dimension are linked. These results let us relate essential dimension to canonical dimension of algebraic groups. In particular, using the recent computation of the essential dimension of algebraic tori by M. MacDonald, A. Meyer, Z. Reichstein and the author, we establish a lower bound on the canonical dimension of algebraic tori.

Deligne Pairings and the Knudsen-mumford Expansion
Let X → B be a proper flat morphism between smooth quasiprojective varieties of relative dimension n, and L → X a line bundle which is ample on the fibers. We establish formulas for the first two terms in the Knudsen-Mumford expansion for det(π∗L ) in terms of Deligne pairings of L and the relative canonical bundle K. This generalizes the theorem of Deligne [1], which holds for families of rela...

متن کاملModel Based Method for Determining the Minimum Embedding Dimension from Solar Activity Chaotic Time Series
Predicting future behavior of chaotic time series system is a challenging area in the literature of nonlinear systems. The prediction's accuracy of chaotic time series is extremely dependent on the model and the learning algorithm. On the other hand the cyclic solar activity as one of the natural chaotic systems has significant effects on earth, climate, satellites and space missions. Several m...
متن کاملEssential Dimension and Canonical Dimension of Gerbes Banded by Groups of Multiplicative Type
We prove the formula ed(X ) = cdim(X ) + ed(A) for any gerbe X banded by an algebraic group A which is the kernel of a homomorphism of algebraic tori Q → S with Q invertible and S split. This result is applied to prove new results on the essential dimension of algebraic groups.
