The Gieseker-Uhlenbeck morphism maps the Gieseker moduli space of stable rank-2 sheaves on a smooth projective surface to the Uhlenbeck compactification, and is a generalization of the Hilbert-Chow morphism for Hilbert schemes of points. When the surface is the complex projective plane, we determine all the 1-point genus-0 Gromov-Witten invariants extremal with respect to the Gieseker-Uhlenbeck...

We consider a possibility of the existence of intersection homology morphism, which would be associated to a map of analytic varieties. We assume that the map is an inclusion of codimension one. Then the existence of a morphism follows from Saito’s decomposition theorem. For varieties with conical singularities we show, that the existence of intersection homology morphism is exactly equivalent ...

Directed containers make explicit the additional structure of those containers whose set functor interpretation carries a comonad structure. The data and laws of a directed container resemble those of a monoid, while the data and laws of a directed container morphism those of a monoid morphism in the reverse direction. With some reorganization, a directed container is the same as a small catego...

It is proved that in any pointed category with pullbacks, coequalizers and regular epi-mono factorizations, the class of regular epimorphisms is stable under pullback along the so-called balanced effective descent morphisms. Here “balanced” can be omitted if the category is additive. A balanced effective descent morphism is defined as an effective descent morphism p : E → B such that any subobj...

when 0 < k ≤ p. We will say that a smooth projective variety X has Bott vanishing if for every ample line bundle L, i > 0 and j H(X,ΩjX ⊗ L) = 0 The purpose of this paper is to show that Bott vanishing is a simple consequence of a very specific condition on the Frobenius morphism in prime characteristic p. Recall that the absolute Frobenius morphism F : X → X on X, where X is a variety over Z/p...

A toroidalization of a dominant morphism $varphi: Xto Y$ of algebraic varieties over a field of characteristic zero is a toroidal lifting of $varphi$ obtained by performing sequences of blow ups of nonsingular subvarieties above $X$ and $Y$. We give a proof of toroidalization of locally toroidal morphisms of 3-folds.

In this article, we have shown, for the add-point monad T, thepartial morphism category Set*is isomorphic to the Kleisli category SetT. Alsowe have proved that the category, SetT, of T-algebras is isomorphic to thecategory Set of pointed sets. Finally we have established commutative squaresinvolving these categories.

Sheaves are objects of a local nature: a global section is determined by how it looks locally. Hence, a sheaf cannot describe mathematical structures which contain global or nonlocal geometric information. To fill this gap, we introduce the theory of “gleaves”, which are presheaves equipped with an additional “gluing operation” of compatible pairs of local sections. This generalizes the conditi...
