Let Γ2 ⊆ Γ1 be finitely generated subgroups of GLn0 (Z[1/q0]). For i = 1 or 2, let Gi be the Zariski-closure of Γi in (GLn0 )Q, Gi be the Zariski-connected component of Gi, and let Gi be the closure of Γi in ∏ p-q0 GLn0 (Zp). In this article we prove that, if G1 is the smallest closed normal subgroup of G1 which contains G2 and Γ2 y G2 has spectral gap, then Γ1 y G1 has spectral gap.

We present a method of Zariski-van Kampen type for the calculation of the transcendental lattice of a complex projective surface. As an application, we calculate the transcendental lattices of complex singular K3 surfaces associated with an arithmetic Zariski pair of maximizing sextics of type A10 + A9 that are defined over Q( √ 5) and are conjugate to each other by the action of Gal(Q( √

Let $f \colon X \to X$ be a surjective endomorphism of normal projective surface. When $\operatorname{deg} f \geq 2$, applying an (iteration of) $f$-equivariant minimal model program (EMMP), we determine the geometric structure $X$. Using this, extend second author's result to singular surfaces extent that either $X$ has $f$-invariant non-constant rational function, or $f$ infinitely many Zaris...

We prove that any nef $b$ -divisor class on a projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero is decreasing limit Cartier classes. Building this technical result, we construct intersection theory -divisors, and several variants the Hodge index theorem inspired by work Dinh Sibony. show big basepoint-free curve power -divisor, relate statement to Zariski deco...

Let L be a complete lattice. We introduce and characterize the prime L-submodules of a unitary module over a commutative ring with identity. Finally, we investigate the Zariski topology on the prime L-Spectrum of a unitary module, consisting of the collection of all prime L-submodules, and prove that for L-top modules the Zariski topology on L-Spec(M) exists. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

This paper dualizes the setting of affine spaces as originally introduced by Diers for application to algebraic geometry and expanded upon by various authors, to show that the fundamental groups of pointed topological spaces appear as the structures of dually affine spaces. The dual of the Zariski closure operator is introduced, and the 1-sphere and its copowers together with their fundamental ...

We continue to study Zariski pairs in sextics. In this paper, we study Zariski pairs of sextics which are not irreducible. The idea of the construction of Zariski partner sextic for reducible cases is quit different from the irreducible case. It is crucial to take the geometry of the components and their mutual intersection data into account. When there is a line component, flex geometry (i.e.,...
