Let $U$ be a unipotent group which is graded in the sense that it has an extension $H$ by the multiplicative group of the complex numbers such that all the weights of the adjoint action on the Lie algebra of $U$ are strictly positive. We study embeddings of $H$ in a general linear group $G$ which possess Grosshans-like properties. More precisely, suppose $H$ acts on a projective variety $X$ and its action extends to an action of $G$ which is linear with respect to an ample line bundle on $X$. Then, provided that we are willing to twist the linearization of the action of $H$ by a suitable (rational) character of $H$, we find that the $H$-invariants form a finitely generated algebra and hence define a projective variety $X/\!/H$; moreover, the natural morphism from the semistable locus in $X$ to $X/\!/H$ is surjective, and semistable points in $X$ are identified in $X/\!/H$ if and only if the closures of their $H$-orbits meet in the semistable locus. A similar result applies when we replace $X$ by its product with the projective line; this gives us a projective completion of a geometric quotient of a $U$-invariant open subset of $X$ by the action of the unipotent group $U$.

In this paper, we extend the notion of Shintani descent to general (possibly disconnected) algebraic groups defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. For this, it is essential to treat all the pure inner $\mathbb{F}_{q}$-rational forms of the algebraic group at the same time. We prove that the notion of almost characters (introduced by Shoji using Shintani descent) is well defined for any neutrally unipotent algebraic group, i.e. an algebraic group whose neutral connected component is a unipotent group. We also prove that these almost characters coincide with the ‘trace of Frobenius’ functions associated with Frobenius-stable character sheaves on neutrally unipotent groups. In the course of the proof, we also prove that the modular categories that arise from Boyarchenko and Drinfeld’s theory of character sheaves on neutrally unipotent groups are in fact positive integral, confirming a conjecture due to Drinfeld.

Let X be a smooth projective variety of dimension n over the field of complex numbers. We denote by Kx the canonical bundle of X. By Mori's theory, if Kx is not numerically effective (i.e. if there exists a curve on X which has negative intersection number with Kx), then there exists an extremal ray ℝ+[C] on X and an elementary contraction fR: X → Y associated with ℝ+[C].fR is called a small contraction if it is bi-rational and an isomorphism in co-dimension one.

Abstract Let R be a complete discrete valuation ring of equi-characteristic zero with fraction field K. Let X be a connected smooth projective variety of dimension d over K, and let L be an ample line bundle over X. We assume that there exist a regular strictly semistable model ${\mathscr {X}}$ of X over R and a relatively ample line bundle ${\mathscr {L}}$ over ${\mathscr {X}}$ with $\left .{{\mathscr {L}}}\right \vert_{{X}} \cong L$. Let $S({\mathscr {X}})$ be the skeleton associated to ${\mathscr {X}}$ in the Berkovich analytification Xan of X. In this article, we study when $S({\mathscr {X}})$ is faithfully tropicalized into tropical projective space by the adjoint linear system |L⊗m ⊗ ωX|. Roughly speaking, our results show that if m is an integer such that the adjoint bundle is basepoint free, then the adjoint linear system admits a faithful tropicalization of $S({\mathscr {X}})$.

We show that a$\mathbb{P}$-object and simple configurations of$\mathbb{P}$-objects have a formal derived endomorphism algebra. Hence the triangulated category (classically) generated by such objects is independent of the ambient triangulated category. We also observe that the category generated by the structure sheaf of a smooth projective variety over the complex numbers only depends on its graded cohomology algebra.

The present note is intended to be a supplement to [9], in which the following is proven: Let V be a smooth projective variety over the field of complex numbers C, T a smooth quasi-projective variety, Z a cycle in T × V of codimension p. If Z(t) is l-cube equivalent to zero for general t e T, then, setting r = dim V − p,vanishes for l′ < l, where {tZ} is the correspondence defined by Z.

AbstractLet ϵ be an ample vector bundle of rank r ≥ 2 on a smooth complex projective variety X of dimension n such that there exists a global section of ϵ whose zero locus Z is a smooth subvariety of dimension n-r ≥ 2 of X. Let H be an ample line bundle on X such that the restriction HZ of H to Z is very ample. Triplets (X, ϵ, H) with g(Z, HZ) = 3 are classified, where g(Z, HZ) is the sectional genus of (Z, HZ).

Let [Formula: see text] be a projective variety of dimension [Formula: see text] over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. We prove a Fujiki–Lieberman type theorem on the structure of the automorphism group of [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] be a group of zero entropy automorphisms of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] the set of elements in [Formula: see text] which are isotopic to the identity. We show that after replacing [Formula: see text] by a suitable finite-index subgroup, [Formula: see text] is a unipotent group of the derived length at most [Formula: see text]. This result was first proved by Dinh et al. for compact Kähler manifolds.

Denote by Fα,β the multiplicative group generated by the two matrices where α and β are complex numbers. Sanov (3) proved that F α,β is free, and Brenner (1) showed that F m,m is free if m ⩾ 2.

We study meromorphic actions of unipotent complex Lie groups on compact K\"ahler manifolds using moment map techniques. We introduce natural stability conditions and show that sets of semistable points are Zariski-open and admit geometric quotients that carry compactifiable K\"ahler structures obtained by symplectic reduction. The relation of our complex-analytic theory to the work of Doran--Kirwan regarding the Geometric Invariant Theory of unipotent group actions on projective varieties is discussed in detail.
