Geometry of Multigraded Rings and Embeddings Into Toric Varieties
GEOMETRY OF MULTIGRADED RINGS AND EMBEDDINGS INTO TORIC VARIETIES ALEX KÜRONYA AND STEFANO URBINATI Dedicated to Bill Fulton on the occasion of his 80th birthday. ABSTRACT. We use homogeneous spectra of multigraded rings to construct toric embeddings of a large family of projective varieties which preserve some of the birational geometry of the underlying variety, generalizing the well-known construction associated to Mori Dream Spaces.

This we plan to achieve by pursuing two interconnected trains of thought: on one hand we study geometric spaces that arise from multigraded rings, and on the other hand we analyze the relationship between local Cox rings and embeddings of projective varieties into toric ones. The latter contributes to our understanding of birational maps between varieties along the lines of [HK, KKL, LV]. It has been known for a long time how to build a projective variety or scheme starting from a ring graded by the natural numbers. This construction gave rise to the very satisfactory theory 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary: 14C20. Secondary: 14E25, 14M25, 14E30. -
The Jouanolou-Thomason Homotopy Lemma
The Jouanolou-Thomason homotopy lemma Aravind Asok February 9, 2009 1 Introduction The goal of this note is to prove what is now known as the Jouanolou-Thomason homotopy lemma or simply \Jouanolou's trick." Our main reason for discussing this here is that i) most statements (that I have seen) assume unncessary quasi-projectivity hypotheses, and ii) most applications of the result that I know (e.g., in homotopy K-theory) appeal to the result as merely a \black box," while the proof indicates that the construction is quite geometric and relatively explicit. For simplicity, throughout the word scheme means separated Noetherian scheme. Theorem 1.1 (Jouanolou-Thomason homotopy lemma). Given a smooth scheme X over a regular Noetherian base ring k, there exists a pair (X;~ π), where X~ is an affine scheme, smooth over k, and π : X~ ! X is a Zariski locally trivial smooth morphism with fibers isomorphic to affine spaces. 1 Remark 1.2. In terms of an A -homotopy category of smooth schemes over k (e.g., H(k) or H´et(k); see [MV99, x3]), the map π is an A1-weak equivalence (use [MV99, x3 Example 2.4]. Thus, up to A1-weak equivalence, any smooth k-scheme is an affine scheme smooth over k. 2 An explicit algebraic form Let An denote affine space over Spec Z. Let An n 0 denote the scheme quasi-affine and smooth over 2m Spec Z obtained by removing the fiber over 0. Let Q2m−1 denote the closed subscheme of A (with coordinates x1; : : : ; x2m) defined by the equation X xixm+i = 1: i Consider the following simple situation. -

The interest of projective geometry arises in several visual comput- ing domains, in particular computer vision modelling and computer graphics. It provides a mathematical formalism to describe the geometry of cameras and the associated transformations, hence enabling the design of computational ap- proaches that manipulates 2D projections of 3D objects. In that respect, a fundamental aspect is the fact that objects at infinity can be represented and manipulated with projective geometry and this in contrast to the Euclidean geometry. This allows perspective deformations to be represented as projective transformations. Figure 1.1: Example of perspective deformation or 2D projective transforma- tion. Another argument is that Euclidean geometry is sometimes difficult to use in algorithms, with particular cases arising from non-generic situations (e.g. -

ON ULRICH BUNDLES ON PROJECTIVE BUNDLES ANDREAS HOCHENEGGER Abstract. In this article, the existence of Ulrich bundles on projective bundles P(E) → X is discussed. In the case, that the base variety X is a curve or surface, a close relationship between Ulrich bundles on X and those on P(E) is established for specific polarisations. This yields the existence of Ulrich bundles on a wide range of projective bundles over curves and some surfaces. 1. Introduction Given a smooth projective variety X, polarised by a very ample divisor A, let i: X ֒→ PN be the associated closed embedding. A locally free sheaf F on X is called Ulrich bundle (with respect to A) if and only if it satisfies one of the following conditions: • There is a linear resolution of F: ⊕bc ⊕bc−1 ⊕b0 0 → OPN (−c) → OPN (−c + 1) →···→OPN → i∗F → 0, where c is the codimension of X in PN . • The cohomology H•(X, F(−pA)) vanishes for 1 ≤ p ≤ dim(X). • For any finite linear projection π : X → Pdim(X), the locally free sheaf π∗F splits into a direct sum of OPdim(X) . Actually, by [18], these three conditions are equivalent. One guiding question about Ulrich bundles is whether a given variety admits an Ulrich bundle of low rank. The existence of such a locally free sheaf has surprisingly strong implications about the geometry of the variety, see the excellent surveys [6, 14]. Given a projective bundle π : P(E) → X, this article deals with the ques- tion, what is the relation between Ulrich bundles on the base X and those on P(E)? Note that answers to such a question depend much on the choice arXiv:2006.16553v3 [math.AG] 15 Aug 2021 of a very ample divisor. -

These new designs all have in common an equivariant conformal geometry featuring, as the most basic ingredient, the spacetime geometry.

MAPPING STACKS AND CATEGORICAL NOTIONS OF PROPERNESS DANIEL HALPERN-LEISTNER AND ANATOLY PREYGEL Abstract. One fundamental consequence of a scheme being proper is that there is an algebraic space classifying maps from it to any other finite type scheme, and this result has been extended to proper stacks. We observe, however, that it also holds for many examples where the source is a geometric stack, such as a global quotient. In our investigation, we are lead naturally to certain properties of the derived category of a stack which guarantee that the mapping stack from it to any geometric finite type stack is algebraic. We develop methods for establishing these properties in a large class of examples. Along the way, we introduce a notion of projective morphism of algebraic stacks, and prove strong h-descent results which hold in the setting of derived algebraic geometry but not in classical algebraic geometry.

The Riemann-Roch Theorem
The Riemann-Roch Theorem by Carmen Anthony Bruni A project presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the project requirement for the degree of Master of Mathematics in Pure Mathematics Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2010 c Carmen Anthony Bruni 2010 Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this project. This is a true copy of the project, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my project may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract In this paper, I present varied topics in algebraic geometry with a motivation towards the Riemann-Roch theorem. I start by introducing basic notions in algebraic geometry. Then I proceed to the topic of divisors, specifically Weil divisors, Cartier divisors and examples of both. Linear systems which are also associated with divisors are introduced in the next chapter. These systems are the primary motivation for the Riemann-Roch theorem. Next, I introduce sheaves, a mathematical object that encompasses a lot of the useful features of the ring of regular functions and generalizes it. Cohomology plays a crucial role in the final steps before the Riemann-Roch theorem which encompasses all the previously developed tools. I then finish by describing some of the applications of the Riemann-Roch theorem to other problems in algebraic geometry. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank all the people who made this project possible. I would like to thank Professor David McKinnon for his support and help to make this project a reality. I would also like to thank all my friends who offered a hand with the creation of this project. -
8. Grassmannians
66 Andreas Gathmann 8. Grassmannians After having introduced (projective) varieties — the main objects of study in algebraic geometry — let us now take a break in our discussion of the general theory to construct an interesting and useful class of examples of projective varieties. The idea behind this construction is simple: since the definition of projective spaces as the sets of 1-dimensional linear subspaces of Kn turned out to be a very useful concept, let us now generalize this and consider instead the sets of k-dimensional linear subspaces of Kn for an arbitrary k = 0;:::;n. Definition 8.1 (Grassmannians). Let n 2 N>0, and let k 2 N with 0 ≤ k ≤ n. We denote by G(k;n) the set of all k-dimensional linear subspaces of Kn. It is called the Grassmannian of k-planes in Kn. Remark 8.2. By Example 6.12 (b) and Exercise 6.32 (a), the correspondence of Remark 6.17 shows that k-dimensional linear subspaces of Kn are in natural one-to-one correspondence with (k − 1)- n− dimensional linear subspaces of P 1. We can therefore consider G(k;n) alternatively as the set of such projective linear subspaces. As the dimensions k and n are reduced by 1 in this way, our Grassmannian G(k;n) of Definition 8.1 is sometimes written in the literature as G(k − 1;n − 1) instead. Of course, as in the case of projective spaces our goal must again be to make the Grassmannian G(k;n) into a variety — in fact, we will see that it is even a projective variety in a natural way. -

We consider the following properties of sets in n-dimensional real projective space Pn(n > 1 ): a set is semiconvex, if any two points of the set can be joined by a (line)segment which is contained in the set; a set is convex (STEINITZ [1]), if it is semiconvex and does not meet a certain P n-l. The main object of this note is to characterize the convexity of a set by the following interior and simple property: a set is convex if and only if it is semiconvex and does not contain a whole (projective) line; in other words: a subset of Pn is convex if and only if any two points of the set can be joined uniquely by a segment contained in the set. In many cases we can prove more; see e.g.
