Abstract

This is the continuation of papers by Braun and Floystad, Cook, Braun and Cook. We use Generic Initial Ideal Theory in conjunction with Liaison Theory to further restrict the possible generic initial ideals of hyperplane sections of smooth surfaces not of general type in P4.

Plane Curves with Hyperbolic and C-hyperbolic Complements

The general problem which initiated this work is: What are the quasiprojective varieties which can be uniformized by means of bounded domains in $\cz^n$ ? Such a variety should be, in particular, C--hyperbolic, i.e. it should have a Carathéodory hyperbolic covering. We study here the plane projective curves whose complements are C--hyperbolic. For instance, we show that most of the curves whose duals are nodal or, more generally, immersed curves, belong to this class. We also give explicit examples of irreducible such curves of any even degree d greater or equal 6.

Iitaka-Severi's Conjecture for Complex Threefolds

We prove the following generalization of Severi's Theorem: Let $X$ be a fixed complex variety. Then there exist, up to birational equivalence, only finitely many complex varieties $Y$ of general type of dimension at most three which admit a dominant rational map $f$ from $X$ to Y$.

Erratum to "The Homogeneous Coordinate Ring of a Toric Variety", along with the original paper

This submission consists of two papers: 1) an erratum that corrects an error in the proof of Proposition 4.3 in my paper "The Homogeneous Coordinate Ring of a Toric Variety", and 2) the original (unchanged) version of the paper, published in 1995. The original paper introduced the homogeneous coordinate ring of a toric variety (now called the total coordinate ring or Cox ring) and gave a quotient construction. The paper also studied sheaves on a toric variety, and in Section 4 described its automorphism group. The error in the proof of Proposition 4.3 resulted from the faulty assumption that a certain set of graded endomorphisms forms a ring; rather, it is a monoid under composition. The erratum notes this error and gives a correct proof of the proposition.
