Smooth blow up structures on projective bundles

Assuming Hartshorne's conjecture on complete intersections, we classify projective bundles over projective spaces which has a smooth blow up structure over another projective space. Under some assumptions, we also classify projective bundles over projective spaces which has a smooth blow up structure over some arbitrary smooth projective variety, not necessarily a projective space. We verify which of the globally generated vector bundles over projective space of first Chern class at most five has the property that their projectivisation has a smooth blow up structure, with no additional assumption. In the way, we get some new examples of varieties with both projective bundle and smooth blow up structures.

Extremal Contraction of Projective Bundles

In this article, we explore the extremal contractions of several projective bundles over smooth Fano varieties of Picard rank $1$. We provide a whole class of examples of projective bundles with smooth blow-up structures, derived from the notion of drums which was introduced by Occhetta-Romano-Conde-Wiśniewski to study interaction with $\mathbb{C}^*$-actions and birational geometry. By manipulating projective bundles, we give a simple geometric construction of the rooftop flip, which was introduced recently by Barban-Franceschini. Additionally, we obtain analogues of some recent results of Vats in higher dimensions. The list of projective bundles we consider includes all globally generated bundles over projective space with first Chern class $2$. For each of them, we compute the nef and pseudoeffective cones.

Isomorphism of Multiprojective Bundles and Projective Towers

We study when two projective bundles over two arbitrary smooth projective varieties of different dimensions can be isomorphic. We show that two multi-projective bundles (fibre product of projective bundles) over different projective spaces cannot be isomorphic, except in the trivial case. We also give necessary and sufficient conditions for the top varieties of two height 3 towers of projective bundles being isomorphic, under certain assumptions.

A Combinatorial Proof of a generalization of a Theorem of Frobenius

In this article, we shall generalize a theorem due to Frobenius in group theory, which asserts that if $p$ is a prime and $p^{r}$ divides the order of a finite group, then the number of subgroups of order $p^{r}$ is $\equiv$ 1(mod $p$). Interestingly, our proof is purely combinatorial and does not use much group theory.

Average order in wreath products

We obtain an exact formula for the average order of elements of a wreath product of two finite groups. Then focussing our attention on $p$-groups for primes $p$, we give an estimate for the average order of a wreath product $A\wr B$ in terms of maximum order of elements of $A$ and average order of $B$ and an exact formula for the distribution of orders of elements of $A\wr B.$ Finally, we show how wreath products can be used to find several rational numbers which are limits of average orders of a sequence of $p$-groups with cardinalities going to infinity.

The Weingarten map and curvatures of SL(n, R)

In this article, we shall derive by elementary calculations the Gauss map, spherical image, Weingarten map and the curvatures at identity of the special linear group, that is, the matrices of determinant 1. We could not find any reference where this simple, nice computation has been explicitly put down.
