In this paper we develop a Morse-like theory in order to decompose birational maps and morphisms of smooth projective varieties defined over a field of characteristic zero into more elementary steps which are locally étale isomorphic to equivariant flips, blow-ups and blow-downs of toric varieties. A crucial role in th…

The fundamental germ is a generalization of π1π_{1}, first defined for laminations which arise through group actions in math.DG/0506270. In this paper, the fundamental germ is extended to any lamination having a dense leaf admitting a smooth structure. In addition, an amplification of the fundamental germ called the mo…

A classical set of birational invariants of a variety are its spaces of pluricanonical forms and some of their canonically defined subspaces. Each of these vector spaces admits a typical metric structure which is also birationally invariant. These vector spaces so metrized will be referred to as the pseudonormed spaces…

Unique birational structure proven on Inoue surfaces.

problem Proving uniqueness of birational structures on Inoue surfaces.
method Generalizing a result by Bruno Klingler, proving uniqueness of structures.
result The natural (Aff2(C),C2)(\operatorname{Aff} _2(\mathbf{C}),\mathbf{C}^2)-structure on an Inoue surface is the unique (Bir(P2),P2(C))(\operatorname{Bir}(\mathbb{P}^2),\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbf{C}))-structure.

A symplectic manifold (M,ω)(M,ω) is called {\em (symplectically) uniruled} if there is a nonzero genus zero GW invariant involving a point constraint. We prove that symplectic uniruledness is invariant under symplectic blow-up and blow-down. This theorem follows from a general Relative/Absolute correspondence for a symple…

We describe a birational map between subvarieties in the character varieties of mutative 3-manifolds. By studying the birational map, one can decide in certain circumstances whether a mutation surface is detected by an ideal point of the character variety.

Building on the work of the fourth author in math.AG/9904074, we prove the weak factorization conjecture for birational maps in characteristic zero: a birational map between complete nonsingular varieties over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic zero is a composite of blowings up and blowings down with sm…

method Analyzing singularities of pedal curves based on dual curve germs and pedal point locations.
result The singularities of pedal curves depend on the singularities of the first hyperbolic Legendrian curvature germ and the pedal point for non-singular dual curve germs. For singular dual curve germs, additional dependence on both Legendrian curvature germs is observed.

We study the classification problem of singularities of function-germs with harmonic leading terms of two variables under the right-equivalence. We observe that the multiple actions of Laplacian appear for the classifications of such class of function-germs.

Germs of Goursat distributions can be classified according to a geometric coding called an RVT code. Jean (1996) and Mormul (2004) have shown that this coding carries precisely the same data as the small growth vector. Montgomery and Zhitomirskii (2010) have shown that such germs correspond to finite jets of Legendrian…

A mapping class group of an oriented manifold is a quotient of its diffeomorphism group by the isotopies. We compute a mapping class group of a hypekahler manifold MM, showing that it is commensurable to an arithmetic subgroup in SO(3, b_2-3). A Teichmuller space of MM is a space of complex structures on MM up to is…

Let MM and NN be Nash manifolds, and ff and gg Nash maps from MM to NN. If MM and NN are compact and if ff and gg are analytically R-L equivalent, then they are Nash R-L equivalent. In the local case, CinftyC^infty R-L equivalence of two Nash map germs implies Nash R-L equivalence. This shows a difference of Nash…

In this paper, two sufficient conditions are provided for given two K-equivalent map-germs to be bi-Lipschitz A-equivalent. These are Lipschitz analogues of the known results on C^r-A-equivalence (0r)(0 \leq r \leq \infty) for given two K-equivalent map-germs. As a corollary of one of our results, a Lipschitz version of …
