Abstract

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety, $f:X\to X$ an int-amplified endomorphism, and $L$ any ample line bundle on $X$. We prove that, in every codimension, the total degree of prime cycles that become totally invariant under an iterate of $f$ satisfies an explicit Hilbert-function bound on their total $L$-degree. In particular, when $X=\mathbf{P}^n$, the number of totally invariant prime $(n-r)$-cycle is bounded by $\binom{n+1}{r}$, and this bound is optimal.

Cyclic covers via mixed Hodge modules

Suppose we are given an arbitrary line bundle $\mathcal{L}$ on a complex algebraic variety $X$, not necessarily smooth. For a positive integer $N$, suppose there exists a global section $s \in \Gamma(X, \mathcal{L}^{N})$ that defines an effective Cartier divisor $D$. If we denote $\pi: Y \rightarrow X$ to be the $N$-fo...

Divisors in projective bundles over the projective line whose complement is affine space

Given a smooth projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$ and a closed subscheme $Z \subseteq X$, it is in general a difficult problem to determine whether $X \setminus Z$ is isomorphic to $\mathbf A^n$. In the case where $X$ is a projective bundle over $\mathbf P^1$ and the restriction of every irreducible component of $...

Bound of automorphisms of fibred surfaces in positive characteristic

Let $f \colon S \rightarrow B$ be a fibred surface over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p \geq 5$, where $S$ is a minimal smooth projective surface of general type and $B$ is a smooth projective curve of genus $b\geq 2$. We prove that the group of fibration-preserving automorphisms of $f$ has order...

A remark on polycyclic groups of birational automorphisms

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety of dimension $d$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of zero characteristic. Suppose that $G$ is a virtually polycyclic subgroup in the group $\mathrm{Bir}(X)$ of birational automorphisms of $X$. We show that the virtual derived length of $G$ does not exceed $2d+1$. Moreover, if $X$ i...

Arithmetic purity of strong approximation for toric varieties with constant global sections

Let $X$ be a smooth toric variety over a number field $k$ such that the global sections of $X$ are constant. We show that $U(k)$ is dense in $U(\mathbf A_k)^{\text{Br}_1 (U)}$ for any open subset $U$ of $X$ such that the codimension of $X\setminus U$ in $X$ is at least 2.

Singularities of totally invariant hypersurfaces of endomorphisms

Let $f\colon X\to X$ be a polarised endomorphism of a complex projective manifold, and let $D\subset X$ be a reduced totally invariant hypersurface. We prove that every irreducible component of the singular locus of $D$ has codimension one in $D$. In particular, if $D$ is normal, then it is smooth. As an application we...
