On the singular scheme of codimension one holomorphic foliations in P^3

Abstract

In this work, we begin by showing that a holomorphic foliation with singularities is reduced if and only if its normal sheaf is torsion free. In addition, when the codimension of the singular locus is at least two, it is shown that being reduced is equivalent to the reflexivity of the tangent sheaf. Our main results state on one hand, that the tangent sheaf of a codimension one foliation in P^3 is locally free if and only the singular scheme is a curve, and that it splits if and only if that curve is arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay. On the other hand, we discuss when a split foliation in P^3 is determined by its singular scheme.

The Brauer-Manin obstruction for stacky curves

We show that the Brauer-Manin obstruction is the only obstruction to strong approximation for all stacky curves over global fields with finite abelian fundamental groups. This includes all stacky curves of genus $g = \frac{1}{2}$, thus explaining a recent counterexample to the Hasse principle of Bhargava-Poonen. We will furthermore show that the elementary obstruction is the only obstruction to the integral Hasse principle for smooth proper integral models of stacky curves of genus $g < 1$. We then compute the Brauer-Manin obstruction for smooth proper integral models of stacky curves of genus $\frac{1}{2}$.

Tropicalization of super Gromov-Witten invariants

We show that genus-0, $n$ Neveu-Schwarz marked, super Gromov-Witten invariants of a convex, toric variety $X$ can be defined and computed using tropical geometry. When $X$ is a point, the tropical, super Gromov-Witten invariants of $X$ are descendant invariants on the moduli space of tropical curves. When $X$ is a general convex, toric variety, we define a procedure that computes the tropical, inverse Euler class of the SUSY normal bundle $\overline{N}_{n, β} \rightarrow \overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}(X, β)$, under the assumption that $\overline{N}_{n, β}$ is in some sense locally tropicalizable. We define the tropical, genus-0, $n$ Neveu-Schwarz marked, super Gromov-Witten invariants of $X$, and show that the definition recovers the tropical, super Gromov-Witten invariants of a point. We compute a tropical, super Gromov-Witten invariant of $\mathbb{P}^1$.

Optimal bounds for local volumes of threefold singularities

We establish an optimal upper bound for local volumes of Gorenstein canonical non-hypersurface threefold singularities. Specifically, we show that a klt threefold singularity with local volume at least $9$ is either a hypersurface singularity or a quotient singularity. As applications, we obtain new restrictions on the singularities of members in K-moduli spaces of Fano threefolds, and we establish a sharp inequality between local volumes and minimal log discrepancies for threefold singularities.
