Configuration of lines in del Pezzo surfaces with Gosset Polytopes

Abstract

In this article, we study the divisor classes of del Pezzo surfaces, which are written as the sum of distinct lines with fixed intersection according to the inscribed simplexes and crosspolytopes in Gosset polytopes. We introduce the k-Steiner system and cornered simplexes, and characterize the configurations of inscribed m(<4)-simplexes with them. Higher dimensional inscribed m(3<m)-simplexes exist in 4_{21} in the Picard group of del Pezzo surface S_{8} of degree 1.The configurations of 4- and 7-simplexes are related to rulings in S_{8}. And the configurations of 5- and 6-simplexes correspond the skew 3-lines and skew 7-lines in S_{8}. In particular, the seven lines in a 6-simplex produce a Fano plane. We also study the inscribed crosspolytopes and hypercubes in the Gosset polytopes.

G3-Criteria and Applications

The G3-property of a subvariety was introduced by Hironaka-Matsumura, and plays an important role for deducing connectedness and extension results. Unfortunately, it's a rather elusive notion, which is not always easy to establish. Most of the existing work is concentrated on subvarieties of homogeneous varieties. The first goal of this article is to show that mobility assumptions on the subvariety, considered in works of Badescu, Chow, Debarre, Voisin, yield a certain partial positivity property, slightly stronger than G3, previously introduced by the author. Second, we apply the result to prove that, in numerous situations, the splitting of the normal bundle of a smooth two-codimensional subvariety implies that it is a complete intersection.

Nodal degeneration of chiral algebras I: Global structure and gluing formula

We define a natural extension of a universal factorization algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to families of stable punctured curves, by integrating over all semistable modifications. We prove that the resulting sheaf of factorization homology satisfies a natural gluing formula, by tensoring over a certain derived associative algebra $\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}^0$, generalizing the Verlinde formula for gluing of conformal blocks.
