Symmetries of Fano varieties

Louis Esser, Lena Ji, Joaquín Moraga

We study Fano varieties endowed with a faithful action of a symmetric group, as well as analogous results for Calabi--Yau varieties, and log terminal singularities. We show the exi…

The fibering genus of Fano hypersurfaces

Nathan Chen, Benjamin Church, Lena Ji +1

Kollár proved that a very general -dimensional complex hypersurface of degree at least is not birational to a fibration in rational curves. This is most…

A threefold violating a local-to-global principle for rationality

Sarah Frei, Lena Ji

In this note we construct an example of a smooth projective threefold that is irrational over but is rational at all places. Our example is a complete intersection of t…

Fano hypersurfaces with no finite order birational automorphisms

Nathan Chen, Lena Ji, David Stapleton

We use the specialization homomorphism for the birational automorphism group to study finite order birational automorphisms. For a family of varieties over a DVR, we prove that a b…

Rationality of real conic bundles with quartic discriminant curve

Lena Ji, Mattie Ji

We study real double covers of branched over a -divisor, which have the structure of a conic bundle threefold with smooth quartic discriminant…

Curve classes on conic bundle threefolds and applications to rationality

Sarah Frei, Lena Ji, Soumya Sankar +2

We undertake a study of conic bundle threefolds over geometrically rational surfaces whose associated discriminant covers are smooth and geo…

The Noether--Lefschetz theorem in arbitrary characteristic

Lena Ji

We show that if is a normal variety of dimension and a very general hypersurface of degree or , then the rest…

Structure of geometrically non-reduced varieties

Lena Ji, Joe Waldron

We prove a structural result for geometrically non-reduced varieties and give applications to Fano varieties. For example, we show that if is the generic fibre of a Mori fibre…

Completely Controlling the Dimensions of Formal Fiber Rings at Prime Ideals of Small Height

Sarah M. Fleming, Lena Ji, S. Loepp +3

Let be a complete equicharacteristic local (Noetherian) UFD of dimension or greater. Assuming that , where is the maximal ideal of , we construct a loca…

Controlling the Dimensions of Formal Fibers of a Unique Factorization Domain at the Height One Prime Ideals

Sarah M. Fleming, Lena Ji, S. Loepp +3

Let T be a complete local (Noetherian) equidimensional ring with maximal ideal m such that the Krull dimension of T is at least two and the depth of T is at least two. Suppose that…
