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 $X$ is a surface, the bound can be improved to $3$, and this value is optimal.
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, and let $S$ be a minimal smooth projective surface of general type over $k$. If the second Chern class satisfies $c_2(S)<0$, then the order of the automorphism group satisfies $|\mathrm{Aut}_k(S)|<2598(K_S^2)^4$, and the order of every abelian subgroup $...
Let $A$ be a complex abelian surface. We prove that $A$ admits a dominant rational map of degree three to $\PP^2$ if and only if it admits a polarization of type $(1,1)$, $(1,2)$, $(1,3)$, or $(1,6)$. Consequently, the degree of irrationality of $A$ is $3$ precisely in these four cases and is $4$ otherwise.
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...
Let $G$ be a finite group acting properly by lattice automorphisms on a complete simplicial fan $\Sigma$. An open question due to Stanley asked whether the (ungraded) representation carried by the cohomology $H^*(X_{\Sigma})$ of the associated toric variety $X_{\Sigma}$ is isomorphic to a permutation representation of...

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group, and let $k$ be an infinite perfect field containing a primitive root of unity of order the exponent of $G$. We prove that the $G$-equivariant version of Gabber's presentation lemma proposed by Bachmann holds over $k$ if and only if $G$ is cyclic of $p$-power order, for some prime $p$.
Let $G$ be a nontrivial, finite abelian group. Then $\nu (G)$ is the smallest integer $\ell$ such that every zero-sum free sequence $T$ over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has the following property: all nonzero elements of $G$ that do not occur as a subsequence sum of $T$ lie in a proper coset of some subgroup of $G$....
