Geometric Invariant Theory and Birational Geometry
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we will survey some recent developments in the last decade or so on variation of Geometric Invariant Theory and its applications to Birational Geometry such as the weighted Weak Factorization Theorems of nonsingular projective varieties and more generally projective varieties with finite quotient singularities. Along the way, we will also mention some progresses on birational geometry of hyperKähler manifolds as well as certain open problems and conjectures.

Moduli Spaces and Invariant Theory
A moduli space is a space that parametrizes geometric objects. For example, elliptic curves are classified by the so-called J-invariant, so the moduli space of elliptic curves is a line (with coordinate J). More generally, there exists a moduli space, calledMg , which parametries all projective algebraic curves of genus g (equivalently, all compact Riemann surfaces of genus g). The Jacobian of ...
متن کاملSecant Varieties and Birational Geometry
We show how to use information about the equations defining secant varieties to smooth projective varieties in order to construct a natural collection of birational transformations. These were first constructed as flips in the case of curves by M. Thaddeus via Geometric Invariant Theory, and the first flip in the sequence was constructed by the author for varieties of arbitrary dimension in an ...
متن کاملBirational Stability of the Cotangent Bundle
We introduce a birational invariant κ++(X |∆) ≥ κ(X |∆) for orbifold pairs (X |∆) by considering the ∆-saturated Kodaira dimensions of rank-one coherent subsheaves of Ω X . The difference between these two invariants measures the birational unstability of Ω(X |∆). Assuming conjectures of the LMMP, we obtain a simple geometric description of the invariant κ++(X |∆), as the Kodaira dimension of t...

متن کاملAn Ultradiscrete Qrt Mapping from Tropical Elliptic Curves
Recently the area of tropical geometry has introduced the concept of the tropical elliptic group law associated with a tropical elliptic curve. This gives rise to a notion of the tropical QRT mapping. We compute the explicit tropically birational expressions that define the tropical QRTmapping for some arbitrary set of parameters. We consider this a new integrable ultradiscrete system. This als...
