For $epsilon$-lc Fano type varieties $X$ of dimension $d$ and a given finite set $Gamma$, we show that there exists a positive integer $m_0$ which only depends on $epsilon,d$ and $Gamma$, such that both $|-mK_X-sum_ilceil mb_irceil B_i|$ and $|-mK_X-sum_ilfloor mb_irfloor B_i|$ define birational maps for any $mge m_0$ provided that $B_i$ are pseudo-effective Weil divisors, $b_iinGamma$, and $-(K_X+sum_ib_iB_i)$ is big. When $Gammasubset[0,1]$ satisfies the DCC but is not finite, we construct an example to show that the effective birationality may fail even if $X$ is fixed, $B_i$ are fixed prime divisors, and $(X,B)$ is $epsilon$-lc for some $epsilon>0$.
Hitchin pairs on Riemann surfaces are generalizations of Higgs bundles, allowing the Higgs field to be twisted by an arbitrary line bundle. We consider this generalization in the context of $G$-Higgs bundles for a real reductive Lie group $G$. We outline the basic theory and review some selected results, including recent results by Nozad and the author arXiv:1602.02712 [math.AG] on Hitchin pairs for the unitary group of indefinite signature $mathrm{U}(p,q)$.
We study various triangulated motivic categories and introduce a vast family of aisles (these are certain classes of objects) in them. These aisles are defined in terms of the corresponding motives (or motivic spectra) of smooth varieties in them; we relate them to the corresponding homotopy t-structures. We describe our aisles in terms of stalks at function fields and prove that they widely generalize the ones corresponding to slice filtrations. Further, the filtrations on the homotopy hearts $Ht_{hom}^{eff}$ of the corresponding effective subcategories that are induced by these aisles can be described in terms of (Nisnevich) sheaf cohomology as well as in terms of the Voevodsky contractions $-_{-1}$. Respectively, we express the condition for an object of $Ht_{hom}^{eff}$ to be weakly birational (i.e., that its $n+1$th contraction is trivial or, equivalently, the Nisnevich cohomology vanishes in degrees $>n$ for some $nge 0$) in terms of these aisles; this statement generalizes well-known results of Kahn and Sujatha. Next, these classes define weight structures $w_{Smooth}^{s}$ (where $s=(s_{j})$ are non-decreasing sequences parameterizing our aisles) that vastly generalize the Chow weight structures $w_{Chow}$ defined earlier. Using general abstract nonsense we also construct the corresponding adjacent $t-$structures $t_{Smooth}^{s}$ and prove that they give the birationality filtrations on $Ht^{eff}_{hom}$. Moreover, some of these weight structures induce weight structures on the corresponding $n-$birational motivic categories (these are the localizations by the levels of the slice filtrations). Our results also yield some new unramified cohomology calculations.
A $mathrm{U}(p,q)$-Higgs bundle on a Riemann surface (twisted by a line bundle) consists of a pair of holomorphic vector bundles, together with a pair of (twisted) maps between them. Their moduli spaces depend on a real parameter $alpha$. In this paper we study wall crossing for the moduli spaces of $alpha$-polystable twisted $mathrm{U}(p,q)$-Higgs bundles. Our main result is that the moduli spaces are birational for a certain range of the parameter and we deduce irreducibility results using known results on Higgs bundles. Quiver bundles and the Hitchin-Kobayashi correspondence play an essential role.
We establish a relative spannedness for log canonical pairs, which is a generalization of the basepoint-freeness for varieties with log-terminal singularities by Andreatta--Wisniewski. Moreover, we establish a generalization for quasi-log canonical pairs.
We present a nearby cycle sheaf construction in the context of symmetric spaces. This construction can be regarded as a replacement for the Grothendieck-Springer resolution in classical Springer theory.
