KKP conjecture for minimal adjoint orbits
We prove that LG models for minimal semisimple adjoint orbits satisfy the
Katzarkov--Kontsevich--Pantev conjecture about new Hodge theoretical
invariants.Comment: 22 page
Examples of differential geometric behaviour of projective varieties in positive characteristic
Here we study three examples of differential geometric behaviour of projective varieties in positive characteristic: (1) the classification of smooth surfaces in P2n+1 whose m-th osculating spaces have everywhere dimension 2m (1 ≤ m ≤ n);
(2) hypersurfaces with Hessian rank 0; (3) singular hypersurfaces in weighted projective
spaces whose tangent sheaf is locally free and a subbundle of the restricted tangent
bundle
Curve classes on irreducible holomorphic symplectic varieties
We prove that the integral Hodge conjecture holds for 1-cycles on irreducible
holomorphic symplectic varieties of K3 type and of Generalized Kummer type. As
an application, we give a new proof of the integral Hodge conjecture for cubic
fourfolds.Comment: 15 page
Four lectures on secant varieties
This paper is based on the first author's lectures at the 2012 University of
Regina Workshop "Connections Between Algebra and Geometry". Its aim is to
provide an introduction to the theory of higher secant varieties and their
applications. Several references and solved exercises are also included.Comment: Lectures notes to appear in PROMS (Springer Proceedings in

The Degree and regularity of vanishing ideals of algebraic toric sets over finite fields
Let X* be a subset of an affine space A^s, over a finite field K, which is
parameterized by the edges of a clutter. Let X and Y be the images of X* under
the maps x --> [x] and x --> [(x,1)] respectively, where [x] and [(x,1)] are
points in the projective spaces P^{s-1} and P^s respectively. For certain
clutters and for connected graphs, we were able to relate the algebraic
invariants and properties of the vanishing ideals I(X) and I(Y). In a number of
interesting cases, we compute its degree and regularity. For Hamiltonian
bipartite graphs, we show the Eisenbud-Goto regularity conjecture. We give
optimal bounds for the regularity when the graph is bipartite. It is shown that
X* is an affine torus if and only if I(Y) is a complete intersection. We
present some applications to coding theory and show some bounds for the minimum
distance of parameterized linear codes for connected bipartite graphs
