Higher-order differentials of the period map and higher Kodaira-Spencer classesIn K we introduced two variants of higher-order differentials of the period map and showed how to compute them for a variation of Hodge structure that comes from a deformation of a compact…Yakov Karpishpan·May 12, 1994SaveLearn
Geometric invariant theory and flipsWe study the dependence of geometric invariant theory quotients on the choice of a linearization. We show that, in good cases, two such quotients are related by a flip in the sense of Mori, and…Michael Thaddeus·May 10, 1994SaveLearn
An Algorithmic Proof of Suslin's Stability Theorem over Polynomial RingsLet k be a field. Then Gaussian elimination over k and the Euclidean division algorithm for the univariate polynomial ring k[x] allow us to write any matrix in SLn(k) or SLn(k[x]), $n≥…H. Park, C. Woodburn·May 10, 1994SaveLearn
The blowup formula for Donaldson invariantsIn this paper we present a formula which relates the Donaldson invariants of a 4-manifold X with the Donaldson invariants of its blowup X#-CP(2). This blow-up formula is independent of X and involves…Ronald Fintushel, Ronald Stern·May 9, 1994SaveLearn
