On monotonicity of F-blowup sequences

Takehiko Yasuda

Abstract

For each variety in positive characteristic, there is a series of canonically defined blowups, called F-blowups. We are interested in the question of whether the $e+1$-th blowup dominates the $e$-th, locally or globally. It is shown that the answer is affirmative (globally for any $e$) when the given variety is F-pure. As a corollary, we obtain some result on the stability of the sequence of F-blowups. We also give a sufficient condition for local domination.

On monotonicity of F-blowup sequences

Abstract

For each variety in positive characteristic, there is a series of canonically defined blowups, called F-blowups. We are interested in the question of whether the -th blowup dominates the -th, locally or globally. It is shown that the answer is affirmative (globally for any ) when the given variety is F-pure. As a corollary, we obtain some result on the stability of the sequence of F-blowups. We also give a sufficient condition for local domination.

Key Result

Theorem 1.2

Suppose that $X$ is F-pure, that is, the natural morphism $\mathcal{O}_{X} \to (F_{1})_{*} \mathcal{O}_{X}$ locally splits as a morphism of $\mathcal{O}_{X}$-modules. Then the F-blowup sequence of $X$ is monotone.
