• Topological properties of algebraic varieties

  This project studies topological properties of algebraic varieties. Topics include: Applications of birational geometry and in particular of the birational classification theory to topological questions; Classification of Kähler manifolds with holomorphic one-forms without zeros; Construction problem for Hodge numbers.

• Orbifold concepts in equivariant singularity theory

  The main objectives of the project are the development of orbifold analogues of classical concepts of singularity theory in the presence of a finite group action on the variety and the investigation of orbifold type invariants.
