Title

Algebraic bounds on analytic multiplier ideals

Abstract

A classical theorem of Kodaira states that ample line bundles are characterized by the positivity of their curvature form. More generally, one expects that the geometric “positivity” of a line bundle L can be detected on the metrics carried by L. The key tool relating these two concepts is the multiplier ideal. I will introduce multiplier ideals and explain how to obtain bounds on the behavior of analytic multiplier ideals using algebraic constructions.
