Description

The Seshadri constant of a polarized variety (X,L) at a point x measures how positive is the polarization L at x. If x is very general, the Seshadri constant does not depend on x, and captures global information on X. Inspired by ideas from the Geometry of Numbers, we introduce in this talk successive Seshadri minima, such that the last one is the Seshadri constant at a point, and the first one is the width of the polarization at the point. Assuming the point is very general, we obtain two results: a) the product of the successive Seshadri minima is proportional to the volume of the polarization; b) if X is toric, the i-th successive Seshadri constant is proportional to the i-th successive minima of a suitable 0-symmetric convex body. Based on joint work with Atsushi Ito.
