We construct a family of nef divisor classes on every moduli space of stable complexes in the sense of Bridgeland. This divisor class varies naturally with the Bridgeland stability condition. For a generic stability condition on a K3…

We obtain a general concept of triplet of Hilbert spaces with closed (unbounded) embeddings instead of continuous (bounded) ones. The construction starts with a positive selfadjoint operator $H$, that is called the Hamiltonian of the…

We prove that if $\Sigma$ is a closed surface of genus at least 3 and $G$ is a split real semisimple Lie group of rank at least $3$ acting faithfully by isometries on a symmetric space $N$, then there exists a Hitchin representation…

We study minimal harmonic maps $g: {\mathbb{C}} \to SO(3) \backslash SL(3,{\mathbb{R}})$, parameterized by polynomial cubic differentials $P$ in the plane. The asymptotic structure of such a $g$ is determined by a convex polygon $Y(P)$ in…

Let X be a smooth Mori dream space of dimension at least 4. We show that, if X satisfies a suitable GIT condition which we call "small unstable locus", then every smooth ample divisor Y of X is also a Mori dream space. Moreover, the…

We show that the K-moduli spaces of log Fano pairs $(\mathbb{P}^3, cS)$ where $S$ is a quartic surface interpolate between the GIT moduli space of quartic surfaces and the Baily-Borel compactification of moduli of quartic K3 surfaces as $c$…

We show the properness of the moduli stack of stable surfaces over $\mathbb{Z}[1/30]$, assuming the locally-stable reduction conjecture for stable surfaces. This relies on a local Kawamata--Viehweg vanishing theorem for for 3-dimensional…

Let $H_{a,b}^n$ denote the component of the Hilbert scheme whose general point parameterizes an $a$-plane union a $b$-plane meeting transversely in $\mathbf{P}^n$. We describe the effective and nef cones of $H_{a,b}^n$ and determine when…

Let $(S,h)$ be a closed hyperbolic surface and $M$ be a quasi-Fuchsian 3-manifold. We consider incompressible maps from $S$ to $M$ that are critical points of an energy functional $F$ which is homogeneous of degree $1$. These "minimizing"…

We study piecewise-smooth systems with three zones, $\dot{z} = f_i(z)$, $i = 1,2,3,$ whose discontinuity set $\Sigma$ consists either of a pair of parallel lines or a pair of circles tangent to each other internally or externally. Each…

In Part 1 of this paper, we have estimated the Fr\'echet coderivative and the Mordukhovich coderivative of the stationary point set map of a smooth parametric optimization problem with one smooth functional constraint under total…

Harmonic maps that minimise the Dirichlet energy in their homotopy classes are known as lumps. Lump solutions on real projective space are explicitly given by rational maps subject to a certain symmetry requirement. This has consequences…

For a K3 surface S, we study motivic invariants of stable pairs moduli spaces associated to 3-fold thickenings of S. We conjecture suitable deformation and divisibility invariances for the Betti realization. Our conjectures, together with…

Inspired by Schmidt's work on twisted cubics, we study wall crossings in Bridgeland stability, starting with the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^{2m+2}(\mathbb{P}^3)$ parametrizing pairs of skew lines and plane conics union a point. We find…

We give a new proof of the following theorem: moduli spaces of stable complexes on a complex projective K3 surface, with primitive Mukai vector and with respect to a generic Bridgeland stability condition, are hyperk\"{a}hler varieties of…

The primary goal of this paper is to find a homotopy theoretic approximation to moduli spaces of holomorphic maps Riemann surfaces into complex projective space. There is a similar treatment of a partial compactification of these moduli…

We complete Mori's program with symmetric divisors for the moduli space of stable six pointed rational curves. As an application, we give an alternative proof of the complete Mori's program of the moduli space of genus two stable curves,…

By work of Looijenga and others, one has a good understanding of the relationship between GIT and Baily-Borel compactifications for the moduli spaces of degree 2 K3 surfaces, cubic fourfolds, and a few other related examples. The…

We study here some aspects of the topology of the space of smooth, stable, genus 0 curves in a Riemannian manifold $X$, i.e. the Kontsevich stable curves, which are not necessarily holomorphic. We use the Hofer-Wysocki-Zehnder polyfold…

Let $M(n,\xi)$ be the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank $n\geq 3$ and fixed determinant $\xi$ over a smooth projective algebraic curve $X$ over $\mathbb{C}$ of genus $g\geq 4.$ We use the gonality of the curve and $r$-Hecke…
