In this paper, we discuss the problem of whether the difference $[X]-[Y]$ of the classes of a Fourier--Mukai pair $(X, Y)$ of smooth projective varieties in the Grothendieck ring of varieties is annihilated by some power of the class…
Let $G$ be a finite group, $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety with a faithful $G$-action, and $Y$ be a resolution of singularities of $X/G$. Larsen and Lunts asked whether $[X/G]-[Y]$ is divisible by $[\mathbb{A}^1]$ in the…
We determine the cone of nef divisors on the Voronoi compactification A_g^* of the moduli space A_g of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension g for genus g=2,3. As a corollary we obtain that the spaces A_g^*(n) with level-n…
We show that any abelian variety that is not affine has a nontrivial strongly abelian subvariety. In later papers in this sequence we apply this result to the study of minimal abelian varieties.
The strata of the moduli spaces of Abelian differentials are non-homogenous spaces carrying natural bi-algebraic structures. Partly inspired by the case of homogenous spaces carrying bi-algebraic structures (such as torii, Abelian varieties…
In this paper we consider ideal sheaves associated to the singular loci of a divisor in a linear system $|L|$ of an ample line bundle on a complex abelian variety. We prove an effective result on their (continuous) global generation, after…
We construct an invariant of t-structures on the derived category of a Noetherian ring. This invariant is complete when restricting to the category of quasi-coherent complexes, and also gives a classification of nullity classes with the…
We show for an affine variety $X$, the derived category of quasi-coherent $D$-modules is equivalent to the category of DG modules over an explicit DG algebra, whose zeroth cohomology is the ring of Grothendieck differential operators…
In this paper, we will study modular Abelian varieties with odd congruence numbers by examining the cuspidal subgroup of $J_0(N)$. We will show that the conductor of such Abelian varieties must be of a special type. For example, if $N$ is…
In this paper we show that semistable vector bundles on a Castelnuovo curve of genus g >= 2 have theta divisors. As a corollary, we deduce that semistable vector bundles on a smooth, general curve of genus g >= 2 which extend to semistable…
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a small category, motivated by the definition of bisheaves of abelian groups of MacPherson and Patel (see the Definition 5.1 of the paper: R. MacPherson and A. Patel. Persistent local systems. Adv. in Math. 386: 107795,…
Let $\lambda\colon A\rightarrow A^{\vee}$ be a polarization on an abelian variety over a field $k$. If $k$ is not algebraically closed, there might not exist an ample line bundle on $A$ defined over $k$ that represents $\lambda$. To remedy…
We study motivic zeta functions for $\mathds{Q}$-divisors in a $\mathds{Q}$-Gorenstein variety. By using a toric partial resolution of singularities we reduce this study to the local case of two normal crossing divisors where the ambient…
Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety over a number field $k$ such that $\operatorname{End}(A)$ is noncommutative. We show that $A$ splits modulo all but finitely many primes of $k$. We prove this by considering the subalgebras of…

The singularities of theta divisors have played an important role in the study of algebraic varieties. This paper surveys some of the recent progress in this subject, using as motivation some well known results, especially those for…
We construct infinitely many abelian surfaces A defined over the rational numbers such that, for a prime ell <= 7, the ell-torsion subgroup of A is not isomorphic as a Galois module to the ell-torsion subgroup of its dual. We do this by…
We introduce and study the category of twisted modules over a triangular differential graded bocs. We show that in this category idempotents split, that it admits a natural structure of a Frobenius category, that a twisted module is…
Over a smooth complex projective curve $C$ of genus $g$ let $\M (n,d)$ be the moduli space of semistable bundles of rank $n$ and degree $d$ on $C$, and $\SM (n,L)$, the moduli space of those bundles whose determinant is isomorphic to a…
In this mostly expository note, we explain a proof of Tate's two conjectures [Tat65] for algebraic cycles of arbitrary codimension on certain products of elliptic curves and abelian surfaces over number fields.
