Given an ample line bundle L on a K3 surface S, we study the slope stability with respect to L of rank-3 Lazarsfeld-Mukai bundles associated with complete, base point free nets of type g^2_d on curves C in the linear system |L|. When d is…

Let $C$ be a curve of genus $g\geq 2$. A coherent system on $C$ consists of a pair $(E,V)$ where $E$ is an algebraic vector bundle of rank $n$ and degree $d$ and $V$ is a subspace of dimension $k$ of sections of $E$. The stability of the…

New local and global non-abelian zeta functions for elliptic curves are studied using certain refined Brill-Noether loci in moduli spaces of semi-stable bundles. Examples of these zeta functions and a justification of using only semi-stable…

We study rank-2 wobbly bundles on a Riemann surface $C$ of genus $g\geq 2$, i.e. semi-stable bundles admitting nonzero nilpotent Higgs fields, in terms of direct images of line bundles on smooth spectral curves $\tilde{C}…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g>0$. We describe an open locus of Bridgeland stability conditions on the bounded derived category of coherent systems on $C$, and show that stability manifold detects the Brill--Noether theory…

We describe a conjectural stratification of the Brill-Noether variety for general curves of fixed genus and gonality. As evidence for this conjecture, we show that this Brill-Noether variety has at least as many irreducible components as…

We study the existence of linear series on curves lying on an Enriques surface and general in their complete linear system. Using a method that works also below the Bogomolov-Reider range, we compute, in all cases, the gonality of such…

A first step towards a systematic theory of relative line bundles over SUSY-curves is presented. In this paper we deal with the case of relative line bundles over families of ordinary Riemann surfaces. Generalizations of the Gauss-Bonnet…

Our purpose in this paper is to construct new examples of twisted Brill Noether loci on curves of genus g greater than 2 with negative expected dimension. We begin by completing the proof of Butler's conjecture for coherent systems of…

We study the Brill-Noether stratification of the coarse moduli space of locally free stable and flat sheaves of a compact Kahler manifold, proving that these strata have quadratic algebraic singularities.

It was recently determined exactly through how many general points a nondegenerate curve with nonspecial hyperplane section can pass. This gives rise to a method of constructing reducible curves $C_1 \cup_\Gamma C_2 \to \mathbb{P}^r$ with…

We construct coarse moduli spaces for `Brill-Noether pairs'. Such a pair consists of a torsion-free sheaf $E$ over an algebraic curve $X$ and a vector subspace $\Lambda$ of its space of sections $H^0(E)$. The construction works for an…

The moduli space of Gieseker vector bundles is a compactification of moduli of vector bundles on a nodal curve. This moduli space has only normal crossing singularity and it provides a flat degeneration. We prove a Torelli type theorem for…

We investigate the study of smooth irreducible rational curves in $Y_s^r$, a general blowup of $\mathbb{P}^r$ at $s$ general points, whose normal bundle splits as a direct sum of line bundles all of degree $i$, for $i \in \{-1,0,1\}$: we…

The classical Brill-Noether theorems count the dimension of the family of maps from a general curve of genus g to non-degenerate curves of degree d in r-dimensional projective space. These theorems can be extended to include ramification…

We prove the irreducibility of the moduli space of rank 2 semistable torsion free sheaves (with a generic polarization and any value of c_2) on a K3 or a del Pezzo surface. In the case of a K3 surface, we need to prove a result on the…

We investigate the analogy between squarefree Cohen-Macaulay modules supported on a graph and line bundles on a curve. We prove a Riemann-Roch theorem, we study the Jacobian and gonality of a graph, and we prove Clifford's theorem.

Lazarsfeld proved Brill--Noether generality of any smooth curve in the linear system $|H|$ where $(X,H)$ is a polarized K3 surface with $\mathrm{Pic}(X) = \mathbb{Z}\cdot H$. Mukai introduced the notion of Brill--Noether generality for…

Mukai showed that projective models of Brill-Noether general polarized K3 surfaces of genus $6-10$ and $12$ are obtained as linear sections of projective homogeneous varieties, and that their hyperplane sections are Brill-Noether general…

In an influential 2008 paper, Baker proposed a number of conjectures relating the divisor theory of algebraic curves with an analogous combinatorial theory on finite graphs. In this note, we examine Baker's Brill--Noether existence…
