We study GIT quotients $X_\theta=V\!/\!\!/\!_\theta G$ whose linearisation map defines an isomorphism between the group of characters of $G$ and the Picard group of $X_\theta$ modulo torsion. Our main result establishes that the Cox ring of…

This is the first part in a series of papers on counting surfaces on Calabi-Yau 4-folds. Besides the Hilbert scheme of 2-dimensional subschemes, we introduce \emph{two} types of moduli spaces of stable pairs. We show that all three moduli…

A dimer model is a bipartite graph described on the real two-torus, and it gives the quiver as the dual graph. It is known that for any three-dimensional Gorenstein toric singularity, there exists a dimer model such that a GIT quotient…

This paper studies the canonical Chow quotient of a smooth projective variety by a reductive algebraic group. The main purpose is to give some topological interpretations and characterization of Chow quotient which have the advantage to be…

We consider the action of the one-parameter subgroup of the special linear group corresponding to a simple root on Grassmannians and describe the structure of the associated Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) quotients with respect to…

Extending work of Klyachko and Perling, we develop a combinatorial description of pure equivariant sheaves of any dimension on an arbitrary nonsingular toric variety $X$. Using geometric invariant theory (GIT), this allows us to construct…

We introduce the $G$-stable rank of a higher order tensors over perfect fields. The $G$-stable rank is related to the Hilbert-Mumford criterion for stability in Geometric Invariant Theory. We will relate the $G$-stable rank to the tensor…

The main result of this article is that the component of the Alexeev-Koll\'{a}r-Shepherd-Barron moduli space of stable surfaces parameterizing stable degenerations of symmetric squares of curves is isomorphic to the moduli space of stable…

We show that a smooth projective curve of genus $g$ can be reconstructed from its polarized Jacobian $(X, \Theta)$ as a certain locus in the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^d(X)$, for $d=3$ and for $d=g+2$, defined by geometric conditions in…

We show that for any stable sheaf $E$ of slope $> 2g-1$ on a smooth, projective curve of genus $g$, the associated Picard sheaf $\hat{E}$ on the Picard variety of the curve is stable. We introduce a homological tool for testing…

Mukai showed that the GIT quotient $\operatorname{Gr}(7,16) /\!/ \operatorname{Spin}(10)$ is a birational model of the moduli space of Deligne-Mumford stable genus 7 curves $\overline{M}_7$. The key observation is that a general smooth…

The Hilbert scheme $X^{[3]}$ of length-$3$ subschemes of a smooth projective variety $X$ is known to be smooth and projective. We investigate whether the property of having a multiplicative Chow-Kuenneth decomposition is stable under taking…

Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime number and let $G = SL_2(\mathbb{Q}_p)$. Let $\Xi$ = Spec$(Z)$ denote the spectrum of the centre $Z$ of the pro-$p$ Iwahori Hecke algebra of $G$ with coefficients in a field $k$ of characteristic $p$. Let…

We denote by $\mathcal{H}_{d,g,r}$ the Hilbert scheme of smooth curves, which is the union of components whose general point corresponds to a smooth irreducible and non-degenerate curve of degree $d$ and genus $g$ in $\mathbb{P}^r$. In this…

We study moduli space of higher rank marginally stable pairs (E,s:= (s_1,..., s_r)) consisting of torsion free coherent sheaf E of rank r and r sections (s_1,..., s_r) on a smooth projective surface. Having fixed the Chern character of E,…

In this paper we introduce the moduli stack $\widetilde{\mathscr{M}}_{g,n}$ of $n$-marked stable at most cuspidal curves of genus $g$ and we use it to determine the integral Chow ring of $\overline{\mathscr{M}}_{2,1}$. Along the way, we…

The aim of this paper is to show that classical geometric invariant theory (GIT) has an effective analogue for linear actions of a non-reductive algebraic group $H$ with graded unipotent radical on a projective scheme $X$. Here the linear…

The logarithmic Hilbert scheme of a logarithmic curve parametrizes subschemes on the expanded degenerations of the curve that are transverse to the boundary. We prove that the logarithmic Hilbert scheme of points on a smooth pointed curve…

We show that for any numerical semigroup H of genus g at most 6, the locus of Weierstrass points on curves of genus g with Weierstrass semigroup H is irreducible and that for all but possibly two semigroups it is stably rational.

We compute the Hodge numbers of the moduli space of semi-stable sheaves on the complex projective plane supported on quintic curves and having Euler characteristic 3. For this purpose we study the fixed-point set for a certain torus action…
