We exhibit moduli spaces of slope stable vector bundles on general polarized HK varieties $(X,h)$ of type $K3^{[2]}$ which have an irreducible component of dimension $2a^2+2$, with $a$ an arbitrary integer greater than $1$. This is done by…

We construct geometric compactifications of the moduli space $F_{2d}$ of polarized K3 surfaces, in any degree $2d$. Our construction is via KSBA theory, by considering canonical choices of divisor $R\in |nL|$ on each polarized K3 surface…

We consider moduli stacks of Bridgeland semistable objects that previously had only set-theoretic identifications with Uhlenbeck compactification spaces. On a K3 surface $X$, we give examples where such a moduli stack is isomorphic to a…

Given a smooth projective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field $k$, we compute the Chow ring of the Hilbert scheme of three points on $X$, $\operatorname{Hilb}^3(X)$, as an algebra with generators and relations over the Chow ring…

We compute explicit rational models for some Hilbert modular surfaces corresponding to square discriminants, by connecting them to moduli spaces of elliptic K3 surfaces. Since they parametrize decomposable principally polarized abelian…

We generalize some results in the literature on movable curve classes and slope stability of coherent sheaves on smooth projective varieties to the case of smooth proper DM stacks admitting projective coarse moduli spaces. As an…

The moduli spaces of stable surfaces serve as compactifications of the moduli spaces of canonical models of smooth surfaces in the same way the moduli spaces of stable curves compactify the moduli spaces of smooth curves. However, the…

We work on a projective threefold $X$ which satisfies the Bogomolov-Gieseker conjecture of Bayer-Macr\`i-Toda, such as $\mathbb P^3$ or the quintic threefold. We prove certain moduli spaces of 2-dimensional torsion sheaves on $X$ are smooth…

We generalize Macdonald's formula for the cohomology of Hilbert schemes of points on a curve from smooth curves to curves with planar singularities: we relate the cohomology of the Hilbert schemes to the cohomology of the compactified…

We study the moduli space of stable sheaves of Euler characteristic 1, supported on curves of arithmetic genus 2 contained in a smooth quadric surface. We show that this moduli space is rational. We give a classification of the stable…

We define certain stacks of rank one sheaves on a smooth projective variety, and show that they admit proper good moduli spaces. We offer several applications to contractions of subschemes inside Hilbert schemes of points. We construct a…

We introduce a notion of stability for sheaves with respect to several polarisations that generalises the usual notion of Gieseker-stability. We prove, under a boundedness assumption, which we show to hold on threefolds or for rank two…

In this paper, we prove that the moduli space $\overline{M}_{X}(\nu)$ of $H$-Gieseker semistable sheaves on a smooth cubic threefold $X$ with Chern character $\nu=(4,-H,-\frac{5}{6}H^{2},\frac{1}{6}H^{3})$ is non-empty, smooth and…
