Given a curve $C$ that is a degree $k$ cover $C \to \mathbb{P}^1$ totally ramified at two points $p$ and $q$, we can seek to understand the space of degree $d$ line bundles on $C$ with prescribed ramification at $p$ and $q$. The…
A degree $d$ genus $g$ cover of the complex projective line by a smooth irreducible curve $C$ yields a vector bundle on the projective line by pushforward of the structure sheaf. We classify the bundles that arise this way when $d = 5$.…
Given a complex curve C of genus 2, there is a well-known relationship between the moduli space of rank 3 semistable bundles on C and a cubic hypersurface known as the Coble cubic. Some of the aspects of this is known to be related to the…
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…
We study the cohomology of a general stable sheaf on an abelian surface. We say that a moduli space satisfies weak Brill-Noether if the general sheaf has at most one non-zero cohomology group. Let $(X,H)$ be a polarized abelian surface and…
Rank 2 indecomposable arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay bundles E on a nonsingular cubic surface X in P^3 are classified, by means of the possible forms taken by the minimal graded free resolution of E over P^3. The admissible values of the…
We construct explicit dominant, rational morphisms from projective bundles over rational varieties to relevant moduli spaces, showing their unirationality. These constructions work for $U_{r,d,g}$; for all ranks, degrees and genus $2\leq g…
A necessary and sufficient condition is given for semi-ampleness of a numerically effective (nef) and big line bundle in positive characteristic. One application is to the geometry of the universal stable curve over M_g, specifically, the…
Let $M$ be the moduli space of rank 3 stable bundles with fixed determinant of degree 1 on a smooth projective curve of genus $g\geq 2$. When $C$ is generic, we show that any essential elliptic curve on $M$ has degree (respect to…
Farkas and Ortega found counterexamples to Mercat's conjecture by restricting to a hyperplane section $C$ some suitable rank-two vector bundles on a $K3$ surface whose Picard group is generated by $C$ and another very ample divisor. We…
Generalizing the Martens theorem for line bundles over a curve $C$, we obtain upper bounds on the dimension of the Brill--Noether locus $B^k_{n, d}$ parametrizing stable bundles of rank $n \ge 2$ and degree $d$ over $C$ with at least $k$…
Let S be a ruled surface without sections of negative self-intersection. We classify the irreducible components of the moduli stack of torsion-free sheaves of rank 2 sheaves on S. We also classify the irreducible components of the…
We give an almost complete classification of non-big Ulrich vector bundles on fourfolds. This allows to classify them in the case of Picard rank one fourfolds, of Mukai fourfolds and in the case of Del Pezzo $n$-folds for $n \le 4$. We also…
We prove that the normal bundle of a general Brill-Noether curve of genus $g \geq 1$ and degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^r$ is semistable if $g=1$ or $g\geq \left \lceil \frac{5r}{2}\right\rceil r(r-1)$, or $d$ is larger than an explicit function…
We give normal forms of determinantal representations of a smooth projective plane cubic in terms of Moore matrices. Building on this, we exhibit matrix factorizations for all indecomposable vector bundles of rank 2 and degree 0 without…
Let $\M_g$ be the course moduli space of complex projective nonsingular curves of genus $g$. We prove that when the Brill-Noether number $\rho(g,r,n)$ is non-negative every component of the Petri locus $P^r_{g,n}\subset \M_g$ whose general…
We extend the notion of Clifford index to reduced curves with planar singularities by considering rank 1 torsion free sheaves. We investigate the behaviour of the Clifford index with respect to the combinatorial properties of the curve and…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g\ge 3$ and $M_0$ be the moduli space of rank 2 semistable bundles over $X$ with trivial determinant. There are three desingularizations of this singular moduli space constructed by…
In this short note, we observe that Theorem 3.1 in arXiv:1508.00682 for semiorthogonal indecomposability of the derived category of smooth DM stacks based on the canonical bundle can be extended to the case of projective varieties with…
In this paper we study asymptotic directions in the tangent bundle of the moduli space ${\mathcal M}_g$ of curves of genus $g$, namely those tangent directions that are annihilated by the second fundamental form of the Torelli map. We give…
