When a non-singular complex projective surface $X$ satisfies that $K_X\sim 0$, we shall show that there are only finitely many isomorphic classes as abstract schemes in the set of moduli scheme of $H$-semistable sheaves with fixed Chern…

We use the anti-equivalence between Cohen-Macaulay complexes and coherent sheaves on formal schemes to shed light on some older results and prove new results. We bring out the relations between a coherent sheaf M satisfying an S_2 condition…

Let Y be a compact reduced subspace of a complex manifold X, and let F be a subsheaf of the tangent bundle T_X which is closed under the Lie bracket. This paper discusses criteria to guarantee that infinitesimal deformations of the…

Let $(X, H)$ be a normal complex projective polarized variety and $\mathscr E$ an $H$-semistable sheaf on $X$. We prove that the restriction $\mathscr E\big|_C$ to a sufficiently positive general complete intersection curve $C \subset X$…

Let $f: X \to Y$ be a dominant morphism of smooth, proper and geometrically integral varieties over a number field $k$, with geometrically integral generic fibre. We give a necessary and sufficient geometric criterion for the induced map…

We consider the geometric optics problem of finding a system of two reflectors that transform a spherical wavefront into a beam of parallel rays with prescribed intensity distribution. Using techniques from optimal transportation theory, it…

We generalise Hinich's Theorem of descent of Deligne groupoids to the case where the dgLas involved have no negative cohomology. We apply this result to study the infinitesimal deformations of a morphism $\alpha: {\mathcal F} \to {\mathcal…

For an arbitrary complex algebraic variety which is not necessarily pure dimensional, the intersection complex can be defined as the direct sum of the Deligne-Goresky-MacPherson intersection complexes of each irreducible component. We give…

For a smooth projective variety $P$, we construct a Cartier divisor supported on the incidence locus in $\mathscr{C}_a (P) \times \mathscr{C}_{\dim(P)-a-1}(P)$. There is a natural definition of the corresponding line bundle on a product of…

We continue our study on infinitesimal lifting properties of maps between locally noetherian formal schemes started in math.AG/0604241. In this paper, we focus on some properties which arise specifically in the formal context. In this vein,…

Let $X_N$ be the second infinitesimal neighborhood of a closed point in $N$-dimensional affine space. In this note we study $D^b(coh\, X_N)$, the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X_N$. We show that for $N\geq 2$ the lattice…

We prove several bounds on the number of incidences between two sets of multivariate polynomials of bounded degree over finite fields. From these results, we deduce bounds on incidences between points and multivariate polynomials, extending…

We prove, for quasicompact separated schemes over ground fields, that Cech cohomology coincides with sheaf cohomology with respect to the Nisnevich topology. This is a partial generalization of Artin's result that for noetherian schemes…

Incidence varieties are spaces of $n$-tuples of points in the projective plane that satisfy a given set of collinearity conditions. We classify the components of incidence varieties and realization moduli spaces associated to configurations…

We study families of rational curves on an algebraic variety satisfying incidence conditions. We prove an analogue of bend-and-break: that is, we show that under suitable conditions, such a family must contain reducibles. In the case of…

Let $P$ be a set of points and $L$ a set of lines in the (extended) Euclidean plane, and $I \subseteq P\times L$, where $i =(p,l) \in I$ means that point $p$ and line $l$ are incident. The incidences can be interpreted as quadratic…

We relate Nakajima Quiver Varieties (or, rather, their multiplicative version) with moduli spaces of perverse sheaves. More precisely, we consider a generalization of the concept of perverse sheaves: microlocal sheaves on a nodal curve X.…

Let $Y$ be an algebraic variety, $\mathcal{F}$ a locally free sheaf of $\mathcal{O}_Y$-modules, and $\mathcal{R}(\mathcal{F})$ the $\mathcal{O}_Y$-algebra $\operatorname{Sym}^\bullet \mathcal{F}$. In this paper we study local properties of…

Let $k$ be a field, $f \colon X \to Y$ a birational morphism of integral connected schemes proper over $k$ with $Y$ normal, $x \in X(k)$ lying over $y \in Y(k)$. For Tannakian categories $\cC_X \subset \Vect(X)$ and $\cC_Y \subset…

We define a derived enhancement of the hyperquot scheme (also known as nested Quot scheme), which classically parametrises flags of quotients of a perfect coherent sheaf on a projective scheme. We prove it is representable by a derived…
