Let $Y_{1},\dots,Y_{l}$ be smooth irreducible projective curves and let $Y$ be its disjoint union. Given a semisimple reductive algebraic group $G$ and a faithful representation $\rho:G\hookrightarrow \textrm{SL}(V)$ we construct a…

Let $(V,q)$ be a vector bundle on a smooth projective curve $X$ together with a quadratic form $q: \mathrm{Sym}^2(V) \ra \mathcal{O}_X$ (respectively symplectic form $q: \Lambda^2V \ra \mathcal{O}_X$). Fixing the degeneracy locus of the…

Some coherent sheaves on projective varieties have a non reduced versal deformation space. For example, this is the case for most unstable rank 2 vector bundles on ${\mathbb P}_2$. In particular, it may happen that some moduli spaces of…

We study the stable rationality problem for quadric and cubic surface bundles over surfaces from the point of view of the degeneration method for the Chow group of 0-cycles. Our main result is that a very general hypersurface X of bidegree…

We construct bordifications of the moduli spaces of tropical curves and of tropical abelian varieties, and show that the tropical Torelli map extends to their bordifications. We prove that the classical bi-invariant differential forms…

We construct Bridgeland stability conditions on the derived category of smooth quasi-projective Deligne-Mumford surfaces whose coarse moduli spaces have ADE singularities. This unifies the construction for smooth surfaces and Bridgeland's…

This article consists of two parts. The first part is a survey on the normal reduction numbers of normal surface singularities. It includes results on elliptic singularities, cone-like singularities and homogeneous hypersurface…

Let $\mathbf{R}_d$ be the space of stable sheaves $F$ which satisfy the Hilbert polynomial $\chi(F(m))=dm+1$ and are supported on rational curves in the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. Then $\mathbf{R}_1$ (resp. $\mathbf{R}_2$) is…

We construct a moduli space of stable projective pairs with a nontrivial action of a connected reductive group. These stable reductive pairs are higher-dimensional analogs of stable n-pointed curves and generalize to the non-commutative…

The new compactification of moduli scheme of Gieseker-stable vector bundles with the given Hilbert polynomial on a smooth projective polarized surface (S;H), over the field k = \bar k of zero characteristic, is constructed in previous…

A finite subgroup of the conformal group SL(2,C) can be related to invariant polynomials on a hypersurface in C^3. The latter then carries a simple singularity, which resolves by a finite iteration of basic cycles of deprojections. The…

We compactify the moduli stack of maps from curves to certain quotient stacks $\mathcal{X}=[W/G]$ with a projective good moduli space, extending previous results from quasimap theory. For doing so, we introduce a new birational…

Using the theory of moduli of curves, we establish various slope inequalities for general fibered surfaces. More precisely, we introduce the notion of functorial divisors on Artin stacks and prove a theorem concerning their effectiveness.…

We introduce the notion of a simultaneous categorical resolution of singularities, a categorical version of simultaneous resolutions of rational double points of surface degenerations. Furthermore, we suggest a construction of simultaneous…

The stable reduction theorem of Deligne and Mumford --- The moduli space of smooth projective curves of genus $g$ is a quasi-projective algebraic variety, but is not projective. To understand its geometry, it may be crucial to consider…

We sharpen the two main tools used to treat the compactified Jacobian of a singular curve: Abel maps and presentation schemes. First we prove a smoothness theorem for bigraded Abel maps. Second we study the two complementary filtrations…

In the famous paper of Deligne and Mumford, they proved that a proper hyperbolic curve over a discrete valuation field has stable reduction if and only if the Jacobian variety of the curve has stable reduction in the case where the residue…

We study the singularities of the moduli space of degree $e$ maps from smooth genus $g$ curves to an arbitrary smooth hypersurface of low degree. For $e$ large compared to $g$, we show that these moduli spaces have at worst terminal…
