In this paper we study the Hilbert scheme, Hilb(P), of equidimensional locally Cohen-Macaulay codimension 2 subschemes, with a special look to surfaces in P^4 and 3-folds in P^5, and the Hilbert scheme stratification H_{c} of constant…

In this paper, we prove that the divisor class group of a double cover of the complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ is generated by divisorial sheaves whose direct images split into direct sums of two invertible sheaves on $\mathbb{P}^n$.…

We give a moduli-theoretic treatment of the existence and properties of moduli spaces of semistable quiver representations, avoiding methods from geometric invariant theory. Using the existence criteria of Alper--Halpern-Leistner--Heinloth,…

Let $M(n,\xi)$ be the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank $n\geq 3$ and fixed determinant $\xi$ over a smooth projective algebraic curve $X$ over $\mathbb{C}$ of genus $g\geq 4.$ We use the gonality of the curve and $r$-Hecke…

Let $\pi:Y\to X$ be a surjective morphism between two irreducible, smooth complex projective varieties with ${\rm dim}Y>{\rm dim}X >0$. We consider polarizations of the form $L_c=L+c\cdot\pi^*A$ on $Y$, with $c>0$, where $L,A$ are ample…

The aim of this paper is to give a unified definition of a large class of discriminants arising in algebraic geometry using the discriminant of a morphism of locally free sheaves. The discriminant of a morphism of locally free sheaves has a…

Orders on surfaces provide a rich source of examples of noncommutative surfaces. Other than some existence results, very little is known about the various moduli spaces that can be associated to them. Even fewer examples have been…

We develop a new general method for computing the decomposition type of the normal bundle to a projective rational curve. This method is then used to detect and explain an example of a Hilbert scheme that parametrizes all the rational…

In the Hilbert scheme of curves of degree $d_{r}=\frac{r(r+1)}{2}$ and arithmetic genus $g_{r}=\frac{r(r+1)(2r-5)}{6}+1$ in $\mathbb{P}^{3}$ we prove that there exists a unique component of arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay curves denoted by…

For any finite poset P we introduce a homogeneous space as a quotient of the general linear group with the incidence group of P. When P is a chain this quotient is a flag variety; for the trivial poset our construction gives a variety…

For each $A\in\N^n$ we define a Schubert variety $\sh_A$ as a closure of the $\Slt(\C[t])$-orbit in the projectivization of the fusion product $M^A$. We clarify the connection of the geometry of the Schubert varieties with an algebraic…
