Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve over the field of complex numbers $\mathbb{C}$ of genus $g(C)>0$. Let $E$ be a locally free sheaf on $C$ of rank $r$ and degree $e$. Let $\mathcal{Q}:={\rm Quot}_{C/\mathbb{C}}(E,k,d)$ denote the Quot…
In a previous paper we have classified the smooth projective symmetric G-varieties with Picard number one (and G semisimple). In this work we give a geometrical description of such varieties. In particular, we determine their group of…
Let G be a finite group acting faithfully on an irreducible non-singular projective curve defined over an algebraically closed field F. Does every G-invariant divisor class contain a G-invariant divisor? The answer depends only on G and not…
We prove that the automorphism group of the dihedral quandle with n elements is isomorphic to the affine group of the integers mod n, and also obtain the inner automorphism group of this quandle. In [9], automorphism groups of quandles (up…
The main subject of this work is the difference between the coarse moduli space and the stack of hyperelliptic curves. We compute their Picard groups, giving explicit description of the generators. We get an application to the…
Let $\mathfrak{X}$ be a formal smooth curve over a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic and let $\mathfrak{X}\_K$ be its generic fiber. We consider respectively over $\mathfrak{X}$ and $\X\_K$ the sheaves of differential…
We compute the Picard group of the moduli stack of smooth curves of genus $g$ for $3\leq g\leq 5$, using methods of equivariant intersection theory. We base our proof on the computation of some relations in the integral Chow ring of certain…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. The set $\cha(X)$ of one-dimensional complex valued characters of the fundamental group of $X$ forms an algebraic group. Consider the subset of $\cha(X)$ consisting of those characters for which the…
Let $\mathcal{V}$ be an integral normal complex projective variety of dimension $n\geq 3$ and denote by $\mathcal{L}$ an ample line bundle on $\mathcal{V}$. By imposing that the linear system $|\mathcal{L}|$ contains an element…
For the cyclic group $C_2$ we give a complete description of the derived category of perfect complexes of modules over the constant Mackey ring $\underline{\mathbb{Z}/\ell}$, for $\ell$ a prime. This is fairly simple for $\ell$ odd, but for…
For any smooth connected linear algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field k, we describe the Picard group of the universal moduli stack of principal G-bundles over pointed smooth k-projective curves.
In this paper, we study the category of twisted sheaves over a scheme $X$. Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a quasi-coherent sheaf on $X$, and $\alpha$ in $\operatorname{Br}(X)$. We show that the functor $ - \otimes_{\mathcal{O}_X} \mathcal{M} :…
Let k be a field of characteristic 0 and let X be a smooth geometrically integral k-variety. In our previous paper we defined the extended Picard complex UPic(X) as a certain complex of Galois modules in degrees 0 and 1. We computed the…
Illusie has suggested that one should think of the classifying group of $M_X^{gp}$-torsors on a logarithmically smooth curve $X$ over a standard logarithmic point as a logarithmic analogue of the Picard group of $X$. This logarithmic Picard…
We study Picard groups and Picard functors of perfectoid spaces which are limits of rigid spaces. For sufficiently large covers that are limits of rigid spaces of good reduction, we show that the Picard functor can be represented by the…
Let $G$ be a complex simply connected semisimple Lie group and let $\Gamma$ be a torsionless uniform irreducible lattice in $G$. Then $\Gamma\backslash G$ is a compact complex non-K\"ahler manifold whose tangent bundle is holomorphically…
We construct a well-behaved stable category of modules for a large class of infinite groups. We then consider its Picard group, which is the group of invertible (or endotrivial) modules. We show how this group can be calculated when the…
Let ${\cal M}_{g,[n]}$, for $2g-2+n>0$, be the D-M moduli stack of smooth curves of genus $g$ labeled by $n$ unordered distinct points. The main result of the paper is that a finite, connected \'etale cover ${\cal M}^\l$ of ${\cal…
For a finite group $G$, there is a map $RO(G) \to {\rm Pic}(Sp^G)$ from the real representation ring of $G$ to the Picard group of $G$-spectra. This map is not known to be surjective in general, but we prove that when $G$ is cyclic this map…
Given a connected reductive algebraic group G, we investigate the Picard group of the moduli stack of principal G-bundles over an arbitrary family of smooth curves.
