Algebraic and geometric structures associated with Birkhoff strata of Sato Grassmannian are analyzed. It is shown that each Birkhoff stratum $\Sigma_S$ contains a subset $W_{\hat{S}}$ of points for which each fiber of the corresponding…
Local properties of families of algebraic subsets $W_g$ in Birkhoff strata $\Sigma_{2g}$ of Gr$^{(2)}$ containing hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ are studied. It is shown that the tangent spaces $T_g$ for $W_g$ are isomorphic to linear…
Cohomological and Poisson structures associated with the special tautological subbundles $TB_{W_{1,2,\dots,n}}$ for the Birkhoff strata of Sato Grassmannian are considered. It is shown that the tangent bundles of $TB_{W_{1,2,\dots,n}}$ are…
In this note, we give a so-called representative classification for the strata by automorphism group of smooth $\bar{k}$-plane curves of genus $6$, where $\bar{k}$ is a fixed separable closure of a field $k$ of characteristic $p = 0$ or $p…
We study universal families of stable genus two curves with level structure. Among other things, it is shown that the (1,1) part is spanned by divisor classes, and that there are no cycles of type (2,2) in the third cohomology of the first…
We study algebraic subvarieties of strata of differentials in genus zero satisfying algebraic relations among periods. The main results are Ax-Schanuel and Andr\'e-Oort-type theorems in genus zero. As a consequence, one obtains several…
We introduce the moduli space $R \bar{M}_{2k,l}$ of pointed real curves of genus zero and give its natural stratification. The strata of $R \bar{M}_{2k,l}$ correspond to real curves of genus zero with different degeneration types and are…
Towers of algebraic function fields over finite fields play a fundamental role in arithmetic geometry and coding theory. Classical examples arising from modular and Drinfeld modular curves exhibit asymptotically good behavior. In this…
The moduli space $\bar{M}_S^\sigma(R)$ parameterizes the isomorphism classes of $S$-pointed stable real curves of genus zero which are invariant under relabeling by the involution $\sigma$. This moduli space is stratified according to the…
In this paper, we study double structures supported on rational normal curves. After recalling the general construction of double structures supported on a smooth curve described in \cite{fer}, we specialize it to double structures on…
We study families of scrolls containing a given rational curve and families of rational curves contained in a fixed scroll via a stratification in terms of the degree of the induced map onto P^1 and we prove that there is no rational normal…
The Birkhoff polytope $\Omega_n$ is the polytope of doubly stochastic matrices of order $n$. The Birkhoff polytope graph $G(\Omega_n)$ is the skeleton of $\Omega_n$; it is the Cayley graph whose vertex set consists of the elements of the…
We consider the sector of N=8 five-dimensional gauged supergravity with non-trivial scalar fields in the coset space SL(6,R)/SO(6), plus the metric. We find that the most general supersymmetric solution is parametrized by six real moduli…
We study the geometry of an important class of generic curves in the Grassmannian manifolds of $n$-dimensional subspaces and Lagrangian subspaces of $R^{2n}$ under the action of the linear and linear symplectic group.
In this paper we give a precise classification of the pairs $(C,\widetilde{B})$ with $C$ a smooth curve of genus $g$ and $\widetilde{B}\subset C^{(2)}$ a curve of degree two and positive self-intersection. We prove that there are no such…
The quaternionic Grassmannian HGr(r,n) is the affine open subscheme of the ordinary Grassmannian parametrizing those 2r-dimensional subspaces of a 2n-dimensional symplectic vector space on which the symplectic form is nondegenerate. In…
Gaudin subalgebras are abelian Lie subalgebras of maximal dimension spanned by generators of the Kohno-Drinfeld Lie algebra t_n. We show that Gaudin subalgebras form a variety isomorphic to the moduli space of stable curves of genus zero…
We address the inverse problem for holomorphic germs of a tangent-to-identity mapping of the complex line near a fixed point. We provide a preferred (family of) parabolic map $\Delta$ realizing a given Birkhoff--{\'E}calle-Voronin modulus…
Let $\Gamma$ be a chain of cycles of genus $g$. Let $d$,$r$ be integers with $1 \leq r \leq g-2$ and $2r\leq d \leq g-3+r$. Then $w^r_d(\Gamma)=d-2r$ implies $\Gamma$ is hyperelliptic. For each $g \geq 2r+3$ there exist non-hyperelliptic…
