We prove an effective restriction theorem for stable vector bundles $E$ on a smooth projective variety: $E|_D$ is (semi)stable for all irreducible divisors $D \in |kH|$ for all $k$ greater than an explicit constant. As an application, we…

A stratified bundle is a vector bundle which is a D-module. We show that regular singularity of stratified bundles on smooth varieties in positive characteristic is preserved by pullback and that regular singularity can be checked on…

Roughly speaking, a conic bundle is a surface, fibered over a curve, such that the fibers are conics (not necessarily smooth). We define stability for conic bundles and construct a moduli space. We prove that (after fixing some invariants)…

We show the stability of certain syzygies of line bundles on curves, which we call transforms, and are kernels of the evaluation map on subspaces of the space of global sections. For the transforms constructed, we prove the existence of…

We give a combinatorial criterion for the tangent bundle on a smooth toric variety to be stable with respect to a given polarisation in terms of the corresponding lattice polytope. Furthermore, we show that for a smooth toric surface and a…

We give a $K$-theoretic criterion for a quasi-projective variety to be smooth. If $\mathbb{L}$ is a line bundle corresponding to an ample invertible sheaf on $X$, it suffices that $K_q(X) = K_q(\mathbb{L})$ for all $q\le\dim(X)+1$.

This is a continuation of "Rational families of vector bundles on curves, I". Let C be a smooth projective curve of genus at least 2 and let M be the moduli space of rank 2, stable vector bundles on C, with fixed determinant of degree 1.…

A graph $X$ is said to be unstable if the direct product $X\times K_2$ (also called the canonical double cover of $X$) has automorphisms that do not come from automorphisms of its factors $X$ and $K_2$. It is non-trivially unstable if it is…

We investigate the injectivity of the Frobenius map on thickenings of smooth varieties in projective space over a field of positive characteristic. We obtain uniform bounds -- i.e., independent of the characteristic -- on the thickening…

Let M be a projective fine moduli space of stable sheaves on a smooth projective variety X with a universal family E. We prove that in four examples, E can be realized as a complete flat family of stable sheaves on M parametrized by X,…

Let $X$ be a non-singular irreducible complex projective curve of genus $g\geq 2$. We use $(t,\ell)$-stability to prove the existence of coherent systems over $X$ that are $\alpha$-stable for all allowed $\alpha >0$.

We prove an analogue of the Madsen-Weiss theorem for high dimensional manifolds. For example, we explicitly describe the ring of characteristic classes of smooth fibre bundles whose fibres are connected sums of g copies of S^n x S^n, in the…

We show that algebraic equivalence of images of stable maps of curves lifts to deformation equivalence of the stable maps. The main applications concern $A_1(X)$, the group of 1-cycles modulo algebraic equivalence, for smooth, separably…

We classify projective symmetries of irreducible plane sextics with simple singularities which are stable under equivariant deformations. We also outline a connection between order~2 stable symmetries and maximal trigonal curves.

Let $C$ be a nonsingular projective curve of genus $g\ge2$ defined over the complex numbers, and let $M_{\xi}$ denote the moduli space of stable bundles of rank $n$ and determinant $\xi$ on $C$, where $\xi$ is a line bundle of degree $d$ on…

In this paper, we study an algebraic fiber space in positive characteristic whose generic fiber $F$ has finitely generated canonical ring and sufficiently large Frobenius stable canonical ring. An example of such a case is when $F$ is…

A stable map of a closed orientable $3$-manifold into the real plane is called a stable map of a link in the manifold if the link is contained in the set of definite fold points. We give a complete characterization of the hyperbolic links…

We prove the existence (in characteristic 0) on every polarized (smooth, projective and connected) surface of stable bundles of rank $r\geq 2$, arbitrary first Chern class and large enough $c_2$.

We define Hecke transformation for orthogonal bundles over a compact Riemann surface. Using the cycles on a moduli space of orthogonal bundles given by Hecke transformations, we prove that the projectivized Picard bundle on the moduli space…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety. Define a stable map $f:C\to X$ to be "eventually smoothable" if there is an embedding $X\hookrightarrow\mathbb{P}^N$ such that $(C,f)$ occurs as the limit of a $1$-parameter family of stable maps to…
