We describe the cone of Hilbert functions of artinian graded modules finitely generated in degree 0 over the polynomial ring R = k[x, y] with the non-standard grading deg(x) = 1 and deg(y) = n, where n is any natural number.
We review a proof of the well know result stating that moduli spaces of stable sheaves with fixed Chern character on a polarized $K3$ surface are deformations of a hyperk\"ahler variety of Type $K3^{[n]}$ (if a suitable numerical hypothesis…
Given a perverse sheaf on the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian varieties or the moduli stack of smooth curves with n marked points over a field of characteristic zero, we prove that the (orbifold) Euler characteristic is…
We show that the $b$-constant (appearing in Manin's conjecture) is constant on very general fibers of a family of algebraic varieties. If the fibers of the family are uniruled, then we show that the $b$-constant is constant on general…
Given a family of analytic functions near 0 \in C^n parametrized by a smooth space, we study the Bernstein polynomial of the fiber on an irreducible variety V of the space of parameters and we show that it is generically constant. We prove…
We study deformations of holomorphic function germs $f:(X,0)\to\mathbb C$ where $(X,0)$ is an ICIS. We present conditions for these deformations to have constant Milnor number, Euler obstruction and Bruce-Roberts number.
We show three basic properties on the image Milnor number $\mu_I(f)$ of a germ $f\colon(\mathbb{C}^{n},S)\rightarrow(\mathbb{C}^{n+1},0)$ with isolated instability. First, we show the conservation of the image Milnor number, from which one…
We show how formal and rigid geometry can be used in the theory of complex singularities, and in particular in the study of the Milnor fibration and the motivic zeta function. We introduce the so-called analytic Milnor fiber associated to…
We show that the Hodge numbers of the moduli space of stable rank two sheaves with primitive determinant on a K3 surface coincide with the Hodge numbers of an appropriate Hilbert scheme of points on the K3 surface. The precise result is:…
The motivic Hilbert zeta function of a variety is the generating function for classes in the Grothendieck ring of varieties of Hilbert schemes of points of the variety. In this paper, the motivic Hilbert zeta function of a reduced curve is…
Let $X$ be a complex $K3$ surface with an effective action of a group $G$ which preserves the holomorphic symplectic form. Let $$ Z_{X,G}(q) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} e\left(\operatorname{Hilb}^{n}(X)^{G} \right)\, q^{n-1} $$ be the generating…
Consider the discrete cubic Hilbert transform defined on finitely supported functions $f$ on $\mathbb{Z}$ by \begin{eqnarray*} H_3f(n) = \sum_{m \not = 0} \frac{f(n- m^3)}{m}. \end{eqnarray*} We prove that there exists $r <2$ and universal…
Apparently a lost theorem of Thurston states that the cube of the Euler class $e^3\in H^6(BDiff^{\delta}_{\omega}(S^1);\mathbb{Q})$ is zero where $Diff^{\delta}_{\omega}(S^1)$ is the analytic orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of the…
The motivic zeta function of a smooth and proper $\mathbb{C}((t))$-variety $X$ with trivial canonical bundle is a rational function with coefficients in an appropriate Grothendieck ring of complex varieties, which measures how $X$…
We prove that the locus of Hilbert schemes of n points on a projective K3 surface is dense in the moduli space of irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds of that deformation type. The analogous result for generalized Kummer manifolds…
Let $X$ be a projective K3 surfaces. In two examples where there exists a fine moduli space $M$ of stable vector bundles on $X$, isomorphic to a Hilbert scheme of points, we prove that the universal family $\mathcal{E}$ on $X\times M$ can…
Let $K$ be the K3 manifold. In this note, we discuss two methods to prove that certain generalized Miller--Morita--Mumford classes for smooth bundles with fiber $K$ are non-zero. As a consequence, we fill a gap in a paper of the first…
The well-known Zalcman conjecture, which implies the Bieberbach conjecture, states that the coefficients of univalent functions $f(z) = z + \sum\limits_2^{\infty} a_n z^n$ on the unit disk satisfy $|a_n^2 - a_{2n-1}| \le (n-1)^2$ for all $n…
We give a description of the Milnor fiber and the monodromy of a singularity of the form f+zg = 0 where f and g define plane curves and have no common components. The description depends only on the topological type of the two plane curve…
Recently the author presented a new approach to solving the coefficient problems for various classes of holomorphic functions $f(z) = \sum\limits_0^\infty c_n z^n$, not necessarily univalent. This approach is based on lifting the given…
