For $r\geq 3$ and $g= \frac{r(r+1)}{2}$, we study the Prym-Brill-Noether variety $V^r(C,\eta)$ associated to Prym curves $[C,\eta]$. The locus $\mathcal{R}_g^r$ in $\mathcal{R}_g$ parametrizing Prym curves $(C, \eta)$ with nonempty…

A Steiner bundle over the projective 3-space is the kernel in a trivial bundle of a morphism defined by a matrix of linear forms. We produce various Steiner bundles E of rank n such that E(1) has n-1 sections, the dependency locus of which…

In this paper we provide some local and global splitting results on complete Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. We achieve the splitting through the analysis of some pointwise inequalities of Modica type which hold true…

We consider coverings of real algebraic curves to real rational algebraic curves. We show the existence of such coverings having prescribed topological degree on the real locus. From those existence results we prove some results on…

Consider an elliptic curve $E$ over a number field $K$. Suppose that $E$ has supersingular reduction at some prime $\mathfrak{p}$ of $K$ lying above the rational prime $p$. We completely classify the valuations of the $p^n$-torsion points…

We prove the irreducibility of the moduli space of rank 2 semistable torsion free sheaves (with a generic polarization and any value of c_2) on a K3 or a del Pezzo surface. In the case of a K3 surface, we need to prove a result on the…

In order to prove new existence results in Brill-Noether theory for rank-2 vector bundles with fixed special determinant, we develop foundational definitions and results for limit linear series of higher-rank vector bundles. These include…

Fix a polarised Calabi-Yau threefold $(X,H)$. We reduce a version of the Bayer-Macr\`i-Toda conjecture for $(X,H)$, which ensures the existence of Bridgeland stability conditions on $X$, to verifying a Brill-Noether-type inequality for…

In this paper we compute the gonality and the dimension of the Brill-Noether loci $W^1_d(C)$ for curves in a non primitive linear system of a simple abelian surface, adapting vector bundles techniques \`a la Lazarsfeld originally introduced…

Lazarsfeld proved Brill--Noether generality of any smooth curve in the linear system $|H|$ where $(X,H)$ is a polarized K3 surface with $\mathrm{Pic}(X) = \mathbb{Z}\cdot H$. Mukai introduced the notion of Brill--Noether generality for…

On an arbitrary compact Riemann surface, necessary and sufficient conditions are found for the existence of semistable vector bundles with slope between zero and one and a prescribed number of linearly independent holomorphic sections.…

We show that Brill--Noether loci in Hilbert scheme of points on a smooth connected surface $S$ are non-empty whenever their expected dimension is positive, and that they are irreducible and have expected dimensions. More precisely, we…

In this paper we study Brill-Noether loci for rank-two vector bundles and describe the general member of some components as suitable extensions of line bundles.

In this (mostly) survey article, we give a synopsis of a number of results relating to Brill--Noether theory on curves and metric graphs, together with some speculations about the behavior of one-dimensional linear series on a class of…

The interplay between algebro-geometric and combinatorial Brill-Noether theory is studied. The Brill-Noether variety of a graph shown to be non-empty if the Brill-Noether number is non-negative, as a consequence of the analogous fact for…

In this paper, we consider a fully nonlinear problem on manifolds with boundaries of negative admissible curvatures. As a consequence, we conclude the existence of certain types of metrics on the general differential manifolds with…

We carry out a detailed intersection theoretic analysis of the Deligne-Mumford compactification of the divisor on M_{10} consisting of curves sitting on K3 surfaces. This divisor is not of classical Brill-Noether type, and is known to give…

We briefly survey recent results related to linear series on curves that are general in various moduli spaces, highlighting the interplay between algebraic geometry on a general curve and the combinatorics of its degenerations.…

We perform an intersection theoretic study of the rational map between two different moduli spaces of stable curves which associates to a curve its corresponding Brill-Noether locus (in the case this locus has virtual dimension 1). We then…

We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden system in a half-space has no positive classical solution that is bounded on finite strips. Such a nonexistence result was previously available only for bounded solutions or under a…
