A classical example of Mumford gives a generically non-reduced component of the Hilbert scheme of smooth curves in the projective 3-space such that a general element of the component is contained in a smooth cubic hypersurface in the…
We prove that an indecomposable principally polarized abelian variety $X$ is the Jacobain of a curve if and only if there exist vectors $U\neq 0,V$ such that the roots $x_i(y)$ of the theta-functional equation $\theta(Ux+Vy+Z)=0$ satisfy…
The object of this paper is to study GL(2,R) orbit closures in hyperelliptic components of strata of abelian differentials. The main result is that all higher rank affine invariant submanifolds in hyperelliptic components are branched…
We prove uniqueness of a decomposition of $1$ into indecomposable Hermitian idempotents in an order of a finite-dimensional $\mathbb{Q}$-algebra with positive involution, by generalising a result of Eichler on unique decomposition of…
We survey old and new results about the cohomology of the moduli space $A_g$ of principally polarized abelian varieties of genus $g$ and its compactifications. The main emphasis lies on the computation of the cohomology for small genus and…
We consider a nodal curve $C$ in the complex projective plane whose irreducible components $C_i$ are smooth. A minimal set of generators $G$ for the first and second syzygy modules of the Jacobian ideal of $C$ are described, using recent…
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…
For a given graph whose edges are labeled with general real numbers, we consider the set of functions from the vertex set into the Euclidean plane such that the distance between the images of neighbouring vertices is equal to the…
Motivated by classical Alexander invariants of affine hypersurface complements, we endow certain finite dimensional quotients of the homology of abelian covers of complex algebraic varieties with a canonical and functorial mixed Hodge…
We classify finite-dimensional complex Hopf algebras $A$ which are pointed, that is, all of whose irreducible comodules are one-dimensional, and whose group of group-like elements $G(A)$ is abelian such that all prime divisors of the order…
We denote by $\mathcal{H}_{d,g,r}$ the Hilbert scheme of smooth curves, which is the union of components whose general point corresponds to a smooth, irreducible and non-degenerate curve of degree $d$ and genus $g$ in $\mathbb{P}^r.$ In…
The Prym variety for a branched double covering of a nonsingular projective curve is defined as a polarized abelian variety. We prove that any double covering of an elliptic curve which has more than $4$ branch points is recovered from its…
We prove that Prym varieties of algebraic curves with two smooth fixed points of involution are exactly the indecomposable principally polarized abelian varieties whose theta-functions provide explicit formulae for integrable 2D…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be written as $ f^{*}(\mathcal{G})$, where $\mathcal{G}$ is a $1$-dimensional foliation on $ {\mathbb P^{n-1}}$ and $f:{\mathbb P^n}--->{\mathbb P^{n-1}}$ a non-linear generic rational map. We use local stability results…
We establish a local model for the moduli space of holomorphic symplectic structures with logarithmic poles, near the locus of structures whose polar divisor is normal crossings. In contrast to the case without poles, the moduli space is…
In this paper, we study the Severi varieties parametrizing integral curves of geometric genus one on polarized toric surfaces in characteristic zero and describe their irreducible components. We show that the irreducible components are in…
We describe a method to determine all the isomorphism classes of principal polarizations of the modular abelian surfaces $A_f$ with quaternionic multiplication attached to a normalized newform $f$ without complex multiplication. We include…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$, $\bar{K}$ its algebraic closure. Let $n \ge 3$ be an odd integer. Let $f(x)$ and $h(x)$ be degree $n$ polynomials with coefficients in $K$ and without repeated roots. Let us consider…
We prove that affine invariant manifolds in strata of flat surfaces are algebraic varieties. The result is deduced from a generalization of a theorem of M\"oller. Namely, we prove that the image of a certain twisted Abel-Jacobi map lands in…
The primal cohomology $\mathbb{K}_\mathbb{Q}$ of the theta divisor $\Theta$ of a principally polarized abelian fivefold (ppav) is the direct sum of its invariant and anti-invariant parts $\mathbb{K}_\mathbb{Q}^{+1}$, resp.…
