We construct an obstruction theory for relative Hilbert schemes in the sense of Behrend-Fantechi and compute it explicitly for relative Hilbert schemes of divisors on smooth projective varieties. In the special case of curves on a surface…
Let $K$ be a local field of residue characteristic $p$. Let $C$ be a curve over $K$ whose minimal proper regular model has totally degenerate semi-stable reduction. Under certain hypotheses, we compute the prime-to-$p$ rational torsion…
For any Kahler surface which admits no nonzero holomorphic vectorfields, we consider the group of holomorphic automorphisms which induce identity on the second rational cohomology. Assuming the canonical linear system is without base points…
Let $(S,L)$ be a polarized K3 surface with $\mathrm{Pic}(S) = \mathbb{Z}[L]$ and $L\cdot L=2g-2$, let $C$ be a nonsingular curve of genus $g-1$ and let $f:C\to S$ be such that $f(C) \in \vert L \vert$. We prove that the Gaussian map…
In the case of a compact orientable pseudomanifold, a well-known theorem of M. Goresky and R. MacPherson says that the cap product with a fundamental class factorizes through the intersection homology groups. In this work, we show that this…
For every elliptic curve $E$ which has complex multiplication (CM) and is defined over a number field $F$ containing the CM field $K$, we prove that the family of $p^{\infty}$-division fields of $E$, with $p \in \mathbb{N}$ prime, becomes…
We prove that, if two germs of plane curves $(C,0)$ and $(C',0)$ with at least one singular branch are equivalent by a (real) smooth diffeomorphism, then $C$ is complex isomorphic to $C'$ or to $\overline{C'}$. A similar result was shown by…
We study automorphism groups of fibered surfaces for finite cyclic covering fibrations of an elliptic surface. We estimate the order of a finite subgroup of automorphism groups in terms of the genus of the fiber, the genus of the base…
Given a smooth curve $C/\mathbb{Q}$ with genus $\geq 2$, we know by Faltings' Theorem that $C(\mathbb{Q})$ is finite. Here we ask the reverse question: given a finite set of rational points $S\subseteq \mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{Q})$, does there…
Let $(S,\mathfrak n)$ be a regular local ring and $f$ a non-zero element of $\mathfrak n^2$. A theorem due to Kn\"orrer states that there are finitely many isomorphism classes of maximal Cohen-Macaulay $R=S/(f)$-modules if and only if the…
Let f : Y -> X be a morphism of complex projective manifolds, and let F be a subsheaf of the tangent bundle which is closed under the Lie bracket, but not necessarily a foliation. This short paper contains an elementary and very geometric…
We present elements of $H^1(C\ti C, K_2)$ for certain specific curves C.The image of the element under the boundary map arising from the localization sequence of K-theory is the graph of frobenius endomorphism of the reduction of the curve…
Let $A$ denote an affine algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$, with $\dim A=d\geq 3$. In the light of availability of cancellation theorems for stably free modules $P$ with $rank(P)=d-1$ (corank one), we try to implement the…
Let $L$ be a holomorphic line bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$. Motivated by mirror symmetry, we study the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation on $L$, which is the line bundle analogue of the special Lagrangian equation in the…
Let $G$ be a group. The BCI problem asks whether two Haar graphs of $G$ are isomorphic if and only if they are isomorphic by an element of an explicit list of isomorphisms. We first generalize this problem in a natural way and give a…
We prove the Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing theorem for a large class of divisors on surfaces in positive characteristic. By using this vanishing theorem, Reider-type theorems and extension theorems of morphisms for normal surfaces are…
Given two semistable, non potentially isotrivial elliptic surfaces over a curve $C$ defined over a field of characteristic zero or finitely generated over its prime field, we show that any compatible family of effective isometries of the…
We study normal analytic compactifications of C^2 and describe their singularities and configuration of curves at infinity, in particular improving and generalizing results of (Brenton, Math. Ann. 206:303--310, 1973). As a by product we…
We prove that a K\"ahler group which is cubulable, i.e. which acts properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a CAT(0) cubical complex, has a finite index subgroup isomorphic to a direct product of surface groups, possibly with a free…
Fix a non-negative integer g and a positive integer I dividing 2g-2. For any Henselian, discretely valued field K whose residue field is perfect and admits a degree I cyclic extension, we construct a curve C over K of genus g and index I.…
