In this series of three papers we start to investigate the rational Chow ring of the stack consisting of nodal curves of genus 0, in particular we determine completely the rational Chow ring of the substack consisting of curves with at most…

We determine the cycle classes of effective divisors in the compactified Hurwitz spaces of curves of genus g with a linear system of degree d that extend the Maroni divisors on the open Hurwitz space. Our approach uses Chern classes…

We prove a refinement of Pixton's formula for the double ramification cycle with target variety which takes into account the correlator of a rubber map previously introduced by the authors. To do so, we need to: reinterpret the correlator…

The aim of this paper is to present an algebro-geometric approach to the study of the geometry of the moduli space of stable bundles on a smooth projective curve defined over an algebraically closed field $k$, of arbitrary characteristic.…

In this paper we study properties of the Chow ring of rational homogeneous varieties of classical type, more concretely, effective zero divisors of low codimension, and a related invariant called effective good divisibility. This…

To a compact tropical variety of arbitrary dimension, we associate a collection of intermediate Jacobians defined in terms of tropical homology and tropical monodromy. We then develop an Abel-Jacobi theory in the tropical setting by…

Motivated by the computation of the BPS-invariants on a local Calabi-Yau threefold suggested by S. Katz, we compute the Chow ring and the cohomology ring of the moduli space of stable sheaves of Hilbert polynomial $4m+1$ on the projective…

To every reduced (projective) curve X with planar singularities one can associate many fine compactified Jacobians, depending on the choice of a polarization on X, which are birational (possibly non-isomorphic) Calabi-Yau projective…

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…

We prove by explicit example that the compactified jacobian can be nonreduced. The example is a rational space curve of arithmetic genus 4. This answers a question posed by Cyril D'Souza in 1979.

After recalling several constructions of the moduli space of curves of genus zero by different people we give our alternative construction of the moduli space. This gives a simple description of the intersection ring of this space. We give…

We prove that two cusps of the same dimension in the Baily-Borel compactification of some classical series of modular varieties are linearly dependent in the rational Chow group of the compactification. This gives a higher dimensional…

We consider superstring compactifications where both the classical description, in terms of a Calabi-Yau manifold, and also the quantum theory is known in terms of a Landau-Ginzburg orbifold model. In particular, we study (smooth)…

Let M be the moduli scheme of canonically polarized manifolds with Hilbert polynomial h. We construct for a given finite set I of natural numbers m>1 with h(m)>0 a projective compactification M' of the reduced scheme underlying M such that…

We introduce and compute the class of a number of effective divisors on the moduli space of stable maps $\bar M_{0,0}(P^{r},d)$, which, for small d, provide a good understanding of the extremal rays and the stable base locus decomposition…

We connect two notions of tautological ring: one for the moduli space of curves (after Mumford, Faber, etc.), and the other for the Jacobian of a curve (after Beauville, Polishchuk, etc.). The motivic Lefschetz decomposition on the Jacobian…

Borisov-Joyce constructed a real virtual cycle on compact moduli spaces of stable sheaves on Calabi-Yau 4-folds, using derived differential geometry. We construct an algebraic virtual cycle. A key step is a localisation of Edidin-Graham's…

This thesis intends to make a contribution to the theories of algebraic cycles and moduli spaces over the real numbers. In the study of the subvarieties of a projective algebraic variety, smooth over the field of real numbers, the cycle…

We construct new compactifications with good properties of moduli spaces of maps from nonsingular marked curves to a large class of GIT quotients. This generalizes from a unified perspective many particular examples considered earlier in…
