Maximal orders of rank 4 on the projective plane, ramified on a smooth plane quartic are examples of exotic del Pezzo orders. We compute the possible Chern classes for line bundles on such orders and show the moduli space of line bundles…

We construct and study a natural homeomorphism between the moduli space of polynomial cubic differentials of degree d on the complex plane and the space of projective equivalence classes of oriented convex polygons with d+3 vertices. This…

We study geometric structures arising from Hermitian forms on linear spaces over real algebras beyond the division ones. Our focus is on the dual numbers, the split-complex numbers, and the split-quaternions. The corresponding geometric…

We compute all the top intersection numbers of divisors on the total space of the Poincare bundle restricted to the product of a curve and the abelian variety. We use these computations to find the class of the universal theta divisor and…

In this paper, we present an algorithm to compute a basis of the space of algebraic modular forms on the maximal order of the definite quaternion algebra of discriminant $2$, and provide a database of such bases. One of our motivations is…

In this article, we study the topology and bifurcations of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_3$ of cubic Newton maps. It's a subspace of the moduli space of cubic rational maps, carrying the Riemann orbifold structure $(\mathbb{\widehat{C}},…

We compute the dimension of certain components of the family of smooth determinantal degree $d$ surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$, and show that each of them is the closure of a component of the Noether-Lefschetz locus $NL(d)$. Our computations…

Let $X$ be a compact quotient of the product of the real Heisenberg group $H_{4m+1}$ of dimension $4m+1$ and the 3-dimensional real Euclidean space $\bR^3$. A left invariant hypercomplex structure on $H_{4m+1}\times \bR^3$ descends onto the…

It is a classical fact going back to F. Klein that an elliptic curve $E$ over $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$ is defined by a homogeneous polynomial in $3$ variables with coefficients in $\mathbb{Q}(j_{E})$, where $j_{E}$ is the $j$-invariant of $E$,…

We show that the moduli space $\overline{M}_X(v)$ of Gieseker stable sheaves on a smooth cubic threefold $X$ with Chern character $v = (3,-H,-H^2/2,H^3/6)$ is smooth and of dimension four. Moreover, the Abel-Jacobi map to the intermediate…

We study various naturally defined subvarieties of the moduli space ${\mathcal A}_g$ of complex principally polarized abelian varieties (ppav) in a neighborhood of the locus of products of $g$ elliptic curves. In this neighborhood, we…

Naruki gave an explicit construction of the moduli space of marked cubic surfaces, starting from a toric variety and proceeding with blow ups and contractions. Using his result, we compute the Chow groups and the Chern classes of this…

Given a smooth genus two curve $C$, the moduli space SU$_C(3)$ of rank three semi-stable vector bundles on $C$ with trivial determinant is a double cover in $\mathbb{P}^8$ branched over a sextic hypersurface, whose projective dual is the…

For any finite abelian group G, we study the moduli space of abelian $G$-covers of elliptic curves, in particular identifying the irreducible components of the moduli space. We prove that, in the totally ramified case, the moduli space has…

Using several numerical invariants, we study a partition of the space of line arrangements in the complex projective plane, given by the intersection lattice types. We offer also a new characterization of the free plane curves using the…

We study hyperplane sections of smooth polarized $K3$-surfaces that split into unions of lines. We describe the dual adjacency graphs of such sections and find sharp upper bounds on their number. In most cases (starting from degree $6$), we…

We study the algebraic hyperbolicity of the complement of very general degree $2n$ hypersurfaces in P^n. We prove the Algebraic Green-Griffiths-Lang Conjecture for these complements, and in the case of the complement of a quartic plane…

A plane quartic curve is called L\"uroth if it contains the ten vertices of a complete pentalateral. White and Miller constructed in 1909 a covariant quartic 4-fold, associated to any plane quartic. We review their construction and we show…

We give a formula to compute the dimension of the generic component of the moduli space of an irreducible germ of curve in the complex plane.
