For a semistable degeneration of surfaces without a triple point, we show that two models of degeneration of Hilbert scheme of points of the family, Gulbrandsen-Halle-Hulek degeneration given in [GHH] and the one given by the author in [N],…
A canonically-embedded curve of genus $g$ is a pure 1-dimensional, non-degenerate subscheme $C$ of ${\bf P}^{g-1}$ over an algebraically closed field $k$, for which ${\cal O}_C(1) \cong \omega_C$, (the dualizing sheaf)$ and $h^0(C, {\cal…
We use intersection theory, degeneration techniques and jet schemes to study log canonical thresholds. Our first result gives a lower bound for the log canonical threshold of a pair in terms of the log canonical threshold of the image by a…
We prove the following theorem characterizing Du Bois singularities. Suppose that $Y$ is smooth and that $X$ is a reduced closed subscheme. Let $\pi : \tld Y \to Y$ be a log resolution of $X$ in $Y$ that is an isomorphism outside of $X$. If…
We study the geometry of standard graded Hilbert schemes of polynomial rings and exterior algebras. Our investigation is motivated by a famous theorem of Reeves and Stillman for the Grothendieck Hilbert scheme, which states that the…
The present paper provides several results on automorphisms of hyperk\"ahler (or irreducible holomorphic symplectic) manifolds. In particular it focuses on the symplectic case and contains a classification of prime order symplectic…
In this paper we study the tangent space to the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^3$, motivated by Haiman's work on $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^2$ and by a long-standing conjecture of Brian\c{c}on and Iarrobino on the most singular…
We construct isospectral pairs of Riemannian metrics on S^5 and on B^6, thus lowering by three the dimension of spheres and balls on which such metrics have been constructed previously (S^{n\ge 8} and B^{n\ge 9}). We also construct…
We study the algebraic exceptional set for surfaces (S,B) of log general type, when B has at least three irreducible components; we prove that in most cases it is finite or empty.
We study first order deformations of the tangent sheaf of resolutions of Calabi-Yau threefolds that are of the form $\mathbb{C}^3/Z_r$, focusing on the cases where the orbifold has an isolated singularity. We prove a lower bound on the…
We study the component H_n of the Hilbert scheme whose general point parameterizes a pair of codimension two linear subspaces in P^n for n > 2. We show that H_n is smooth and isomorphic to the blow-up of the symmetric square of G(n-2,n)…
We prove that for $n \leq 4$ and $p > 5$, quasi--Gorenstein $F$--pure and $\mathbb{Q}_p$--rational $n$--fold singularities are canonical. This is analogous to the usual fact that rational Gorenstein singularities are canonical. The proof is…
We prove the existence of resolution of singularities for arbitrary (not necessarily reduced or irreducible) excellent two-dimensional schemes, via permissible blow-ups. The resolution is canonical, and functorial with respect to…
Suppose that a Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface S of Picard rank one admits a rational Lagrangian fibration. We show that if the degree of the surface is sufficiently large compared to the number of points, then the Hilbert scheme…
This paper studies hypersurface exceptional singularities in $\mathbb C^n$ defined by non-degenerate function. For each canonical hypersurface singularity, there exists a weighted homogeneous singularity such that the former is exceptional…
We give some explicit upper bounds on the effective birationality of the canonical or anti-canonical system for a singular surface. In particular, we show that for any surface $X$ with $\epsilon$-lc singularity and the canonical divisor…
The Hilbert scheme of projective 3-folds of codimension 3 or more that are linear scrolls over the projective plane or over a smooth quadric surface or that are quadric or cubic fibrations over the projective line is studied. All known such…
In this paper, we check that Fano schemes of lines on certain rational cubic fourfolds are birational to Hilbert schemes of two points on K3 surfaces.
A good canonical projection of a surface $S$ of general type is a morphism to the 3-dimensional projective space P^3 given by 4 sections of the canonical line bundle. To such a projection one associates the direct image sheaf F of the…
In this paper, we shall discuss Hilbert property of ${\rm Hilb}^{G}(\mathbb{C}^{3})$, Fujiki-Oka resolutions and iterated Fujiki-Oka resolutions for three dimensional canonical cyclic quotient singularities by using the classification shown…
