We prove that if two very general cubic fourfolds are L-equivalent then they are isomorphic, and we observe that there exist special cubic fourfolds which are L-equivalent but not isomorphic. When the cubic fourfolds are very general in…

We study relative Fourier-Mukai transforms on genus one fibrations with section, allowing explicitly the total space of the fibration to be singular and non-projective. Grothendieck duality is used to prove a skew-commutativity relation…

We prove that the generic part of the mod l cohomology of Shimura varieties associated to quasi-split unitary groups of even dimension is concentrated above the middle degree, extending our previous work to a non-compact case. The result…

Let S be a K3 surface and assume for simplicity that it does not contain any (-2)-curve. Using coherent systems, we express every non-simple Lazarsfeld-Mukai bundle on S as an extension of two sheaves of some special type, that we refer to…

We discuss birational properties of Mukai varieties, i.e., of higher-dimensional analogues of prime Fano threefolds of genus $g \in \{7,8,9,10\}$ over an arbitrary field $\mathsf{k}$ of zero characteristic. In the case of dimension $n \ge…

We give a classification of finite groups of symplectic birational automorphisms on a manifold of K3^[3]-type with stable and stably saturated cohomological action. We describe the group of polarized automorphisms of a smooth double…

We show that Gushel-Mukai fivefolds admit a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. As a consequence, a certain tautological subring of the Chow ring of powers of these varieties injects into cohomology.

We consider a general curve of fixed gonality k and genus g. We propose an estimate for the dimension of the variety $W^r_d(C)$ of special linear series on C, by solving an analogous problem in tropical geometry. Using work of Coppens and…

We prove that any proper Fourier-Mukai partner of an abelian variety is again an abelian variety, by analyzing the Matsui spectrum of the derived category. This result was previously obtained by Huybrechts and Nieper-Wisskirchen in the case…

In this monograph, we extend S. Schwede's exact sequence interpretation of the Gerstenhaber bracket in Hochschild cohomology to certain exact and monoidal categories. Therefore we establish an explicit description of an isomorphism by A.…

We study the set of isomorphism classes of principal polarizations on abelian varieties of GL2-type. As applications of our results, we construct examples of curves C, C'/\Q of genus two which are nonisomorphic over \bar \Q and share…

We construct new examples of rational Gushel-Mukai fourfolds, giving more evidence for the analog of the Kuznetsov Conjecture for cubic fourfolds: a Gushel--Mukai fourfold is rational if and only if it admits an associated K3 surface.

From the point of view of uniform bounds for the birationality of pluricanonical maps, irregular varieties of general type and maximal Albanese dimension behave similarly to curves. In fact Chen-Hacon showed that, at least when their…

For a curve $C$ of genus $6$ or $8$ and a torsion bundle $\eta$ of order $\ell$ we study the vanishing of the space of global sections of the twist $E_C \otimes \eta$ of the rank two Mukai bundle $E_C$ of $C$. The bundle $E_C$ was used in a…

As shown in a previous paper, certain naturally arising cones of holomorphic vector bundle sections over the main component $\ov\M_{1,k}^0(\P,d)$ of the moduli space of stable genus-one holomorphic maps into $\P$ have a well-defined euler…

Using the techniques of Bayer--Macr\`i, we determine the walls in the movable cone of the Mukai system of rank two for a general K3 surface $S$ of genus two. We study the (essentially unique) birational map to $S^{[5]}$ and decompose it…

Up to now the only known constantly curved sextic curve, i.e., holomorphic 2-sphere of degree 6, in the complex $G(2,5)$ has been the first associated curve of the Veronese curve of degree 4, which indicates that such curves are rare to…

This note is an answer to a problem proposed by Ranestad and Iliev. We prove that the projection of general nodal linear sections of suitable dimension of the Mukai varieties $M_g$ are linear sections of $M_{g-1}$.

By a result of Mukai, the non-abelian Brill-Noether locus X = M_C(2,K:3F) of type II, defined by a stable rank 2 vector bundle F of invariant 3 over a plane quartic curve C, is a prime Fano 3-fold X of degree 16. The associate ruled surface…

We study twisted ideal sheaves of small length on an irreducible principally polarized abelian surface (T,l). Using Fourier-Mukai techniques we associate certain jumping schemes to such sheaves and completely classify such loci. We give…
