We use linear Koszul duality, a geometric version of the standard duality between modules over symmetric and exterior algebras studied in previous papers of the authors to give a geometric realization of the Iwahori-Matsumoto involution of…

Let S be a general complex Nikulin surface of genus 8, a geometric construction of S is given as follows. Consider a smooth 3-fold linear section T of the Grassmannian G(1,4) and the Hilbert scheme of rational normal sextic curves of T. In…

We exhibit several families of elliptic curves with torsion group isomorphic to $ \Z/6\Z$ and generic rank at least $3$. Families of this kind have been constructed previously by several authors: Lecacheux, Kihara, Eroshkin and Woo. We…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be smooth projective varieties over $\C$. We say that $X$ and $Y$ are \emph{D-equivalent} (or, $X$ is a \emph{Fourier--Mukai partner} of $Y$) if their derived categories of bounded complexes of coherent sheaves are…

We study the moduli spaces which classify smooth surfaces along with a complex line bundle. There are homological stability and Madsen--Weiss type results for these spaces (mostly due to Cohen and Madsen), and we discuss the cohomological…

An analogue of the Mukai map $m_g: \mathcal P_g \to \mathcal M_g$ is studied for the moduli $\mathcal R_{g, \ell}$ of genus $g$ curves $C$ with a level $\ell$ structure. Let $\mathcal P^{\perp}_{g, \ell}$ be the moduli space of $4$-tuples…

We prove that the Hilbert square $S^{[2]}$ of a very general primitively polarized K3 surface S of degree $d(n) = 2(4n^2 + 8n + 5)$, $n \geq 1$ is birational to a double Eisenbud-Popescu-Walter sextic. Our result implies a positive answers,…

Using Galois-Stiefel-Whitney classes of theta characteristics we show that over a totally real base field the moduli stack of smooth genus $g$ curves and the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension $g$ have…

We study wall-crossing for the Beauville-Mukai system of rank three on a general genus two K3 surface. We show that such a system is related to the Hilbert scheme of ten points on the surface by a sequence of flops, whose exceptional loci…

We first prove an isomorphism between the moduli space of smooth cubic threefolds and the moduli space of hyperkaehler fourfolds of K3^{[2]}-type with a non-symplectic automorphism of order three, whose invariant lattice has rank one and is…

We construct positive-genus analogues of Welschinger's invariants for many real symplectic manifolds, including the odd-dimensional projective spaces and the renowned quintic threefold. In some cases, our invariants provide lower bounds for…

We study the geometry of non-homogeneous horospherical varieties. These have been classified by Pasquier and include the well-known odd symplectic Grassmannians. We focus our study on quantum cohomology, with a view towards Dubrovin's…

We study the problem of classifying the lines of the projective $3$-space $PG(3,q)$ over a finite field $GF(q)$ into orbits of the group $G=PGL(2,q)$ of linear symmetries of the twisted cubic $C$. A generic line neither intersects $C$ nor…

We prove G\"ortz's combinatorial conjecture \cite{Go01} on dual shellability of admissible sets in Iwahori-Weyl groups, proving that the augmented admissible set $\widehat{\mathrm{Adm}}(\mu)$ is dual shellable for any dominant coweight…

We develop local cohomology techniques to study the finite slope part of the coherent cohomology of Shimura varieties. The local cohomology groups we consider are a generalization of overconvergent modular forms, and they are defined by…

In the first part of this work, we have considered a moduli space $B_g$ classifying principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension $g$ endowed with a symplectic-Hodge basis, and we have constructed the higher Ramanujan vector fields…

In this paper we classify curves of genus two over a perfect field k of characteristic two. We find rational models of curves with a given arithmetic structure for the ramification divisor and we give necessary and sufficient conditions for…

We explain a strategy for distinguishing Brill-Noether loci in the moduli space of curves by studying the lifting of linear systems on curves in polarized K3 surfaces, which motivates a conjecture identifying the maximal Brill-Noether loci…

The moduli space of (1,3)-polarized abelian surfaces with full level-2 structure is birational to a double cover of the Barth-Nieto quintic. Barth and Nieto have shown that these varieties have Calabi-Yau models Z and Y, respectively. In…
