Let X be a compact Kahler holomorphic-symplectic manifold, which is deformation equivalent to the Hilbert scheme of length n subschemes of a K3 surface. Let L be a nef line-bundle on X, such that the 2n-th power of c_1(L) vanishes and…
These are notes of lectures given at the school `Birational Geometry of Hypersurfaces' in Gargnano in March 2018. The main goal was to discuss the Hodge structures that come naturally associated with a cubic fourfold. The emphasis is on the…
This paper determines the RO(G)-graded Eilenberg-MacLane cohomology of the real, infinite, equivariant Grassmannians in the case G=Z/2. Possible connections with motivic characteristic classes for quadratic bundles are briefly discussed.
We consider Fano sevenfolds $Y$ obtained by intersecting the Grassmannian $\hbox{Gr}(3,6)$ with a codimension 2 linear subspace (with respect to the Pl\"ucker embedding). We prove that the motive of $Y$ is Kimura finite-dimensional. We also…
Mukai proved that most prime Fano fourfolds of degree 10 and index 2 are contained in a Grassmannian G(2,5). They are all unirational and some are rational, as remarked by Roth in 1949. We show that their middle cohomology is of K3 type and…
Let $\Gamma \,=\, \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[5]{n})$ be a pure quintic field, where $n$ is a positive integer $5^{th}$ power-free, $k_0\,=\,\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_5)$ be the cyclotomic field containing a primitive $5^{th}$ root of unity $\zeta_5$, and…
We prove that the group of normalized cohomological invariants of degree 3 modulo the subgroup of semidecomposable invariants of a semisimple split linear algebraic group G is isomorphic to the torsion part of the Chow group of codimension…
In this paper, combining Kirillov's method of orbits with Connes' method in Differential Geometry, we study the so-called MD(5,3C)-foliations, i.e. the orbit foliations of the co-adjoint action of MD(5,3C)-groups. First, we classify…
We show that up to automorphisms of $\mathbb P^2_{\mathbb C}$ there are $14$ homogeneous convex foliations of degree $5$ on $\mathbb P^2_{\mathbb C}.$ We establish some properties of the Fermat foliation $\mathcal F_{0}^{d}$ of degree…
We present a construction in Matrix theory of longitudinal 5-branes whose geometry in transverse space corresponds to a 4-sphere. We describe these branes through an explicit construction in terms of N*N matrices for a particular infinite…
For each g > 2 and h > 1, we explicitly construct (1) fiber sum indecomposable relatively minimal genus g Lefschetz fibrations over genus h surfaces whose monodromies lie in the Torelli group, (2) fiber sum indecomposable genus g surface…
The paper is a continuation of the works [17] of Vu and Shum, [18] and [19] of Vu and Hoa. In [17], Vu and Shum classified all the MD5-algebras having commutative derived ideals. In [18], Vu and Hoa considered foliations formed by the…
O'Grady constructed a 6-dimensional irreducible holomorphic symplectic variety by taking a crepant resolution of some moduli space of stable sheaves on an abelian surface. In this paper, we naturally extend O'Grady's construction to fields…
We give several examples of pairs of non-isomorphic cubic fourfolds whose Fano varieties of lines are birationally equivalent (and in one example isomorphic). Two of our examples, which are special families of conjecturally irrational…
In this note, we describe a connection between the enumerative geometry of curves in K3 surfaces and the chiral ring of an auxiliary superconformal field theory. We consider the invariants calculated by Yau--Zaslow (capturing the Euler…
We provide a unified geometric realization of the classical deformation complexes. We construct GL-equivariant bilinear incidence varieties whose diagonal slices recover the varieties of associative, commutative, Leibniz, and Lie algebra…
In this paper, we deal with the linear Weingarten factorable surfaces in the isotropic 3-space I^{3} satisfying the relation aK+bH=c, where K is the relative curvature and H the isotropic mean curvature, a,b,cR. We obtain a complete…
The paper discusses four approaches to the biextension of Chow groups and their equivalences. These are the following: an explicit construction given by S.Bloch, a construction in terms of the Poincare biextension of dual intermediate…
We study the geometry of M5-branes wrapping a 2-cycle which is Special Lagrangian with respect to a specific complex structure in a Calabi-Yau two-fold. Using methods recently applied to the three-fold case, we are again able find a…
We describe the standard and Leray filtrations on the cohomology groups with compact supports of a quasi projective variety with coefficients in a constructible complex using flags of hyperplane sections on a partial compactification of a…
