We propose a generalization of Haiman's conjecture on the diagonal coinvariant rings of real reflection groups to the context of irreducible quaternionic reflection groups (also known as symplectic reflection groups). For a reflection group…
We study abelian varieties and K3 surfaces with complex multiplication defined over number fields of fixed degree. We show that these varieties fall into finitely many isomorphism classes over an algebraic closure of the field of rational…
Let $f\colon S\to B$ a complex fibred surface with fibres of genus $g\geq 2$. Let $u_f$ be its unitary rank, i.e., the rank of the maximal unitary summand of the Hodge bundle $f_*\omega_f$. We prove many new slope inequalities involving…
The Shafarevich conjecture for K3 surfaces asserts the finiteness of isomorphism classes of K3 surfaces over a fixed number field admitting good reduction away from a fixed finite set of finite places. Andr\'{e} proved this conjecture for…
Chen, Li, Zhang, and Zhang extended the results of Shen, Yin, and Zhao on zero-cycles on moduli spaces of stable objects on $K3$ surfaces to the twisted setting. In this work, we complement this by extending results by Vial and Martin--Vial…
We investigate Beauville's conjecture on the Chow ring of irreducible symplectic varieties. For special irreducible symplectic varieties we relate it to a conjecture on the existence of rational Lagrangian fibrations, which proves…
In this paper we prove that given a pair $(X,D)$ of a threefold $X$ and a boundary divisor $D$ with mild singularities, if $(K_X+D)$ is movable, then the orbifold second Chern class $c_2$ of $(X,D)$ is pseudo-effective. This generalizes the…
In this paper we give an alternative proof that the family of matrices studied by Daeshik Choi in A proof of Crouzeix's conjecture for a class of matrices, Linear Algebra and its Applications, 438, no. 8 (2013), pp. 3247-3257, satisfy…
We prove that the family of graphs containing no cycle with exactly $k$-chords is $\chi$-bounded, for $k$ large enough or of form $\ell(\ell-2)$ with $\ell \ge 3$ an integer. This verifies (up to a finite number of values $k$) a conjecture…
Let $f:S \fr B$ be a surface fibration with fibres of genus 5. We find a linear relation between the fundamental invariants of the surface. Namely $K_f^2=\chi_f+N$ where $N$ is the number of trigonal fibres. Our proof is based on the…
Let $X$ be the product of a surface satisfying $b_2=\rho$ and of a curve over a finite field. We study a strong form of the integral Tate conjecture for $1$-cycles on $X$. We generalize and give unconditional proofs of several results of…
Given two vector bundles E and F on a variety X and a morphism from Sym^2(E) to F, we compute the cohomology class of the locus in X where the kernel of this morphism contains a quadric of prescribed rank. Our formulas have many…
A generic K3 surface of degree 2t is a general complex projective K3 surface whose Picard group is generated by the class of an ample divisor whose with respect to the intersection form is 2t. We show that if X is the Hilbert square of a…
Let X be a K3 surface with a polarization H of degree H^2=2rs and with a primitive Mukai vector (r,H,s). The moduli space of sheaves over X with the isotropic Mukai vector (r,H,s) is again a K3 surface Y. We prove that Y\cong X, if Picard…
A widely believed conjecture predicts that curves of bounded geometric genus lying on a variety of general type form a bounded family. One may even ask whether the canonical degree of a curve $C$ in a variety of general type is bounded from…
We show that, unlike del Pezzo surfaces, higher dimensional Fano manifolds do not satisfy in general boundedness properties for their ${\rm CH}_0$ group of $0$-cycles. For example, for quartic threefolds having a point of odd degree, there…
Let $X$ be a rationally connected algebraic variety, defined over a number field $k$. We find a relation between the arithmetic of rational points on $X$ and the arithmetic of zero-cycles. More precisely, we consider the following…
In this paper I consider a quintic surface in $\pp^3$, general in the sense of Noether-Lefschetz theory. The vector bundles of rank 2 on this surface which are $\mu$-stable with respect to the hyperplane section and have $c_1 = K$, the…
Determining the number of singular fibers in a family of varieties over a curve is a generalization of Shafarevich's Conjecture and has implications for the types of subvarieties that can appear in the corresponding moduli stack. We…
We prove a moving lemma for the additive and ordinary higher Chow groups of relative $0$-cycles of regular semi-local $k$-schemes essentially of finite type over an infinite perfect field. From this, we show that the cycle classes can be…
