We study the relation between semipositivity, nefness, and bigness of line bundles on compact K\"ahler manifolds. Every nef and big line bundle on a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ is positive when ${\rm dim}\,X = 1$. Kim constructed an…

In this paper we consider ideal sheaves associated to the singular loci of a divisor in a linear system $|L|$ of an ample line bundle on a complex abelian variety. We prove an effective result on their (continuous) global generation, after…

For an abelian variety $A$ over an algebraically closed non-archimedean field of residue characteristic $p$, we show that there exists a perfectoid space which is the tilde-limit of $\varprojlim_{[p]}A$. Our proof also works for the larger…

Affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties are closely related to the special fibre of Newton strata in the reduction of Shimura varieties or of moduli spaces of $G$-shtukas. In almost all cases, they are not quasi-compact. In this note we prove…

We study the dimension of loci of special line bundles on stable curves and for a fixed semistable multidegree. In case of total degree $d = g - 1$, we characterize when the effective locus gives a Theta divisor. In case of degree $g - 2$…

We study affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties in the affine flag manifold of an algebraic group, and in particular the question, which affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties are non-empty. Under mild assumptions on the group, we provide a complete…

The universal centralizer of a semisimple algebraic group is the family of centralizers of regular elements, parametrized by their conjugacy classes. When the group is of adjoint type, we construct a smooth, log-symplectic fiberwise…

We construct a compactification of the moduli spaces of abelian differentials on Riemann surfaces with prescribed zeroes and poles. This compactification, called the moduli space of multi-scale differentials, is a complex orbifold with…

Using the wonderful compactification of a semisimple adjoint affine algebraic group G defined over an algebraically closed field k of arbitrary characteristic, we construct a natural compactification Y of the G-character variety of any…

C.~P\'{e}pin recently constructed a semi-factorial compactification of the N\'{e}ron model of an abelian variety using the flattening technique of Raynaud--Gruson. Here we prove that an explicit semi-factorial compactification is a certain…

I give a necessary and sufficient condition for a nef and big line bundle in positive characteristic to be semi-ample, and then give two applications: I show that the relative dualizing sheaf of the universal curve is semi-ample, in…

Let $(M,g)$ be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold with a smooth conformal compactification. We establish a general correspondence between semilinear elliptic equations of scalar curvature type on $\del M$ and Weingarten foliations in…

We define a certain compactifiction of the general linear group and give a modular description for its points with values in arbitrary schemes. This is a first step in the construction of a higher rank generalization of Gieseker's…

Using the theory of Higgs bundles and their stabitlity properties associated to fibered surfaces and the Viehweg-Zuo characterization of Shimura curves in the moduli space of abelian varieties in terms of Higgs bundles, we prove that there…

We determine the cone of nef divisors on the Igusa and Voronoi compactifications of the moduli space of principally polarised abelian 4-folds. We also show that the canonical bundle on the Igusa compactification of A_4(n) is ample for n at…

We study the complex-analytic geometry of semi-positive holomorphic line bundles on compact K\"ahler manifolds. In one of our main results, for a $\mathbb{Q}$-effective line bundle satisfying a natural torsion-type assumption, we show the…

In this short note we will show that every homogeneous strictly nef vector bundle on a complex flag variety is ample. Following this, we consider whether ampleness of a bundle on an abelian variety can be tested on curves.

We consider a compact manifold $(M,\mathfrak{F})$ with a foliation $\mathfrak{F}$, and a smooth affine connection $\nabla$ on the tangent bundle of the foliation $T\mathfrak{F}$. We introduce and study a foliated completeness problem.…

We obtain, by a direct computation, explicit descriptions of all principally polarized semi-abelic varieties of torus rank up to 3. We describe the geometry of their symmetric theta divisors and obtain explicit formulas for the involution…

We study the locus of intermediate Jacobians of cubic threefolds within the moduli space of complex principally polarized abelian fivefolds, and its generalization to arbitrary genus - the locus of abelian varieties with a singular odd…
