For the affine Lie algebra $C_2^{(1)}$ we study non-principal and non-coprincipal admissible modules of integer level and their quantum Hamiltonian reduction, and show that they have $\Gamma_0(2)$-modular invariance.

Given a closed immersion between arbitrary smooth complex projective varieties, we prove that the two operations: (1) taking the moduli space of stable sheaves, and (2) taking the deformation to the normal cone, commute in a precise sense.…

We prove a general criterion for an algebraic stack to admit a good moduli space. This result may be considered as a weak analog of the Keel-Mori theorem, which guarantees the existence of a coarse moduli space for a separated…

We consider planar noncommutative theories such that the coordinates verify a space-dependent commutation relation. We show that, in some special cases, new coordinates may be introduced that have a constant commutator, and as a consequence…

We introduce a notion of deformations of quasi-Hamiltonian $G$-spaces to Hamiltonian $G$-spaces and provide several examples. In particular, we show that the double $G \times G$ of a Lie group, viewed as a quasi-Hamiltonian $G \times…

We report a possible solution to the trouble that the covariance fitting fails when the data is highly correlated and the covariance matrix has small eigenvalues. As an example, we choose the data analysis of highly correlated $B_K$ data on…

Let F be a nonarchimedean local field and let G = GL(n) = GL(n,F). Let E/F be a finite Galois extension. We investigate base change E/F at two levels: at the level of algebraic varieties, and at the level of K-theory. We put special…

We prove that the moduli space of stable maps of degree 2 to the moduli space of rank 2 stable bundles of fixed determinant O(-x) over a smooth projective curve of genus g>2 has two irre- ducible components which intersect transversely. One…

Let K be a number field, O_K the ring of integers of K and X a stable curve over O_K of genus g >= 2. In this note, we will prove a strict inequality ( (K_{X/S})^2 / [K : Q] ) > Height_{Fal}(J(X_K)), where $K_{X/S}$ is the canonically…

We provide for all prime numbers $p$ examples of smooth projective curves over a field of characteristic $p$ for which base change of the fundamental group scheme fails. This is intimately related to how $F$-trivial vector bundles, i.e.…

We completely determine the $1085$ open subgroups $H$ of $\operatorname{GL}_2(\widehat{\mathbb{Z}})$ of prime-power level that satisfy $-I \in H$ and $\operatorname{det}(H)=\widehat{\mathbb{Z}}^{\times}$ for which the corresponding modular…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group acting linearly on $\C^n$, freely outside the origin, and let $N$ be the number of conjugacy classes of $\Gamma$ minus one. A construction of Kronheimer of moduli spaces $X_\zeta$ of translation-invariant…

We define the notion of a $G$-structure for elliptic curves, where $G$ is a finite 2-generated group. When $G$ is abelian, a $G$-structure is the same as a classical congruence level structure. There is a natural action of…

Motivated by Vafa's model, we study the $tt^{*}$ geometry of a degenerate class of FQHE models with an abelian group of symmetry acting transitively on the classical vacua. Despite it is not relevant for the phenomenology of the FQHE, this…

By computing the completely bounded norm of the flip map on the Haagerup tensor product $C_0 Y_1\otimes_{C_0 X} C_0 Y_2$ associated to a pair of continuous mappings of locally compact Hausdorff spaces $Y_1\rightarrow X\leftarrow Y_2$, we…

The lattice cohomology of a reduced curve singularity is a bigraded ${\mathbb Z}[U]$-module ${\mathbb H}^*=\oplus_{q,n}{\mathbb H}^q_{2n}$, that categorifies the $\delta$-invariant and extract key geometric information from the semigroup of…

We study holomorphic Legendrian curves in the standard complex contact structure on the projectivised cotangent bundle $X=\mathbb P(T^*Z)$ of a complex manifold $Z$ of dimension at least $2$. We provide a detailed analysis of Legendrian…

This article surveys some recent work of the author on Hilbert modular fourfolds X. After some preliminaries on the cohomology and special, codimension 2 cycles Z on X of Hirzebruch-Zagier type, a proof of the Tate conjecture for X over…

We construct new examples of cubic surfaces, for which the Hasse principle fails. Thereby, we show that, over every number field, the counterexamples to the Hasse principle are Zariski dense in the moduli scheme of non-singular cubic…

We show that the stringy K\"ahler moduli space of a generic genus one curve of degree $N$, for $N\le 5$, is the $\Gamma_1(N)$ modular curve $X_1(N)$. This implies a correspondence between the cusps of the modular curves and certain large…
