This thesis intends to make a contribution to the theories of algebraic cycles and moduli spaces over the real numbers. In the study of the subvarieties of a projective algebraic variety, smooth over the field of real numbers, the cycle…
It is conjectured that there exist finitely many isomorphism classes of simple endomorphism algebras of abelian varieties of GL_2-type over \Q of bounded dimension. We explore this conjecture when particularized to quaternion endomorphism…
A conjecture of Colliot-Th\'{e}l\`{e}ne predicts that for a smooth projective variety $X$ over a finite extension $k$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ the kernel of the Albanese map $\text{CH}_0(X)^{\text{deg}=0}\to Alb_X(k)$ is the direct sum of a…
We prove that the first integral cohomology of pure mapping class groups of infinite type genus one surfaces is trivial. For genus zero surfaces we prove that not every homomorphism to $\mathbb{Z}$ factors through a sphere with finitely…
We compute an explicit closed formula for the Hilbert polynomial of the Jacobian algebra $M(f)$ of a reduced surface $X:f=0$ in $\mathbb P^3$ in terms of the graded Betti numbers of the algebra $M(f)$. When $X$ has only isolated…
In this paper, motivated by a problem posed by Barry Mazur, we show that for smooth projective varieties over the rationals, the odd cohomology groups of degree less than or equal to the dimension can be modeled by the cohomology of an…
We construct a connected, irreducible component of the moduli space of minimal surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=2$ and $K^2=5$, which contains both examples given by Chen-Hacon and the first author. This component is generically smooth…
The purpose of this article is to give an interpretation of real projective structures and associated cohomology classes in terms of connections, sections, etc. satisfying elliptic partial differential equations in the spirit of Hodge…
Polyhedral surfaces are fundamental objects in architectural geometry and industrial design. Whereas closeness of a given mesh to a smooth reference surface and its suitability for numerical simulations were already studied extensively, the…
We classify smooth surfaces whose higher cohomologies of i-forms for all i vanish. We show that if such a surface is not affine, then it has essentially two possibilities.
We use the main theorem of Boxer-Calegari-Gee-Pilloni (arXiv:1812.09269) to give explicit examples of modular abelian surfaces $A$ over $\mathbf{Q}$ without extra endomorhpisms such that $A$ has good reduction outside the primes 2, 3, 5,…
We show that any smooth surface germ in the moduli of abelian surfaces arises from a Lagrangian fibration of abelian surfaces. By Donagi-Markman's cubic condition, the key issue of the proof is to find a suitable affine structure with a…
One of the most powerful ideas in the study and classification of algebraic varieties is the notion of a model: that is, to single out an object, in the appropriate isomorphism class, with nice properties. This survey aims to define and…
A projective algebraic surface which is homeomorphic to a ruled surface over a curve of genus $g\ge 1$ is itself a ruled surface over a curve of genus $g$. In this note, we prove the analogous result for projective algebraic manifolds of…
The aim of this article is to investigate the cohomology (l-adic as well as Betti) of schemes, and more generally of certain algebraic stacks, that are proper and smooth over the integers and have the property that there exists a polynomial…
In this paper we study Seidel's mirror map for abelian and Kummer surfaces. We find that mirror symmetry leads in a very natural way to the classical parametrization of Kummer surfaces in $\P^3$. Moreover, we describe a family of embeddings…
We introduce a new class of finite dimensional gentle algebras, the surface algebras, which are constructed from an unpunctured Riemann surface with boundary and marked points by introducing cuts in internal triangles of an arbitrary…
We construct new examples of immersed minimal surfaces with catenoid ends and finite total curvature, of both genus zero and higher genus. In the genus zero case, we classify all such surfaces with at most $2n+1$ ends, and with symmetry…
We prove that a finite group acting by birational automorphisms of a non-trivial Severi-Brauer surface over a field of characteristic zero contains a normal abelian subgroup of index at most 3. Also, we find an explicit bound for orders of…
We present a method for deciding when a regular abelian cover of a finite CW-complex has finite Betti numbers. To start with, we describe a natural parameter space for all regular covers of a finite CW-complex X, with group of deck…
