Using a refinement of the differential method introduced by Oguiso and Yu, we provide effective conditions under which the automorphisms of a smooth degree $d$ hypersurface of $\mathbf{P}^{n+1}$ are given by generalized triangular matrices.…

In this note, we give a short proof of the Torelli theorem for cubic fourfolds that relies on the global Torelli theorem for irreducible holomorphic symplectic varieties proved by Verbitsky.

We investigate the logarithmic bundles associated to arrangements of hypersurfaces with a fixed degree in a smooth projective variety. We then specialize to the case when the variety is a quadric hypersurface and a multiprojective space to…

We prove an equivalence between the infinitesimal Torelli theorem for top forms on a hypersurface contained inside a Grassmannian $\mathbb G$ and the theory of adjoint volume forms presented in L. Rizzi, F. Zucconi, "Generalized adjoint…

Solving a long-standing open question in convex geometry, we will show that typical convex surfaces contain points of infinite curvature in all tangent directions. To prove this, we use an easy curvature definition imitating the idea of…

We give a simple way to extend index-theoretical statements from partial differential operators with smooth coefficients to operators with coefficients of finite Sobolev order.

We show that the Hilbert scheme which parameterises bitangent lines to a general quartic surface is a counterexample to the infinitesimal Torelli claim and is a smooth regular surface with no rational curves and very ample canonical…

A local description of the non-flat infinitesimally bendable Euclidean hypersurfaces was recently given by Dajczer and Vlachos \cite{DaVl}. From their classification, it follows that there is an abundance of infinitesimally bendable…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the geometric properties of real hypersurfaces of D'Angelo infinite type in ${\mathbb C}^n$. In order to understand the situation of flatness of these hypersurfaces, it is natural to ask whether…

We prove that, given the isomorphism class of the parabolic Deligne-Hitchin moduli space over a smooth projective curve, we can recover the isomorphism class of the curve and the parabolic points.

Let $X$ be a smooth Fano variety and $\mathcal{K}u(X)$ the Kuznetsov component. Torelli theorems for $\mathcal{K}u(X)$ says that it is uniquely determined by a polarized abelian variety attached to it. An infinitesimal Torelli theorem for…

We prove a Torelli-like theorem for higher-dimensional function fields, from the point of view of "almost-abelian" anabelian geometry.

In this article we deal with jacobian rings and identify a mixed Hodge component of a nondegenerate hypersurface in the torus with a lattice geometric quotient vector space. We introduce a period map, study its differential and compute the…

Introducing the deformation theory of holomorphic Cartan geometries, we compute infinitesimal automorphisms and infinitesimal deformations. We also prove the existence of a semi-universal deformation of a holomorphic Cartan geometry.

Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ be a smooth Fano hypersurface of dimension $n$ and degree $d$. The derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$ contains an interesting subcategory called the Kuznetsov component $\mathcal{A}_X$. We show that…
