We give a proof of the strange duality or rank-level duality of the WZW models of conformal blocks by extending the genus-0 result, obtained by Nakanishi-Tsuchiya in 1992, to higher genus curves via the sewing procedure. The new ingredient…

The moduli space $\mathrm{rat}_d$ of rational maps in one complex variable of degree $d \ge 2$ has a natural compactification by a projective variety $\overline{\mathrm{rat}}_d$ provided by geometric invariant theory. Given $n \ge 2$, the…

Motivated by the $L$-space conjecture, we prove left-orderability of certain Dehn fillings on integral homology solid tori with techniques first appearing in the work of Culler-Dunfield. First, we use the author's previous results to…

We show that there is a natural perverse sheaf on the moduli space of semistable sheaves on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 3-fold which is locally the perverse sheaf of vanishing cycles for a local Chern-Simons functional. This gives us a…

In the present paper, we devise a version of topological $L^2$-Serre duality for singular complex spaces with arbitrary singularities. This duality is used to deduce various new $L^2$-vanishing theorems for the $\bar{\partial}$-equation on…

In this note we look at the moduli space $\cR_{3,2}$ of double covers of genus three curves, branched along 4 distinct points. This space was studied by Bardelli, Ciliberto and Verra. It admits a dominating morphism $\cR_{3,2} \to {\mathcal…

We prove that the moduli space of stable sheaves of rank 2 with a certain Chern classes on a smooth quadric $Q$ in $\PP_3$, is isomorphic to $\PP_3$. Using this identification, we give a new proof that a certain Brill-Noether locus on a…

We study characteristic classes of hypersurfaces in the complex projective space, with emphasis on secants to rational normal curves. For $Sec_k C\subset \mathbb{P}^{n}$, the secant of $k$ points to a rational normal curve $C\subset…

We prove existence of aCM and Ulrich sheaves respect to ample and globally generated polarisations on a class of special finite coverings $f:X\to\mathbb{P}^n$, which in particular contains cyclic ones. In the case of rank $2$ on double…

For any odd $n$, we describe a smooth minimal (i.e. obtained by adding an irreducible hypersurface) compactification $\tilde S_n$ of the quasi-projective homogeneous variety $S_{n}=PGL(n+1)/SL(2)$ that parameterizes the rational normal…

The main aim of this survey paper is to gather together some results concerning the Calabi type duality discovered by Hojoo Lee between certain families of (spacelike) graphs with constant mean curvature in Riemannian and Lorentzian…

A complex smooth prime Fano threefold $X$ of genus $9$ is related via projective duality to a quartic plane curve $\Gamma$. We use this setup to study the restriction of rank $2$ stable sheaves with prescribed Chern classes on $X$ to an…

We introduce coupled Seiberg-Witten equations, and we prove, using a generalized vortex equation, that, for Kaehler surfaces, the moduli space of solutions of these equations can be identified with a moduli space of holomorphic stable…

Given a smooth genus two curve $C$, the moduli space SU$_C(3)$ of rank three semi-stable vector bundles on $C$ with trivial determinant is a double cover in $\mathbb{P}^8$ branched over a sextic hypersurface, whose projective dual is the…

We show that each of the irreducible components of moduli of rank 2 torsion-free sheaves with odd Euler characteristic over a reducible nodal curve is rational.

We construct an irreducible holomorphic connection with SL(2,R)-monodromy on the trivial holomorphic vector bundle of rank two over a compact Riemann surface. This answers a question of Calsamiglia, Deroin, Heu and Loray in \cite{CDHL}.

Let $X$ be a Hirzebruch surface, and let $H$ be any ample divisor. In this paper, we algorithmically determine when the moduli space of semistable sheaves $M_{X,H}(r,c_1,c_2)$ is nonempty. Our algorithm relies on certain stacks of…

In this paper we prove some new Stone-type duality theorems for some subcategories of the category $\ZLC$ of locally compact zero-dimensional Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps. These theorems are new even in the compact case. They…

Let $\mathcal{M}(d,\chi)$ be the moduli stack of stable sheaves of rank 0, Euler characteristic $\chi$ and first Chern class $dH~(d>0)$, with $H$ the hyperplane class in $\mathbb{P}^2$. We compute the $A$-valued motivic measure…
