We solve the problem of inversion of an extended Abel-Jacobi map $$ \int_{P_{0}}^{P_{1}}\omega +...+\int_{P_{0}}^{P_{g+n-1}}\omega ={\bf z}, \qquad \int_{P_{0}}^{P_{1}}\Omega_{j1}+... +\int_{P_{0}}^{P_{g+n-1}}\Omega_{j1} =Z_{j},\quad…

We construct a derived pushforward of the r-th root of the universal line bundle over the Picard stack of genus g prestable curves carrying a line bundle. We prove a number of basic properties, and give a formula in terms of standard…

This survey grew out of notes accompanying a cycle of lectures at the workshop Modern Trends in Gromov-Witten Theory, in Hannover. The lectures are devoted to interactions between Hurwitz theory and Gromov-Witten theory, with a particular…

We construct modular compactifications of the universal Jacobian stack over the moduli stack of reduced curves with marked points depending on stability parameters obtained out of fixing a vector bundle on the universal curve. When…

The purpose of this paper is to study the cohomology rings of universal compactified Jacobians. Over the moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ of Deligne-Mumford stable marked curves with $n\geq 1$, on the one hand we show that the…

We compute the classes of universal theta divisors of degrees zero and g-1 over the Deligne-Mumford compactification of the moduli space of curves, with various integer weights on the points, in particular reproving a recent result of…

A basic technique for studying a family of Jacobian varieties is to extend the family by adding degenerate fibers. Constructing an extension requires a choice of fibers, and one typically chooses to include either degenerate group varieties…

Inside the moduli space of curves of genus 2 with 2 marked points we consider the loci of curves admitting a map to P^1 of degree d totally ramified over the two marked points, for d>= 2. Such loci have codimension two. We compute the class…

We construct the moduli stack of properly balanced vector bundles on semistable curves and we determine explicitly its Picard group. As a consequence, we obtain an explicit description of the Picard groups of the universal moduli stack of…

We construct a general semiregularity map for cycles on a complex analytic or algebraic manifold and show that such semiregularity map can be obtained from the classical tool of the Atiyah-Chern character. The first part of the paper is…

Determining the limiting behaviour of the Jacobian as the underlying curve degenerates has been the subject of much interest. For nodal singularities, there are beautiful constructions of Caporaso as well as Pandharipande of compactified…

We realize the infinitesimal Abel-Jacobi map as a morphism of formal deformation theories, realized as a morphism in the homotopy category of differential graded Lie algebras. The whole construction is carried out in a general setting, of…

To a compact tropical variety of arbitrary dimension, we associate a collection of intermediate Jacobians defined in terms of tropical homology and tropical monodromy. We then develop an Abel-Jacobi theory in the tropical setting by…

The principal aim of this paper is to extend Abel's theorem to the setting of complex supermanifolds of dimension 1|q over a finite-dimensional local supercommutative C-algebra. The theorem is proved by establishing a compatibility of Serre…

The double ramification (DR) cycle associated to a line bundle on a family of curves detects where the line bundle becomes fibrewise-trivial. The Hodge-DR Conjecture proposes a formula for powers of the first Chern class of a natural line…

Generalised Heegner cycles are associated to a pair of an elliptic Hecke eigenform and a Hecke character over an imaginary quadratic extension $K/\Q$. Let $p$ be an odd prime split in $K/\Q$ and $l\neq p$ an odd unramified prime. We prove…

In this paper we investigate Abel maps on normal surface singularities described in \cite{NNI}. We investigate the affine version of the class of the images of Abel maps on normal surface singularities. More precisely we consider the…

We determine the rational Chow ring of the universal moduli space of rank $2$ semistable bundles over smooth curves of genus $2$, and show that it is generated by certain tautological classes. In the process, we obtain Chow rings of…

We introduce a new logarithmic structure on the moduli stack of stable curves, admitting logarithmic gluing maps. Using this we define cohomological field theories taking values in the logarithmic Chow cohomology ring, a refinement of the…

We study the ramification divisors of projections of a smooth projective variety onto a linear subspace of the same dimension. We prove that the ramification divisors vary in a maximal dimensional family for a large class of varieties.…
