We first prove a generalized Brill-Noether theorem for linear series with prescribed multivanishing sequences on smooth curves. We then apply this theorem to prove that spaces of limit linear series have the expected dimension for a certain…

This is the second of a series of papers which aim towards a classification of edge-transitive maps of which the Euler characteristic and the edge number are coprime. This one carries out the classification work for arc-transitive maps with…

Euler graphs are characterized by the simple criterion that degree of each node is even. By restricting on the cycle types yet additional intrinsic properties of Euler graphs are unveiled. For example, regularity higher than degree two is…

Let $E$ be the bundle defined by applying a polynomial representation of $GL_n$ to the tautological bundle on the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points in the complex plane. By a result of Haiman, the Cech cohomology groups $H^i(E)$ vanish for all…

In this paper we consider the $q$-Brauer algebra over $R$ a commutative noetherian domain. We first construct a new basis for $q$-Brauer algebras, and we then prove that it is a cell basis, and thus these algebras are cellular in the sense…

In this paper we provide a classification of all regular maps on surfaces of Euler characteristic $-r^d$ for some odd prime $r$ and integer $d\ge 1$. Such maps are necessarily non-orientable, and the cases where $d = 1$ or $2$ have been…

Using the weak factorization theorem we give a simple presentation for the value group of the universal Euler characteristic with compact support for varieties of characteristic zero and describe the value group of the universal Euler…

The Euler characteristic of a cell complex is often thought of as the alternating sum of the number of cells of each dimension. When the complex is infinite, the sum diverges. Nevertheless, it can sometimes be evaluated; in particular, this…

We study $\mathbb{S}_n$-equivariant weight-graded and topological Euler characteristics of the universal Picard stack $\mathrm{Pic}_{g, n}^d \to \mathcal{M}_{g, n}$ of degree-$d$ line bundles over $\mathcal{M}_{g, n}$. We prove that in the…

The Grothendieck-Ogg-Shafarevich formula expresses the Euler characteristic of an etale sheaf on a curve in terms of local data. The purpose of this paper is to prove a version of the G-O-S formula which applies to equicharacteristic…

We introduce new algebro-topological invariants of directed networks, based on the topological construction of the directed clique complex. The shape of the underlying directed graph is encoded in a way that can be studied mathematically to…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $n$ and let $H$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. Let $M_{X,H}(r;c_1, ..., c_{s})$ be the moduli space of $H$-stable vector bundles $E$ on $X$ of rank $r$ and Chern classes $c_i(E)=c_i$ for…

We study those $(2,m,n)$-groups which are almost simple and for which the absolute value of the Euler characteristic is a product of two prime powers. All such groups which are not isomorphic to $PSL_2(q)$ or $PGL_2(q)$ are completely…

We prove that the Jacobian of a general curve C of genus g=2a+1, with g>4, can be realized as a Prym-Tyurin variety for the Brill-Noether curve W^1_{a+2}(C). As a consequence of this result we are able to compute the class of the sum of the…

In this paper we study the Brill Noether locus of rank 2, (semi)stable vector bundles with at least two sections and of suitable degrees on a general $\nu$-gonal curve. We classify its reduced components whose dimensions are at least the…

Given a `genus' function $g=g(n)$, we let $\mathcal{E}^g$ be the class of all graphs $G$ such that if $G$ has order $n$ (that is, has $n$ vertices) then it is embeddable in a surface of Euler genus at most $g(n)$. Let the random graph $R_n$…

We study Brill-Noether loci of three kinds of spectral curves: classical spectral curves as introduced by Hitchin, spectral curves over the projective line and double covers whose branch locus is a canonical divisor. Our techniques are…

The Brill-Noether theory of curves plays a fundamental role in the theory of curves and their moduli and has been intensively studied since the 19th century. In contrast, Brill-Noether theory for higher dimensional varieties is less…

The classical Brill-Noether theorem states that a map from a general curve to a projective space deforms in a family of expected dimension as long as its image does not lie in any hyperplane. In this note, we observe, as a direct…

Wahl's local Euler characteristic measures the local contributions of a singularity to the usual Euler characteristic of a sheaf. Using tools from toric geometry, we study the local Euler characteristic of sheaves of symmetric differentials…
