In this note, we announce a general result resolving the long-standing question of nonlinear modulational stability, or stability with respect to localized perturbations, of periodic traveling-wave solutions of the generalized…

This is the second paper in a series on intrinsic Donaldson-Thomas theory, a framework for studying the enumerative geometry of general algebraic stacks. In this paper, we present the construction of Donaldson-Thomas invariants for general…

We study the existence of extremal K\"ahler metrics on K\"ahler manifolds. After introducing a notion of relative K-stability for K\"ahler manifolds, we prove that K\"ahler manifolds admitting extremal K\"ahler metrics are relatively…

We show that a polarised manifold with a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric and discrete automorphisms is K-stable. This refines the K-semistability proved by S. K. Donaldson.

We introduce an analogue of Bridgeland's stability conditions for polarised varieties. Much as Bridgeland stability is modelled on slope stability of coherent sheaves, our notion of Z-stability is modelled on the notion of K-stability of…

In this paper we describe compactified universal Jacobians, i.e. compactifications of the moduli space of line bundles on smooth curves obtained as moduli spaces of rank 1 torsion-free sheaves on stable curves, using an approach due to…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus at least two over the complex numbers. A pair (E,\phi) over X consists of an algebraic vector bundle E over X and a holomorphic section \phi of E. There is a concept of stability for pairs which…

Assume that a projective variety is uniformly valuatively stable with respect to a polarization. We show that the projective variety is uniformly valuatively stable with respect to any polarization sufficiently close to the original…

The aim of this paper is to solve a uniform version of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for polarized toric manifolds. Also, we show a combinatorial sufficient condition for uniform relative K-polystability.

We develop a theory of stable bundles and affine Hermitian-Einstein metrics for flat vector bundles over a special affine manifold (a manifold admitting an atlas whose gluing maps are all locally constant volume-preserving affine maps). Our…

Let X be a smooth projective Deligne-Mumford stack over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. In this paper we construct the moduli stack of very twisted stable maps, extending the notion of twisted stable maps by Abramovich…

In this paper, assuming that a polarized algebraic manifold $(X,L)$ is strongly K-stable, we shall show that the polarization class $c_1(L)$ admits a constant scalar curvature Kaehler metric.

We survey some recent developments in the direction of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture, which relates the existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics to the algebro-geometric notion of K-stability. The emphasis is put on the…

We analyze the relationship between two compactifications of the moduli space of maps from curves to a Grassmannian: the Kontsevich moduli space of stable maps and the Marian--Oprea--Pandharipande moduli space of stable quotients. We…

We study the stability of linear fractional order maps. We show that in the stable region, the evolution is described by Mittag-Leffler functions and a well defined effective Lyapunov exponent can be obtained in these cases. For…

A moduli space of stable quotients of the rank n trivial sheaf on stable curves is introduced. Over nonsingular curves, the moduli space is Grothendieck's Quot scheme. Over nodal curves, a relative construction is made to keep the torsion…

We give a proof of the Gromov compactness theorem using the language of stable curves (i.e. cusp-curve of Gromov, or stable maps of Kontsevich and Manin) in general setting: An almost complex structure on a target manifold is only…

We formulate a notion of K-stability for K\"ahler manifolds, and prove one direction of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture in this setting. More precisely, we prove that the Mabuchi functional being bounded below (resp. coercive) implies…

In this follow up work to [45, 33, 32, 46] we introduce and study a notion of geodesic stability restricted to rays with prescribed singularity types. A number of notions of interest fit into this framework, in particular algebraic- and…

We make a systematic study of the Hilbert-Mumford criterion for different notions of stability for polarised algebraic varieties $(X,L)$; in particular for K- and Chow stability. For each type of stability this leads to a concept of slope…
