We show that, for a sheet or a Lusztig stratum S containing spherical conjugacy classes in a connected reductive algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field in good characteristic, the orbit space S/G is isomorphic to the quotient…

We prove that the isometry group $\Iso(\Ur)$ of the universal Urysohn metric space $\Ur$ equipped with the natural Polish topology is a L\'evy group in the sense of Gromov and Milman, that is, admits an approximating chain of compact (in…

An extended Kleinian group whose orientation-preserving half is a Schottky group is called an extended Schottky group. These groups correspond to the real points in the Schottky space. Their geometric structures is well known and it permits…

We study the arithmetic of curves and Jacobians endowed with the action of a finite group $G$. This includes a study of the basic properties, as $G$-modules, of their $\ell$-adic representations, Selmer groups, rational points and…

At the end of 1960-ths Yu.S.Ilyashenko stated the problem: is it true that for any one-dimensional holomorphic foliation with singularities on a Stein manifold leaves intersecting a transversal disc can be uniformized so that the…

In 1963, Greenberg proved that every finite group appears as the monodromy group of some morphism of Riemann surfaces. In this paper, we give two constructive proofs of Greenberg's result. First, we utilize free groups, which given with the…

In this article we first show that any finite cover of the moduli space of closed Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ with $g\geq 2$ does not admit any Riemannian metric $ds^2$ of nonnegative scalar curvature such that $ds^2 \succ ds_{T}^2$ where…

We show that a smooth projective curve of genus $g$ can be reconstructed from its polarized Jacobian $(X, \Theta)$ as a certain locus in the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^d(X)$, for $d=3$ and for $d=g+2$, defined by geometric conditions in…

Identifying parallel sides of a collection of Euclidean polygons yields a flat surface with cone points of angles multiples of 2 pi, naturally a compact Riemann surface but also an algebraic curve, and a hyperbolic surface. In general two…

A closed Riemann surface $S$ is called a generalized Fermat curve of type $(p,n)$, where $p,n \geq 2$ are integers, if it admits a group $H \cong {\mathbb Z}_{p}^{n}$ of conformal automorphisms so that $S/H$ is an orbifold of genus zero…

Let C be a complex smooth projective algebraic curve endowed with an action of a finite group G such that the quotient curve has genus at least 3. We prove that if the G-curve C is very general for these properties, then the natural map…

We explore the enumerative problem of finding lines on cubic surfaces defined by symmetric polynomials. We prove that the moduli space of symmetric cubic surfaces is an arithmetic quotient of the complex hyperbolic line, and determine…

The compactification $\overline M_{1,3}$ of the Gieseker moduli space of surfaces of general type with $K_X^2 =1 $ and $\chi(X)=3$ in the moduli space of stable surfaces parametrises so-called stable I-surfaces. We classify all such…

In general, if M is a moduli space of stable sheaves on X, there is a unique alpha in the Brauer group of M such that a pi_M^* alpha^{-1}-twisted universal sheaf exists on X times M. In this paper we study the situation when X and M are K3…

In this paper we give a different proof of a theorem of Paul Breutmann: for a Bruhat-Tits group scheme $\mathcal{H}$ over a smooth projective curve $X$ and a closed embedding into another smooth affine group scheme $\mathcal{G}$, the…

We prove that for any finitely generated group $G$ and any $k\geq1$, the space of $k$-colorings of $G$ does not admit a strict self-embedding. This settles the Gottschalk surjunctivity conjecture and, consequently, Kaplansky's direct…

We show that there are many compact subsets of the moduli space $M_g$ of Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ that do not intersect any symmetry locus. This has interesting implications for $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric conformal field theories…

Let ${\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ denote the moduli space of smooth, genus $g\geq 1$ curves with $n\geq 0$ marked points. Let ${\mathcal A}_h$ denote the moduli space of $h$-dimensional, principally polarized abelian varieties. Let $g\geq 3$ and…

Let $A_g^S$ be the Satake compactification of the moduli space $A_g$ of principally polarized abelian $g$-folds and $M_g^S$ the closure of the image of the moduli space $M_g$ of genus $g$ curves in $A_g$ under the Jacobian morphism. Then…
