We describe birational models and decide the rationality/unirationality of moduli spaces AA_{d} (and AA^{lev}_{d}) of (1,d)-polarized abelian surfaces (with canonical level structure, respectively) for small values of d. The projective…
In this paper, we study rational sections of the relative Picard scheme of a linear system on a smooth projective variety. We prove that if the linear system is basepoint-free and the locus of non-integral divisors has codimension at least…
Lazarsfeld proved Brill--Noether generality of any smooth curve in the linear system $|H|$ where $(X,H)$ is a polarized K3 surface with $\mathrm{Pic}(X) = \mathbb{Z}\cdot H$. Mukai introduced the notion of Brill--Noether generality for…
We completely describe the Brill-Noether theory for curves in the primitive linear system on generic abelian surfaces, in the following sense: given integers $d$ and $r$, consider the variety $V^r_d(|H|)$ parametrizing curves $C$ in the…
The first goal of this article is to survey recent progress in Brill--Noether theory, including both the study of the moduli space of maps from a curve to projective space and the geometry of the resulting curves in projective space. The…
We completely describe all Brill-Noether loci on metric graphs consisting of a chain of g cycles with arbitrary edge lengths, generalizing work of Cools, Draisma, Payne, and Robeva. The structure of these loci is determined by displacement…
By analogy with work of Hitchin on integrable systems, we construct natural relaxations of several kinds of moduli spaces of difference equations, with special attention to a particular class of difference equations on an elliptic curve…
In this paper, we redefine the theory of walls and chambers due to Qin developing a new tool to study moduli spaces of stable rank 2 vector bundles on algebraic varieties of higher dimension. We apply it to describe components of some…
This paper provides an introduction to non-abelian Hodge theory and moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on compact Riemann surfaces. We develop the moduli theory of vector bundles and Higgs bundles, establish the main correspondences of…
We consider K3 surfaces which are double cover of rational elliptic surfaces. The former are endowed with a natural elliptic fibration, which is induced by the latter. There are also other elliptic fibrations on such K3 surfaces, which are…
This work is motivated by two central questions in the birational geometry of moduli spaces of curves -- Fulton's conjecture and the effective cone of $\bar M_g$. We study the algebro-geometric aspect of Teichmuller curves parameterizing…
Brill-Noether theory studies the existence and deformations of curves in projective spaces; its basic object of study is $\mathcal{W}^r_{d,g}$, the moduli space of smooth genus $g$ curves with a choice of degree $d$ line bundle having at…
We determine explicit birational models over Q for the modular surfaces parametrising pairs of N-congruent elliptic curves in all cases where this surface is an elliptic surface. In each case we also determine the rank of the Mordell-Weil…
We discuss the Picard group of moduli space $\mathcal{K}_g$ of quasi-polarized K3 surfaces of genus $g\leq 12$ and $g\neq 11$. In this range, $\mathcal{K}_g$ is unirational and a general element in $\mathcal{K}_g$ is a complete intersection…
We construct and prove the projectiveness of the moduli spaces which are natural generalizations to the case of surfaces of the following: 1) $M_{g,n}$, the moduli space of $n$-marked stable curves, 2) $M_{g,n}(W)$, the moduli space of…
We give many examples in which there exist infinitely many divisorial conditions on the moduli space of polarized K3 surfaces $(S,H)$ of degree $H^2=2g-2$, $g \geq 3$, and Picard number $rk N(S)=\rho(S)=2$ such that for a general K3 surface…
In this paper, we study the moduli space of quasi-polarized complex K3 surfaces of degree 6 and 8 via geometric invariant theory. The general members in such moduli spaces are complete intersections in projective spaces and we have natural…
We describe the application of the results of Kudla-Millson on the modularity of generating series for cohomology classes of special cycles to the case of lattice polarized K3 surfaces. In this case, the special cycles can be interpreted as…
In this paper we examine the topology of Brill-Noether varieties associated to real trigonal curves. More precisely, we aim to count the connected components of the real locus of the varieties parametrizing linear systems of degree $d$ and…
Components of the Moduli space of sheaves on a K3 surface are parametrized by a lattice; the (algebraic) Mukai lattice. Isometries of the Mukai lattice often lift to symplectic birational isomorphisms of the collection of components. An…
