We define certain stacks of rank one sheaves on a smooth projective variety, and show that they admit proper good moduli spaces. We offer several applications to contractions of subschemes inside Hilbert schemes of points. We construct a…

We show that a compact complex surface which fibers smoothly over a curve of genus >1 with fibers of genus >1 fibers holomorphically. We deduce an improvement of a result in [D Kotschick, Math. Research Letters, 5 (1998) 227-234], and a…

We study moduli of semistable twisted sheaves on smooth proper morphisms of algebraic spaces. In the case of a relative curve or surface, we prove results on the structure of these spaces. For curves, they are essentially isomorphic to…

For a singular variety X, an essential step to determine its smoothability and study its deformations is the understanding of the tangent sheaf and of the sheaf T^1_X:=ext^1(Omega_X,O_X). A variety is semi-smooth if its singularities are…

In this work we prove that any unitary Sobolev $W^{1,2}$ connection of an Hermitian bundle over a 2-dimensional K\"ahler manifold whose curvature is $(1,1)$ defines a smooth holomorphic structure. We prove moreover that such a connection…

We classify the smooth projective symmetric G-varieties with Picard number one (and G semisimple). Moreover we prove a criterion for the smoothness of the simple (normal) symmetric varieties whose closed orbit is complete. In particular we…

If the $\ell$-adic cohomology of a projective smooth variety, defined over a $\frak{p}$-adic field $K$ with finite residue field $k$, is supported in codimension $\ge 1$, then any model over the ring of integers of $K$ has a $k$-rational…

Here we show that for a C^2 surface diffeomorphism that satisfy the hypothesis of Hayashi connecting lemma either can be approximated, in the C^1 topology, by a diffeomorphism exhibiting a homoclinic tangency or the diffeomorphism already…

Using a recent description of the geometric stability manifold, we show the geometric stability manifold associated to any smooth projective complex surface is contractible. We then use this result to demonstrate infinitely many new…

We develop the technique of compactified correspondences and homotopies over one-dimensional base schemes, and illuminate the perfectness and the inverting of characteristic assumptions from the celebrating Voevodsky's strict homotopy…

We show that a complex normal surface singularity admitting a contracting automorphism is necessarily quasihomogeneous. We also describe the geometry of a compact complex surface arising as the orbit space of such a contracting…

We classify smooth surfaces whose higher cohomologies of i-forms for all i vanish. We show that if such a surface is not affine, then it has essentially two possibilities.

We study the process of $\ell$-adic completion of motivic sheaves. We observe that, in equal characteristic, when restricted to constructible objets, it is compatible with the six operations. This implies that one can reconstruct…

We give the diffeomorphism classification of complete intersections with S^1-symmetry in dimension less than or equal to 6. In particular, we show that a 6-dimensional complete intersection admits a smooth non-trivial S^1-action if and only…

We prove a twist formula for the epsilon factor of a constructible sheaf on a projective smooth variety over a finite field in terms of characteristic class of the sheaf. This formula is a modified version of the formula conjectured by Kato…

In the first part of this paper, we give a global description of simply connected maximal Lorentzian surfaces whose group of isometries is of dimension 1 (i.e. with a complete Killing field), in terms of a 1-dimensional generally…

In this article we prove a global result in the spirit of Basener's theorem regarding the relation between q-pseudoconvexity and q-holomorphic convexity: we prove that any smoothly bounded strictly q-pseudoconvex open subset of the complex…

An isomorphism of symplectically tame smooth pseudocomplex structures on the complex projective plane which is a homeomorphism and differentiable of full rank at two points is smooth.

We examine the topology of the clique complexes of the graphs of weakly and strongly separated subsets of the set $[n]=\{1,2,...,n\}$, which, after deleting all cone points, we denote by $\hat{\Delta}_{ws}(n)$ and $\hat{\Delta}_{ss}(n)$,…

We prove that, over a perfect field, Bredon motivic cohomology can be computed by Suslin-Friedlander complexes of equivariant equidimensional cycles. Partly based on this result we completely identify Bredon motivic cohomology of a…
