We generalize the notion of quasielliptic curves, which have infinitesimal symmetries and exist only in characteristic two and three, to a remarkable hierarchy of regular curves having infinitesimal symmetries, defined in all…

We prove a simultaneous generalization of the classical Riemann-Hurwitz and Plucker formulas, addressing the total inflection of a morphism from a (smooth, projective) curve to an arbitrary (smooth, projective) higher-dimensional variety.…

Let X be a non-singular algebraic curve of genus at least 3 and let M denote the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank n and fixed determinant of degree d with n and d coprime. For any semistable bundle E over X, we can pull E back…

We show that a general curve in an explicit class of what we call Du Val pointed curves satisfies the Brill-Noether Theorem for pointed curves. Furthermore, we prove that a generic pencil of Du Val pointed curves is disjoint from all…

We study the center problem for the class $\mathcal E_\Gamma$ of Abel differential equations $\frac{dv}{dt}=a_1 v^2+a_2 v^3$, $a_1,a_2\in L^\infty ([0,T])$, such that images of Lipschitz paths $\tilde A:=\bigl(\int_0^\cdot a_1(s)ds,…

In this paper, we describe the Brill--Noether theory of a general smooth plane curve and a general curve $C$ on a Hirzebruch surface of fixed class. It is natural to study the line bundles on such curves according to the splitting type of…

For an orbifold X and $\alpha \in H^3(X, Z)$, we introduce the twisted cohomology $H^*_c(X, \alpha)$ and prove that the Connes-Chern character establishes an isomorphism between the twisted K-groups $K_\alpha^* (X) \otimes C$ and twisted…

Let $X$ be a smooth geometrically connected projective curve over the field of fractions of a discrete valuation ring $R$, and $\mathfrak{m}$ a modulus on $X$, given by a closed subscheme of $X$ which is geometrically reduced. The…

Let $f \colon X \to A$ be a morphism from a smooth projective variety to an abelian variety (over the field of complex numbers). We show that the sheaves $f_* \omega_X^{\otimes m}$ become globally generated after pullback by an isogeny. We…

Let (S,H) be a polarized K3 surface. We define Brill-Noether filtration on moduli spaces of vector bundles on S. Assume that (c_1(E),H) > 0 for a sheaf E in the moduli space. We give a formula for the expected dimension of the Brill-Noether…

Let $V$ be a possibly singular scheme-theoretic complete intersection subscheme of $\mathbb{P}^n$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Using a recent result of Fullwood ("On Milnor classes via invariants of singular…

We complete the proof of a theorem we announced and partly proved in [Math. Nachr. 271 (2004), 69-90, math.AG/0111299]. The theorem concerns a family of curves on a family of surfaces. It has two parts. The first was proved in that paper.…

Let $X=G/P$ be a partial flag variety, where $G$ is a semi-simple, simply connected algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of positive characteristic. Let $\mathsf{F}\colon X\to X$ be the absolute Frobenius morphism.…

We survey the theory of the compactified Jacobian associated to a singular curve. We focus on describing low genus examples using the Abel map.

We explicitly calculate the Grothendieck $K$-theory ring of a smooth toric Deligne-Mumford stack and define an analog of the Chern character. In addition, we calculate $K$-theory pushforwards and pullbacks for weighted blowups of reduced…

In this article we study compact K\ahler manifolds satisfying a certain nonnegativity condition on the bisectional curvature. Under this condition, we show that the scalar curvature is nonnegative and that the first Chern class is positive…

We study some automorphic cohomology classes of degree one on the Griffiths-Schmid varieties attached to some unitary groups in 3 variables. Using partial compactifications of those varieties, constructed by K. Kato and S. Usui, we define…

Let $j$ be a Lawvere-Tierney topology (a topology, for short) on an arbitrary topos $\mathcal{E}$, $B$ an object of $\mathcal{E}$, and $j_B = j\times 1_B$ the induced topology on the slice topos $\mathcal{E}/B$. In this manuscript, we…

We construct new indecomposable elements in the higher Chow group CH2(A,1) of a principally polarized Abelian surface over a non Archimedean local field, which generalize an element constructed by Collino. These elements are constructed…

We study the Jacobian $J$ of the smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $r-1$ with affine model $y^r = x^{r-1}(x + 1)(x + t)$ over the function field $\mathbb{F}_p(t)$, when $p$ is prime and $r\ge 2$ is an integer prime to $p$. When $q$ is a…
