We construct Mori Dream Spaces as fine moduli spaces of representations of bound quivers, thereby extending results of Craw--Smith \cite{CrawSmith} beyond the toric case. Any collection of effective line bundles $\mathscr{L}=(\mathscr{O}_X,…
In the paper [MTT] a conceptuel description of compactifications of moduli spaces of stable vector bundles on surfaces has been given, whose boundaries consist of vector bundles on trees of sufaces. In this article a typical basic case for…
We totally classify the projective toric varieties whose canonical divisors are divisible by their dimensions. In Appendix, we show that Reid's toric Mori theory implies Mabuchi's characterization of the projective space for toric…
We investigate Hermitian metrics on the anti-canonical bundle of a rational surface obtained by blowing up the projective plane at nine points. For that purpose, we pose a modified variant of an argument made by Ueda on the complex analytic…
In this paper we develop a technique for discovering (non-effective) irrational rays at the boundary of the Mori cone for linear systems on a general blowup of the plane, and give examples of such irrational rays.
In this paper, we construct a large class of examples of proper, nonprojective crepant resolutions of singularities for Nakajima quiver varieties. These include four and six dimensional examples and examples with $Q$ containing only three…
In this article, we construct differential modular forms for compact Shimura curves over totally real fields bigger than rational of non-zero integral weights that is not classical (of order zero) generalizing the construction of Buium [8].
We discuss the Calabi--Yau type structure of normal projective surfaces and Mori dream spaces admitting a non-trivial polarized endomorphism.
Building on the work of Goto, Nishida and Watanabe on symbolic Rees algebras of monomial primes, we prove that the moduli space of stable rational curves with n punctures is not a Mori Dream Space for n>133. This answers the question of Hu…
The purpose of the present paper is threefold. First: giving a treatise on weighted projective spaces by the toric point of view. Second: providing characterizations of fans and polytopes giving weighted projective spaces, with particular…
A fake projective plane is a smooth complex surface which is not the complex projective plane but has the same Betti numbers as the complex projective plane. The first example of such a surface was constructed by David Mumford in 1979 using…
We use homogeneous spectra of multigraded rings to construct toric embeddings of a large family of projective varieties which preserve some of the birational geometry of the underlying variety, generalizing the well-known construction…
Our purpose in this paper is to construct new examples of twisted Brill-Noether loci on curves of genus $g\ge2$. Many of these examples have negative expected dimension. We deduce also the existence of a new region in the Brill-Noether map,…
We consider weak Fano manifolds with small contractions obtained by blowing up successively curves and subvarieties of codimension 2 in products of projective spaces. We give a classification result for a special case. In the process of…
We give a method for constructing maps from a non-commutative scheme to a commutative projective curve. With the aid of Artin-Zhang's abstract Hilbert schemes, this is used to construct analogues of the extremal contraction of a…
We characterise smooth curves in P^3 whose blow-up produces a threefold with anticanonical divisor big and nef. These are curves C of degree d and genus g lying on a smooth quartic, such that (i) $4d-30 \le g\le 14$ or $(g,d) = (19,12)$,…
Projective structures on curves appear naturally in many areas of mathematics, from extrinsic conformal geometry to analysis, where the main problem is to find qualitative information about the solutions of Hill equations. In this paper, we…
We give a criterion for a projectivized toric vector bundle to be a Mori dream space and describe its Cox ring using generators and relations. Both of these results are in terms of the matroids of all symmetric powers of the bundle. We also…
We construct a resolution of stratified Mukai flops of type A, D, E_{6, I} by successively blowing up smooth subvarieties. In the case of E_{6, I}, we construct a natural functor which induces an isomorphism between the Chow groups.
We study finite-energy blow-ups for prescribed Morse scalar curvatures in both the subcritical and the critical regime. After general considerations on Palais-Smale sequences we determine precise blow up rates for subcritical solutions: in…
