Let X be a non singular projective surface. Given a semistable non isotrivial fibration f over a smooth rational curve with general fiber non hyperelliptic of genus g bigger than 3, we show that if the number s of singular fibers is 5, then…

It is known that a vector bundle E on a smooth projective curve Y defined over an algebraically closed field is semistable if and only if there is a vector bundle F on Y such that the cohomologies of E\otimes F vanish. We extend this…

In this article we study asymptotic slopes of strongly semistable vector bundles on a smooth projective surface. A connection between asymptotic slopes and strong restriction theorem of a strongly semistable vector bundle is shown. We also…

K-polystability is, on the one hand, conjecturally equivalent to the existence of certain canonical K\"ahler metrics on polarised varieties, and, on the other hand, conjecturally gives the correct notion to form moduli. We introduce a…

We prove the existence (in characteristic 0) on every polarized (smooth, projective and connected) surface of stable bundles of rank $r\geq 2$, arbitrary first Chern class and large enough $c_2$.

We analyze Higgs bundles $(V,\phi)$ on a class of elliptic surfaces $\pi:X\to B$, whose underlying vector bundle $V$ has vertical determinant and is fiberwise semistable. We prove that if the spectral curve of $V$ is reduced, then $\phi$ is…

Let X be a smooth complex projective curve of genus g bigger or equal to 1. If g is bigger than 1 assume further that X is either bielliptic or with general moduli. Under a natural condition on slopes, we prove that there exists a short…

We study the positivity of CM line bundles on the coarse moduli space of Kawamata log terminal (klt) good minimal models with Kodaira dimension one. We prove that the seminormalization of the moduli space is quasi-projective under a mild…

Motivated by the study of heterotic string compactifications on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau manifolds, we present a procedure for testing semistability and identifying the decomposition type of degree zero holomorphic vector bundles…

Previously, many people have studied a stability of vector bundles of given rank and Chern classes on algebraic varieties. Recently, we are interested in the slope stability of the rank 2 Lazarsfeld-Mukai bundle $E_{C,Z}$ on a K3 surface…

Over a family of varieties with singular special fiber, the relative Picard functor (i.e. the moduli space of line bundles) may fail to be compact. We propose a stability condition for line bundles on reducible varieties that is aimed at…

We make a systematic study of the Hilbert-Mumford criterion for different notions of stability for polarised algebraic varieties $(X,L)$; in particular for K- and Chow stability. For each type of stability this leads to a concept of slope…

Considering the so-called Simpson system on smooth projective varieties, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, whose canonical bundle is ample, I give another proof the stability of this Higgs bundle, from which…

This note is but a research announcement, summarizing and explaining results proven and detailed in forthcoming papers. When one studies families of objects over curves, and the objects are parametrized by a Deligne-Mumford stack M, then…

Ross and Thomas have shown that subschemes can K-destabilise polarised varieties, yielding a notion known as slope (in)stability for varieties. Here we describe a special situation in which slope instability for varieties (for example of…

Let $C$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve and $E$ be a rank 2 stable vector bundle on $C$. Then one can associate a rank 4 vector bundle $\mathcal{F}_2(E)$ on $S^2(C)$, second symmetric power of $C$. Our goal in this article is to…

The purpose of this paper is to compute the minimal fibering degree of an arbitrary projective toric variety. We prove that it equals the lattice width of the associated polytope. This gives a complete answer to a question asked in a recent…

In this paper we deal with polarizations on a nodal curve $C$ with smooth components. Our aim is to study and characterize a class of polarizations, which we call "good", for which depth one sheaves on $C$ reflect some properties that hold…

In this paper, we study principally polarized abelian varieties $X$ of dimension $g$ that contain a curve $\nu:C\to X$ such that the class of $C$ is $m$ times the minimal class. Welters introduced the formalism of stable pairs to handle…

Classification theory and the study of projective varieties which are covered by rational curves of minimal degrees naturally leads to the study of families of singular rational curves. Since families of arbitrarily singular curves are hard…
