We describe the invariants of plane quartic curves -- nonhyperelliptic genus 3 curves in their canonical model -- as determined by Dixmier and Ohno, with application to the classification of curves with given structure. In particular, we…

We prove that the Poincare' polynomial of the moduli space of smooth genus 4 curves is 1+t^2+t^4+t^5. We show this by producing a stratification of the space, such that all strata are geometric quotients of complements of discriminants.

Building on our previous joint work with A. Schmitt [7] we explain a recursive algorithm to determine the cohomology of moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on any given curve (in the coprime situation). As an application of the method we compute…

For fields with more than $2$ elements, the classification of the vector spaces of matrices with rank at most $2$ is already known. In this work, we complete that classification for the field $\mathbb{F}_2$. We apply the results to obtain…

We describe the GIT compactification for the moduli space of smooth quintic surfaces in projective space. In particular, we show that a normal quintic surface with at worst an isolated double point or a minimal elliptic singularity is…

We compute some Gromov-Witten invariants of the moduli space of odd degree rank two stable vector bundles over a Riemann surface of any genus. Next we find the first correction term for the quantum product of this moduli space and hence get…

In this note, we verify the classification of local geometries given by A.Z. Petrov. First, we determine criteria for identifying a given 3D Lorentz homogeneous space in Petrov's classification. Then, we identify all inequivalent 1D…

We prove a general convergence result for zeta functions of prehomogeneous vector spaces extending results of H. Saito, F. Sato and Yukie. Our analysis points to certain subspaces which yield boundary terms. We study it further in the setup…

We compute the intersection Betti numbers of the GIT model of the moduli space of numerically polarized Enriques surfaces of degree 2. The strategy of the cohomological calculation relies on a general method developed by Kirwan to compute…

We introduce the multigraded Hilbert scheme, which parametrizes all homogeneous ideals with fixed Hilbert function in a polynomial ring that is graded by any abelian group. Our construction is widely applicable, it provides explicit…

The P-matrix approach for the determination of the orbit spaces of compact linear groups enabled to determine all orbit spaces of compact coregular linear groups with up to 4 basic polynomial invariants and, more recently, all orbit spaces…

We introduce a ``pre-Bethe-Ansatz'' system of equations for three dimensional vertex models. We bring to the light various algebraic curves of high genus and discuss some situations where these curves simplify. As a result we describe…

We survey decades of research identifying the (co)homology of configuration spaces with Lie algebra (co)homology. The different routes to this one proto-theorem offer genuinely different explanations of its truth, and we attempt to convey…

For any finite poset P we introduce a homogeneous space as a quotient of the general linear group with the incidence group of P. When P is a chain this quotient is a flag variety; for the trivial poset our construction gives a variety…

We show that, if the family \cal{O} of orbits of all vector fields on a subcartesian space P is locally finite and each orbit in \cal{O} is locally closed, then \cal{O} defines a smooth Whitney A stratification of P. We also show that the…

We compute the Betti numbers and describe the cohomology algebras of the ordered and unordered configuration spaces of three points in complex projective spaces, including the infinite dimensional case. We also compute these invariants for…

We adapt the framework of geometric quantization to the polysymplectic setting. Considering prequantization as the extension of symmetries from an underlying polysymplectic manifold to the space of sections of a Hermitian vector bundle, a…

We give explicit equations for the Chow and Hilbert quotients of a projective scheme X by the action of an algebraic torus T in an auxiliary toric variety. As a consequence we provide GIT descriptions of these canonical quotients, and…

In this paper, we investigate equigeodesics on a compact homogeneous space $M=G/H.$ We introduce a formula for the identification of equigeodesic vectors only relying on the isotropy representation of $M$ and the Lie structure of the Lie…

In this paper, we describe a stratification on the reduced special fiber of the basic unramified unitary Rapoport-Zink space of signature $(1,n-1)$ and at arbitrary parahoric level. We prove the smoothness, irreducibility and compute the…
