We show that the Quot scheme $\text{Quot}_{\mathbf{A}^3}(\mathcal{O}^r,n)$ admits a symmetric obstruction theory, and we compute its virtual Euler characteristic. We extend the calculation to locally free sheaves on smooth $3$-folds, thus…

We study the algebraic $K$-theory of smooth schemes over $W_n(\Bbbk)$, where $\Bbbk$ is a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$. For a $p$-adic smooth scheme $X_{\centerdot}$ over $W_{\centerdot}(k)$, we introduce complexes…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $C$ be an irreducible smooth projective curve over $k$. Let $E$ be a locally free sheaf on $C$ of rank $\geq 2$. Fix an integer $d \geq 2$. Let $\mathcal{Q}$ denote the Quot scheme…

We prove that any geometrically connected curve $X$ over a field $k$ is an algebraic $K(\pi,1)$, as soon as its geometric irreducible components have nonzero genus. This means that the cohomology of any locally constant constructible…

We initiate a study of Hilbert modules over the polynomial algebra A=C[z_1,...,z_d] that are obtained by completing A with respect to an inner product having certain natural properties. A standard Hilbert module is a finite multiplicity…

We prove that a quadratic $A[T]$-module $Q$ with Witt index ($Q/TQ$)$ \geq d$, where $d$ is the dimension of the equicharacteristic regular local ring $A$, is extended from $A$. This improves a theorem of the second named author who showed…

We prove that certain quiver varieties are irreducible and therefore are isomorphic to Hilbert schemes of points of the total spaces of the bundles $\mathcal O_{\mathbb P^1}(-n)$ for $n \ge 1$.

For any smooth quadratic hypersurface $X$ in $\mathbb A^n_k$, we use the iterations of the functor of naive $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected components $\mathcal{S}$ to study the field-valued sections of the sheaf of $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected…
