Suppose that $f\colon X\to\mathrm{Spec}\, R$ is a minimal model of a complete local Gorenstein 3-fold, where the fibres of $f$ are at most one dimensional, so by [VdB1d] there is a noncommutative ring $\Lambda$ derived equivalent to $X$.…

We study the twisted ampleness criterion due to Collins, Jacob and Yau on surfaces, which is equivalent to the existence of solutions to the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills (dHYM) equation. When $X$ is a Weierstrass elliptic K3 surface, and…

This paper introduces the notion of a stability condition on a triangulated category. The motivation comes from the study of Dirichlet branes in string theory, and especially from M.R. Douglas's notion of $\Pi$-stability. From a…

We prove that any `finite-type' component of a stability space of a triangulated category is contractible. The motivating example of such a component is the stability space of the Calabi--Yau-$N$ category $\mathcal{D}(\Gamma_N Q)$…

We clarify the undecided case $c_2 = 3$ of a theorem of Ein, Hartshorne and Vogelaar [Math. Ann. 259 (1982), 541--569] about the restriction of a stable rank 3 vector bundle with $c_1 = 0$ on the projective 3-space to a general plane. It…

We study certain moduli spaces of stable vector bundles of rank two on cubic and quartic threefolds. In many cases under consideration, it turns out that the moduli space is complete and irreducible and a general member has vanishing…

Let $M\stackrel\pi \arrow X$ be a principal elliptic fibration over a Kaehler base $X$. We assume that the Kaehler form on $X$ is lifted to an exact form on $M$ (such fibrations are called positive). Examples of these are regular Vaisman…

We develop a stability theory for contractive local IFSs on compact metric spaces. Unlike the classical global setting, local systems may exhibit a richer symbolic and geometric structure, including code spaces that are not of finite type…

We here demonstrate that the superfluid 3He-B under a magnetic field in a particular direction stays topological due to a discrete symmetry, that is, in a symmetry protected topological order. Due to the symmetry protected topological…

In these lecture notes we give an introduction to Bridgeland stability conditions on smooth complex projective varieties with a particular focus on the case of surfaces. This includes basic definitions of stability conditions on derived…

On a 4-dimensional compact symplectic manifold, we consider a smooth family of compatible almost-complex structures such that at time zero the induced metric is Hermite-Einstein almost-K\"ahler metric with zero or negative Hermitian scalar…

We show that the Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb{R}^3$ is stable for the Positive Mass Theorem in the following sense. Let $(M_i,g_i)$ be a sequence of complete asymptotically flat $3$-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and suppose that…

We consider mapping class groups \Gamma(M) = pi_0 Diff(M fix \partial M) of smooth compact simply connected oriented 4-manifolds M bounded by a collection of 3-spheres. We show that if M contains CP^2 (with either orientation) as a…

We study ACM bundles on cubic threefolds by using derived category techniques. We prove that the moduli space of stable Ulrich bundles of any rank is always non-empty by showing that it is birational to a moduli space of semistable torsion…

Following Bayer and Macr\`{i}, we study the birational geometry of singular moduli spaces $M$ of sheaves on a K3 surface $X$ which admit symplectic resolutions. More precisely, we use the Bayer-Macr\`{i} map from the space of Bridgeland…

Let $(X,H)$ be a smooth, projective, polarized surface over $\mathbb{C}$, and let $v \in K_{\mathrm{num}}(X)$ be a class of positive rank. We prove that for certain Bridgeland stability conditions $\sigma = (\mathcal{A}, Z)$ "on the…

The modular bootstrap program for 2d CFTs could be seen as a systematic exploration of the physical consequences of consistency conditions at the elliptic points and at the cusp of their toruspartition function. The study at $\tau=i$, the…

We consider stable minimal surfaces of genus 1 in Euclidean space and in Riemannian manifolds. Under the condition of covering stability (all finite covers are stable) we show that a genus 1 finite total curvature minimal surface in…

We prove the Bogomolov-Gieseker type inequality conjectured by Bayer, Macri and Toda for threefolds with semistable tangent bundles and vanishing Chern classes in any characteristic, which was originally proved by Bayer, Macri and Stellari…

This is an overview article, based on my 2018 Kinosaki lecture, that surveys and announces work on 3-fold flopping contractions, their affine combinatorics, stability conditions, tilting bundles and autoequivalences. Some first applications…
