We use generalised Bialynicki-Birula decomposition, apolarity and obstruction theories to prove non-reducedness of the Hilbert scheme of $13$ points on $\mathbb{A}^6$. Our argument doesn't involve computer calculations and gives an example…
We study locally Cohen-Macaulay curves in projective three-space which are contained in a double plane 2H, thus completing the classification of curves lying on surfaces of degree two. We describe the irreducible components of the Hilbert…
The Hilbert scheme H^d_n of n points in A^d contains an irreducible component R^d_n which generically represents n distinct points in A^d. We show that when n is at most 8, the Hilbert scheme H^d_n is reducible if and only if n = 8 and d >=…
We investigate the Hilbert scheme of points on curves with n-fold singularities, that is curves that look locally around their singular points as the axis in an affine space. We describe the structure and number of its irreducible…
We study families of ropes of any codimension that are supported on lines. In particular, this includes all non-reduced curves of degree two. We construct suitable smooth parameter spaces and conclude that all ropes of fixed degree and…
We prove that the Hilbert scheme of 11 points on a smooth threefold is irreducible. In the course of the proof, we present several known and new techniques for producing curves on the Hilbert scheme.
In this paper we show that the Hilbert scheme $H(3,g)$ of locally Cohen-Macaulay curves in $\Pthree$ of degree three and genus $g$ is connected. In contrast to $H(2,g)$, which is irreducible, $H(3,g)$ generally has many irreducible…
A pair of disjoint lines on a smooth cubic threefold determines an irreducible component of the Hilbert scheme. We prove that this component is smooth and isomorphic to the blow-up of the symmetric product of Fano varieties of lines on the…
We call the scheme parameterizing homogeneous ideals with fixed initial ideal the Gr\"obner scheme. We introduce a Bia{\l}ynicki-Birula decomposition of the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^{P}_n$ for any Hilbert polynomial $P$ such that the…
Hilbert schemes of suitable smooth, projective manifolds of low degree which are 3-fold scrolls over the Hirzebruch surface F_1 are studied. An irreducible component of the Hilbert scheme parametrizing such varieties is shown to be…
We analyse the geometry of Hilbert schemes of points on abelian surfaces and Beauville's generalized Kummer varieties in positive characteristics. The main result is that, in characteristic two, the addition map from the Hilbert scheme of…
We study an irreducible component H(X) of the Hilbert scheme Hilb^{2t+2}(X) of a smooth cubic hypersurface X containing two disjoint lines. For cubic threefolds, H(X) is always smooth, as shown in arXiv:2010.11622. We provide a second proof…
The Hilbert scheme of $n$ points in the affine plane contains the open subscheme parametrizing $n$ distinct points in the affine plane, and the closed subscheme parametrizing ideals of codimension $n$ supported at the origin of the affine…
We study the existence and the schematic structure of elementary components of the nested Hilbert scheme on a smooth quasi-projective variety. Precisely, we find a new lower bound for the existence of non-smoothable nestings of fat points…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$, and let $H^{\mu}$ denote the Hilbert scheme of $\mu$ points of the affine space $A^n$. An elementary component $E$ of $H^{\mu}$ is an irreducible component such that every…
Let H_{ab} be the equivariant Hilbert scheme parametrizing the 0-dimensional subschemes of the affine plane invariant under the natural action of the one-dimensional torus T_{ab}:={(t^{-b},t^a), t\in k^*}. We compute the irreducible…
We exhibit generically nonreduced components of the Hilbert scheme of at least $21$ points on a smooth variety of dimension at least four. The result was announced in~[Jelisiejew__open_problems] and answers a question~[Problem~3.8, AIMPL].…
The intersection of a complex plane curve with a small three-sphere surrounding one of its singularities is a non-trivial link. The refined punctual Hilbert schemes of the singularity parameterize subschemes supported at the singular point…
We construct irrational irreducible components of the Hilbert scheme of points of affine n-dimensional space, for n at least 12. We start with irrational components of the Hilbert scheme of curves in P^3 and use methods developed by…
