The moduli space of (1,p)-polarized abelian surfaces is a quasi-projective variety. In the case when p is a prime, we study its Kodaira dimension. We show that it is of general type for p > 71 and some smaller values of p. This improves an…

Motivated by the study of the growth rate of the number of geodesics in flat surfaces with bounded lengths, we study generalizations of such problems for K3 surfaces. In one generalization, we give a result regarding the upper bound on the…

Based on the work of Borcherds we construct on the moduli space of K3 surfaces with B-field an automorphic form exp_{4,20} which vanishes on the totally geodesic subspaces orthogonal to -2 vectors of the even, unimodular lattice of…

Components of the Moduli space of sheaves on a K3 surface are parametrized by a lattice; the (algebraic) Mukai lattice. Isometries of the Mukai lattice often lift to symplectic birational isomorphisms of the collection of components. An…

We study the moduli of elliptic K3 surfaces with a section with the $ADE$ rank 17. While the Picard number of a generic K3 surface in such moduli space is 19, the Picard number is enhanced to 20 at special points in the moduli. K3 surfaces…

We study the Noether-Lefschetz locus of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}$ of $K3^{[2]}$-fourfolds with a polarization of degree $2$. Following Hassett's work on cubic fourfolds, Debarre, Iliev, and Manivel have shown that the Noether-Lefschetz…

We consider an equivariant analogue of a conjecture of Borcherds. Let $Y$ be a real $K3$ surface without real points. Let $g$ be a Ricci-flat Kaehler metric on $Y$ invariant under the complex conjugation. We shall prove that the equivariant…

Motivated by several recent results on the geometry of the moduli spaces $\bar{\Cal M}_{g,n}$ of stable curves of genus $g$ with $n$ marked points, here we determine their birational structure for small values of $g$ and $n$ by exploiting…

Let X be a K3 surface with a polarization H with H^2=2rs. Assume that H.N(X)=Z for the Picard lattice N(X). The moduli space Y of sheaves over X with the Mukai vector (r,H,s) is again a K3 surface. We prove that Y\cong X, if there exists…

Using wall-crossing for K3 surfaces, we establish birational equivalence of moduli spaces of stable objects on generic Enriques surfaces for different stability conditions. As an application, we prove in the case of a Mukai vector of odd…

We show that the moduli space of odd spin curves of genus 9 is unirational. This is the highest genus for which such a result is known. This is achieved by realizing birationally the moduli space of odd spin curves of genus g<10 as a…

In this study, we construct four-dimensional F-theory models with 3 to 8 U(1) factors on products of K3 surfaces. We provide explicit Weierstrass equations of elliptic K3 surfaces with Mordell-Weil ranks of 3 to 8. We utilize the method of…

In this paper we give the topological classification of real primary Kodaira surfaces and we describe in detail the structure of the corresponding moduli space. One of the main tools is the orbifold fundamental group of a real variety. Our…

A well-known principle of Mumford asserts that all moduli spaces of curves are varieties of general type, except a finite number of cases that occur for relatively small genus, when these varieties tend to be uniruled. In all known cases,…

We sharpen our previous results on the g and n such that the moduli space of curves of genus g with n marked points is of general type.

We study the rationality properties of the moduli space $\mathcal{A}_g$ of principally polarised abelian $g$-folds over $\mathbb{Q}$ and apply the results to arithmetic questions. In particular we show that any principally polarised abelian…

Let X be a K3 surface and M a smooth and projective moduli space of stable sheaves on X of Mukai vector v. A universal sheaf U over X x M induces an integral transform F from the derived category D(X) of coherent sheaves on X to that on M.…

For any elements b,c of a number field K, let G(b,c) denote the backwards orbit of b under the map f_c: C-->C given by f_c(x)=x^2+c. We prove an upper bound on the number of elements of G(b,c) whose degree over K is at most some constant B.…

We prove that up to scaling there are only finitely many integral lattices L of signature (2,n) with n>20 or n=17 such that the modular variety defined by the orthogonal group of L is not of general type. In particular, when n>107, every…

Mukai's program seeks to recover a K3 surface $X$ from any curve $C$ on it by exhibiting it as a Fourier-Mukai partner to a Brill-Noether locus of vector bundles on the curve. In the case $X$ has Picard number one and the curve $C\in |H|$…
