Let ${\cal S}{\cal U}(r, L_0)$ denote the moduli space of semi stable vector bundles of rank $r$ and fixed determinant $L_0$ of degree $d$ on a smooth curve $C$ of genus $g \geq 3$. In this paper we describe the group of automorphisms of $…
We prove that the Brauer group of TMF is isomorphic to the Brauer group of the derived moduli stack of elliptic curves. Then, we compute the local Brauer group, i.e., the subgroup of the Brauer group of elements trivialized by some \'etale…
We investigate the birational geometry (in the sense of Mori's program) of the moduli space of rank 2 semistable parabolic vector bundles on a rational curve. We compute the effective cone of the moduli space and show that all birational…
Let T be a general bidegree (2,2) divisor in the product of two projective planes. Recently A.Verra proved that the existence of two conic bundle structures (c.b.s.) on T implies a new counterexample to the Torelli theorem for Prym…
Let $g \geq 2$ and let the Torelli map denote the map sending a genus $g$ curve to its principally polarized Jacobian. We verify the well known fact that the map induced on tangent spaces by the Torelli map is dual to the multiplication map…
We prove the irreducibility of the moduli space of rank 2 semistable torsion free sheaves (with a generic polarization and any value of c_2) on a K3 or a del Pezzo surface. In the case of a K3 surface, we need to prove a result on the…
Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g \geq 3$. We give a new description of the theta map for moduli spaces of rank 2 semistable vector bundles with trivial determinant. In orther to do this, we describe a fibration of (a birational…
Let $C$ be a chain-like curve over $\mathbb{C}$. In this paper, we investigate the rationality of moduli spaces of $w$-semistable vector bundles on $C$ of arbitrary rank and fixed determinant by putting some restrictions on the Euler…
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…
Let $C$ be a nonsingular projective curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and $I\subset C$ be a finite set. If $\mathcal{U}_{C,\,\omega}$ denotes the moduli space of semistable parabolic bundles of rank $r$ and…
Let $X$ be a projective curve of genus 2 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. The Frobenius map on X induces a rational map on the moduli space of rank-2 bundles. We show that up to isomorphism, there is only one (up to…
The moduli space M_0 of semi-stable rank 2 vector bundles with fixed trivial determinant over a non-hyperelliptic curve C of genus 3 is isomorphic to a quartic hypersurface in P^7 (Coble's quartic). We show that M_0 is self-dual and that…
For each simply connected, simple complex group $G$ we show that the direct sum of all vector bundles of conformal blocks on the moduli stack $\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{g, n}$ of stable marked curves carries the structure of a flat sheaf of…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective complex curve. We prove that a Torelli type theorem holds, under certain conditions, for the moduli space of $\alpha$-polystable quadratic pairs on $X$ of rank 2.
Let p:C' -> C be an unramified double covering of irreducible smooth curves and let P be the attached Prym variety. We prove the schematic theta-dual equalities in the Prym variety T(C')=V^2 and T(V^2)=C', where V^2 is the Brill-Noether…
Let $f : X \rightarrow Y$ be a separable finite surjective map between irreducible normal projective varieties defined over an algebraically closed field, such that the corresponding homomorphism between \'etale fundamental groups $f_* :…
We study the Torelli morphism from the moduli space of stable curves to the moduli space of principally polarized stable semi-abelic pairs. We give two characterizations of its fibers, describe its injectivity locus, and give a sharp upper…
We provide two examples of smooth projective surfaces of tame CM type, by showing that any parameter space of isomorphism classes of indecomposable ACM bundles with fixed rank and determinant on a rational quartic scroll in projective…
