We study Esteves's fine compactified Jacobians for nodal curves. We give a proof of the fact that, for a one-parameter regular local smoothing of a nodal curve $X$, the relative smooth locus of a relative fine compactified Jacobian is…

Given a smooth genus two curve $C$, the moduli space SU$_C(3)$ of rank three semi-stable vector bundles on $C$ with trivial determinant is a double cover in $\mathbb{P}^8$ branched over a sextic hypersurface, whose projective dual is the…

We give a new construction of noncommutative surfaces via elliptic difference operators, attaching a 1-parameter noncommutative deformation to any projective rational surface with smooth anticanonical curve. The construction agrees with one…

Given an integer $N \geq 3$, we prove that for any ring $R$ and any finite locally free $R$-group scheme $G$ which is fppf-locally (over $R$) isomorphic the $N$-torsion subscheme of some elliptic curve $E/R$, there is a smooth affine curve…

Let $f:X\to Y$ be a Cohen-Macaulay map of finite type between Noetherian schemes, and $:Y'\to Y$ a base change map, with $Y'$ Noetherian. Let $f'$ be the base change of $f$ under $g$ and $g'$ the base change of $g$ under $f$. We show that…

In this paper for each $n\ge g\ge 0$ we consider the moduli stack $\widetilde{\mathcal U}^{ns}_{g,n}$ of curves $(C,p_1,\ldots,p_n,v_1,\ldots,v_n)$ of arithmetic genus $g$ with $n$ smooth marked points $p_i$ and nonzero tangent vectors…

We give finite presentations for the fundamental group of moduli stacks of smooth Weierstrass curves over complex projective space P^n which extend the classical result for elliptic curves to positive dimensional base. We thus get natural…

The moduli space of Gieseker vector bundles is a compactification of moduli of vector bundles on a nodal curve. This moduli space has only normal crossing singularity and it provides a flat degeneration. We prove a Torelli type theorem for…

C.~P\'{e}pin recently constructed a semi-factorial compactification of the N\'{e}ron model of an abelian variety using the flattening technique of Raynaud--Gruson. Here we prove that an explicit semi-factorial compactification is a certain…

We study the moduli space of pairs consisting of a smooth cubic surface and a smooth hyperplane section, via a Hodge theoretic period map due to Laza, Pearlstein, and the second named author. The construction associates to such a pair a…

We prove that certain degenerate abelian varieties, the compactified Jacobian of a nodal curve and a stable quasiabelian variety, satisfy autoduality. We establish this result by proving a comparison theorem that relates the associated…

We give new contributions to the existence problem of canonical surfaces of high degree. We construct several families (indeed, connected components of the moduli space) of surfaces $S$ of general type with $p_g=5,6$ whose canonical map has…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g \geq 2$ and $M$ be the moduli space of rank 2 stable vector bundles on $X$ whose determinants are isomorphic to a fixed odd degree line bundle $L$. There has been a lot of works studying the…

We show that any commutative rationally ruled surface with a choice of anticanonical curve admits a 1-parameter family of noncommutative deformations parametrized by the Jacobian of the anticanonical curve, and show that many standard facts…

The paper studies representation theoretic aspects of a nonabelian version of the Jacobian for a smooth complex projective surface $X$ introduced in [R1]. The sheaf of reductive Lie algebras $\bf\calG$ associated to the nonabelian Jacobian…

We prove that N\'eron models of jacobians of generically-smooth nodal curves over bases of arbitrary dimension are quasi-compact (hence of finite type) whenever they exist. We give a simple application to the orders of torsion subgroups of…

We construct a family of nef divisor classes on every moduli space of stable complexes in the sense of Bridgeland. This divisor class varies naturally with the Bridgeland stability condition. For a generic stability condition on a K3…

We consider the generalized Jacobian $\widetilde{J}$ of the modular curve $X_0(N)$ of level $N$ with respect to a reduced divisor consisting of all cusps. Supposing $N$ is square free, we explicitly determine the structure of the…

We present three families of pairs of geometrically non-isomorphic curves whose Jacobians are isomorphic to one another as unpolarized abelian varieties. Each family is parametrized by an open subset of P^1. The first family consists of…
