Sheaves on non-reduced curves can appear in moduli space of 1-dimensional semistable sheaves over a surface, and moduli space of Higgs bundles as well. We estimate the dimension of the stack $\mathbf{M}_{X}(nC,\chi)$ of pure sheaves…

There is a canonical identification, due to the author, of a convex real projective structure on an orientable surface of genus g and a pair consisting of a conformal structure together with a holomorphic cubic differential on the surface.…

Let M be an almost complex manifold equipped with a Hermitian form such that its de Rham differential has Hodge type (3,0)+(0,3), for example a nearly Kahler manifold. We prove that any connected component of the moduli space of…

Given a vector bundle $F$ on a variety $X$ and $W\subset H^0(F)$ such that the evaluation map $W\otimes \mathcal{O}_X\to F$ is surjective, its kernel $S_{F,W}$ is called generalized syzygy bundle. Under mild assumptions, we construct a…

We study the geometry of the moduli space of planes in a general cubic 5-fold and its deformation. We show that this moduli space is a smooth projective surface whose canonical bundle is ample. We also show that the variation of degree 1…

We construct vector-valued modular forms on moduli spaces of curves and abelian varieties using effective divisors in projectivized Hodge bundles over moduli of curves. Cycle relations tell us the weight of these modular forms. In…

We investigate the moduli space ${\mathcal P}_g$ of smooth complex projective curves of genus $g$ equipped with a projective structure. When $g\, \geq\, 3$, it is shown that this moduli space ${\mathcal P}_g$ does not admit any nonconstant…

Following Deligne and Mumford we construct a coarse moduli space of smooth curves with non-abelian level structure, involving higher order commutators. We prove that its Deligne-Mumford compactification is smooth over an open part of…

Fix a smooth projective family of curves $C \to S$ and a split reductive group scheme $G$ over a Noetherian base scheme $S$. For any (possibly nonreduced) fixed relative Cartier divisor $D$, we provide a treatment of the moduli of…

Projective structures on topological surfaces support the structure of 2d CFTs with a degree of technical simplification. We propose a complex analytic space $\mathcal{P}_g$ biholomorphic to $T^*_{(1,0)} \mathcal{M}_g$ as a candidate moduli…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g \geq 3$, and let $G$ be a nontrivial connected reductive affine algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. Examining the moduli spaces of regularly stable $G$-Higgs bundles and holomorphic…

Some coherent sheaves on projective varieties have a non reduced versal deformation space. For example, this is the case for most unstable rank 2 vector bundles on ${\mathbb P}_2$. In particular, it may happen that some moduli spaces of…
