Let X be a geometrically irreducible smooth projective curve over a field k. We describe the algebra of endomorphisms of indecomposable unstable vector bundles over X of rank 2 and degree d. Fixing some numerical invariants, namely the…

In this paper we count the number of isomorphism classes of geometrically indecomposable quasi-parabolic structures of a given type on a given vector bundle on the projective line over a finite field. We give a conjectural cohomological…

Given a compact Kaehler manifold X, it is shown that pairs of the form (E, D), where E is a trivial holomorphic vector bundle on X, and D is an integrable holomorphic connection on $E$, produce a neutral Tannakian category. The…

On compact Riemann surfaces, the Laplacian has a discrete, non-negative spectrum of eigenvalues of finite multiplicity. The spectrum is intrinsically linked to the geometry of the surface. In this work, we consider surfaces of constant…

The general problem which initiated this work is: What are the quasiprojective varieties which can be uniformized by means of bounded domains in $\cz^n$ ? Such a variety should be, in particular, C--hyperbolic, i.e. it should have a…

A detailed study of uniformly regular Riemannian manifolds and manifolds with singular ends is carried out in this paper. Such classes of manifolds are of fundamental importance for a Sobolev space solution theory for parabolic evolution…

We investigate on the existence of some "sporadic", rank-$r \geqslant 1$ Ulrich vector bundles on suitable $3$-fold scrolls $X$ over the Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb{F}_0$, which arise as tautological embeddings of projectivization of…

We consider, under suitable assumptions, the following situation: $\mathcal B$ is a component of the moduli space of polarized surfaces and $\mathcal V_{m,\delta}$ is the universal Severi variety over $\mathcal B$ parametrizing pairs…

In 1985 Joe Harris proved the long standing claim of Severi that equisingular families of nodal plane curves are irreducible whenever they are non-empty. For families with more complicated singularities this is no longer true. Given a…

We study several geometric and group theoretical problems related to Kodaira fibrations, to more general families of Riemann surfaces, and to surface-by-surface groups. First we provide constraints on Kodaira fibrations that fiber in more…

We present results indicating that the decomposition of a Ricci-flat manifold in its irreducible factors is reflected by the derived category of coherent sheaves. More precisely, we prove that a smooth projective variety that is derived…

A modular fusion category C allows one to define projective representations of the mapping class groups of closed surfaces of any genus. We show that if all these representations are irreducible, then C has a unique Morita-class of simple…

Let ${\mathcal P}{\mathcal M}^\alpha_s$ be a moduli space of stable parabolic vector bundles of rank $n \geq 2$ and fixed determinant of degree $d$ over a compact connected Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g(X) \geq 2$. If $g(X) = 2$, then we…

We prove several finiteness theorems for the normal bundles to souls in nonnegatively curved manifolds. More generally, we obtain finiteness results for open Riemannian manifolds whose topology is concentrated on compact domains of…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g\geq 2$, and ${\cal M}_{\xi}$ a smooth moduli space of fixed determinant semistable vector bundles of rank $n$, with $n\geq 2$, over $X$. Take a smooth anticanonical…

We generalize the higher Riemann-Hilbert correspondence in the presence of scalar curvature for a (possibly non-compact) smooth manifold $M$. We show that the dg-category of curved $\infty$-local systems, the dg-category of graded vector…

We propose a conjectural correspondence between the set of rigid indecomposable modules over the path algebras of acyclic quivers and the set of certain non-self-intersecting curves on Riemann surfaces, and prove the correspondence for the…

In this note we discuss the geometry of Riemannian surfaces having a discrete set of singular points. We assume the conformal structure extends through the singularities and the curvature is integrable. Such points are called \emph{simple…

We show that the classic Verlinde numbers on the moduli space of semistable vector bundles on a smooth projective curve can also be regarded as Segre numbers of natural universal complexes over the moduli space.

It is well-known that the unit cotangent bundle of any Riemannian manifold has a canonical contact structure. A surface in a Riemannian 3-manifold is called a (wave) front if it is the projection of a Legendrian immersion into the unit…
