Let X be a smooth irreducible complex projective curve of genus g > 1. In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for an unstable bundle of HN-lenght 2 to have a particular algebra of endomorphisms. Then, fixing the…

The space of generalized projective structures on a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ of genus g with n marked points is the affine space over the cotangent bundle to the space of SL(N)-opers. It is a phase space of $W_N$-gravity on…

We study the compactification of the moduli space of a certain class of rank-two irregular connections on the Riemann sphere, presenting one double pole and two simple poles. To construct the compactification explicitly, we identify a class…

We provide a complete description of realizable period representations for meromorphic differentials on Riemann surfaces with prescribed orders of zeros and poles, hyperelliptic structure, and spin parity.

We give many examples in which there exist infinitely many divisorial conditions on the moduli space of polarized K3 surfaces $(S,H)$ of degree $H^2=2g-2$, $g \geq 3$, and Picard number $rk N(S)=\rho(S)=2$ such that for a general K3 surface…

We analyse the moduli space and the structure of noncommutative 3-spheres. We develop the notion of central quadratic form for quadratic algebras, and prove a general algebraic result which considerably refines the classical homomorphism…

In 2006, Kenyon and Okounkov computed the moduli space of Harnack curves of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2$. We generalize to any projective toric surface some of the techniques used there. More precisely, we show that the moduli…

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…

Just as a symmetric surface with separating fixed locus halves into two oriented bordered surfaces, an arbitrary symmetric surface halves into two oriented symmetric half-surfaces, i.e. surfaces with crosscaps. Motivated in part by the…

We show that the moduli space of $n$ suitably embedded copies of a closed smooth manifold $P$ inside a closed smooth manifold $M$ satisfies cohomological periodicity over $\mathbb F_\ell$ when $n$ grows, with an explicit linear bound on the…

We study the infinitesimal rigidity of equivariant minimal maps from the universal cover of a smooth oriented surface (possibly non-compact) into a Riemannian symmetric space, focusing on representations arising from cyclic harmonic…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective irreducible curve of genus $g$. And let $G_{\alpha}(n,d,l)$ be the moduli space of $\alpha$ stable pairs of a vector bundle of $\rank n, \deg d$ and a subspace of $H^0(C,E)$ of $\dim = l $. We find an explicit…

We show that the pure mapping class group $\mathcal{N}_{g}^{k}$ of a non-orientable closed surface of genus $g\geqslant 2$ with $k\geqslant 1$ marked points has $p$-periodic cohomology for each odd prime $p$ for which $\mathcal{N}_{g}^{k}$…

For some positive integers $g$ and $n$ we consider a subgroup $\mathbb{G}_{g,n}$ of the $2g$-dimensional modular group keeping invariant a certain locus $\mathcal{W}_{g,n}$ in the Siegel upper half plane of degree $g$. We address the…

A framework (a straight-line embedding of a graph into a normed space allowing edges to cross) is globally rigid if any other framework with the same edge lengths with respect to the chosen norm is an isometric copy. We investigate global…

We denote by $\mathcal{H}_{d,g,r}$ the Hilbert scheme of smooth curves, which is the union of components whose general point corresponds to a smooth, irreducible and non-degenerate curve of degree $d$ and genus $g$ in $\mathbb{P}^r.$ In…

We study a space of genus $g$ stable, $n$-marked tropical curves with total edge length $1$. Its rational homology is identified both with top-weight cohomology of the complex moduli space $M_{g,n}$ and with the homology of a marked version…

The crystalline period map is a tool for linearizing $p$-divisible groups. It has been applied to study the Langlands correspondences, and has possible applications to the homotopy groups of spheres. The original construction of the period…

Let $g$ be locally homogeneous (LH) Riemannian metric on a differentiable compact manifold $M$, and $K$ be a compact Lie group endowed with an $\mathrm {ad}$-invariant inner product on its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{k}$. A connection $A$ on a…

We give definitions of moduli spaces of framed, r-Spin and Pin surfaces. We apply earlier work of the author to show that each of these moduli spaces exhibits homological stability, and we identify the stable integral homology with that of…
