We prove, assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, the Andre-Oort conjecture for Hilbert modular surfaces. More precisely, let K be a real quadratic field and let S be the coarse moduli space of complex abelian surfaces with…

This paper deals with two problems about vector bundles on bielliptic surfaces. The first is to give a classification of Ulrich bundles on such surfaces $S$, which depends on the topological type of $S$. In doing so, we study the weak…

We study arithmetic of the algebraic varieties defined over number fields by applying Lagrange interpolation to fibrations. Assuming the finiteness of the Tate-Shafarevich group of a certain elliptic curve, we show, for Ch\^atelet surface…

We propose singular variants of the Singer-Hopf conjecture, formulated in terms of the Euler-Mather characteristic, intersection homology Euler characteristic and, resp., virtual Euler characteristic of a closed irreducible subvariety of an…

In this paper, we investigate Murre's conjectures on the structure of rational Chow groups and exhibit explicit Chow--Kuenneth projectors for some examples. More precisely, the examples we study are the varieties which have a nef tangent…

In this note we define fibrations of topological stacks and establish their main properties. We prove various standard results about fibrations (fiber homotopy exact sequence, Leray-Serre and Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequences, etc.). We…

We analyze the "eigenbundle" (localization bundle) of certain Hilbert modules over bounded symmetric domains of rank $r,$ giving rise to complex-analytic fibre spaces which are stratified of length $r+1.$ The fibres are described in terms…

In this paper, we study syzygies of rational homogeneous varieties. We extend Manivel's result that a $p$-th power of an ample line bundle on a flag variety satisfies Propery $(N_p)$ to many rational homogeneous varieties of type $B$, $C$,…

This is a survey of the rationality problem in invariant theory. It also contains some new results, in particular in Chapter 2 on moduli spaces of plane curves with a theta-characteristic, and a detailed account of the relation of the…

In this short note we will show that every homogeneous strictly nef vector bundle on a complex flag variety is ample. Following this, we consider whether ampleness of a bundle on an abelian variety can be tested on curves.

It is shown that the subalgebra of invariants of a free associative algebra of finite rank under a linear action of a semisimple Hopf algebra has a rational Hilbert series with respect to the usual degree function, whenever the ground field…

Let $k$ be an infinite finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$. Fix a separated scheme $X$ smooth, geometrically connected, and of finite type over $k$ and a smooth proper morphism $f:Y\rightarrow X$. The main result of this paper…

The paper concerns the affine varieties that are homogeneous with respect to a (non-standard) graduation over the group Z^m. Among the other properties it is shown that every such a variety can be embedded in its Zariski tangent space at…

We classify the Seifert fibrations of lens spaces where the base orbifold is non-orientable. This is an addendum to our earlier paper `Seifert fibrations of lens spaces'. We correct Lemma 4.1 of that paper and fill the gap in the…

Following Zagier, this work studies the rationality and divisibility of Fourier coefficients of meromorphic Hilbert modular forms associated with real quadratic fields, using theta lifts and weak Maass forms. We establish conditions where…

The existence of rational points on Kummer varieties associated to 2-coverings of abelian varieties over number fields can sometimes be proved through the variation of the Selmer group in the family of quadratic twists of the underlying…

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…

We briefly review an open conjecture about Higgs bundles that are semistable with after pulling back to any curve, and prove it in the rank 2 case. We also prove a set of inequalities holding for H-nef Higgs bundles that generalize some of…

We identify all smooth manifolds of curves for Heath-Jarrow-Morton models that are consistent with any tangential diffusion coefficient. In fact, we show that these manifolds cannot be affine but must be of linear-rational type.
