Any smooth projective variety contains many complete intersection subvarieties with ample cotangent bundles, of each dimension up to half its own dimension.

We prove several related results on the low-degree Hodge numbers of proper smooth rigid analytic varieties over non-archimedean fields. Our arguments rely on known structure theorems for the relevant Picard varieties, together with recent…

Twisted Alexander invariants of knots are well-defined up to multiplication of units. We get rid of this multiplicative ambiguity via a combinatorial method and define normalized twisted Alexander invariants. We then show that the…

We define a birational version of the stability of cotangent sheaves for complex projective manifolds, and more generally for smooth orbifolds. We then show, using standard conjectures in birational classification, that these cotangent…

We study flat vector bundles over complex parallelizable manifolds.

We explain the relationship between various characteristic classes for smooth manifold bundles known as ``higher torsion'' classes. We isolate two fundamental properties that these cohomology classes may or may not have: additivity and…

The description of irreducible representations of a group G can be seen as a question in harmonic analysis; namely, decomposing a suitable space of functions on G into irreducibles for the action of G x G by left and right multiplication.…

Given a singular projective variety in some projective space, we characterize the smooth curves contracted by the Gauss map in terms of normal bundles. As a consequence, we show that if the variety is normal, then a contracted line always…

The moduli space of slope-stable vector bundles on a normal projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geq 0$ is stratified with respect to the decomposition type. On a smooth projective curve of genus at…

We study the positivity of an Ulrich vector bundle defined with respect to a globally generated ample line bundle. First we prove a generalization of a Lopez theorem on the first Chern class and the bigness of an Ulrich bundle. Then, under…

In this article, we give numerical restrictions on the Chern classes of Ulrich bundles on higher-dimensional manifolds, which are inspired by the results of Casnati in the case of surfaces. As a by-product, we prove that the only projective…

We prove the existence of many non-trivial characteristic classes of smooth oriented bundles with fibre a product $ S^{n}\times S^{n} $ of odd-dimensional spheres. We do so by proving injectivity of the map from the ring of rational…

In this paper, we prove the existence of an Enriques surface with a polarization of degree four with an Ulrich bundle of rank one. As a consequence, we prove that general polarized Enriques surfaces of degree four, with the same numerical…

In this paper we show that certain Shimura varieties, uniformized by the product of complex unit balls, can be p-adically uniformized by the product (of equivariant coverings) of Drinfeld upper half-spaces. We also extend a p-adic…

Smooth complex surfaces polarized with an ample and globally generated line bundle of degree three and four, such that the adjoint bundle is not globally generated, are considered. Scrolls of a vector bundle over a smooth curve are shown to…

We introduce a theory of uniform K-stability for big line bundles on smooth projective varieties. This extends the existing theory both for varieties with ample line bundles, and for varieties with big anticanonical class. Our main result…

In this article, we provide an overview of a one-to-one correspondence between representations of the generalized Clifford algebra $C_f$ of a ternary cubic form $f$ and certain vector bundles (called Ulrich bundles) on a cubic surface $X$.…

A generalized Euler sequence over a complete normal variety X is the unique extension of the trivial bundle V \otimes O_X by the sheaf of differentials \Omega_X, given by the inclusion of a linear space V in Ext^1(O_X,\Omega_X). For…

We give a new method for calculating the cohomology of the normal bundles over rational varieties which are smooth projections of Veronese embeddings. The method can be used also when the projections are not smooth, in this case it provides…

We prove that on $X_n$, the plane blown--up at $n$ general points, there are Ulrich line bundles with respect to a line bundle corresponding to curves of degree $m$ passing simply through the $n$ blown--up points, with $m\leq 2\sqrt{n}$ and…
