We suggest to look at formal sentences describing complex algebraic varieties together with their universal covers as topological invariants. We prove that for abelian varieties and Shimura varieties this is indeed a complete invariant,…
The purpose of this talk is to present an (apparently) new way to look at the intersection complex of a singular variety over a finite field, or, more generally, at the intermediate extension functor on pure perverse sheaves, and an…
We prove that the generic part of the mod l cohomology of Shimura varieties associated to quasi-split unitary groups of even dimension is concentrated above the middle degree, extending our previous work to a non-compact case. The result…
In this paper, we survey recent works on the structure of the mapping class groups of surfaces mainly from the point of view of topology. We then discuss several possible directions for future research. These include the relation between…
We present a conjecture on the geometry of the Hodge locus of a (graded polarizable, admissible) variation of mixed Hodge structure over a complex smooth quasi-projective base, generalizing to this context the Zilber-Pink Conjecture for…
In this paper, we will use investigate the existence of compactifications with particular convergence properties - pseudoradial, radial, sequential and Fr\'echet-Urysohn - through the use of spoke systems.
We define the tautological ring as the subring of the Chow ring of a Shimura variety generated by all Chern classes of all automorphic bundles. We explain its structure for the special fiber of a good reduction of a Shimura variety of Hodge…
In this note, we discuss several forms of the Eichler-Shimura relation for the compactly supported cohomology of local Shimura varieties, using the work of Fargues-Scholze.
We develop a bubble tree construction and prove compactness results for $W^{2,2}$ branched conformal immersions of closed Riemann surfaces, with varying conformal structures whose limit may degenerate, in a compact Riemannian manifold with…
In this paper we recall the construction and basic properties of complex Shimura varieties and show that these properties actually characterize them. This characterization immediately implies the explicit form of Kazhdan's theorem on the…
The goal of our work is to construct a class of morphisms between two canonical line bundles on integral models of PEL Shimura varieties via Kodaira--Spencer maps, and explicitly compute such morphisms and their effects on the canonical…
We describe recent work on the construction of well-behaved arithmetic models for large classes of Shimura varieties and report on progress in the study of these models.
We compute the level groups associated with mixed Shimura varieties that appear at the boundaries of compactifications of Shimura varieties and show that the boundaries of minimal compactifications of Pappas-Rapoport integral models are…
In this paper, we construct canonical extensions of principal $\mathcal{G}^c$- (and $M^c$-)bundles on toroidal compactifications of integral canonical models of abelian-type Shimura varieties with hyperspecial levels.
In this article, we study the variation of the Gieseker and Uhlenbeck compactifications of the moduli spaces of Mumford-Takemoto stable vector bundles of rank 2 by changing polarizations. Some {\it canonical} rational morphisms among the…
We describe explicitly the geometric compactifications, obtained by adding slc surfaces $X$ with ample canonical class, for two connected components in the moduli space of surfaces of general type: Campedelli surfaces with $\pi_1(X)=\mathbb…
This expository article is an expanded version of talks given at the "Current Developments in Mathematics, 2002" conference. It gives an introduction to the (generalized) conjecture of Rapoport and Goresky-MacPherson which identifies the…
Given a number field $F$ with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_{F}$, one can associate to any torsion free subgroup of $\operatorname{SL}(2,\mathcal{O}_{F})$ of finite index a complete Riemannian manifold of finite volume with fibered cusp…
We present an overview of recent results in locally conformally K\"ahler geometry, with focus on the topological properties which obstruct the existence of such structures on compact manifolds.
This article is a survey of recent work of the author, together with Markus Banagl, Eric Leichtnam, Rafe Mazzeo, and Paolo Piazza, on the Hodge theory of stratified spaces. We discuss how to resolve a Thom-Mather stratified space to a…
