We prove that the space of holomorphic $p$-forms on the moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ of stable curves of genus $g$ with $n$ marked points vanishes for $p=14, 16, 18$ unconditionally and also for $p=20$ under a natural…

We prove a vanishing theorem for one forms on the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian varieties of genus g>1 with level structure N over fields of characteristic p different from two. This is used to compute the Picard groups of…

Let $X$ be a (real or complex) infinite dimensional linear space. We establish conditions on a homogeneous polynomial $P$ on $X$ so that, if $W$ is any finite dimensional subspace of $X$ on which $P$ vanishes, then $P$ vanishes on an…

We study the existence of asymptotically $Z$-stable (a.Z stable) bundles over polycyclic surfaces. Our choice of polynomial central charge is related to the existence of solutions of the deformed Hermitian--Yang--Mills equations, with…

We are able to improve what is known about two assumed homogeneous polynomials cutting out Macaulay's curve $C_4\subseteq P^3_k$ set-theoretically, in characteristic zero. We use local cohomology and an idea from Thoma.

We establish the general formalism for constructing metrics of Calabi-Yau (p+1)-folds in terms of that of a p-fold by adding a complex-line bundle. We present a few explicit low-lying examples. We further consider holomorphic linearization…

Using $E_8$ bundles, we construct some modular forms over $SL(2,{\bf Z})$, $\Gamma^0(2)$ and $\Gamma_0(2)$. By these modular forms, we get some new anomaly cancellation formulas of characteristic forms.

We extend Igusa's map $\rho$ to modular forms which vanish on the hyperelliptic locus of the Siegel upper half-plane. The lowest non-vanishing derivatives of such modular forms are computed with the help of the general Thomae formula, they…

Let U be a basepoint free four-dimensional subspace of the space of sections of O(2,1) on P^1 x P^1. The sections corresponding to U determine a regular map p_U: P^1 x P^1 --> P^3. We study the associated bigraded ideal I_U in k[s,t;u,v]…

Let $K$ be a field and $P=K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$. The technique of elimination by substitution is based on discovering a coherently $Z=(z_1,\dots,z_s)$-separating tuple of polynomials $(f_1,\dots,f_s)$ in an ideal $I$, i.e., on finding…

Given a p-form defined on the smooth locus of a normal variety, and a resolution of singularities, we study the problem of extending the pull-back of the p-form over the exceptional set of the desingularization. For log canonical pairs and…

On a cotangent bundle $T\sp*G$ of a Lie group $G$ one can describe the standard Liouville form $\theta$ and the symplectic form $d \theta$ in terms of the right Maurer Cartan form and the left moment mapping (of the right action of $G$ on…

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed surface, $G$ a compact Lie group, with Lie algebra $g$, and $\xi \colon P \to \Sigma$ a principal $G$-bundle. In earlier work we have shown that the moduli space $N(\xi)$ of central Yang- Mills connections, for…

We prove two criteria for direct sum decomposability of homogeneous polynomials. For a homogeneous polynomial with a non-zero discriminant, we interpret direct sum decomposability of the polynomial in terms of factorization properties of…

It is an open problem to determine the dimension of the space of homogeneous polynomials of a fixed degree vanishing at finitely many points in the projective plane to certain multiplicities. We present various aspects of this problem and a…

An explicit construction is given of a minimal free resolution of the ideal generated by all squarefree monomials of a given degree. The construction relies upon and exhibits the natural action of the symmetric group on the syzygy modules.…

This paper describes and analyzes a method for computing border bases of a zero-dimensional ideal $I$. The criterion used in the computation involves specific commutation polynomials and leads to an algorithm and an implementation extending…

We explore the properties of polynomial Lagrangians for chiral $p$-forms previously proposed by the last named author, and in particular, provide a self-contained treatment of the symmetries and equations of motion that shows a great…

We study certain complexes of differential forms, including reverse de Rham complexes, on (real or complex) Poisson manifolds, especially holomorphic log-symplectic ones. We relate these to the degeneracy divisor and rank loci of the…

In \cite{HLZ2} and \cite{HHLZ}, using $E_8$ bundles, some modular forms over $SL(2,{\bf Z})$ were constructed on $12$-dimensional manifolds and the Witten-Freed-Hopkins anomaly cancellation formula was derived by these $SL(2,Z)$ modular…
