We give a method to construct stable vector bundles whose rank divides the degree over curves of genus bigger than one. The method complements the one given by Newstead. Finally, we make some systematic remarks and observations in…

Using representations of vertex operator algebras, we describe the line bundles on a wide range of contractions of $\overline{\rm{M}}_{0,n}$, the moduli space of stable $n$-pointed rational curves, by proving a stronger version of the…

In this note we prove that the Torelli, Prym and Spin-Torelli morphisms, as well as covering maps between moduli stacks of projective curves can not be deformed. The proofs use properties of the Fujita decomposition of the Hodge bundle of…

We develop a general framework for quantum field theory on noncommutative spaces, i.e., spaces with quantum group symmetry. We use the path integral approach to obtain expressions for $n$-point functions. Perturbation theory leads us to…

Given a quasi-projective scheme M over complex numbers equipped with a perfect obstruction theory and a morphism to a nonsingular quasi-projective variety B, we show it is possible to find an affine bundle M'/ M that admits a perfect…

We prove an analogue of the Madsen-Weiss theorem for high dimensional manifolds. For example, we explicitly describe the ring of characteristic classes of smooth fibre bundles whose fibres are connected sums of g copies of S^n x S^n, in the…

We prove a version of quantum geometric Langlands conjecture in characteristic $p$. Namely, we construct an equivalence of certain localizations of derived categories of twisted crystalline $\mathcal D$-modules on the stack of rank $N$…

We generalise Fl\o{}ystad's theorem on the existence of monads on the projective space to a larger set of projective varieties. We consider a variety $X$, a line bundle $L$ on $X$, and a base-point-free linear system of sections of $L$…

We propose a three-step program for the classification of stable rank 2 bundles on the projective space $\mathbb{P}^3$ inspired by an article by Hartshorne and Rao. While this classification program has been successfully completed for…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a parahoric group scheme on $X$ as in \cite{pr}. Via the principle of Hecke correspondences, we set-up relationships between the cohomology of…

Here we define the concept of $L$-regularity for coherent sheaves on the Grassmannian G(1,4) as a generalization of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity on ${\bf{P}^n}$. In this setting we prove analogs of some classical properties. We use our…

Let $E$ be a vector bundle of rank $r\geq 2$ on a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $g \geq 2$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ of arbitrary characteristic. For any integer with $1\le k\le r-1$ we define $${\se}_k(E):=k\deg…

We desribe vector bundles over a class of noncommutative curves, namely, over noncommutative nodal curves of string type and of almost string type. We also prove that in other cases the classification of vector bundles over a noncommutative…

We restate the semistable reduction theorem from geometric invariant theory in the context of spaces of morphisms on $\mathbb{P}^{n}$. For every complete curve $C$ downstairs, we get a $\mathbb{P}^{n}$-bundle on an abstract curve $D$…

In his PhD thesis, Abrams proved that, for a natural number n and a graph G with at least n vertices, the n-strand configuration space of G deformation retracts to a compact subspace, the discretized n-strand configuration space, provided G…

We discuss a conjecture made by Alexander Polishchuk and David Kazhdan at the 2022 ICM about a variety naturally attached to any stable vector bundle of rank 2 and degree $2g- 1$ on a smooth projective complex curve of genus $g$.

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g\ge 3$ and $M_0$ be the moduli space of rank 2 semistable bundles over $X$ with trivial determinant. There are three desingularizations of this singular moduli space constructed by…

We prove that braid group representations associated to braided fusion categories and mapping class group representations associated to modular fusion categories are always semisimple. The proof relies on the theory of extensions in…

We show the Frobenius pullback of a general semi-stable vector bundle in the moduli space of vector bundles with fixed rank and degree is still semi-stable by deformation trick. We then present several applications of the main theorem.

This note aims to clarify the deep relationship between birational modifications of a variety and semiorthogonal decompositions of its derived category of coherent sheaves. The result is a conjecture on the existence and properties of…
