We define a certain Hecke theoretic notion of family of smooth admissible representations of $GL_n(F)$, or of products of such groups, where $F$ is a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero. While this notion of family is rather…
Using the technique of categorical absorption of singularities we prove that the nontrivial components of the derived categories of del Pezzo threefolds of degree $d \in \{2,3,4,5\}$ and crepant categorical resolutions of the nontrivial…
This paper is devoted to the study of a certain class of principal bundles on del Pezzo surfaces, which were introduced and studied by Friedman and Morgan in \cite{FMdP}: The two authors showed that there exists a unique principal bundle…
The existence is proved of two new families of locally Cohen-Macaulay sextic threefolds in $\mathbb{P}^5$, which are not quadratically normal. These threefolds arise naturally in the realm of first order congruences of lines as focal loci…
K{\"u}chle classified the Fano fourfolds that can be obtained as zero loci of global sections of homogeneous vector bundles on Grassmannians. Surprisingly, his classification exhibits two families of fourfolds with the same discrete…
We show exceptionality of certain families of non-quasismooth weighted hypersurfaces. In particular these admit K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. Our examples are produced by the monomials generating the complex deformations of orbifolds whose…
We obtain a formula for the number of genus one curves with a variable complex structure of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This is done using Getzler's…
References to the works of Iliev-Ranestad and Kuznetsov added. ----- In a first part we detail the construction, on a general Fano 4-fold of genus 9, of a canonical set of four stable vector bundles of rank 2, and prove that they are rigid.…
The Painleve-IV equation has three families of rational solutions generated by the generalized Hermite polynomials. Each family is indexed by two positive integers m and n. These functions have applications to nonlinear wave equations,…
Rational solutions of the inhomogeneous Painleve-II equation and of a related coupled Painleve-II system have recently arisen in studies of fluid vortices and of the sine-Gordon equation. For the sine-Gordon application in particular it is…
We determine the rationality of very general quasismooth Fano 3-fold weighted hypersurfaces completely and determine the stable rationality of them except for cubic 3-folds. More precisely we prove that (i) very general Fano 3-fold weighted…
We prove the existence and uniqueness of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on Q-Fano varieties with log terminal singularities (and more generally on log Fano pairs) whose Mabuchi functional is proper. We study analogues of the works of Perelman on…
We study the orchard problem on cubic surfaces. We classify possibly reducible cubic surfaces $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^3(\C)$ with smooth components on which there exist families of finite sets (of unbounded size) with quadratically many…
The paper is joined with arXiv:0911.5428 and improved. We prove that Landau-Ginzburg models for all 17 smooth Fano threefolds with Picard rank 1 can be represented as Laurent polynomials in 3 variables exhibiting them case by case. We check…
In this paper we address Fano foliations on complex projective varieties. These are foliations whose anti-canonical class is ample. We focus our attention on a special class of Fano foliations, namely del Pezzo foliations on complex…
Let $X$ be a del Pezzo surface of degree $5$ defined over a field $F$. A theorem of Yu. I. Manin and P. Swinnerton-Dyer asserts that every Del Pezzo surface of degree $5$ is rational. In this paper we generalize this result as follows.…
We prove the $K$-polystability of all smooth complex Fano threefolds admitting an effective action of $\text{SL}_2$ but not of a 2-torus or 3-torus. In particular, the existence of K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics on varieties in the families…
In 1987, the $\alpha$-invariant theorem gave a fundamental criterion for existence of Kahler-Einstein metrics on smooth Fano manifolds. In 2012, Odaka-Sano extended the framework to $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties in terms of K-stability, and…
We prove the equisingular rigidity of the singular Hirzebruch-Kummer coverings $X(n, \mathcal{L})$ of the projective plane branched on line configurations $\mathcal{L}$, satisfying some technical condition. In the case, $\mathcal{L}$ = the…
By the description due to Mukai and Iliev, a smooth prime Fano threefold X of genus 9 is associated to a surface P(V), ruled over a smooth plane quartic Gamma. We use Kuznetsov's integral functor to study rank-2 stable sheaves on X with odd…
