We prove that the Deligne-Lusztig varieties associated to elements of the Weyl group which are of minimal length in their twisted class are affine. Our proof differs from the proof of He and Orlik-Rapoport and it is inspired by the case of…
Modular and quasimodular solutions of specific second order differential equation in the upper-half plane which originates from a study of supersingular j-invariants are given explicitly. A characterization of the differential equation is…
The space of smooth curves admits a beautiful compactification by the moduli space of Deligne-Mumford stable curves. In this paper, we undertake a systematic investigation of alternate modular compactifications of the space of smooth…
In this thesis, we study moduli in compactifications of ten-dimensional heterotic supergravity. We consider supersymmetric compactifications to four-dimensional maximally symmetric space, commonly referred to as the Strominger system. The…
Given a smooth algebraic variety X with an action of a connected reductive linear algebraic group G, and an equivariant D-module M, we study the G-decompositions of the associated V-, Hodge, and weight filtrations. If M is the localization…
We prove that invariant subbundles of the Kontsevich-Zorich cocycle respect the Hodge structure. In particular, we establish a version of Deligne semisimplicity in this context. This implies that invariant subbundles must vary polynomially…
Let $G=H\ltimes K$ denote a semidirect product Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=\mathfrak h \oplus \mathfrak k$, where $\mathfrak k$ is an ideal and $\mathfrak h$ is a subalgebra of the same dimension as $\mathfrak k$. There exist…
Schubert varieties of hyperplane arrangements, also known as matroid Schubert varieties, play an essential role in the proof of the Dowling-Wilson conjecture and in Kazhdan-Lusztig theory for matroids. We study these varieties as…
In view of applications to the construction of moduli spaces of objects in algebraic supergeometry, we start a systematic study of stacks in that context. After defining a superstack as a stack over the \'etale site of superschemes, we…
We establish a "matrix simultaneous diagonalization theorem" for disconnected reductive groups which relaxes both the semisimplicity condition and the commutativity condition. As an application, we prove the following basic results…
In this paper we prove a direct geometric relation between Deligne--Lusztig varieties and Springer fibres in type $\mathsf{A}$: For any rational unipotent element, the Springer fibre cuts out a unique component of a specific…
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 investigate the notions of \emph{localization} and \emph{filtration} in the context of extended affine Lie algebras. Our primary objective is to develop a localization theory that facilitates the construction of meaningful local…
We give conceptual and combinatorial criteria for the normality and Cohen--Macaulayness of unions of Ekedahl--Oort strata in the special fiber of abelian type Shimura varieties. For unions of two strata, one of the two having codimension…
We enlarge the class of Rapoport-Zink spaces of Hodge type by modifying the centers of the associated $p$-adic reductive groups. These such-obtained Rapoport-Zink spaces are called of abelian type. The class of Rapoport-Zink spaces of…
Let $X\to Y^0$ be an abelian prime-to-$p$ Galois covering of smooth schemes over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $Y$ be a smooth compactification of $Y^0$ such that $Y-Y^0$ is a normal crossings divisor on $Y$. We describe…
In this paper we study the slope stratification on the good reduction of the type C family Shimura varieties. We show that there is an open dense subset $U$ of the moduli space such that any point in $U$ can be deformed to a point with a…
In this paper, we explore natural connections among the representations of the extended affine Lie algebra $\widehat{sl_N}(\mathbb{C}_q)$ with $\mathbb{C}_q=\mathbb{C}_q[t_0^{\pm1},t_1^{\pm1}]$ an irrational quantum 2-torus, the simple…
The theories of $\pi$-points and modules of constant Jordan type have been a topic of much recent interest in the field of finite group scheme representation theory. These theories allow for a finite group scheme module $M$ to be restricted…
The aim of this note is a combinatorial description of a category of $D$-modules over an affine space, smooth along the stratification defined by an arrangement of hyperplanes. These $D$-modules are assumed to satisfy certain non-resonance…
