We establish the Noether inequality \[\textrm{Vol}(X)\geq \frac{4}{3}p_g(X)-\frac{10}{3}\] for all projective $3$-folds $X$ of general type with geometric genus $5\leq p_g(X)\leq 10$ where $\textrm{Vol}(X)$ is the canonical volume. This…

This short note is the extended abstract of a seminar I have delivered on several occasions over the past few months on canonical threefolds whose canonical volume is "close" to the lower bound 4/3p_g - 10/3. This is a project in…

We introduce the notion of a simple fibration in $(1,2)$-surfaces. That is, a hypersurface inside a certain weighted projective space bundle over a curve such that the general fibre is a minimal surface of general type with $p_g=2$ and…

This article introduces a universal moduli space for the set whose archetypal element is a pair that consists of a metric and second fundamental form from a compact, oriented, positive genus minimal surface in some hyperbolic 3-manifold.…

1) We give a 3-dimensional analogue of M. Noether's inequality for canonically polarized threefolds: $K^3\ge 2(2p_g-5)/3$. This inequality is sharp by known examples of M. Kobayashi. 2) Given a minimal 3-fold $X$ of general type with…

It is known that the optimal Noether inequality $\mathrm{vol}(X) \ge \frac{4}{3}p_g(X) - \frac{10}{3}$ holds for every $3$-fold $X$ of general type with $p_g(X) \ge 11$. In this paper, we give a complete classification of $3$-folds $X$ of…

This paper concerns the construction of minimal varieties with small canonical volumes. The first part devotes to establishing an effective nefness criterion for the canonical divisor of a weighted blow-up over a weighted hypersurface, from…

In this paper, we study the Gieseker moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{1,1}^{4,3}$ of minimal surfaces with $p_g=q=1, K^2=4$ and genus 3 Albanese fibration. Under the assumption that direct image of the canonical sheaf under the Albanese map is…

We study the moduli space of minimal surfaces of general type with $K_S^2 = 1$ and $p_g = 2$ and show that it is irreducible, has dimension $28$ and admits a compactification which is unirational.

Let V be a smooth projective 3-fold of general type. Denote by $K^3$, a rational number, the self-intersection of the canonical sheaf of any minimal model of V. One defines $K^3$ as the canonical volume of $V$. Assume $p_g\ge 2$. We show…

In this manuscript we sharpen the lower bound on the codimension of the irreducible components of the Noether-Lefschetz locus of surfaces in projective toric threefolds given in [BG17]. We also provide a simpler proof of Theorem 4.11 in…

We study certain moduli spaces of stable vector bundles of rank two on cubic and quartic threefolds. In many cases under consideration, it turns out that the moduli space is complete and irreducible and a general member has vanishing…

We consider minimal surfaces of general type with $p_g = 2$, $q = 1$ and $K^2 = 5$. We provide a stratification of the corresponding moduli space and we give some bounds for the number and the dimensions of its irreducible components.

We determine the minimal possible volume of a projective log canonical surface of general type with prescribed positive geometric genus. As applications, we provide effecitive Noether type inequalities for log canonical threefolds and…

Generalizing the well-known Shafarevich hyperbolicity conjecture, it has been conjectured by Viehweg that a quasi-projective manifold that admits a generically finite morphism to the moduli stack of canonically polarized varieties is…

In this paper, we prove that the moduli space $\overline{M}_{X}(\nu)$ of $H$-Gieseker semistable sheaves on a smooth cubic threefold $X$ with Chern character $\nu=(4,-H,-\frac{5}{6}H^{2},\frac{1}{6}H^{3})$ is non-empty, smooth and…

We show that the compactification of the moduli space of $n-$nodal curves of genus g, i.e. $\mathcal{N}_{g,n}:= \mathcal{M}_{g,2n} /G$, with $G:=(\mathbb{Z}_2)^n \rtimes S_n$, is of general type for $g \geq 24$, for all $n \in \mathbb{N}$.…

A holomorphic triple over a compact Riemann surface consists of two holomorphic vector bundles and a holomorphic map between them. After fixing the topological types of the bundles and a real parameter, there exist moduli spaces of stable…

We prove that the moduli space of all noncongruent linearly full totally real flat minimal immersions from the complex plane C into HP^3 that do not lie in CP^3 has three components, each of which is a manifold of real dimension 6. As an…

In this paper we survey a number of recent results concerning the existence and moduli spaces of solutions of various geometric problems on noncompact manifolds. The three problems which we discuss in detail are: I. Complete properly…
