We examine conditions under which there exists a non-constant family of Galois branched covers of curves over an algebraically closed field $k$ of fixed degree and fixed ramification locus, under a notion of equivalence derived from…

Roughly speaking, a conic bundle is a surface, fibered over a curve, such that the fibers are conics (not necessarily smooth). We define stability for conic bundles and construct a moduli space. We prove that (after fixing some invariants)…

The first goal of the article is to solve several fundamental problems in the theory of holomorphic bundles over non-algebraic manifolds: For instance we prove that stability and semi-stability are Zariski open properties in families when…

We study Galois rational maps between smooth projective varieties with trivial canonical bundle, with a particular interest in the case where the codomain is Hyper-K\"ahler. We obtain results about the birational geometry and the Galois…

If the $\ell$-adic cohomology of a projective smooth variety, defined over a $\frak{p}$-adic field $K$ with finite residue field $k$, is supported in codimension $\ge 1$, then any model over the ring of integers of $K$ has a $k$-rational…

Let $X$ be a rational elliptic surface with elliptic fibration $\pi:X\to\Bbb{P}^1$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of any characteristic. Given a conic bundle $\varphi:X\to\Bbb{P}^1$ we use numerical arguments to classify all…

We study the moduli spaces which classify smooth surfaces along with a complex line bundle. There are homological stability and Madsen--Weiss type results for these spaces (mostly due to Cohen and Madsen), and we discuss the cohomological…

We review Hopf-Galois extensions, in particular faithfully flat ones, accepted to be the noncommutative algebraic dual of a principal bundle. We also make a short digression into how quantum groups relate to Hopf-Galois extensions. Several…

The aim of the present paper is to prove the rationality of the universal family of polarized $ K3 $ surfaces of degree 14. This is achieved by identifying it with the moduli space of cubic fourfolds plus the data of a quartic scroll. The…

In this paper we provide the complete classification of $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundles over smooth projective rational surfaces whose neutral component of the automorphism group is maximal. Our results hold over any algebraically closed field of…

Let X be a geometrically connected smooth projective curve of genus one, defined over the field of real numbers, such that X does not have any real points. We classify the isomorphism classes of all stable real algebraic vector bundles over…

We show that the birationality class of a quadric surface bundle over $\mathbb{P}^2$ is determined by its associated cokernel sheaves. As an application, we discuss stable-rationality of very general quadric bundles over $\mathbb{P}^2$ with…

We define Hecke transformation for orthogonal bundles over a compact Riemann surface. Using the cycles on a moduli space of orthogonal bundles given by Hecke transformations, we prove that the projectivized Picard bundle on the moduli space…

We classify all positive integers n and r such that (stably) non-rational complex r-fold quadric bundles over rational n-folds exist. We show in particular that for any n and r, a wide class of smooth r-fold quadric bundles over projective…

Commutative K-theory, a cohomology theory built from spaces of commuting matrices, has been explored in recent work of Adem, G\'{o}mez, Gritschacher, Lind, and Tillman. In this article, we use unstable methods to construct explicit…

The moduli space of parabolic bundles with fixed determinant over a smooth curve of genus greater than one is proved to be rational whenever one of the multiplicities associated to the quasi-parabolic structure is equal to one. It follows…

We investigate the behaviour of Bridgeland stability conditions under change of base field with particular focus on the case of finite Galois extensions. In particular, we prove that for a variety X over a field K and a finite Galois…

We introduce a criterion on the presentation of finitely presented pro-$p$ groups which allows us to compute their cohomology groups and infer quotients of mild groups of cohomological dimension strictly larger than two, from (non-free)…

Let X be an irreducible smooth projective curve, of genus at least two, over an algebraically closed field k. Let $\mathcal{M}^d_G$ denote the moduli stack of principal G-bundles over X of fixed topological type $d \in \pi_1(G)$, where G is…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$, and let $G$ be a simple simply-connected algebraic group over $k$ that is defined and split over the prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$. In this paper we investigate situations…
