We construct examples of surfaces of general type with $p_g=1$, $q=0$ and $K^2=6$. We use as key varieties Fano fourfolds and Calabi-Yau threefolds that are zero section of some special homogeneous vector bundle on Grassmannians. We link as…

In this addendum we generalize some results of our article "Generically split projective homogeneous varieties", Duke Math. J. 152 (2010), no. 1, 155-173. More precisely, we remove all restrictions on the characteristic of the base field…

This is the second of two papers treating faithful actions of simple algebraic groups on irreducible modules and on the associated Grassmannian varieties; in the first paper we considered the module itself and its projective space, while…

The aim of this paper is to construct an immersion of the Drinfeld moduli schemes in a finite product of infinite Grassmannians, such that they will be locally closed subschemes of these Grassmannians which represent a kind of flag…

Working over imperfect fields, we give a comprehensive classification of genus-one curves that are regular but not geometrically regular, extending the known case of geometrically reduced curves. The description is given intrinsically, in…

We obtain mirror formulas for the genus 1 Gromov-Witten invariants of projective Calabi-Yau complete intersections. We follow the approach previously used for projective hypersurfaces by extending the scope of its algebraic results; there…

We prove that small deformations of a projective variety of general type are also projective varieties of general type, with the same plurigenera. Version 2: small changes in first half. Improved version of the second half is now a separate…

In this note we describe a unique linear embedding of a prime Fano 4-fold F of genus 10 into the Grassmannian G(3,6). We use this to construct some moduli spaces of bundles on linear sections of F. In particular the moduli space of bundles…

After a historical discussion of classical uniformisation results for Riemann surfaces, of problems appearing in higher dimensions, and of uniformisation results for projective manifolds with trivial or ample canonical bundle, we introduce…

We consider the isomonodromic deformations of irregular-singular connections defined on principal bundles over complex curves: for any complex reductive structure group G, and any polar divisor; allowing for a twisted/ramified formal normal…

We study flat vector bundles over complex parallelizable manifolds.

Let $\Fl_\lambda$ be a generalized flag variety of a simple Lie group $G$ embedded into the projectivization of an irreducible $G$-module $V_\lambda$. We define a flat degeneration $\Fl_\lambda^a$, which is a ${\mathbb G}^M_a$ variety.…

We prove in type A a conjecture which describes the ideal of transversal slices to spherical Schubert varieties in the affine Grassmannian. As a corollary, we prove a modular description (due to Finkelberg-Mirkovi\'c) of the spherical…

In this paper we investigate the exactness of the Grassmannian BGG complexes introduced in a previous work (arXiv:1211.2486), and obtain some inequalities between some Hodge numbers of some irregular varieties. In particular, we obtain…

In this thesis, we investigate various integral submodels and generalize them. In part I, we study the submodel of the nonlinear $\mathbf{C}P^1$-model and the related submodels in $(1+2)$ dimensions. In part II, we construct integrable…

Let V_0 and V_1 be complex vector bundles over a space X. We use the theory of divisors on formal groups to give obstructions in generalised cohomology that vanish when V_0 and V_1 can be embedded in a bundle U in such a way that V_0\cap…

Let A be an abelian variety over a number field k. We show that weak approximation holds in the Weil-Ch\^atelet group of A/k but that it may fail when one restricts to the n-torsion subgroup. This failure is however relatively mild; we show…

We solve a conjecture of Morgan and Szabo (Embedded genus 2 surfaces in four-manifolds, Preprint) about the relationship of the basic classes of two four-manifolds $X_i$ of simple type with $b_1=0$, $b^+>1$, such that there are embedded…

We establish properties concerning the distribution of poles of Pad e approximants, which are generic in Baire category sense. We also investigate Pad e universal series, an analog of classical universal series, where Taylor partial sums…

We use rudiments of the Seiberg-Witten gluing theory for trivial circle bundles over a Riemann surface to relate de Seiberg-Witten basic classes of two $4$-manifolds containing Riemann surfaces of the same genus and self-intersection zero…
