We associate to any complete spherical variety $X$ a certain nonnegative rational number $\wp(X)$, which we conjecture to satisfy the inequality $\wp(X) \le \operatorname{dim} X - \operatorname{rank} X$ with equality holding if and only if…

We prove the generalised Mukai conjecture for $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial spherical Fano varieties. In this case, a stronger inequality holds featuring an extra term - the minimum absolute complexity of a log Calabi-Yau pair - which measures how…

O'Grady's generalized Franchetta conjecture asks whether any codimension two cycle on the universal polarized K3 surface restricts to a multiple of the Beauville--Voisin class on a given K3 surface. We apply Mukai's program for genus 11…

We prove some general results on syzygies of smooth projective varieties with numerically trivial canonical line bundle. This allows to confirm several cases of Mukai's syzygies conjecture for finite quotients of abelian varieties in any…

The Generalized Smale Conjecture asserts that if M is a closed 3-manifold with constant positive curvature, then the inclusion of the group of isometries into the group of diffeomorphisms is a homotopy equivalence. For the 3-sphere, this…

For a log Fano manifold (X, D) with D\neq 0 and with the log Fano pseudoindex \geq 2, we prove that the restriction homomorphism Pic(X)\to Pic(D_1) of Picard groups is injective for any irreducible component D_1\subset D.The strategy of our…

In this paper we propose a generalization of the Kontsevich--Soibelman conjecture on the degeneration of Hochschild-to-cyclic spectral sequence for smooth and compact DG category. Our conjecture states identical vanishing of a certain map…

Let X be a Fano variety of dimension n, pseudoindex i_X and Picard number \rho_X. A generalization of a conjecture of Mukai says that \rho_X(i_X-1)\le n. We prove that the conjecture holds if: a) X has pseudoindex i_X \ge \frac{n+3}{3} and…

Using the algebraic criterion proved by Bandiera, Manetti and Meazzini, we show the formality conjecture for universally gluable objects with linearly reductive automorphism groups in the bounded derived category of a K3 surface. As an…

We compute the subgroup of the monodromy group of a generalized Kummer variety associated to equivalences of derived categories of abelian surfaces. The result was previously announced in arXiv:1201.0031. Mongardi showed that the subgroup…

In this paper, we propose a conjectural multiplicity formula for general spherical varieties. For all the cases where a multiplicity formula has been proved, including Whittaker model, Gan-Gross-Prasad model, Ginzburg-Rallis model, Galois…

A general framework for the reduction of the equations defining classes of spherical varieties to (maybe infinite dimensional) grassmannians is proposed. This is applied to model varieties of type A, B and C; in particular a standard…

We prove a conjecture of L.Bonavero, C. Casagrande, O. Debarre and S. Druel, on the pseudo-index of smooth Fano varieties, in the special case of horospherical varieties.

We construct the moduli of twisted sheaves on a projective variety. Then we generalize known results on the moduli space of usual sheaves on a K3 surface to the twisted case. Thus we consider the non-emptyness, the deformation type and the…

The Isomorphism Conjecture is a conceptional approach towards a calculation of the algebraic K-theory of a group ring RG, where G is an infinite group. In this paper we prove the conjecture in dimensions n<2 for fundamental groups of closed…

In this paper, we prove the holomorphic convexity of the covering of a complex projective {normal} variety $X$, which corresponds to the intersection of kernels of reductive representations $\rho:\pi_1(X)\to {\rm GL}_{N}(\mathbb{C})$,…

We study algebraic cycles on complex Gushel-Mukai (GM) varieties. We prove the generalised Hodge conjecture, the (motivated) Mumford-Tate conjecture, and the generalised Tate conjecture for all GM varieties. We compute all integral Chow…

We prove a conjecture of Casselman and Shahidi stating that the unique irreducible generic subquotient of a standard module is necessarily a subrepresentation for a large class of connected quasi-split reductive groups, in particular for…

This note is an answer to a problem proposed by Ranestad and Iliev. We prove that the projection of general nodal linear sections of suitable dimension of the Mukai varieties $M_g$ are linear sections of $M_{g-1}$.

We prove a conjecture of Frenkel, Gaitsgory, Kazhdan and Vilonen, related to Fourier coefficients of spherical perverse sheaves on the affine Grassmannian associated to a a split reductive group. Our proof is an extension of the proof given…
