We provide explicit descriptions of the generic members of Hassett's divisors $\mathcal C_d$ for relevant $18\leq d\leq 38$ and for $d=44$. In doing so, we prove that $\mathcal C_d$ is unirational for $18\leq d\leq 38,d=44$. As a corollary,…

Sheaves on non-reduced curves can appear in moduli space of 1-dimensional semistable sheaves over a surface, and moduli space of Higgs bundles as well. We estimate the dimension of the stack $\mathbf{M}_{X}(nC,\chi)$ of pure sheaves…

We show the properness of the moduli stack of stable surfaces over $\mathbb{Z}[1/30]$, assuming the locally-stable reduction conjecture for stable surfaces. This relies on a local Kawamata--Viehweg vanishing theorem for for 3-dimensional…

The moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{g}$ of compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ has orbifold structure, and the set of singular points of such orbifold is the \textit{branch locus} $\mathcal{B}_{g}$. Given a prime number $p \ge 7$,…

We prove the uniqueness of crepant resolutions for some quotient singularities and for some nilpotent orbits. The finiteness of non-isomorphic symplectic resolutions for 4-dimenensional symplectic singularities is proved. We also give an…

We give explicit, highly symmetric equations for the versal deformation of the singularity $L_{n+1}^n$ consisting of n+1 lines through the origin in n-dimensional affine space in generic position. These make evident that the base space of…

For an abelian or a projective K3 surface $X$ over an algebraically closed field $k$, consider the moduli space $\splcpx_{X/k}\uet$ of the objects $E$ in $D^b(\mathrm{Coh}(X))$ satisfying $\Ext^{-1}_X(E,E)=0$ and $\Hom(E,E)\cong k$. Then we…

We extend Kisin's results on the structure of characteristic $0$ Galois deformation rings to deformation rings of Galois representations valued in arbitrary connected reductive groups $G$. In particular, we show that such Galois deformation…

Let X be a projective irreducible smooth algebraic variety. A "fine moduli space" of sheaves on X is a family F of coherent sheaves on X parametrized by an integral variety M such that : F is flat on M; for all distinct points x, y of M the…

We show that a complete embedded maximal surface in the 3-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space $L^3$ with a finite number of singularities is, up to a Lorentzian isometry, an entire graph over any spacelike plane asymptotic to a vertical…

In preprint alg-geom/9708009 we have constructed a (ten-dimensional) symplectic desingularization of the moduli space of rank-two torsion-free semistable sheaves on a $K3$, with trivial determinant and second Chern class equal to 4. In the…

We survey recent advances in the theory of moduli spaces of stable sheaves on hyperk\"ahler manifolds of dimension greater than $2$. We start by recalling the well-known theory in dimension $2$, i.e.~for $K3$ surfaces, emphasizing the…

Let $M(d,r)$ be the moduli space of semistable sheaves of rank 0, Euler characteristic $r$ and first Chern class $dH (d>0)$, with $H$ the hyperplane class in $\mathbb{P}^2$. By previous work, we gave an explicit description of the class…

We study the moduli stacks of slope-semistable torsion-free coherent sheaves that admit reflexive, respectively locally free, Seshadri graduations on a smooth projective variety. We show that they are open in the stack of coherent sheaves…

The moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties with real structure and with level $N=4m$ structure (with $m \ge 1$) is shown to coincide with the set of real points of a quasi-projective algebraic variety defined over $\mathbb…

We show that the moduli stacks of semistable sheaves on smooth projective varieties are analytic locally on their coarse moduli spaces described in terms of representations of the associated Ext-quivers with convergent relations. When the…

In this paper, we consider a generalization of the McKay correspondence in positive characteristic regarding the Euler characteristic of crepant resolutions of quotient singularities given by finite subgroups of the special linear group. As…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Fix integers $n$ and $b$ with $n\geq 3$ and $1\leq b\leq n-1.$ Let $T^d_k$ be the moduli space of hypersurfaces $[F]$ in $\mathbb{P}^n_k$ of degree $l$ whose singular locus contains a subscheme of…

We study the singularities of the moduli space of degree $e$ maps from smooth genus $g$ curves to an arbitrary smooth hypersurface of low degree. For $e$ large compared to $g$, we show that these moduli spaces have at worst terminal…

We give a proof of Mukai's Theorem on the existence of certain exceptional vector bundles on prime Fano threefolds. To our knowledge this is the first complete proof in the literature. The result is essential for Mukai's biregular…
