We show that the moduli space of ordered 5 points on the projective line is isomorphic to an arithmetic quotient of a complex ball by using the theory of periods of K3 surfaces. We also discuss a relation between our uniformization and the…

In this paper we study the classification of del Pezzo surfaces $X$ of degree $5$ over any perfect field $\mathbf{k}$ in explicit geometric terms. More precisely, in each case we use the Petersen graph to illustrate the…

We first prove an isomorphism between the moduli space of smooth cubic threefolds and the moduli space of hyperkaehler fourfolds of K3^{[2]}-type with a non-symplectic automorphism of order three, whose invariant lattice has rank one and is…

We show that the arithmetically Cohen--Macaulay (ACM) curves of degree 4 and genus 0 in ${\bold P}^4$ form an irreducible subset of the Hilbert scheme. Using this, we show that the singular locus of the corresponding component of the…

Consider a family of integral complex locally planar curves. We show that under some assumptions on the basis, the relative nested Hilbert scheme is smooth. In this case, the decomposition theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne asserts…

We study Hilbert schemes of quadrics of dimension $k \in \{0,1,2,3\}$ on smooth Gushel-Mukai varieties $X$ of dimension $n \in \{2,3,4,5,6\}$ by relating them to the relative Hilbert schemes of linear subspaces of dimension $k + 1$ of a…

We give a computation of some Euler classes in Chow-Witt groups associated to the count of lines of smooth del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2 and 4. The description of Chow-Witt groups of projective bundles over Grassmannians for vector bundles…

We work on a projective threefold $X$ which satisfies the Bogomolov-Gieseker conjecture of Bayer-Macr\`i-Toda, such as $\mathbb P^3$ or the quintic threefold. We prove certain moduli spaces of 2-dimensional torsion sheaves on $X$ are smooth…

We give a new proof the arithmetic Hilbert-Samuel theorem by using classical reductions in the theory of coherent sheaves, a direct proof in the case of the projective space and the conservation of some numerical invariants, called…

Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}^{n}$ be an unramified real curve with $X(\mathbb{R}) \neq \emptyset$. If $n \geq 3$ is odd, Huisman conjectures that $X$ is an $M$-curve and that every branch of $X(\mathbb{R})$ is a pseudo-line. If $n \geq 4$ is…

We provide several results on splice-quotient singularities: a combinatorial expression of the dimension of the first cohomology of all `natural' line bundles, an equivariant Campillo-Delgado-Gusein-Zade type formula about the dimension of…

We study faithful actions with a dense orbit of abelian unipotent groups on quintic del Pezzo varieties over a field of characteristic zero. Such varieties are forms of linear sections of the Grassmannian of planes in a 5-dimensional vector…

It is known that the smooth rational threefolds of P^5 having a rational non-special surface of P^4 as general hyperplane section have degree d=3,... ,7. We study such threefolds X from the point of view of linear systems of surfaces in…

We speculate about an algebro-geometric proof of Harer's theorem on the rational Picard group of the moduli space of smooth complex curves. In particular, we refine the approach of Diaz and Edidin involving the Hurwitz space which…

For a regular pair $(X,Y)$ of schemes of pure codimension 1 on which 2 is invertible, we consider quadric bundles on $X$ which are nondegenerate on $X-Y$, but are minimally degenerate on $Y$. We give a formula for the behaviour of the…

We study the arithmetic of del Pezzo surfaces $Y$ of degree 2 over a function field, and in particular, the cokernel of the homomorphism from the Picard group to the Galois-invariants of the geometric Picard group $\operatorname{Pic} Y…

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve of genus $g$ and gonality 4. We show that the canonical model of $X$ is contained in a uniquely defined surface, ruled by conics, whose geometry is deeply related to that of $X$. This surface…

A noncommutative deformation of a quadric surface is usually described by a three-dimensional cubic Artin-Schelter regular algebra. In this paper we show that for such an algebra its bounded derived category embeds into the bounded derived…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective rational surface, $D\subset X$ an effective anticanonical curve, $\beta$ a curve class on $X$ and $\mathfrak{d}=\sum w_iP_i$ an effective divisor on $D_{\mathrm{sm}}$. We consider the moduli space…

We prove that the moduli space A_3(1,1,4) of polarized abelian threefolds with polarization of type (1,1,4) is unirational. By a result of Birkenhake and Lange this implies the unirationality of the isomorphic moduli space A_3(1,4,4). The…
