We study moduli spaces of abelian varieties in positive characteristic, more specifically the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties on the one hand, and the analogous space with Iwahori type level structure, on the other…

Let A_2 be the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian surfaces and V a smooth l-adic sheaf on A_2 associated to an irreducible rational finite dimensional representation of Sp(4). We give an explicit expression for the cohomology of…

The main result of this paper is a characterization of the abelian varieties $B/K$ defined over Galois number fields with the property that the zeta function $L(B/K;s)$ is equivalent to the product of zeta functions of non-CM newforms for…

We introduce one of the most beautiful algebraic varieties known, a quintic hypersurface in projective five-space, which is invariant under the action of the Weyl group of $E_6$. This variety is intricately related with many other moduli…

We give the values of the Siegel-Veech constants associated with saddle connections having distinct endpoints on translation surfaces in Prym eigenform loci in $\Omega \mathcal{M}_3(2,2)^{\rm odd}$. In particular, we show that these…

Faltings proved that there are finitely many abelian varieties of genus $g$ over a number field $K$, with good reduction outside a finite set of primes $S$. Fixing one of these abelian varieties $A$, we prove that there are finitely many…

We present a new topological method to study the discriminantal loci of an algebraic variety defined in a product of projective spaces. Our approach relies on an efficient use of groupoid to describe the monodromy. As an example, we treat…

We study the homeomorphism types of certain covers of (always orientable) surfaces, usually of infinite-type. We show that every surface with non-abelian fundamental group is covered by every noncompact surface, we identify the universal…

Let ${\mathcal M}_g$ be the moduli space of compact connected Riemann surfaces of genus $g\geq 2$ and let $\widehat{{\mathcal M}_g}$ be its Deligne-Mumford compactification, which is stratified by the topological type of the stable Riemann…

In this article, we prove that the commensurability class of a closed, orientable, hyperbolic 3-manifold is determined by the surface subgroups of its fundamental group. Moreover, we prove that there can be only finitely many closed,…

By restricting to (a linear subspace of) an affine chart in projective space, a complex stably rational or unirational manifold of dimension $m$ is meromorphically dominable by $\mathbb C^m$, i.e., admits a meromorphic dominating map from…

We study the enumerative geometry of algebraic curves on abelian surfaces and threefolds. In the abelian surface case, the theory is parallel to the well-developed study of the reduced Gromov-Witten theory of K3 surfaces. We prove complete…

We prove an unexpected general relation between the Jacobian syzygies of a projective hypersurface $V\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ with only isolated singularities and the nature of its singularities. This allows to establish a new method for the…

The paper investigates the locus of non-simple principally polarised abelian $g$-folds. We show that the irreducible components of this locus are $\Is^g_{D}$, defined as the locus of principally polarised $g$-folds having an abelian…

We prove Oort's conjecture that generically on the supersingular locus of the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties of genus g and in characteristic p, the automorphism group of the universal principally polarized abelian…

A strongly reflective modular form with respect to an orthogonal group of signature (2,n) determines a Lorentzian Kac--Moody algebra. We find a new geometric application of such modular forms: we prove that if the weight is larger than n…

A Lie hypersurface in the complex hyperbolic space is an orbit of a cohomogeneity one action without singular orbit. In this paper, we classify Ricci soliton Lie hypersurfaces in the complex hyperbolic spaces.

The Jacobian ring J(X) of a smooth hypersurface determines its isomorphism type. This has been used by Donagi and others to prove the generic global Torelli theorem for hypersurfaces in many cases. In Voisin's original proof of the global…

It is one of the wonderful ``coincidences'' of the theory of finite groups that the simple group G of order 25920 arises as both a symplectic group in characteristic 3 and a unitary group in characteristic 2. These two realizations of G…

We define a complex connection on a real hypersurface of $\C^{n+1}$ which is naturally inherited from the ambient space. Using a system of Codazzi-type equations, we classify connected real hypersurfaces in $\C^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$, which are…
