Let k be a field and f be a Siegel modular form of weight h \geq 0 and genus g>1 over k. Using f, we define an invariant of the k-isomorphism class of a principally polarized abelian variety (A,a)/k of dimension g. Moreover when (A,a) is…
Explicit formulas determining the dimension and the degree of the singular subscheme of hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb P}^n$ are given in terms of the graded Betti numbers of the minimal free resolution of the corresponding Jacobian algebra.…
Let G be a connected simple adjoint p-adic group not isomorphic to a projective linear group PGL(m,D) of a division algebra D, or an adjoint ramified unitary group of a split hermitian form in 3 variables. We prove that G admits an…
It is conjectured that there exist finitely many isomorphism classes of simple endomorphism algebras of abelian varieties of GL_2-type over \Q of bounded dimension. We explore this conjecture when particularized to quaternion endomorphism…
This is an announcement of conjectures and results concerning the generating series of Euler characteristics of Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces with simple (Kleinian) singularities. For a quotient surface C^2/G with G a finite…
We generalise a result from [Bak15] on K3 type hyperk\"ahler manifolds proving that a line in a lagrangian plane on a hyperk\"ahler manifold $X$ of Kummer type has Beauville-Bogomolov-Fujiki square $-\frac{n+1}{2}$ and order 2 in the…
We investigate representations of mapping class groups of surfaces that arise from the untwisted Drinfeld double of a finite group G, focusing on surfaces without marked points or with one marked point. We obtain concrete descriptions of…
We study the Kodaira dimension of Kuga varieties $\mathcal{X}^n_p$ associated to the moduli spaces $\mathcal{A}_p$ of $(1, p)$-polarised abelian surfaces with level structure for prime $p \geq 3$.
Call a normal complex projective variety $X$ Koll\'ar-hyperbolic if any nonconstant map from a smooth projective curve to $X$ induces a nontrivial homomorphism of \'etale fundamental groups. Examples include (a) smooth varieties with finite…
We study the behaviour on some nodal hyperplanes of the isomorphism, described in a paper of 2019 by Boissi\`ere, Camere and Sarti, between the moduli space of smooth cubic threefolds and the moduli space of hyperk\"ahler fourfolds of…
We give a detailed analysis of the semisimple elements, in the sense of Vinberg, of the third exterior power of a 9-dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2 and 3. To a general such…
We show that for every g greater or equal than 5, the locus of Prym varieties in the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension g-1 that possess a pseudoreflection of geometric origin is the union of three…
We investigate the representation theory of the polynomial core of the quantum Teichmuller space of a punctured surface S. This is a purely algebraic object, closely related to the combinatorics of the simplicial complex of ideal cell…
We construct an infinite number of Shimura curves contained in the locus of hyperelliptic Jacobians of genus 3. In the opposite direction, we show that in genus 3 the only possible non-complete (in the moduli space of abelian threefolds)…
We study abelian varieties and K3 surfaces with complex multiplication defined over number fields of fixed degree. We show that these varieties fall into finitely many isomorphism classes over an algebraic closure of the field of rational…
In this paper we give a characterization of strongly Euler homogeneous singular points on a reduced complex projective hypersurface $D=V(f)\subset \PP^n$ using the Jacobian syzygies of $f$. The characterization compares the ranks of the…
In this paper, we show the fundamental theorems for rotationally symmetric hypersurfaces, and thus, together with the earlier results in [3] and [4], provide a complete classification of umbilic hypersurfaces in the Heisenberg groups…
We show that very general hypersurfaces in odd-dimensional simplicial projective toric varieties verifying a certain combinatorial property satisfy the Hodge conjecture (these include projective spaces). This gives a connection between the…
We study the locus of smooth hypersurfaces inside the Hilbert scheme of a smooth projective complex variety. In the spirit of scanning, we construct a map to a continuous section space of a projective bundle, and show that it induces an…
For appropriate $N\ge 3$ and $d<0,$ the moduli space of principally polarized abelian surfaces with level $N$ structure and anti-holomorphic multiplication by $\mathcal O_d$ (the ring of integers in $\mathbb Q(\sqrt{d})$) is shown to…
