We study intersection cohomology of moduli spaces of semistable vector bundles on a complex algebraic surface. Our main result relates intersection Poincare polynomials of the moduli spaces to Donaldson-Thomas invariants of the surface. In…
We determine explicitly the foliated cohomology $H_{\cal F}^\ast (M)$ of the affine Reeb flow ${\cal F}$ on the Hopf manifold ${\Bbb S}^n\times {\Bbb S}^1$. The vector space $H_{\cal F}^1(M)$ contains exactly the obstructions to solve the…
We introduce a crossed module of piecewise linear surfaces and study the signature homomorphism, defined as the surface holonomy of a universal translation invariant $2$-connection. This provides a transform whereby surfaces are represented…
We study groups of germs of complex diffeomorphisms having a property called irreducibility. The notion is motivated by the similar property of the fundamental group of the complement of na irreducible hypersurface in the complex projective…
We investigate holomorphic webs tangent to real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces on compact complex surfaces. Under certain conditions, we prove that a holomorphic web tangent to a real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurface admits a…
We show that the moduli space of regular affine vortices, which are solutions of the symplectic vortex equation over the complex plane, has the structure of a smooth manifold. The construction uses Ziltener's Fredholm theory results [31].…
In this paper we prove the connectedness of isoperiodic moduli spaces of meromorphic differentials with at least three simple poles on homologically marked smooth curves whose periods are either not contained in a real line, or not…
We introduce the concept of morphism of pseudogroups generalizing the \'etal\'e morphisms of Haefliger. With our definition, any continuous foliated map induces a morphism between the corresponding holonomy pseudogroups. The main theorem…
This paper contains two results on Hodge loci in the moduli space of curves. The first concerns fibrations over curves with a non-trivial flat part in the Fujita decomposition. If local Torelli theorem holds for the fibres and the fibration…
Grothendieck has proved that each class in the de Rham cohomology of a smooth complex affine variety can be represented by a differential form with polynomial coefficients. After having proved a single exponential bound for the degrees of…
We describe the space of measured foliations induced on a compact Riemann surface by meromorphic quadratic differentials. We prove that any such foliation is realized by a unique such differential $q$ if we prescribe, in addition, the…
We show that abelian surfaces (and consequently curves of genus 2) over totally real fields are potentially modular. As a consequence, we obtain the expected meromorphic continuation and functional equations of their Hasse--Weil zeta…
This paper is a survey of the authors' recent results on "abc-surfaces" and the monodromy of their natural Lefschetz fibrations and projections to P^1 x P^1, see (arXiv:0910.2142). The results being surveyed explore various fundamental…
We study equivariant resolutions and local cohomologies of toric sheaves for affine toric varieties, where our focus is on the construction of new examples of decomposable maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules of higher rank. A result of Klyachko…
The Hessian of a general cubic surface is a nodal quartic surface, hence its desingularisation is a K3 surface. We determine the transcendental lattice of the Hessian K3 surface for various cubic surfaces (with nodes and/or Eckardt points…
Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus at--least two. Fix a holomorphic line bundle $L$ over $X$. Let $\mathcal M$ be the moduli space of Hitchin pairs $(E ,\phi\in H^0(End(E)\otimes L))$ over $X$ of rank $r$ and fixed…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero, $R = K[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$. Let $A_n(K) = K<X_1,\ldots,X_n, \partial_1, \ldots, \partial_n>$ be the $n^{th}$ Weyl algebra over $K$. We consider the case when $R$ and $A_n(K)$ is graded by giving $\deg…
The aim of this paper is to determine a bound of the dimension of an irreducible component of the Hilbert scheme of the moduli space of torsion-free sheaves on surfaces. Let $X$ be a non-singular irreducible complex surface and let $E$ be a…
The present paper is the first in a series devoted to the study of asymptotic geometry of Riemann surfaces and their moduli spaces. We introduce the moduli space of hybrid curves as a new compactification of the moduli space of curves,…
As a continuation of the work of Freiermuth and Trautmann, we study the geometry of the moduli space of stable sheaves on $\mathbb{P}^3$ with Hilbert polynomial $4m+1$. The moduli space has three irreducible components whose generic…
