Let M be a 2n-dimensional smooth and compact moduli space of stable sheaves on a K3 surface S and U a universal sheaf over S x M. Over M x M there exists a natural reflexive sheaf E of rank 2n-2, namely the first relative extension sheaf of…

We study the arithmetic self-intersection number of the dualizing sheaf on arithmetic surfaces with respect to morphisms of a particular kind. We obtain upper bounds for the arithmetic self-intersection number of the dualizing sheaf on…

We compute the stable Faltings height of the hyperelliptic curve $X_n\colon y^2=x^{n}-1$ for every odd integer $n\ge 3$ in terms of special values of Euler's gamma function. In particular, we prove the bounds $$-0.975n<…

Let (X,L) be a polarized manifold. Assume that the automorphism group is finite. If the height discrepancy of (X,L) is O(d^2) then (X,L) admits a csck metric in the first chern class of L if and only if (X,L) is asymptotically stable.

Let X be a K3 surface and M a smooth and projective moduli space of stable sheaves on X of Mukai vector v. A universal sheaf U over X x M induces an integral transform F from the derived category D(X) of coherent sheaves on X to that on M.…

Let $S$ be a smooth projective variety and $\Delta$ a simple normal crossing $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor with coefficients in $(0,1]$. For any ample $\mathbb{Q}$-line bundle $L$ over $S$, we denote by $\mathscr{E}(L)$ the extension sheaf of the…

Let $K$ be a $C_1$-field of any characteristic and $X$ a projective variety over $K$. In this article we prove that for a finite Galois extension $L$ of $K$, a simple sheaf with covering datum on $X \times_K L$ descends to a simple sheaf on…

We give a new proof of a slightly weaker form of a theorem of P. Colmez. This theorem gives a formula for the Faltings height of abelian varieties with complex multiplication by a C.M. field whose Galois group over $\bf Q$ is abelian; it…

Let f:X-->Y be a semi-stable family of complex abelian varieties over a curve Y of genus q, and smooth over the complement of s points. If F(1,0) denotes the non-flat (1,0) part of the corresponding variation of Hodge structures, the…

We study torsion-free, rank 2 Higgs sheaves on genus one fibered surfaces, (semi)stable with respect to suitable polarizations in the sense of Friedman and O'Grady. We prove that slope-semistability of a Higgs sheaf on the surface implies…

Recent results in geometric invariant theory (GIT) for non-reductive linear algebraic group actions allow us to stratify quotient stacks of the form [X/H], where X is a projective scheme and H is a linear algebraic group with internally…

We introduce a higher rank analog of the Joyce-Song theory of stable pairs. Given a nonsingular projective Calabi-Yau threefold $X$, we define the higher rank Joyce-Song pairs given by ${O}^{r}_{X}(-n)\rightarrow F$ where $F$ is a pure…

We consider heights of horizontal irreducible divisors on an arithmetic surface with respect to some hermitian line bundle. We obtain both lower and upper bounds for these heights. The results are different and sometimes stronger that those…

Let S be a Noetherian scheme and f:X -> S a proper morphism. By SGA 4 XIV, for any constructible sheaf F of Z/nZ-modules on X, the sheaves of Z/nZ-modules R^if_*F obtained by direct image (for the etale topology) are also constructible:…

We prove that an abelian variety and its dual over a global field have the same Faltings height and, more precisely, have isomorphic Hodge line bundles, including their natural metrized bundle structures. More carefully treating real…

We identify Le Potier's moduli spaces of limit stable pairs $(F,s)$, where $F$ is a 2-dimensional sheaf on a nonsingular projective 4-fold $X$ and $s \in H^0(F)$, with the moduli spaces of polynomial stable 2-term complexes in derived…

The genus g of an F_{q^2}-maximal curve satisfies g=g_1:=q(q-1)/2 or g\le g_2:= [(q-1)^2/4]. Previously, such curves with g=g_1 or g=g_2, q odd, have been characterized up to isomorphism. Here it is shown that an F_{q^2}-maximal curve with…
