In this paper we compute the pullback of divisor classes under the Prym map (extended to the boundary), and apply this result to get a lower bound on the slope of effective divisors on the perfect cone compactification of the moduli space…

Let X and Y be complex smooth projective varieties, and D^b(X) and D^b(Y) the associated bounded derived categories of coherent sheaves. Assume the existence of a triangulated category T which is admissible both in D^b(X) as in D^b(Y).…

We describe certain Lagrangian fibrations by Prym varieties on holomorphic symplectic varieties that deform to compactifications of Sp-Hitchin systems.

We study the space of non-degenerate traces on quantized Kleinian singularities of type A by studying their complement, the degenerate traces. In particular, we find the dimension of the space of twisted traces as a function of the…

We observe that if we are interested primarily in degeneration arguments, there is a weaker notion of (semi)stability for vector bundles on reducible curves, which is sufficient for many applications, and does not depend on a choice of…

Let p:C-->Y be a covering of smooth, projective curves which is a composition of \pi:C-->C' of degree 2 and g:C'-->Y of degree n. Let f:X-->Y be the covering of degree 2^n, where the curve X parametrizes the liftings in C^{(n)} of the…

The motivation of this work is to construct an analog of compactified moduli of abelian varieties and toric pairs in the case of non-commutative algebraic group G. We introduce a class of "stable reductive varieties" which contain connected…

We determine when an antiinvolution on an adjoint semisimple linear algebraic group extends to an antiinvolution on a $J$-irreducible monoid. Using this information, we study a special class of compactifications of symmetric varieties.…

We study semi-stable degenerations of toric varieties determined by certain partitions of their moment polytopes. Analyzing their defining equations we prove a property of uniqueness.

Let $G$ denote a finite group and $\pi: Z \to Y$ a Galois covering of smooth projective curves with Galois group $G$. For every subgroup $H$ of $G$ there is a canonical action of the corresponding Hecke algebra $\mathbb{Q}[H \backslash…

We study Esteves's fine compactified Jacobians for nodal curves. We give a proof of the fact that, for a one-parameter regular local smoothing of a nodal curve $X$, the relative smooth locus of a relative fine compactified Jacobian is…

Each Gr\"obner stratum of a tropical variety is a connected set of points, all of which induce the same initial subscheme. The Gr\"obner stratification is a coarsening of the decomposition into Gr\"obner polyhedra, and has the advantage…

For any split totally degenerate abelian variety over a complete discrete valuation field, we construct a log abelian variety over the discrete valuation ring extending the given abelian variety. This generalizes the log Tate curve of Kato.

We present a method to construct explicit degenerations of higher-dimensional generalized Kummer varieties. We start with a simple degeneration $f: \mathcal Y \to C$ of abelian surfaces. Then $ \mathcal{Y} \setminus \mathcal{Y}_0$ is an…

Starting from an anti-symplectic involution on a K3 surface, one can consider a natural Lagrangian subvariety inside the moduli space of sheaves over the K3. One can also construct a Prymian integrable system following a construction of…

This is the third paper in a series, following [FPVa] and [FPVb]. We classify all modular compactifications of the universal Jacobian over $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$, both as stacks and as their relative good moduli spaces. Our main…

We study an explicit $(2g-1)$-dimensional family of Jacobian varieties of dimension $\frac{d-1}2(g-1)$, arising from quotient curves of unramified cyclic coverings of prime degree $d$ of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g\ge 2$. By using a…

We use orientations on stable graphs to express the combinatorial structure of the compactified universal Jacobians in degrees g-1 and g over the moduli space of stable curves, \Mgb, and construct for them graded stratifications compatible…

We construct the minimal compactification of some modular Siegel varieties at their bad reduction places. These varieties parametrize principally polarized abelian schemes endowed with a parahoric level structure at a prime number $p$, and…

We discuss various constructions which allow one to embed a principally polarized abelian variety in the jacobian of a curve. Each of these gives representatives of multiples of the minimal cohomology class for curves which in turn produce…
