Let C be a Brill-Noether-Petri curve of genus g\geq 12. We prove that C lies on a polarized K3 surface, or on a limit thereof, if and only if the Gauss-Wahl map for C is not surjective. The proof is obtained by studying the validity of two…

We prove the Lipman-Zariski conjecture for complex surface singularities of genus one, and also for those of genus two whose link is not a rational homology sphere. As an application, we characterize complex $2$-tori as the only normal…

The Graded Classification Conjecture (GCC) states that the pointed $K_0^{\operatorname{gr}}$-group is a complete invariant of the Leavitt path algebras of finite graphs when these algebras are considered with their natural grading by…

We establish the canonical class inequality for families of higher dimensional projective manifolds. As an application, we get a new inequality between the Chern numbers of 3-folds with smooth families of minimal surfaces of general type…

Let $X$ be one of the $28$ Atkin-Lehner quotients of a curve $X_0(N)$ such that $X$ has genus $2$ and its Jacobian variety $J$ is absolutely simple. We show that the Shafarevich-Tate group of $J/\mathbb{Q}$ is trivial. This verifies the…

Fujita's second theorem for K\"ahler fibre spaces over a curve asserts that the direct image $V$ of the relative dualizing sheaf splits as the direct sum $ V = A \oplus Q$, where $A$ is ample and $Q$ is unitary flat. We focus on our…

Let C be a hyperelliptic curve of good reduction defined over a discrete valuation field K with algebraically closed residue field k. Assume moreover that char k \ne 2. Given d \in K^*\K^*2, we introduce an explicit description of the…

It is known that in the case of hyperelliptic curves the Shafarevich conjecture can be made effective, i.e., for any number field k and any finite set of places S of k, one can effectively compute the set of isomorphism classes of…

Given a fibration over a perfect field of positive characteristic, we study an Iitaka-type inequality for the anticanonical divisors. We conclude that it holds when the source of the fibration is a threefold or when the target is a curve,…

Let F be a polystable sheaf on a smooth minimal projective surface of Kodaira dimension 0. Then the DG-Lie algebra RHom(F,F) of derived endomorphisms of F is formal. The proof is based on the study of equivariant $L_{\infty}$ minimal models…

The main purpose of this paper is to prove the Iitaka conjecture $C_{n,m}$ on the assumption that the sufficiently general fibers have maximal Albanese dimension.

We show that any orientation preserving Hodge isometry between the Hodge structures of two K3 surfaces X and X' twisted by Brauer classes $\alpha$ resp. $\alpha'$ can be lifted to a Fourier-Mukai equivalence between the derived categories…

In earlier work (arXiv:0801.0261), we gave a definition of an abelian category of motivic (constructible) sheaves over a base in characteristic zero using Nori's method. This category has Hodge and etale realizations, and is stable under…

Let X be a smooth complex projective curve of genus g bigger or equal to 1. If g is bigger than 1 assume further that X is either bielliptic or with general moduli. Under a natural condition on slopes, we prove that there exists a short…

In this article, we prove the Hodge conjecture for a desingularization of the moduli space of rank 2, semi-stable, torsion-free sheaves with fixed odd degree determinant over a very general irreducible nodal curve of genus at least 2. We…

The objective of the paper is to prove that, as it happens for smooth elliptic curves, any Fourier-Mukai partner of a projective reduced Gorenstein curve of genus one and trivial dualising sheaf, is isomorphic to itself.

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve, let $p>2$ be a prime of good reduction for $E$, and assume that $E$ admits a rational $p$-isogeny with kernel $\mathbb{F}_p(\phi)$. In this paper we prove the cyclotomic Iwasawa main conjecture for…

We investigate a strong version of the integral Tate conjecture for 1-cycles on the product of a curve and a surface over a finite field, under the assumption that the surface is geometrically $CH_0$-trivial. By this we mean that over any…

Let $A$ be a uniform algebra, $\theta:A\to M_n(\mathbb{C})$ be a continuous homomorphism and $\alpha:A\to A$ be an antilinear contraction such that \[ \|\theta(f)+\theta(\alpha(f))^*\|\le 2\|f\| \quad(f\in A). \] We show that $\|\theta\|\le…

We will prove that given a genus-2 fibration $f: X \rightarrow C$ on a smooth projective surface $X$ such that $b_1(X)=b_1(C)+2$, the fundamental group of $X$ is almost isomorphic to $\pi_1(C) \times \pi_1(E)$, where $E$ is an elliptic…
