If an irreducible curve on the very general Enriques surface splits in the K3 cover, its preimage consists of two linearly equivalent irreducible curves. We prove the nonemptiness of countable families of Severi varieties of curves of any…
We study the vanishing cycles of a one-parameter smoothing of a complex analytic space and show that the weight filtration on its perverse cohomology sheaf of the highest degree is quite close to the monodromy filtration so that its graded…
We define a new 4-dimensional symplectic cut and paste operations arising from the generalized star relations $(t_{a_0}t_{a_1}t_{a_2} \cdots t_{a_{2g+1}})^{2g+1} = t_{b_1} t_{b_2}^{g}t_{b_3}$, also known as the trident relations, in the…
Given a hyperelliptic curve $C$ of genus $g$ over a number field $K$ and a Weierstrass model $\mathscr{C}$ of $C$ over the ring of integers ${\mathcal O}_K$ (i.e. the hyperelliptic involution of $C$ extends to $\mathscr{C}$ and the quotient…
We give a generalization of the concept of near-symplectic structures to 2n dimensions. According to our definition, a closed 2-form \omega on a 2n-manifold M is near-symplectic, if it is symplectic outside a submanifold Z of codimension 3,…
Let D be a quaternion division algebra over a non-archimedean local field F of characteristic zero. This article demonstrates the existence and uniqueness of the symplectic model for a family of Zelevinsky modules of GL(n, D) to a family of…
Let $(S,D)$ be a minimal log pair of general type with $S$ a smooth projective surface and $D$ a simple normal corssing reduced divisor on $S$. We assume that its log canonial linear system $|K_S+D|$ is composed of a penciel, let $f\colon…
In this paper we show how to explicitly write down equations of hyperelliptic curves over Q such that for all odd primes l the image of the mod l Galois representation is the general symplectic group. The proof relies on understanding the…
We consider the (extended) metaplectic representation of the semidirect product $\mathcal{G}={\mathbb H}^d\rtimes Sp(d,{\mathbb R})$ between the Heisenberg group and the symplectic group. Subgroups $H=\Sigma \rtimes D$, with $\Sigma$ being…
Let $ (\Theta,T,\mu) $ be an ergodic topological dynamical system. The fibered rotation number for cocycles in $ \Theta\times \mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R}) $, acting on $ \Theta\times \mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^1 $ is well-defined and has wide…
Koll\'ar proved that a very general $n$-dimensional complex hypersurface of degree at least $3\lceil (n+3)/4\rceil$ is not birational to a fibration in rational curves. This is most interesting when the hypersurface is Fano, in which case…
The {\it Weierstrass semigroup} of pole orders of meromorphic functions in a point $p$ of a smooth algebraic curve $C$ is a classical object of study; a celebrated problem of Hurwitz is to characterize which semigroups ${\rm S} \subset…
Let $g$ be an even positive integer. In this paper we compute the integral Chow ring of the stack of smooth hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$.
We study perverse-Hodge complexes for Lagrangian fibrations on holomorphic symplectic varieties. We prove the symplectic Hard Lefschetz type theorem and the symmetry of perverse-Hodge complexes when the symplectic variety admits symplectic…
A generalized complex structure is called stable if its defining anticanonical section vanishes transversally, on a codimension-two submanifold. Alternatively, it is a zero elliptic residue symplectic structure in the elliptic tangent…
Singular fibrations generalize achiral Lefschetz fibrations of 4-manifolds over surfaces while sharing some of their properties. For instance, relatively minimal singular fibrations are determined by their monodromy. We explain how to…
We introduce invariants of Hurwitz equivalence classes with respect to arbitrary group $G$. The invariants are constructed from any right $G$-modules $M$ and any $G$-invariant bilinear function on $M$, and are of bilinear forms. For…
We prove that there are only finitely many modular curves of $D$-elliptic sheaves over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ which are hyperelliptic. In odd characteristic we give a complete classification of such curves.
In this paper we investigate the numerical properties of relatively minimal isotrivial fibrations $\varphi \colon X \lr C$, where $X$ is a smooth, projective surface and $C$ is a curve. In particular we prove that, if $g(C) \geq 1$ and $X$…
We establish GIT semistability of the 2nd Hilbert point of every Gieseker-Petri general canonical curve by a simple geometric argument. As a consequence, we obtain an upper bound on slopes of general families of Gorenstein curves. We also…
