We give an algebraic construction of the moduli space of irregular singular connections of generic ramified type on a smooth projective curve. We prove that the moduli space is smooth and give its dimension. Under the assumption that the…

In this paper we study $A$-projections, i.e. operators of a Hilbert space $\HH$ which act as projections when a seminorm is considered in $\HH$. $A$-projections were introduced by Mitra and Rao \cite{[MitRao74]} for finite dimensional…

We revisit results of Fujino--Sato on complete non-projective $\mathbb Q$-factorial toric varieties and their conjectural factorization by flips. We show that their main results admit short conceptual proofs, avoiding any restriction on the…

The aim of this note is to give a simplified proof of the induced version of the Ramsey theorem for vector spaces first proved by H. J. Pr\"{o}mel.

We construct and prove the projectiveness of the moduli spaces which are natural generalizations to the case of surfaces of the following: 1) $M_{g,n}$, the moduli space of $n$-marked stable curves, 2) $M_{g,n}(W)$, the moduli space of…

Quasi algebraically closed fields, or $C_1$ fields, are defined in terms of a low degree condition. Namely, the field $K$ is $C_1$ if every degree $d$ hypersurface of the projective space $\mathbb{P}_K^n$ contains a $K$-point as soon as…

We investigate the possible homological classes of rational curves on the moduli space $X_n=\bar{\mathcal{M}_{0,n}}$ of rational nodal curves with $n$ marked points. In the case of $X_5$ and $X_6$ the relevant homology classes belong to…

This mainly expository text translates into stack language the proof of King and Schofield for the rationality of moduli schemes of vector bundles on a curve in the coprime case. An appendix summarizes some basic properties of the relevant…

We identify certain Gromov-Witten invariants counting rational curves with given incidence and tangency conditions with the Betti numbers of moduli spaces of point configurations in projective spaces. On the Gromov-Witten side, S. Fomin and…

We show that the moduli space of ordered 5 points on the projective line is isomorphic to an arithmetic quotient of a complex ball by using the theory of periods of K3 surfaces. We also discuss a relation between our uniformization and the…

In this note we extend the concept height on projective spaces to that of weighted height on weighted projective spaces and show how such a height can be computed. We prove some of the basic properties of the weighted height and show how it…

We show that the spectrum X of a weakly semiprojective, commutative C*-algebra C(X) is at most one dimensional. This completes the work of S{\o}rensen and Thiel on the characterization of weak (semi-)projectivity for commutative…

We study the product structure on the Chow ring (with rational coefficients) of a cubic hypersurface in projective space and prove that the image of the product map is as small as possible.

This paper is devoted to the study of a newly introduced tool, projectional coderivatives and the corresponding calculus rules in finite dimensions. We show that when the restricted set has some nice properties, more specifically, is a…

We compute the Chow ring of an arbitrary heavy/light Hassett space $\bar{M}_{0, w}$. These spaces are moduli spaces of weighted pointed stable rational curves, where the associated weight vector $w$ consists of only heavy and light weights.…

This is an expository paper. The geometry of phylogenetic trees is used to present in an accessible and pleasant fashion the results of Deligne, Mumford, and Knudsen about the moduli space of n distinct points on the projective line and its…

Given a positive integer $n$ and a partition $(n_1,\ldots,n_r)$ of $n$, one can consider the associated $n$-dimensional multiprojective space $\mathbb{P}^{n_1}\times \cdots \times \mathbb{P}^{n_r}$. These multiprojective spaces are…

A curve, that is, a connected, reduced, projective scheme of dimension 1 over an algebraically closed field, admits two types of compactifications of its (generalized) Jacobian: the moduli schemes of P-quasistable torsion-free, rank-1…

We prove that the moduli spaces of K3 surfaces with non-symplectic involutions are unirational. As a by-product we describe configuration spaces of 4<d<9 points in the projective plane as arithmetic quotients of type IV.

In this paper, we prove a decomposition result for the Chow groups of projectivizations of coherent sheaves of homological dimension $\le 1$. In this process, we establish the decomposition of Chow groups for the cases of Cayley's trick and…
