I employ methods from derived algebraic geometry to give a uniform moduli-theoretic construction of special cycle classes on integral models many Shimura varieties of Hodge type, including unitary, quaternionic, and orthogonal Shimura…
We give an explicit combinatorial formula for the Schur expansion of Macdonald polynomials indexed by partitions with second part at most two. This gives a uniform formula for both hook and two column partitions. The proof comes as a…
Many combinatorial properties of a point set in the plane are determined by the set of possible partitions of the point set by a line. Their essential combinatorial properties are well captured by the axioms of oriented matroids. In fact,…
This article surveys some recent work of the author on Hilbert modular fourfolds X. After some preliminaries on the cohomology and special, codimension 2 cycles Z on X of Hirzebruch-Zagier type, a proof of the Tate conjecture for X over…
By p(|K|) denote the characteristic class of a combinatorial manifold K given by the polynomial p in Pontrjagin classes of K. We prove that for any polynomial p there exists a function taking each combinatorial manifold K to a rational…
We prove modularity of formal series of Jacobi forms that satisfy a natural symmetry condition. They are formal analogues of Fourier-Jacobi expansions of Siegel modular forms. From our result and a theorem of Wei Zhang, we deduce Kudla's…
The classical modular equations involve bivariate polynomials that can be seen to be univariate with coefficients in the modular invariant $j$. Kiepert found modular equations relating some $\eta$-quotients and the Weber functions…
Kobayashi recently proved that the generalized Heegner cycles of Bertolini--Darmon--Prasanna can be interpolated along the anticyclotomic tower, giving rise to distribution valued cohomology classes with expected growth rate. We interpolate…
In this paper, we introduce a family of symmetric polynomials by specializing the factorial Schur polynomials. These polynomials represent the weighted Schubert classes of the cohomology of the weighted Grassmannian introduced by…
Hurwitz numbers count ramified covers of a Riemann surface with prescribed monodromy. As such, they are purely combinatorial objects. Tautological classes, on the other hand, are distinguished classes in the intersection ring of the moduli…
Extending Sellers' result, Das et al. recently proved some congruence results for generalized overcubic partitions using theta functions and posed some related conjectures. In this paper, we provide a combinatorial proof of a result in…
We construct natural extensions of the Kudla--Millson generating series of cohomology classes of special cycles in compactified unitary Shimura varieties of signature $(n+1,1)$ and prove that they are holomorphic Hermitian modular forms.…
Commutative K-theory, a cohomology theory built from spaces of commuting matrices, has been explored in recent work of Adem, G\'{o}mez, Gritschacher, Lind, and Tillman. In this article, we use unstable methods to construct explicit…
The main result of this paper amounts to a complete evaluation of the integral cohomological structure of the stable mapping class group. In particular it verifies the conjecture of D.Mumford about the rational cohomology of the stable…
We prove a version of the Kawamata-Morrison ample cone conjecture for projective irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds deformation equivalent to either the Hilbert scheme of n points on a K3 surface, or a generalized Kummer variety.

Let Gr be the affine Grassmannian for a connected complex reductive group G. Let C_G be the complex vector space spanned by (equivalence classes of) Mirkovic-Vilonen cycles in Gr. The Beilinson-Drinfeld Grassmannian can be used to define a…

We primarily investigate the properties of characteristic polynomials of semimatroids. In particular, we provide a combinatorial interpretation of their coefficients, generalizing the Whitney's Broken Circuit Theorem. We also prove that the…
We consider a certain family of Kudla-Rapoport cycles on an integral model of a Shimura variety attached to a unitary group of signature (1,1), and prove that the arithmetic degrees of these cycles can be identified with the Fourier…
