This paper, the last in a series of three, studies vector bundles on an elliptic surface whose determinant has odd intersection number with a general fiber and uses this study to calculate certain coefficients of Donaldson polynomials.

In the complement of a hyperbolic Montesinos knot with 4 rational tangles, we investigate the number of closed, connected, essential, orientable surfaces of a fixed genus $g$, up to isotopy. We show that there are exactly 12 genus 2…

We construct a degree $12$ homogeneous invariant of the complex reflection group $G_{29}$ (in Shephard-Todd's notation) whose associated surface has 320 singularities of type $A_2$, improving previous records for dodecic surfaces.

We prove that any rank two arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay vector bundle on a general hypersurface of degree at least three in $\mathbb{P}^5$ must be split.

In this paper, it is proved that certain stable rank-3 vector bundles can be written as extensions of line bundles and stable rank-2 bundles. As an application, we show the rationality of certain moduli spaces of stable rank-3 bundles over…

The generating functions of the Severi degrees for sufficiently ample line bundles on algebraic surfaces are multiplicative in the topological invariants of the surface and the line bundle. Recently new proofs of this fact were given for…

We show that projective K3 surfaces with odd Picard rank contain infinitely many rational curves. Our proof extends the Bogomolov-Hassett-Tschinkel approach, i.e., uses moduli spaces of stable maps and reduction to positive characteristic.

In this paper we construct 206 examples of Calabi-Yau manifolds with different Euler numbers. All constructed examples are smooth models of double coverings of $P^3$ branched along an octic surface. We allow 11 types of (not necessary…

We give an upper-bound for the $X$-rank of points with respect to a non-degenerate irreducible variety $X$ in the case that sub-generic $X$-rank points generate a hypersurface. We give examples where this bound is sharp and it improves the…

We review the notions of symplectic and orthogonal vector bundles over curves, and the connection between principal parts and extensions of vector bundles. We give a criterion for a certain extension of rank 2n to be symplectic or…

Let $X$ be a ruled surface over a nonsingular curve $C$ of genus $g\geq0$. The main goal of this paper is to construct simple prioritary vector bundles of any rank $r$ on $X$ and to give effective bounds for the dimension of their module of…

Tropical counting tools are useful for many enumerative questions. We count tropical multinodal surfaces using floor plans, looking at the case when two nodes are tropically close together, i.e., unseparated. We generalize tropical floor…

In this paper, we say that a rank 2 bundle splits if it is given by an extension of two line bundles. In the previous works, we gave a necessary condition for Lazarsfeld-Mukai bundles of rank 2 to split, under a numerical condition ([W2],…

Given a complex projective surface with an ADE singularity and p_{g}=0, we construct ADE bundles over it and its minimal resolution. Furthermore, we descibe their minuscule representation bundles in terms of configurations of (reducible)…

A symplectic or orthogonal bundle $V$ of rank $2n$ over a curve has an invariant $t(V)$ which measures the maximal degree of its isotropic subbundles of rank $n$. This invariant $t$ defines stratifications on moduli spaces of symplectic and…

We study the geometry of the moduli space of planes in a general cubic 5-fold and its deformation. We show that this moduli space is a smooth projective surface whose canonical bundle is ample. We also show that the variation of degree 1…

We exhibit examples of slope-stable and modular vector bundles on a hyperk\"ahler manifold of K3$^{[2]}$-type which move in a 20-dimensional family and study their algebraic properties. These are obtained by performing standard linear…

We provide a modular construction of the Laza--Sacc\`a--Voisin compactification of the intermediate Jacobian fibration of a cubic fourfold. Additionally, we construct infinitely many $20$-dimensional families of polarized hyper-K\"ahler…

We construct an algorithm that lists all closed essential surfaces in the complement of a knot that lies on the fiber of a trefoil or figure eight knot. Such knots are Berge knots and hence admit lens space surgeries. Furthermore they may…

We consider $\mathbb{P}(1,1,1,2)$ bundles over $\mathbb{P}^1$ and construct hypersurfaces of these bundles which form a degree 2 del Pezzo fibration over $\mathbb{P}^1$ as a Mori fibre space. We classify all such hypersurfaces whose type…
