Related papers: An analogue of Abel's theorem

We prove analogues of several well-known results concerning rational morphisms between quadrics for the class of so-called quasilinear $p$-hypersurfaces. These hypersurfaces are nowhere smooth over the base field, so many of the geometric…

Motivated by the recent surge of interest in the geometry of hybrid spaces, we prove an Abel-Jacobi theorem for a metrized complex of Riemann surfaces, generalizing both the classical Abel-Jacobi theorem and its tropical analogue.

We compute the subgroup of the monodromy group of a generalized Kummer variety associated to equivalences of derived categories of abelian surfaces. The result was previously announced in arXiv:1201.0031. Mongardi showed that the subgroup…

We reduce CR-structures on smooth elliptic and hyperbolic manifolds of CR-codimension 2 to parallelisms thus solving the problem of global equivalence for such manifolds. The parallelism that we construct is defined on a sequence of two…

This note gives a simple approach to q-analogues of some results associated with Abel polynomials.

This paper gives a conjectural characterization of those elliptic curves over the field of complex numbers which "should" be covered by standard modular curves. The elliptic curves in question all have algebraic j-invariant, so they can be…

We present a collection of algebraic equivalences between tautological cycles on the Jacobian $J$ of a curve, i.e., cycles in the subring of the Chow ring of $J$ generated by the classes of certain standard subvarieties of $J$. These…

We classify all the irrational pencils over the surfaces of general type with p=q=2. This classification adds a new evidence to a Catanese conjecture which states that if S has p=q=2 but no irrational pencils then it is the double cover of…

We give a criterion for a nef divisor $D$ to be semiample on a Calabi--Yau threefold $X$ when $D^3=0=c_2(X)\cdot D$ and $c_3(X)\neq 0$. As a direct consequence, we show that on such a variety $X$, if $D$ is strictly nef and $\nu(D)\neq 1$,…

We prove the real integral Hodge conjecture for several classes of real abelian threefolds. For instance, we prove the property for real abelian threefolds $A$ whose real locus $A(\mathbb R)$ is connected, and for real abelian threefolds…

We give an elementary proof of the real section conjecture for quasi-projective hyperbolic curves and semi-abelian varieties. The underlying argument is essentially equivalent to the one given by J. Stix.

A new proof of the non-rationality of a generic cubic threefold is given as follows: If a generic cubic threefold were rational then the associated intermediate Jacobian would be a product of Jacobians of curves. We degenerate a generic…

In this article formulas for the quantum product of a rational surface are given, and used to give an algebro-geometric proof of the associativity of the quantum product for strict Del Pezzo surfaces, those for which $-K$ is very ample. An…

We prove an equivariant Riemann-Roch formula for divisors on algebraic curves over perfect fields. By reduction to the known case of curves over algebraically closed fields, we first show a preliminary formula with coefficients in Q. We…

For any $n\geq 3$, we prove that there exist equivalences between these apparently unrelated objects: irreducible $n$-dimensional non degenerate projective varieties $X\subset \mathbb P^{2n+1}$ different from rational normal scrolls and…

This article accompanies my June 1998 seminaire Bourbaki talk on Givental's work. After a quick review of descendent integrals in Gromov-Witten theory, I discuss Givental's formalism relating hypergeometric series to solutions of quantum…

We study the rationality of some geometrically rational three-dimensional conic and quadric surface bundles, defined over the reals and more general real closed fields, for which the real locus is connected and the intermediate Jacobian…

I construct "fake algebraic curves" in $Cp^2$. More precisely, for any k>2, I construct infinitely many pairwise smoothly non-isotopic (and moreover not ambient diffeomorphic) smooth surfaces $F\subset Cp^2$ homeomorphic to a non-singular…

We prove that a three-dimensional smooth complete intersection of two quadrics over a field k is k-rational if and only if it contains a line defined over k. To do so, we develop a theory of intermediate Jacobians for geometrically rational…

In this paper we give local conditions to the existence of Abel maps for nodal curves that are limits of Abel maps for smooth curves. We use this result to construct Abel maps for any degree for nodal curves with two components.
