We provide numerical evidence that the orbit closure of the unfolding of the $(3,4,13)$-triangle is a previously unknown 4-dimensional variety.
The paper studies the supersingular locus of the characteristic p moduli space of principally polarized abelian 8-folds that are equipped with an action of a maximal order in a quaternion algebra, that is non-split at the infinite place,…
We give a description of the $\mathrm{GL}_4$ Rapoport-Zink space, including the connected components, irreducible components, intersection behavior of the irreducible components, and Ekedahl-Oort stratification. As an application of this,…
Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve of genus $g$ and gonality 4. We show that the canonical model of $X$ is contained in a uniquely defined surface, ruled by conics, whose geometry is deeply related to that of $X$. This surface…
We show that the difference between the genus and the stable topological 4-genus of alternating knots is either zero or at least 1/3.
We study the degree of the Gauss map of the theta divisor of principally polarised complex abelian varieties. We use this to obtain a bound on the multiplicity of the theta divisor along irreducible components of its singular locus, and…
We construct $16$ reflection groups $\Gamma$ acting on symmetric domains $\mathcal{D}$ of Cartan type IV, for which the graded algebras of modular forms are freely generated by forms of the same weight, and in particular the…
We prove an existence theorem for gauge invariant $L^2$-normal neighborhoods of the reduction loci in the space ${\cal A}_a(E)$ of oriented connections on a fixed Hermitian 2-bundle $E$. We use this to obtain results on the topology of the…
We consider the classification problem for rank 4 premodular categories. We uncover a formula for the 2nd Frobenius-Schur indicator of a premodular category, and complete the classification of rank 4 premodular categories (up to…
We study topological properties of moduli spaces of p-adic shtukas and local Shimura varieties. On one hand, we construct and study the specialization map for moduli spaces of p-adic shtukas at parahoric level whose target is an affine…
The values of the $T$ and $U$ moduli are studied for those ${\bf Z}_N $ Coxeter orbifolds with the property that some of the twisted sectors have fixed planes for which the six-torus ${\bf T}^6 $ can not be decomposed into a direct sum…
We prove a reciprocity type formula for the fourth moment of L-functions associated to holomorphic primitive cusp forms of level one and large weight which relates it to the eighth moment of the Riemann zeta function and the dual weighted…
We study moduli spaces of abelian varieties in positive characteristic, more specifically the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties on the one hand, and the analogous space with Iwahori type level structure, on the other…
We prove the modularity of four rigid and three nonrigid Calabi-Yau threefolds associated with the root lattice A_4.
We will invest quite some computer power to find double octic threefolds that are connected to weight four modular forms.
We systematically study Schottky group actions on homogeneous rational manifolds and find two new families besides those given by Nori's well-known construction. This yields new examples of non-K\"ahler compact complex manifolds having free…
Generating functions $h_r(\tau)$ of D4-D2-D0 BPS indices, appearing in Calabi-Yau compactifications of type IIA string theory and identical to rank 0 Donaldson-Thomas invariants, are known to be higher depth mock modular forms satisfying a…
We analyze the geometry of the supersingular locus of the reduction modulo p of a Shimura variety associated to a unitary similitude group GU(1,n-1) over Q, in the case that p is ramified. We define a stratification of this locus and show…
We further analyze the moduli space of stable curves with level structure provided by Chiodo and Farkas in \cite{AA}. Their result builds upon Harris and Mumford analysis of the locus of singularities of the moduli space of curves and shows…
Assuming everywhere good reduction we generalize the class number formula of Taelman to Drinfeld modules over arbitrary coefficient rings. In order to prove this formula we develop a theory of shtukas and their cohomology.
