We introduce moduli spaces of stable perverse coherent systems on small crepant resolutions of Calabi-Yau 3-folds and consider their Donaldson-Thomas type counting invariants. The stability depends on the choice of a component (= a chamber)…

In this note we prove that the moduli space of rank $2n$ symplectic instanton bundles on ${\PP^{2n+1}}$, defined from the well known monad condition, is affine. This result was not known even in the case $n=1$, where the real instanton…

We compute the cones of effective divisors on blowups of $\mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^2$ and $\mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^3$ in up to 6 points. We also show that all these varieties are log Fano, giving a conceptual explanation for…

Let $X$ be a smooth polarized algebraic surface over the compex number field. We discuss the invariants obtained from the moduli stacks of semistable sheaves of arbitrary ranks on $X$. For that purpose, we construct the virtual fundamental…

We study the locus of smooth hypersurfaces inside the Hilbert scheme of a smooth projective complex variety. In the spirit of scanning, we construct a map to a continuous section space of a projective bundle, and show that it induces an…

We develop a theory for stable maps to curves with divisible ramification. For a fixed integer $r>0$, we show that the condition of every ramification locus being divisible by $r$ is equivalent to the existence of an $r$th root of a…

We present an alternate proof, much quicker and more straightforward than the original one, of a celebrated Fulton's conjecture on the ample cone of the moduli space of stable rational curves with n marked points in the case n=7.

We give a valuative criterion for when a smooth algebraic stack with a separated good moduli space is the quotient of a separated Deligne-Mumford stack by a torus. For doing so, we introduce a new class of morphisms, the so-called effective…

We determine explicit birational models over Q for the modular surfaces parametrising pairs of N-congruent elliptic curves in all cases where this surface is an elliptic surface. In each case we also determine the rank of the Mordell-Weil…

We consider the space $\mathcal M$ of ordered quadruples of distinct points in the boundary of complex hyperbolic $n$-space, $\ch{n},$ up to its holomorphic isometry group ${\rm PU}(n,1).$ One of the important problems in complex hyperbolic…

We give some concrete examples of moduli spaces of connections. Precisely, we explain how to explicitly construct the moduli spaces of rank 2 fuchsian systems and logarithmic connections on the Riemann sphere with 4 poles. The former ones…

Let $F/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be finite and let $\mathfrak{X}_G$ be the moduli space of Langlands parameters valued in $G$, in characteristic distinct from $p$. First, we determine the irreducible components of $\mathfrak{X}_G$. Then, we determine…

In a previous paper, the author and David Swinarski constructed the moduli spaces of stable maps, \bar M_g,n(P^r,d), via geometric invariant theory (GIT). That paper required the base field to be the complex numbers, a restriction which…

We use the method of Faltings (Arakelov, Par\v{s}in, Szpiro) in order to explicitly study integral points on a class of varieties over $\mathbb Z$ called Hilbert moduli schemes. For instance, integral models of Hilbert modular varieties are…

In this work we study the space S(n) of positively oriented, simple n-gons with labeled vertices up to oriented similarity and M(n) the moduli space of simple n-gons as a quotient of S(n). We give a local description of S(n) and M(n) around…

J. H. C. Whitehead gave an elegant integral formula for the Hopf invariant H(p) of a smooth map p from the 3-sphere to the 2-sphere. Given an open book structure b on the 3-sphere (or, essentially equivalently, an isolated critical point of…

In embedding calculus, spaces of embeddings are identified with derived mapping spaces between framed Fulton-MacPherson-type modules (framed configuration spaces). Unfortunately, there are no sufficiently good algebraic models for framed…

A cone spherical metric is called irreducible if any developing map of the metric does not have monodromy in ${\rm U(1)}$. By using the theory of indigenous bundles, we construct on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g_X \geq 1$ a…

We define two equivalent notions of twisted stable map from a curve to a Deligne-Mumford stack with projective moduli space, and we prove that twisted stable maps of fixed degree form a complete Deligne-Mumford stack with projective moduli…

We study compactifications of the moduli space of a plane cubic curve marked by \(n\) labeled points up to projective equivalence via Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT). Specifically, we provide a complete description of the GIT walls and…
