We compute the Brauer group of the universal moduli stack of vector bundles on (possibly marked) smooth curves of genus at least three over the complex numbers. As consequence, we obtain an explicit description of the Brauer group of the…

We survey recent developments and open problems about extremal effective divisors and higher codimension cycles in moduli spaces of curves.

In this paper we focus on the problem of computing the number of moduli of the so called Severi varieties (denoted by V(|D|, \delta)), which parametrize universal families of irreducible, \delta-nodal curves in a complete linear system |D|,…

The slope of the moduli space of genus g curves is bounded from below by 60/(g+4) via a descendent calculation.

We prove uniform boundedness statements for semistable pure sheaves on projective manifolds. For example, we prove that the set of isomorphism classes of pure sheaves of dimension 2 that are slope semistable with respect to ample classes…

Riemann surface carries a natural line bundle, the determinant bundle. The space of sections of this line bundle (or its multiples) constitutes a natural non-abelian generalization of the spaces of theta functions on the Jacobian. There has…

We carry out a complete birational classification of the universal theta divisor Th_g over the moduli space of curves of genus g, and show that Th_g enjoys good rationality properties for g<12, and is a variety of general type for g\geq 12.…

Let $C$ be a smooth complex irreducible projective curve of genus $g$ with general moduli, and let $(L,H^0(L))$ be a generated complete linear series of type $(d,r+1)$ over $C$. The syzygy bundle, denoted by $M_L$, is the kernel of the…

The Jacobian varieties of smooth curves fit together to form a family, the universal Jacobian, over the moduli space of smooth marked curves, and the theta divisors of these curves form a divisor in the universal Jacobian. In this paper we…

This is a (short) survey lecture on the "theta map" from the moduli space of SL_r bundles on a curve C to the projective space of r-th order theta functions on JC . Some recent results and a few open problems about that map are discussed.

We consider all complex projective manifolds X that satisfy at least one of the following three conditions: 1. There exists a pair $(C ,\varphi)$, where $C$ is a compact connected Riemann surface and $\varphi : C\to X$ a holomorphic map,…

Let X be a very general Debarre-Voisin fourfold. In this article, we prove that all the Schur functors of the restriction of the quotient bundle of Gr(6,10) to X are modular and polystable vector bundles. We also show that such bundles are…

In this expository article, we follow the work of Langer to prove the boundedness of the moduli space of semistable torsion-free sheaves over a projective variety, in any characteristic.

In this paper for each $n\ge g\ge 0$ we consider the moduli stack $\widetilde{\mathcal U}^{ns}_{g,n}$ of curves $(C,p_1,\ldots,p_n,v_1,\ldots,v_n)$ of arithmetic genus $g$ with $n$ smooth marked points $p_i$ and nonzero tangent vectors…

Let $S$ be a birationally ruled surface. We show that the moduli schemes $M_S(r,c_1,c_2)$ of semistable sheaves on $S$ of rank $r$ and Chern classes $c_1$ and $c_2$ are irreducible for all $(r,c_1,c_2)$ provided the polarization of $S$ used…

We develop a new method for establishing the extremality in the closed cone of effective curves on the moduli space of curves and determine the extremality of many boundary $1$-strata. As a consequence, by using a general criterion for…

We prove that moduli spaces of semistable vector bundles of coprime rank and degree over a non-singular real projective curve are maximal real algebraic varieties if and only if the base curve itself is maximal. This provides a new family…

In this paper we proof the existence of a linearization for singular principal G-bundles not depending on the base curve. This allow us to construct the relative compact moduli space of {\delta}-(semi)stable singular principal G-bundles…

We investigate effectiveness and ampleness of adjoint divisors of the form $aL+bK_X$, where $L$ is a suitably positive line bundle on a smooth projective variety $X$ and $a,b$ are positive integers.
