Inspired by Mukai's work on K3 surfaces, we introduce and study a notion of semi-rigidity for stable sheaves on smooth polarised varieties, designed to capture the existence of stable deformations of direct sums. We show that semi-rigidity…
We study the structure of a modified Fukaya category ${\frak F}(X)$ associated with a K3 surface $X$, and prove that whenever $X$ is an elliptic K3 surface with a section, the derived category of $\fF(X)$ is equivalent to a subcategory of…
Stability conditions are a mathematical way to understand $\Pi$-stability for D-branes in string theory. Spaces of stability conditions seem to be related to moduli spaces of conformal field theories. This is a survey article describing…
The conjectural equivalence of curve counting on Calabi-Yau 3-folds via stable maps and stable pairs is discussed. By considering Calabi-Yau 3-folds with K3 fibrations, the correspondence naturally connects curve and sheaf counting on K3…
A coherent system of type (r,d,k) on a curve C is a pair (E,V) where E is a vector bundle of rank r and degree d and V is a space of sections of E of dimension k. There is a condition of stability on coherent systems that depends on a…
We discuss the structure of the derived category of coherent sheaves on cubic fourfolds of three types: Pfaffian cubics, cubics containing a plane and singular cubics, and discuss its relation to the rationality of these cubics.
Over a smooth complex projective curve, we study an algebraic versal deformation space with fixed determinant of a coherent sheaf. The algebraic versal deformation space decomposes into a disjoint union of Shatz strata, namely locally…
This elementary survey article was prepared for a talk at the 2016 Superschool on Derived Categories and D-branes. The goal is to outline an identification of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a Calabi-Yau threefold with…
A semiorthogonal decomposition for the bounded derived category (the category of perfect complexes in a non smooth case) of coherent sheaves on a Brauer Severi scheme is given. It relies on bounded derived categories (categories of perfect…
For infinitely many $d$, Hassett showed that special cubic fourfolds of discriminant $d$ are related to polarized K3 surfaces of degree $d$ via their Hodge structures. For half of the $d$, each associated K3 surface $(S,L)$ canonically…
We investigate the geometry of the Simpson moduli space M of stable sheaves on P_3 with Hilbert polynomial H(m)=3m+1 and describe explicitly the two smooth, rational components, their 11-dimensional smooth, transversal intersection and the…
We describe the derived category of coherent sheaves on the minimal resolution of the Kleinian singularity associated to a finite subgroup G of SL(2). Then, we give an application to the Euler-characteristic version of the Hall algebra of…
Let (S,H) be a polarized K3 surface, $E$ be a coherent sheaf on S and W be a linear subspace in the space of global sections H^0(S,E). If we are lucky, there is an exact sequence 0 -> W tensor O -> E -> E' -> 0, which gives a correspondence…
We calculate a semi-orthogonal decomposition of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on P(1,1,1,3) using a tilting bundle.
We study the equivariant sheaf counting theory on K3 surfaces with finite group actions. Let $\sS=[S/G]$ be a global quotient stack, where $S$ is a K3 surface and $G$ is a finite group acting as symplectic homomorphisms on $S$. We show that…
We survey recent advances in the theory of moduli spaces of stable sheaves on hyperk\"ahler manifolds of dimension greater than $2$. We start by recalling the well-known theory in dimension $2$, i.e.~for $K3$ surfaces, emphasizing the…
We consider algebraic actions of a cyclic group of order p on a K3 surface defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. We classify possible loci of fixed points as well as possible quotient surfaces.
We show the existence of smooth isolated curves of different degrees and genera in Calabi-Yau threefolds that are complete intersections in homogeneous spaces. Along the way, we classify all degrees and genera of smooth curves on BN general…
In this paper, we study the period mappings for the families of $K3$ surfaces derived from the $3$-dimensional $5$-verticed reflexive polytopes. We determine the lattice structures, the period differential equations and the projective…
Using a recent description of the geometric stability manifold, we show the geometric stability manifold associated to any smooth projective complex surface is contractible. We then use this result to demonstrate infinitely many new…
