This article investigates why the genus two, supermoduli space of curves will split in contrast to, potentially, almost all other supermoduli spaces. We use that the dimension of the odd, versal deformation space of a genus two, super…

We show that noncongruence subgroups of SL_2(Z) projectively equivalent to congruence subgroups are ubiquitous. More precisely, they always exist if the congruence subgroup in question is a principal congruence subgroup Gamma(N) of level…

We give a geometric perspective on the algebra of Drinfeld modular forms for congruence subgroups $\Gamma\leq \GL_2(\bbF_q[T]).$ In particular, we describe an isomorphism between the section ring of a line bundle on the stacky modular curve…

Counterexamples to the Modular Isomorphism Problem were discovered recently. These are non-isomorphic finite $2$-groups $G$ and $H$ that have isomorphic group algebras over the field $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ and non-isomorphic group…

We construct moduli spaces of complex affine and dilation surfaces. Using ideas of Veech, we show that the the moduli space of affine surfaces with fixed genus and with cone points of fixed complex order is a holomorphic affine bundle over…

We study the moduli space of stable sheaves of Euler characteristic 1, supported on curves of arithmetic genus 2 contained in a smooth quadric surface. We show that this moduli space is rational. We give a classification of the stable…

We obtain new results on the geometry of Hilbert modular varieties in positive characteristic and morphisms between them. Using these results and methods of rigid geometry, we develop a theory of canonical subgroups for abelian varieties…

We study stable vector bundles over the modular curve X(p) corresponding to the principal congruence subgroup of the modular group of prime level p which are invariant with respect to its automorphism group.

We extend some algebraic properties of the classical modular group SL_2(Z) to equivalent groups in the theory of Drinfeld modules, in particular properties which are important in the theory of modular curves. We study cusp amplitudes and…

We produce for each natural number $n \geq 3$ two 1--parameter families of Riemann surfaces admitting automorphism groups with two cyclic subgroups $H_{1}$ and $H_{2}$ of orden $2^{n}$, that are conjugate in the group of…

We compare lower defect groups associated with $p$-regular classes and vertices of simple modules for a block of a finite group algebra. We show that lower defect groups are contained in vertices of simple modules after suitable reordering.…

The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of large complete subvarieties in moduli spaces of rank two stable sheaves with arbitrary $c_1$ and sufficiently large $c_2$ on algebraic surfaces. Then we study the restriction of these…

The existence of invariant transversals for a normal subgroup $H$ in a group $G$ is investigated. This yields counterexamples to a conjecture in case $H$ is abelian and $G$ is finite.

The computation of the field of moduli of a closed Riemann surface seems to be a very difficult problem and even more difficult is to determine if the field of moduli is a field of definition. In this paper we consider the family of closed…

In this paper, we continue with the results in \cite{Pg} and compute the group of quasi-isometries for a subclass of split solvable unimodular Lie groups. Consequently, we show that any finitely generated group quasi-isometric to a member…

We calculate the abelianizations of the level $L$ subgroup of the genus $g$ mapping class group and the level $L$ congruence subgroup of the $2g \times 2g$ symplectic group for $L$ odd and $g \geq 3$.

We provide non-isomorphic finite 2-groups which have isomorphic group algebras over any field of characteristic 2, thus settling the Modular Isomorphism Problem.

The Heesch problem 'grades' polygons that fail to tile the plane in terms of the number of layers (or corollas) of copies of it that can be formed around a central unit. We study the different topology of ' walls', which we define to be…

We obtain characterizations and structure results for homogeneous principal bundles over abelian varieties, that generalize work of Miyanishi and Mukai on homogeneous vector bundles. For this, we rely on notions and methods of algebraic…

We study finite abelian covers of the Chamanara surface, an example of a finite-area infinite translation surface with interesting dynamics and a large Veech group. Specifically, the Veech group of the Chamanara surface is a virtually free…
