We study the Picard groups of moduli spaces in positive characteristics and we give a "$p$-adic" proof that the Picard group of moduli of vector bundles of fixed determinant is isomorphic to the group of integers. Along the way we prove…
A matrix formalism is proposed for computations based on Picard--Lefschetz theory in a 2D case. The formalism is essentially equivalent to the computation of the intersection indices necessary for the Picard--Lefschetz formula and enables…
For $4 \nmid L$ and $g$ large, we calculate the integral Picard groups of the moduli spaces of curves and principally polarized abelian varieties with level $L$ structures. In particular, we determine the divisibility properties of the…
We classify the polycyclic totally ordered simple dimension groups, i.e. dimension groups given by a dense embedding of n-dimensional lattice into the real line. Our method is based on the geometry of simple geodesics on the hyperbolic…
Let X be a nonsingular projective algebraic curve of genus g\ge3. We consider the moduli space M of stable bundles of fixed determinant with rank n and degree d coprime and d>n(2g-2). There is a universal bundle on XxM and we consider the…
We determined the Picard group of the moduli of rank two stable sheaves on an arbitrary algebraic surface up to finite index
We show that there are infinitely many commensurability classes of pseudomodular groups, thus answering a question raised by Long and Reid. These are Fuchsian groups whose cusp set is all of the rationals but which are not commensurable to…
Using the $L^2$-norm of the Higgs field as a Morse function, we count the number of connected components of the moduli space of parabolic $U(p,q)$-Higgs bundles over a Riemann surface with a finite number of marked points, under certain…
A fundamental tool of Differential Galois Theory is the assignment of an algebraic group to each finite-dimensional differential module over differential field in such a way that the category of differential modules it generates is…
For a smooth geometrically integral variety $X$ over a field $k$ of characteristic 0, we introduce and investigate the extended Picard complex $UPic(X)$. It is a certain complex of Galois modules of length 2, whose zeroth cohomology is…
We study discrete groups from the view point of a dimension gap in connection to CAT(0) geometry. Developing studies by Brady-Crisp and Bridson, we show that there exist finitely presented groups of geometric dimension 2 which do not act…
Given a lattice Veech group in the mapping class group of a closed surface $S$, this paper investigates the geometry of $\Gamma$, the associated $\pi_1S$--extension group. We prove that $\Gamma$ is the fundamental group of a bundle with a…
In this paper, it is shown that a Fuchsian group, acting on the upper half-plane model for $\mathbb{H}^2$, admits a Ford domain which is also a Dirichlet domain, for some center, if and only if it is an index 2 subgroup of a reflection…
We give, in dimensions three or greater, an example of a bounded, pseudoconvex, circular domain in complex space with smooth real analytic boundary and non-compact automorphism group which is not biholomorphically equivalent to any…
Our main result introduces a new way to characterize two-dimensional finite ball quotients by algebraicity of their Bergman kernels. This characterization is particular to dimension two and fails in higher dimensions, as is illustrated by a…
An almost-Fuchsian group is a quasi-Fuchsian group such that the quotient hyperbolic manifold contains a closed incompressible minimal surface with principal curvatures contained in (-1,1). We show that the domain of discontinuity of an…
For any finite abelian group G, we study the moduli space of abelian $G$-covers of elliptic curves, in particular identifying the irreducible components of the moduli space. We prove that, in the totally ramified case, the moduli space has…
We consider principal fibre bundles with a given connection and construct almost complex structures on the total space if the adjoint bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of the base. We derive the integrability condition. If the…
In this paper we first introduced a domain called generalized Dirichlet fundamental domain $\mathcal{F}^{*}$ for a Fuchsian group $G$ whose generators contain parabolic elements. This allows us to show that a quasisymmetric homeomorphism…
In this article, we study the geometry of an infinite dimensional Hyperbolic space. We will consider the group of isometries of the Hilbert ball equipped with the Carath$\acute{e}$odory metric and learn about some special subclasses of this…
