We give a novel and effective criterion for algebraicity of rational normal analytic surfaces constructed from resolving the singularity of an irreducible curve-germ on $CP^2$ and contracting the strict transform of a given line and all but…

We give an explicit rational parameterization of the surface $\mathcal{H}_3$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose points parameterize genus 2 curves~$C$ with full $\sqrt{3}$-level structure on their Jacobian $J$. We use this model to construct abelian…

We introduce a geometric realization of noncommutative singularity resolutions. To do this, we first present a new conjectural method of obtaining conventional resolutions using coordinate rings of matrix-valued functions. We verify this…

We settle the first step for the classification of surfaces of general type with K^2 = 8, p_g = 4 and q = 0, classifying the even surfaces (K is 2-divisible). The first even surfaces of general type with $K^2=8$, $p_g=4$ and $q=0$ were…

Let $\mathcal U_\hbar(\hat{\mathfrak g})$ be the untwisted quantum affinization of a symmetrizable quantum Kac-Moody algebra $\mathcal U_\hbar({\mathfrak g})$. For $\ell\in\mathbb C$, we construct an $\hbar$-adic quantum vertex algebra…

Kodaira fibred surfaces are a remarkable example of projective classifying spaces, and there are still many intriguing open questions concerning them, especially the slope question. The topological characterization of Kodaira fibrations is…

If $\mathcal{M}=(M,\nabla)$ is an affine surface, let $\mathcal{Q}(\mathcal{M}):=\ker(\mathcal{H}+\frac1{m-1}\rho_s)$ be the space of solutions to the quasi-Einstein equation for the crucial eigenvalue. Let…

We propose a framework to give a precise meaning to the intuitive notion of "family of real forms of a variety parametrised by a variety" and study some fundamental properties of this notion. As an illustration, for any $n \geq 1$, we…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety, and $G \subset Aut(A)$ a finite group acting freely in codimension two. We discuss whether the singular quotient $A/G$ admits a resolution that is a Calabi-Yau manifold. While Oguiso constructed two examples…

This paper develops a novel approach to functorial quantum field theories (FQFTs) in the context of Lorentzian geometry. The key challenge is that globally hyperbolic Lorentzian bordisms between two Cauchy surfaces cannot change the…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and $A$ a graded $k$-algebra finitely generated in degree $1$. In this paper, for $3$-dimensional quadratic AS-regular algebras except for Type EC, we give a complete list of…

Given a smooth curve $C$, we define and study analogues of KLR algebras and quiver Schur algebras, where quiver representations are replaced by torsion sheaves on $C$. In particular, they provide a geometric realization for certain…

Two projective varieties are said to be Cremona equivalent if there is a Cremona modification sending one onto the other. In the last decade, Cremona equivalence has been investigated widely, and we now have a complete theory for…

In canonical gravity, general covariance is implemented by hypersurface-deformation symmetries on phase space. The different versions of hypersurface deformations required for full covariance have complicated interplays with one another,…

In this paper, we explore a canonical connection between the algebra of $q$-difference operators $\widetilde{V}_{q}$, affine Lie algebra and affine vertex algebras associated to certain subalgebra $\mathcal{A}$ of the Lie algebra…

This paper classifies surfaces of general type $S$ with $p_g=q=1$ having an involution $i$ such that $S/i$ has non-negative Kodaira dimension and that the bicanonical map of $S$ factors through the double cover induced by $i.$ It is shown…

We suggest to compactify the universal covering of the moduli space of complex structures by non-commutative spaces. The latter are described by certain categories of sheaves with connections which are flat along foliations. In the case of…

For each $n \geq 3$ the authors provide an $n$-dimensional rigid compact complex manifold of Kodaira dimension $1$. First they construct a series of singular quotients of products of $(n-1)$ Fermat curves with the Klein quartic, which are…

It has long been known that to a complex cubic surface or threefold one can canonically associate a principally polarized abelian variety. We give a construction which works for cubics over an arithmetic base. This answers, away from the…

It is shown that a complex normal projective variety has non-positive Kodaira dimension if it admits a non-isomorphic quasi-polarized endomorphism. The geometric structure of the variety is described by methods of equivariant lifting and…
