Let $A$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field. We show that $A$ is the automorphism group scheme of some smooth projective variety if and only if $A$ has only finitely many automorphisms as an algebraic group. This…

Finite-sheeted covering mappings onto compact connected groups are studied. It is shown that a finite-sheeted covering mapping from a connected Hausdorff topological space onto a compact connected abelian group G must be a homeomorphism…

In this paper we consider Gorenstein stable surfaces with $K^2_X=1$ and positive geometric genus. Extending classical results, we show that such surfaces admit a simple description as weighted complete intersection. We exhibit a wealth of…

We show that given a simple abelian variety $A$ and a normal variety $V$ defined over a finitely generated field $K$ of characteristic zero, the set of non-constant morphisms $V \to A$ satisfying certain tangency conditions imposed by a…

We examine \'etale covers of genus two curves that occur in the linear system of a polarizing line bundle of type $(1,d)$ on a complex abelian surface. We give results counting fixed points of involutions on such curves as well as…

We present a method for deciding when a regular abelian cover of a finite CW-complex has finite Betti numbers. To start with, we describe a natural parameter space for all regular covers of a finite CW-complex X, with group of deck…

This is a survey paper on moduli spaces that have a natural structure of a (possibly incomplete) locally symmetric variety. We outline the Baily-Borel compactification for such varieties and compare it with the compactifications furnished…

A \emph{Hessenberg Schubert variety} is an irreducible component of the intersection of a Schubert variety and a Hessenberg variety, defined as the closure of a Schubert cell intersected with the Hessenberg variety. We consider the…

For each smooth curve over a finite field, after puncturing it at finitely many points, we construct local systems on it of geometric origin which do not come from a family of abelian varieties. We do so by proving a criterion which must be…

We show that any complete local (normal) domain admits a module-finite quasi-Gorenstein normal (complete local) domain extension. In the geometric vein, we show that any normal projective variety $X$ over a field admits a finite surjective…

For a finite abelian subgroup $G\subset SL_n(\mathbb{C})$, we study whether a given crepant resolution $X$ of the quotient variety $\mathbb{C}^n/G$ is obtained as a moduli space of $G$-constellations. In particular we show that, if $X$…

We give the construction of a class of multiple locally complete intersection structures on a smooth algebraic variety as support. This class contains the structures defined locally by equations of the form $x^n=0$, $y^2=0$, $z=0, >...,…

We give a classification of smooth complex manifolds with a finite abelian group action, such that the quotient is isomorphic to a projective space. The case where the manifold is a Calabi-Yau is studied in detail.

We show that any polarized abelian variety over a finite field is covered by a Jacobian whose dimension is bounded by an explicit constant. We do this by first proving an effective version of Poonen's Bertini theorem over finite fields,…

We prove general results about completeness of cotorsion theories and existence of covers and envelopes in locally presentable abelian categories, extending the well-established theory for module categories and Grothendieck categories.…

It is proved in this paper that a locally complete intersection curve in a smooth affine C-algebra with trival conormal bundle is a set theoretic complete intersection if its corresponding class in the Grothendieck Group is torsion.

We describe the birational and the biregular theory of cyclic and Abelian coverings between real varieties.

We give an elementary proof of the fact that a pure-dimensional closed subvariety of a complex abelian variety has a signed intersection homology Euler characteristic. We also show that such subvarieties which, moreover, are local complete…

Any smooth projective variety contains many complete intersection subvarieties with ample cotangent bundles, of each dimension up to half its own dimension.

The discrete polymatroids and their base rings are studied recently in many papers (see \cite{HH}, \cite{HHV}, \cite{V1}, \cite{V2}). It is important to give conditions when the base ring associated to a transversal polymatroid is…
