To every reduced (projective) curve X with planar singularities one can associate many fine compactified Jacobians, depending on the choice of a polarization on X, which are birational (possibly non-isomorphic) Calabi-Yau projective…

We generalise the techniques of semistable reduction for flat families of sheaves to the setting of the derived category $D^b(X)$ of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective three-fold $X$. Then we construct the moduli of PT-semistable…

Using the language of Seshadri stratifications we develop a geometrical interpretation of Lakshmibai-Seshadri-tableaux and their associated standard monomial bases. These tableaux are a generalization of Young-tableaux and…

We show that if X is the complement of a complex hyperplane arrangement, then the homology of X has linear free resolution as a module over the exterior algebra on the first cohomology of X. We study invariants of X that can be deduced from…

This is the second in a series of papers on standard monomial theory and invariant theory of arc spaces. For any algebraically closed field $K$, we construct a standard monomial basis for the arc space of the Pfaffian variety over $K$. As…

Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 3$ and $S$ a finite subset of $X$. Let $\xi$ be fixed a holomorphic line bundle over $X$ of degree $d$. Let $\mathcal{M}_{pc}(r, d, \alpha)$ (respectively, $\mathcal{M}_{pc}(r, \alpha,…

We present an expository overview of the monoidal structures in the category of linearly compact vector spaces. Bimonoids in this category are the natural duals of infinite-dimensional bialgebras. We classify the relations on words whose…

We study monoids equipped with a second binary operation that captures the structure of the endomorphisms of an object $X$ such that $X=X\times X$. We construct a universal monoid of this type and examine some of its rich combinatorial…

Let X be a building of arbitrary type. A compactification $C_r(X)$ of the set Res(X) of spherical residues of X is introduced. We prove that it coincides with the horofunction compactification of Res(X) endowed with a natural combinatorial…

We prove that any compactified universal Jacobian over any stack of stable maps, defined using torsion-free sheaves which are Gieseker semistable with respect to a relatively ample invertible sheaf over the universal curve, admits a…

Let $X$ be a simple normal crossing (SNC) compact complex surface with trivial canonical bundle which includes triple intersections. We prove that if $X$ is $d$-semistable, then there exists a family of smoothings in a differential…

We construct a monomial basis of the positive part of the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra. As an application we give a simple proof of the existence and uniqueness of the canonical basis of…

Let H be a spherical subgroup of minimal rank of the semisimple simply connected complex algebraic group G. We define some functions on the homogeneous space G/H that we call generalised spherical minors. When G = H x H, we recover…

Let $\Omega$ be a complex manifold, and let $X\subset \Omega$ be an open submanifold whose closure $\bar X$ is a (not necessarily compact) submanifold with smooth boundary. Let $G$ be a complex Lie group, $\Pi$ be a differentiable principal…

We introduce and study smooth compactifications of the moduli space of n labeled points with weights in projective space, which have normal crossings boundary and are defined as GIT quotients of the weighted Fulton-MacPherson…

Let $G/H$ be a symmetric space of a complex linear algebraic group $G$ and let $X$ be a nonsingular equivariant compactification of $G/H$. We investigate the question: when are minimal rational curves on $X$ orbit-closures of 1-parameter…

For every hyperbolic group and more general hyperbolic graphs, we construct an equivariant ideal bicombing: this is a homological analogue of the geodesic flow on negatively curved manifolds. We then construct a cohomological invariant…

We show that for smooth manifolds X and Y, any isomorphism between the special algebra of Colombeau generalized functions on X, resp. Y is given by composition with a unique Colombeau generalized function from Y to X. We also identify the…

In this paper we consider generalized monomial functions $f, g\colon \mathbb{F}\to \mathbb{C}$ (of possibly different degree) that also fulfill \[ f(P(x))= Q(g(x)) \qquad \left(x\in \mathbb{F}\right), \] where $P\in \mathbb{F}[x]$ and $Q\in…

For any compact Lie group $G$ and any $n$ we construct a smooth $G$-manifold $U_n(G)$ such that any smooth $n$-dimensional $G$-manifold can be embedded in $U_n(G)$ with a trivial normal bundle. Furthermore, we show that such embeddings are…
