Let $X$ be any rational surface. We construct a tilting bundle $T$ on $X$. Moreover, we can choose $T$ in such way that its endomorphism algebra is quasi-hereditary. In particular, the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$ is…

We prove that a Shimura curve in the Siegel modular variety is not generically contained in the open Torelli locus as long as the rank of unitary part in its canonical Higgs bundle satisfies a numerical upper bound. As an application we…

We complete the proof of the fact that the moduli space of rank two bundles with trivial determinant embeds into the linear system of divisors on $Pic^{g-1}C$ which are linearly equivalent to $2\Theta$. The embedded tangent space at a…

We determine the splitting (isomorphism) type of the normal bundle of a generic genus-0 curve with 1 or 2 components in any projective space, as well as the (sometimes nontrivial) way the bundle deforms locally with a general deformation of…

This is the revised version of our previous preprint. In this paper, we establish a generic smoothness result for moduli space of semistable sheaves of arbitrary rank over surfaces provided that the second Chern class of the sheaves is…

In the present paper, we give an upper bound for the generic degree of the generalized Verschiebung between the moduli spaces of rank two stable bundles with trivial determinant.

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic 0. Fix integers $r,d$ coprime with $r \geq 2$. Let $X_K$ be a smooth, projective, geometrically connected curve of genus $g \geq 2$ defined over K. Assume there exists a line bundle $L_K$ on $X_K$ of…

A section K on a genus g canonical curve C is identified as the key tool to prove new results on the geometry of the singular locus Theta_s of the theta divisor. The K divisor is characterized by the condition of linear dependence of a set…

Classical invariants for representations of one Lie group can often be related to invariants of some other Lie group. Physics suggests that the right objects to consider for these questions are certain refinements of classical invariants…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least two, and let ${G}$ be a connected semisimple affine algebraic group defined over $\mathbb C$. For any $\delta \in \pi_1({G})$, we prove that the moduli space of semistable…

We briefly review an open conjecture about Higgs bundles that are semistable with after pulling back to any curve, and prove it in the rank 2 case. We also prove a set of inequalities holding for H-nef Higgs bundles that generalize some of…

The aim of this note is to give a precise description of the local structure of the moduli space of rank 3 vector bundles over a curve of genus 2, which is in particular shown to be a local complete intersection. This allows us to…

In this article, we prove that any smooth projective variety $X$ which is a double cover of the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) admits an Ulrich bundle. When $n=2$, we show that on any such $X$, there is an Ulrich bundle of rank…

We present a new class of examples of base points for the generalized theta divisor on the moduli space of semistable vector bundles of trivial determinant on a compact Riemann surface and we prove that for sufficiently large rank the base…

The theory of $\Theta$-stratifications generalizes a classical stratification of the moduli of vector bundles on a smooth curve, the Harder-Narasimhan-Shatz stratification, to any moduli problem that can be represented by an algebraic…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g \geq 2 defined over a field of characteristic two. We give examples of stable orthogonal bundles with unstable underlying vector bundles and use them to give counterexamples to Behrend's…

We study the effect of diagram automorphisms on rank-level duality. We use it to prove new symplectic rank-level dualities on genus zero smooth curves with marked points and chosen coordinates. We also show that rank-level dualities for the…

Special kinds of rank 2 vector bundles with (possibly irregular) connections on P^1 are considered. We construct an equivalence between the derived category of quasi-coherent sheaves on the moduli stack of such bundles and the derived…

P. Clarke describes mirror symmetry as a duality between Landau--Ginzburg models, so that the dual of an LG model is another LG model. We describe examples in which the underlying space is a total space of a vector bundle on the projective…

We study Le Potier's strange duality conjecture on $\mathbb{P}^2$. We show the conjecture is true for the pair ($W(2,0,2),~M(d,0)$) with $d>0$, where $W(2,0,2)$ is the moduli space of semistable sheaves of rank 2, zero first Chern class and…
