Let V be a vector bundle on a scheme X endowed with a nondegenerate symplectic or orthogonal form. Let G be a Grassmannian bundle parametrizing maximal isotropic subbundles of V. The main goal of the paper is to give formulas for the…

This paper deals with two problems about vector bundles on bielliptic surfaces. The first is to give a classification of Ulrich bundles on such surfaces $S$, which depends on the topological type of $S$. In doing so, we study the weak…

We construct curves carrying certain special linear series and not others, showing many non-containments between Brill-Noether loci in the moduli space of curves. In particular, we prove the Maximal Brill-Noether Loci conjecture in full…

We consider a class of tautological top intersection products on the moduli space of stable pairs consisting of semistable vector bundles together with N sections on a smooth complex projective curve C. We show that when N is large, these…

We study the moduli stacks of real vector bundles of fixed rank and degree on a type I real algebraic curve and determine its mod 2 cohomology algebra in terms of characteristic classes.

The classical Brill-Noether theorems count the dimension of the family of maps from a general curve of genus g to non-degenerate curves of degree d in r-dimensional projective space. These theorems can be extended to include ramification…

Two decades ago, as part of their work of generic vanishing theorems, Green-Lazarsfeld showed that over a compact Kahler manifold $X$, the cohomology jump loci in the $Pic^\tau(X)$ are all translates of subtori. In this paper, we generalize…

A refined Brill--Noether theory seeks to determine which linear series are admitted by a ``general'' curve in a particular Brill--Noether locus. However, as Brill--Noether loci are not irreducible in general, a coarse answer is given by the…

We determine the Chow ring (with Q-coefficients) of M_6 by showing that all Chow classes are tautological. In particular, all algebraic cohomology is tautological, and the natural map from Chow to cohomology is injective. To demonstrate the…

The study of vector-like spectra in 4-dimensional F-theory compactifications involves root bundles, which are important for understanding the Quadrillion F-theory Standard Models (F-theory QSMs) and their potential implications in physics.…

We completely describe the Brill-Noether theory for curves in the primitive linear system on generic abelian surfaces, in the following sense: given integers $d$ and $r$, consider the variety $V^r_d(|H|)$ parametrizing curves $C$ in the…

We study the Brill-Noether stratification of the coarse moduli space of locally free stable and flat sheaves of a compact Kahler manifold, proving that these strata have quadratic algebraic singularities.

Let C be a smooth projective algebraic curve of genus g over the finite field F_q. A classical result of H. Martens states that the Brill-Noether locus of line bundles L in Pic^d C with deg L = d and h^0(L) >= i is of dimension at most…

Let $E$ be a vector bundle over a smooth curve $C$, and $S = \mathbb{P} E$ the associated projective bundle. We describe the inflectional loci of certain projective models $\psi \colon S \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$ in terms of Quot…

A Brill-Noether degeneracy locus is closure in $\Pic^d(C)$ of the locus of line bundles with a specified rank function $r(a,b) = h^0(C,L(-ap-bq))$. These loci generalize the classical Brill-Noether loci $W^r_d(C)$ as well as Brill-Noether…

We study the cohomology groups of tautological bundles on Quot schemes over the projective line, which parametrize rank $r$ quotients of a vector bundle $V$ on $\mathbb{P}^1$. Our main result is an analogue of the Borel--Weil--Bott theorem…

We compute cohomology of the moduli space of genus three curves with level two structure and some related spaces. In particular, we determine the cohomology groups of the moduli space of plane quartics with level two structure as…

Let W be the germ of a smooth complex surface around an exceptional curve and let E be a rank 2 vector bundle on W. We study the cohomological properties of a finite sequence $E_i, 1 \leq i \leq t$ of rank 2 vector bundles canonically…

Let $C$ be an algebraic smooth complex curve of genus $g>1$. The object of this paper is the study of the birational structure of certain moduli spaces of vector bundles and of coherent systems on $C$ and the comparison of different type of…

We consider the loci of d-elliptic curves in $M_2$, and corresponding loci of d-elliptic surfaces in $A_2$. We show how a description of these loci as quotients of a product of modular curves can be used to calculate cohomology of natural…
