EPW-sextics are special 4-dimensional sextic hypersurfaces (with 20 moduli) which come equipped with a double cover. We analyze the double cover of EPW-sextics parametrized by a certain prime divisor in the moduli space. We associate to the…

An EPW-sextic is a special 4-dimensional hypersurfaces of degree 6 which comes equipped with a double cover which generically is a Hyperkaehler 4-fold deformation equivalent to the Hilbert square of a K3 surface. The family of EPW-sextics…

Eisenbud Popescu and Walter have constructed certain special 4-dimensional sextic hypersurfaces as Lagrangian degeneracy loci. We prove that the natural double cover of a generic EPW-sextic is a deformation of the Hilbert square of a…

We study a correspondence between double EPW cubes and double EPW sextics, two families of polarized hyper-K\"ahler manifolds related to Gushel--Mukai fourfolds. We infer relations between these families in terms of Hodge structures and…

O'Grady showed that certain special sextics in $\mathbb{P}^5$ called EPW sextics admit smooth double covers with a holomorphic symplectic structure. We propose another perspective on these symplectic manifolds, by showing that they can be…

We construct two examples of projective hyper-K\"ahler fourfolds of K3[2]-type with an action of the alternating group A7, making them some of the most symmetric hyper-K\"ahler fourfolds. They are realized as so called double EPW sextics…

We study the indeterminacy locus of the period map for double EPW-sextics. We recall that double EPW-sextics are parametrized by lagrangian subspaces of the third wedge-product of a 6-dimensional complex vector-space. The indeterminacy…

In analogy to the case of cubic fourfolds, we discuss the conditions under which the double cover $\tilde{Y}_A$ of the EPW sextic hypersurface associated to a Gushel-Mukai fourfold is birationally equivalent to a moduli space of (twisted)…

The Chow rings of hyperK\"ahler varieties are conjectured to have a particularly rich structure. In this paper, we focus on the locally complete family of double EPW sextics and establish some properties of their Chow rings. First we prove…

Double EPW quartics are hyperk\"ahler varieties of dimension 4, first introduced by Iliev, Kapustka, Kapustka, and Ranestad. The general double EPW quartic is isomorphic to a moduli space of twisted sheaves on a $K3$ surface. They have a…

Works by O'Grady allow to associate to a 2-dimensional Gushel-Mukai variety, which is a K3 surface, a double EPW sextic. We characterize the K3 surfaces whose associated double EPW sextic is smooth. As a consequence, we are able to produce…

The present work is concerned with the study of four-dimensional irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds with second Betti number $23$. We describe their birational geometry and their relations to EPW sextics.

We show that the double dual EPW sextic associated with a strongly smooth Gushel-Mukai surface can be realized as a moduli space of semistable objects on its bounded derived category. Also, we observe that the double dual EPW surface…

We provide homological foundations to establish conjectural homological projective dualities between 1) S^2 P^3 and the double cover of the projective 9-space branched along the symmetric determinantal quartic, and 2) S^2 P^4 and the double…

Each finite dimensional irreducible rational representation V of the symplectic group Sp_{2g} determines a generically defined local system \V over the moduli space M_g of genus g smooth projective curves. We study H^2(M_g;\V) and the mixed…

A 10-dimensional symplectic moduli space of torsion sheaves on the cubic 4-fold is constructed. It parametrizes the stable rank 2 vector bundles on the hypeplane sections of the cubic 4-fold which are obtained by Serre's construction from…

We show that over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to 2, homological projective duality for smooth quadric hypersurfaces and for double covers of projective spaces branched over smooth quadric hypersurfaces is a…

We identify the double dual EPW sextic $\widetilde{Y}_{A^{\perp}}$ and the double EPW sextic $\widetilde{Y}_A$, associated with a very general Gushel-Mukai fourfold $X$, with the Bridgeland moduli spaces of stable objects of character…

We study a period map for triple coverings of $\mathbf P^2$branching along special configurations of $6$ lines. Though the moduli space of special configurations isa two dimensional variety,the minimal models of the coverings form a…
