In this article we study the deformation of finite maps and show how to use this deformation theory to construct varieties with given invariants in a projective space. Among other things, we prove a criterion that determines when a finite…

We study equisingular deformation problems for curves and surfaces in algebraic families, with particular emphasis on situations where nodal behavior is no longer generic. Extending classical Severi theory, we develop deformation--theoretic…

We study a class of exceptional minimal surfaces in spheres for which all Hopf differentials are holomorphic. Extending results of Eschenburg and Tribuzy \cite{ET0}, we obtain a description of exceptional surfaces in terms of a set of…

In this survey, we study representations of finitely generated groups into Lie groups, focusing on the deformation spaces of convex real projective structures on closed manifolds and orbifolds, with an excursion on projective structures on…

Let $\ell$ be an odd prime. We study the visibility theorem for certain elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with additive reduction at $\ell$, and deduce the existence of nontrivial $\ell$-torsion in $\Sha(E^D/\mathbb{Q})$ for suitable…

Following (and elaborating on) a method of Logan and van Luijk, we exhibit explicit genus-2 curves whose Jacobians have nontrivial 2-torsion in their Tate-Shafarevich groups.

We study singularities obtained by the contraction of the maximal divisor in compact (non kaehlerian) surfaces which contain global spherical shells. These singularities are of genus 1 or 2, may be Q-Gorenstein, numerically Gorenstein or…

On one hand, we study the class of graphs on surfaces, satisfying tessellation properties, with positive Forman curvature on each edge. Via medial graphs, we provide a new proof for the finiteness of the class, and give a complete…

We study curve singularities in a smooth surface relative to a smooth boundary curve. We consider the semiuniversal deformations and equisingular deformations of curves with a fixed local intersection number $w$ with the boundary, and prove…

Let M be a smooth connected compact surface, P be either the real line R^1 or the circle S^1, and f:M-->P be a smooth mapping. In a previous series of papers for the case when f is a Morse map the author calculated the homotopy types of…

We give more or less explicit equations for all two-dimensional cusp singularities of embedding dimension at least 4. They are closely related to Felix Klein's equations for universal curves with level n structure. The main technical result…

In this work, we study some classes of rotational surfaces in the pseudo-Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^4_t$ with profile curves lying in 2-dimensional planes. First, we determine all such surfaces in the Minkowski 4-space $\mathbb{E}^4_1$…

For an abelian variety A over a number field k we discuss the maximal divisibile subgroup of H^1(k,A) and its intersection with the subgroup Sha(A/k). The results are most complete for elliptic curves over Q.

Monodromy in analytic families of smooth complex surfaces yields groups of isotopy classes of orientation preserving diffeomorphisms for each family member X. For all deformation classes of minimal elliptic surfaces with p_g>q=0, we…

We describe the group of exact autoequivalences of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a bielliptic surface. We achieve this by studying its action on the numerical Grothendieck group of the surface.

We introduce a new method to study mixed characteristic deformation of line bundles. In particular, for sufficiently large smooth projective families $f : \mathscr{X} \to \mathscr{S}$ defined over the ring of $N$-integers…

This paper studies the obstructions to deforming a map from a complex variety to another variety which is an immersion of codimension one. We extend the classical notion of semiregularity of subvarieties to maps between varieties, and show…

We define a special type of hypersurface varieties inside $\mathbb{P}_k^{n-1}$ arising from connected planar graphs and then find their equivalence classes inside the Gr\"othendieck ring of projective varieties. Then we find a…

This is the paper as published. The topology of a complex plane curve singularity with real branches is deduced from any real deformation having delta crossings. An example of the computation of the global geometric monodromy of a…

An I-surface $S$ is an algebraic surface of general type with $K_S^2 = 1$ and $p_g(S) = 2$. Recent research has centered on trying to give an explicit description of the KSBA compactification of the moduli space of these surfaces. The…
