In this paper, we prove the non-vanishing conjecture for cotangent bundles on isotrivial elliptic surfaces. Combined with the result by H\"{o}ring and Peternell, it completely solves the question for surfaces with Kodaira dimension at most…
On a compact K\"{a}hler manifold $X$ with a holomorphic 2-form $\a$, there is an almost complex structure associated with $\a$. We show how this implies vanishing theorems for the Gromov-Witten invariants of $X$. This extends the approach,…
The goal of this work is to pursue the study of pseudo-effective line bundles and vector bundles. Our first result is a generalization of the Hard Lefschetz theorem for cohomology with values in a pseudo-effective line bundle. The Lefschetz…
In this paper, we survey recent developments in the Brill-Noether Theory of higher rank vector bundles on complex projective surfaces. We focus on weak Brill-Noether Theorems on rational and K-trivial surfaces and their applications.
We establish Grauert--Riemenschneider vanishing for $F$-pure threefolds over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>5$. We apply this to prove Steenbrink vanishing for three-dimensional sharply $F$-pure pairs in characteristic $p>5$. As a…
We consider compactifications of the space of triples of distinct points in projective $n$-space. One such space is a singular variety of configurations of points and lines; another is the smooth compactification of Fulton and MacPherson;…
If an irreducible curve on the very general Enriques surface splits in the K3 cover, its preimage consists of two linearly equivalent irreducible curves. We prove the nonemptiness of countable families of Severi varieties of curves of any…
We prove that curves in a non-primitive, base point free, ample linear system on a K3 surface have maximal variation. The result is deduced from general restriction theorems applied to the tangent bundle. We also show how to use…
Non-existence theorems for Levi flat hypersurfaces have found great interest in the literature. The question next to this that has to be asked is, when existing Levi flat hypersurfaces are at least rigid under deformations. Here, the case…
In this paper, we study relations between positivity of the curvature and the asymptotic behavior of the higher cohomology group for tensor powers of a holomorphic line bundle. The Andreotti-Grauert vanishing theorem asserts that partial…
We construct an Enriques surface X over Q with empty \'etale-Brauer set (and hence no rational points) for which there is no algebraic Brauer-Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle. In addition, if there is a transcendental obstruction on…
A $k$-very ample line bundle L on a Del Pezzo Surface is numerically characterized. We find that the set of the exceptional curves and effective divisors with selfintersection zero, $\cal S$, plays a very important rule in checking the…
We prove the vanishing of a certain characteristic class of flat vector bundles when the structure groups of the bundles are contained in GL(N,Z). We do so by explicitly writing the characteristic class as an exact form on the base of the…
Given a curve $C$ that is a degree $k$ cover $C \to \mathbb{P}^1$ totally ramified at two points $p$ and $q$, we can seek to understand the space of degree $d$ line bundles on $C$ with prescribed ramification at $p$ and $q$. The…
For proper surjective holomorphic maps from K"ahler manifolds to analytic spaces, we give a decomposition theorem for the cohomology groups of the canonical bundle twisted by Nakano semi-positive vector bundles by means of the higher direct…
The paper investigates the non-vanishing of $H^1(E(n))$, where $E$ is a (normalized) rank two vector bundle over any smooth irreducible threefold $X$ of degree $d$ such that $Pic(X) \cong \ZZ$. If $\epsilon$ is the integer defined by the…
For a bundle of oriented closed smooth $n$-manifolds $\pi: E \to X$, the tautological class $\kappa_{\mathcal{L}_k} (E) \in H^{4k-n}(X;\mathbb{Q})$ is defined by fibre integration of the Hirzebruch class $\mathcal{L}_k (T_v E)$ of the…
In this paper we discuss an obstruction to the integral Hodge conjecture, which arises from certain behavior of vanishing cycles. This allows us to construct new counter-examples to the integral Hodge conjecture. One typical such…
Let C be a curve in a compact Kahler surface Y. Assume that the self-intersection of C is vanishing, and the image of the fundamental group of C in Y is of infinite index in the fundamental group of Y. Does it follow that C is a fiber of a…
Let $C$ be a curve of genus $g$. A fundamental problem in the theory of algebraic curves is to understand maps $C \to \mathbb{P}^r$ of specified degree $d$. When $C$ is general, the moduli space of such maps is well-understood by the main…
