We use the moduli space of stable curves to determine the stable (in the sense of Koll\'{a}r-Shepherd-Barron) degenerations of surfaces isogenous to a product of stable curves. A recent family of examples of Catanese show that the moduli…

This work explores the geometry of stable wild Vafa-Witten bundles over the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. Specifically, we consider stable rank-two pairs $(E,\Phi)$, with $E\to\mathbb{P}^2$ a rank-two holomorphic vector bundle…

We prove a general specialization theorem which implies stable irrationality for a wide class of quadric surface bundles over rational surfaces. As an application, we solve with the exception of two cases, the stable rationality problem for…

We construct moduli stacks of stable sheaves for surfaces fibered over marked nodal curves by using expanded degenerations. These moduli stacks carry a virtual class and therefore give rise to enumerative invariants. In the case of a…

We investigate the Brill-Noether theory of rank-two, degree-$d$ stable vector bundles of speciality $3$ on a general $\nu$-gonal curve of genus $g$, $3 \leq \nu < \lfloor \frac{g+3}{2} \rfloor$. Our approach leverages universal extension…

We discuss the hypersurfaces of the moduli spaces of rank $2$ vector bundles on a classical Hopf surface formed by irregular bundles.

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…

Let $C$ be an algebraic smooth complex genus $g>1$ curve. The object of this paper is the study of the birational structure of the coarse moduli space $U_C(r,0)$ of semi-stable rank r vector bundles on $C$ with degree 0 determinant and of…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g\geq 2$, and ${\cal M}_{\xi}$ a smooth moduli space of fixed determinant semistable vector bundles of rank $n$, with $n\geq 2$, over $X$. Take a smooth anticanonical…

In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Ulrich bundles on cubic fourfold $X$ of given rank $r$. As consequences, we show that for every integer $r\ge 2$ there exists a family of indecomposable rank…

Let $(\mathcal{E}, \phi)$ be a rank two co-Higgs vector bundles on a K\"ahler compact surface $X$ with $\phi\in H^0(X,End(\mathcal{E})\otimes T_X)$ nilpotent. If $(\mathcal{E}, \phi)$ is semi-stable, then one of the following holds up to…

We define a categorical birational invariant for minimal geometrically rational surfaces with a conic bundle structure over a perfect field via components of a natural semiorthogonal decomposition. Together with the similar known result on…

We show that the moduli space of semi-stable sheaves on a smooth quadric surface, having dimension 1, multiplicity 4, Euler characteristic 2, and first Chern class (2, 2), is the blow-up at two points of a certain hypersurface in a weighted…
