We give an effective iterative characterization of the classes of (smooth, rational) (-1)-curves on the blowup of the projective plane at general points. Such classes are characterized as having self-intersection -1, arithmetic genus 0, and…

Let X be a complex surface with no nontrivial 2-forms. Then we show that Bloch's conjecture is true (i.e. the Albanese map in this case is injective) if and only if any homologically trivial idempotent in the ring of correspondences…

Let X be a smooth rational surface. We calculate a DG quiver of a full exceptional collection of line bundles on X obtained by an augmentation from a strong exceptional collection on the minimal model of X. In particular, we calculate…

Let X be an algebraic variety with an action of an algebraic group G. Suppose X has a full exceptional collection of sheaves, and these sheaves are invariant under the action of the group. We construct a semiorthogonal decomposition of…

We give the full answer to the question: on which curves the category of coherent sheaves $\Coh_{X}$ is tame. The answer is: these are just the curves from the list of Drozd-Greuel. Moreover, in this case the derived category…

We aim to reconstruct a monoid scheme $X$ from the category of quasi-coherent sheaves over it. This is much in the vein of Gabriel's original reconstruction theorem. Under some finiteness condition on a monoid schemes $X$, we show that the…

We associate to a projective $n$-dimensional toric variety $X_{\Delta}$ a pair of co-commutative (but generally non-commutative) Hopf algebras $H^{\alpha}_X, H^{T}_X$. These arise as Hall algebras of certain categories $\Coh^{\alpha}(X),…

Let X be a complex analytic space and let f:X -> C be a proper complex analytic function with nonsingular generic fibres. By adapting the blowanalytic methods of Kuo we construct a retraction of a neighbourhood of the central fibre…

Let $X$ be a smooth quasi-projective surface over a number field $K$, and let $L$ be a foliation on $X$. We prove that if $L$ is closed under $p$-th powers for almost all primes $p$, then any $L$-invariant smooth formal curve is…

We provide a combinatorial description of morphisms in the coherent sheaf category ${\rm coh}\mbox{-}\mathbb{X}(p,q)$ over weighted projective line of type $(p,q)$ via a marked annulus. This leads to a geometric realization of exceptional…

We study the Weil representation $\rho$ of a curve over a $p$-adic field with potential reduction of compact type. We show that $\rho$ can be reconstructed from its stable reduction. For superelliptic curves of the form $y^n=f(x)$ at primes…

The boundary of the convex hull of a compact algebraic curve in real 3-space defines a real algebraic surface. For general curves, that boundary surface is reducible, consisting of tritangent planes and a scroll of stationary bisecants. We…

We show that the general Enriques surface can be recovered from the Kuznetsov component of its bounded derived category of coherent sheaves.

In this paper, we describe an algorithm that, for a smooth connected curve $X$ over a field $k$ with normal completion having arithmetic genus $p_a(X)$, a finite locally constant sheaf $\mathcal A$ on $X_{et}$ of abelian groups of torsion…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a finite field. We show that any algebraic $1$-cycle on $X$ is rationally equivalent to a smooth $1$-cycle, which is a $\mathbb{Z}$-linear combination of smooth curves on $X$. We also…

We give a $K$-theoretic criterion for a quasi-projective variety to be smooth. If $\mathbb{L}$ is a line bundle corresponding to an ample invertible sheaf on $X$, it suffices that $K_q(X) = K_q(\mathbb{L})$ for all $q\le\dim(X)+1$.

The task of recognizing an algebraic surface from a single apparent contour can be reduced to the recovering of a homogeneous equation in four variables from its discriminant. In this paper, we use the fact that Darboux cyclides have a…

Let $S$ be a smooth projective surface with $p_g=q=0$. We show how to use derived categorical methods to study the geometry of certain special iterated Hilbert schemes associated to $S$ by showing that they contain a smooth connected…

We consider the focusing quintic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation posed on a rotationally symmetric surface, typically the sphere $S^2$ or the two dimensional hyperbolic space $H^2$. We prove the existence and the stability of solutions…

Topologically, a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g$ is a $g$-holed torus (a sphere with $g$ handles). This paper is an introduction to the theory of compact Riemann surfaces and algebraic curves. It presents the basic ideas and…
