We present explicit formulas for the intersection pairing in the intersection cohomology of the moduli space $M_0(r)$ of rank-$r$, degree-$0$ semistable bundles on a Riemann surface. The key idea is to realize this intersection cohomology…
The de Rham stack construction of Simpson shows that D-modules are quasicoherent sheaves on a modified geometry. Drinfeld furthermore introduced the ring stack perspective (aka transmutation), which asserts that a coefficient theory is…
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…

Fix a smooth, projective, geometrically integral curve $C$ of genus $g \geq 2$ over a characteristic zero field. We prove that the Ceresa cycle $\mathrm{Cer}(\widetilde{C})$ of a very general ramified cover $\widetilde{C}$ of $C$ is…
We survey recent results on a conjecture of Kudla regarding the modularity of generating series of special cycle classes in toroidal compactifications of orthogonal and unitary Shimura varieties. Along the way, we formulate several…
In this paper I classify, up to Cremona transformations, the Galois cover of the plane with Galois group of the form $\mathbb Z_2^r$.
We construct an explicit flat one-parameter family of 22-dimensional Artinian $k$-algebras whose special fibre is the spider algebra $k[x,y,z]/(x^8, y^8, z^8, xy, xz, yz)$ and whose generic fibre is the curvilinear algebra $k[t]/(t^{22})$.…
A theorem of Manin and Drinfeld states that any divisor of degree $0$ on the cusps of a modular curve is torsion in the Jacobian. An elegant proof of this result was provided by Elkik using mixed Hodge theory. Rohrlich proved a…
Let C be a projective curve defined over a field k and let D be a divisor of C. The Riemann-Roch space L(D) is the set of rational functions on C for which certain zeros are imposed and certain poles are allowed, with some multiplicities…
The Wirtinger integral is one of the integral representations of the Gauss hypergeometric function. Its integrand can be regarded as a multivalued function on an elliptic curve. In this paper, we study an analogue of the Wirtinger integral…
The Riemann-Wirtinger integral is an analogue of the hypergeometric integral defined on a one-dimensional complex torus. As a generalization, we define the Riemann-Wirtinger integral on the product of two one-dimensional complex tori. We…
Let $\mathbf{LG}(V\oplus V^*)$ and $\mathbf{OG}^+(V\oplus V^*)$ denote the Lagrangian and orthogonal Grassmannians endowed with the natural $\mathbb{G}_m$-actions, respectively. Thaddeus proved that over $\mathbb{C}$, the Hilbert quotients…
Given a symplectic involution $\iota$ on a K3 surface $X$, the desingularization $Y$ of $X/\iota$ is still a K3 surface, which in general has a different N\'eron--Severi group. Nevertheless, if the involution is induced by the translation…
We describe the progress in the last 10 years related to Koszul modules and syzygies of algebraic varieties. Topics discussed include the general theory of Koszul modules and resonance varieties, applications to Chen ranks of K\"ahler and…
We study automorphisms of smooth hypersurfaces in projective space $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ whose fixed loci have codimension at most two for $n\geq2$. While classifications of possible orders of automorphisms are known, our aim is to explore the…
We study canonical and pluricanonical maps of varieties isogenous to a product of curves, i.e., quotients of the form $X = (C_1 \times \dots \times C_n)/G$ with $g(C_i)\ge 2$ and $G$ acting freely. For this purpose, we provide a technical…
Let $k$ be a perfect ring of characteristic $p>0$, and let $R$ be an animated $k$-algebra. This note aims to show that the Nygaard filtered prismatization $R^{\mathrm{Nyg}}$ of $R$ is naturally isomorphic, as a stack over…
A decorated vector bundle is a vector bundle equipped with a reduction of structure group to a complex reductive subgroup $G \subseteq \mathbf{GL}(r,\mathbb{C})$. Examples include symplectic and special-orthogonal vector bundles, as well as…
Assume $k$ is a field and $R$ is a smooth $k$-algebra of dimension $d$. If $P$ is a projective module of rank $r$, then it is well-known that $P$ can be generated by $r+d$-elements (Forster--Swan). Under suitable assumptions on $r$ and $d$,…
