We study the geometry of an important class of generic curves in the Grassmannian manifolds of $n$-dimensional subspaces and Lagrangian subspaces of $R^{2n}$ under the action of the linear and linear symplectic group.
We prove that given a cubic fourfold $Y$ not containing any plane, the Voisin map $v: F(Y)\times F(Y) \dashrightarrow Z(Y)$ constructed in \cite{Voi}, where $F(Y)$ is the variety of lines and $Z(Y)$ is the Lehn-Lehn-Sorger-van Straten…
A generic smooth map of a closed $2k$-manifold into $(3k-1)$-space has a finite number of cusps ($\Sigma^{1,1}$-singularities). We determine the possible numbers of cusps of such maps. A fold map is a map with singular set consisting of…
Let $X$ be a toric Fano manifold and denote by $Crit(f_X) \subset (\mathbb{C}^{\ast})^n$ the solution scheme of the corresponding Landau-Ginzburg system of equations. For toric Del-Pezzo surfaces and various toric Fano threefolds we define…
We borrow a classical construction from the study of rational billiards in dynamical systems known as the "unfolding construction" and show that it can be used to study the automorphism group of a Platonic surface. More precisely, the…
We consider the discriminant locus of the Fermat cubic under the twistor fibration $CP^3 \longrightarrow S^4$. We show that it has a conformal symmetry group of order $72$ and use this to identify its topology.
We study surfaces of constant positive Gauss curvature in Euclidean 3-space via the harmonicity of the Gauss map. Using the loop group representation, we solve the regular and the singular geometric Cauchy problems for these surfaces, and…
The space ML(F) of measured geodesic laminations on a given closed hyperbolic surface F has a canonical linear structure arising in fact from different sources in 2-dimensional hyperbolic (earthquake theory) or complex projective (grafting)…
We classify combinations of isolated singularities that can occur on complex cubic threefolds generalizing analogous results for cubic surfaces due to Schl\"{a}fli and Bruce--Wall. In addition, we provide concise combinatorial description…
Beauville and Donagi proved that the variety of lines $F(Y)$ of a smooth cubic fourfold $Y$ is a hyperk\"ahler variety. Recently, C. Lehn, M.Lehn, Sorger and van Straten proved that one can naturally associate a hyperK\"ahler variety $Z(Y)$…
Recall that the moduli space of smooth (that is, stable) cubic curves is isomorphic to the quotient of the upper half plane by the group of fractional linear transformations with integer coefficients. We establish a similar result for…
A. Girand has constructed an explicit two-parameter family of flat connections over the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. These connections have dihedral monodromy and their polar locus is a prescribed quintic composed of a conic and…
We study special subvarieties, i.e., subvarieties containing a dense subset of CM points, of the moduli space $A_5$ of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension five, generically contained in the locus of intermediate Jacobians…
This work deals with the study of embeddings of toric Calabi-Yau fourfolds which are complex cones over the smooth Fano threefolds. In particular, we focus on finding various embeddings of Fano threefolds inside other Fano threefolds and…
We study projective structures on a surface having poles of prescribed orders. We obtain a monodromy map from a complex manifold parameterising such structures to the stack of framed $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ local systems on the…
In this paper, we study the classical theory of quadratic line complexes and Kummer surfaces. A quadratic line complex is the intersection of the Grassmannian $G(2,4)$ and a quadric hypersurface in ${\bf P}^5$, and a Kummer surface is the…
A classical result of Bondal-Orlov states that a standard flip in birational geometry gives rise to a fully faithful functor between derived categories of coherent sheaves. We complete their embedding into a semiorthogonal decomposition by…
We determine the cones of effective and nef divisors on the toroidal compactification of the ball quotient model of the moduli space of complex cubic surfaces with a chosen line. From this we also compute the corresponding cones for the…
We classify the symplectic automorphism groups for cubic fourfolds. The main inputs are the global Torelli theorem for cubic fourfolds and the classification of the fixed-point sublattices of the Leech lattice. Among the highlights of our…
In this paper, we analyze the Hessian locus associated to a general cubic hypersurface, by describing for every $n$ its singular locus and its desingularization. The strategy is based on strong connections between the Hessian and the…
