Polarization types of isogenous Prym-Tyurin varieties
2007
Let p:C-->Y be a covering of smooth, projective curves which is a composition of ��:C-->C' of degree 2 and g:C'-->Y of degree n. Let f:X-->Y be the covering of degree 2^n, where the curve X parametrizes the liftings in C^{(n)} of the fibers of g:C'-->Y. Let P(X,��) be the associated Prym-Tyurin variety, known to be isogenous to the Prym variety P(C,C'). Most of the results in the paper focus on calculating the polarization type of the restriction of the canonical polarization of JX on P(X,��). We obtain the polarization type when n=3. When Y=P^1 we conjecture that P(X,��) is isomorphic to the dual of the Prym variety P(C,C'). This was known when n=2, we prove it when n=3, and…
An Arakelov inequality in characteristic p and upper bound of p-rank zero locus
2008
In this paper we show an Arakelov inequality for semi-stable families of algebraic curves of genus $g\geq 1$ over characteristic $p$ with nontrivial Kodaira-Spencer maps. We apply this inequality to obtain an upper bound of the number of algebraic curves of $p-$rank zero in a semi-stable family over characteristic $p$ with nontrivial Kodaira-Spencer map in terms of the genus of a general closed fiber, the genus of the base curve and the number of singular fibres. An extension of the above results to smooth families of Abelian varieties over $k$ with $W_2$-lifting assumption is also included.
The Coble Quadric
2023
Given a smooth genus three curve $C$, the moduli space of rank two stable vector bundles on C with trivial determinant embeds in $\mathbb{P}^8$ as a hypersurface whose singular locus is the Kummer threefold of $C$; this hypersurface is the Coble quartic. Gruson, Sam and Weyman realized that this quartic could be constructed from a general skew-symmetric fourform in eight variables. Using the lines contained in the quartic, we prove that a similar construction allows to recover SU$_C(2, L)$, the moduli space of rank two stable vector bundles on C with fixed determinant of odd degree L, as a subvariety of $G(2, 8)$. In fact, each point $p \in C$ defines a natural embedding of SU$_C(2, \mathca…
Isomer effects in fragmentation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
2015
We have observed significant differences in the fragmentation patterns of isomeric Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) cations following collisions with helium atoms at center-of-mass energies around 100 eV. This is in contrast to the situation at other collision energies or in photo-absorption experiments where isomeric effects are very weak and where the lowest-energy dissociation channels (H- and C2H2-loss) domihate in statistical fragmentation processes. In the 100 eV range, non-statistical fragmentation also competes and is uniquely linked to losses of single carbon atoms (CHx-losses). We find that such CHx-losses are correlated with the ionic ground state energy within a given group…
Lenses on very curved zones of a singular foliation of C2
2018
Abstract We renormalize, using suitable lenses, small domains of a singular holomorphic foliation of C 2 where the curvature is concentrated. At a proper scale, the leaves are almost translates of a graph that we will call profile. When the leaves of the foliations are levels f = λ , where f is a polynomial in 2 variables, this graph is polynomial. Finally we will indicate how our methods may be adapted to study levels of polynomials and 1-forms in C 3 .
Nonisotrivial families over curves with fixed point free automorphisms
2005
We construct for any smooth projective curve of genus $q\ge 2$ with a fixed point free automorphism a nonisotrivial family of curves. Moreover we study the space of modular curves and that of parameters.
Blown-up toric surfaces with non-polyhedral effective cone
2020
We construct examples of projective toric surfaces whose blow-up at a general point has a non-polyhedral pseudo-effective cone, both in characteristic $0$ and in every prime characteristic $p$. As a consequence, we prove that the pseudo-effective cone of the Grothendieck-Knudsen moduli space $\overline M_{0,n}$ of stable rational curves is not polyhedral for $n\geq 10$ in characteristic $0$ and in characteristic $p$, for all primes $p$. Many of these toric surfaces are related to a very interesting class of arithmetic threefolds that we call arithmetic elliptic pairs of infinite order. Their analysis in characteristic $p$ relies on tools of arithmetic geometry and Galois representations in …
Maximal Cohen-Macaulay Modules over the Affine Cone of the Simple Node
2005
A concrete description of all graded maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules of rank one and two over the affine cone of the simple node (a non-isolated singularity) is given. For this purpose we construct an alghoritm that provides extensions of MCM modules over an arbitrary hypersurface.
On a question of Mehta and Pauly
2013
In this short note we provide explicit examples in characteristic $p$ on certain smooth projective curves where for a given semistable vector bundle $\mathcal{E}$ the length of the Harder-Narasimhan filtration of $F^\ast \mathcal{E}$ is longer than $p$. This answers a question of Mehta and Pauly raised in arXiv:math/0607565.
Extremal properties of the determinant of the Laplacian in the Bergman metric on the moduli space of genus two Riemann surfaces
2005
We study extremal properties of the determinant of the Laplacian in the Bergman metric on the moduli space of compact genus two Riemann surfaces. By a combination of analytical and numerical methods we identify four non-degenerate critical points of this function and compute the signature of the Hessian at these points. The curve with the maximal number of automorphisms (the Burnside curve) turns out to be the point of the absolute maximum. Our results agree with the mass formula for orbifold Euler characteristics of the moduli space. A similar analysis is performed for the Bolza's strata of symmetric Riemann surfaces of genus two.
