p −1-Linear Maps in Algebra and Geometry
2012
At least since Habousch’s proof of Kempf’s vanishing theorem, Frobenius splitting techniques have played a crucial role in geometric representation theory and algebraic geometry over a field of positive characteristic. In this article we survey some recent developments which grew out of the confluence of Frobenius splitting techniques and tight closure theory and which provide a framework for higher dimension geometry in positive characteristic. We focus on local properties, i.e. singularities, test ideals, and local cohomology on the one hand and global geometric applicatioms to vanishing theorems and lifting of sections on the other.
Special Families of Curves, of Abelian Varieties, and of Certain Minimal Manifolds over Curves
2006
This survey article discusses some results on the structure of families f:V-->U of n-dimensional manifolds over quasi-projective curves U, with semistable reduction over a compactification Y of U. We improve the Arakelov inequality for the direct images of powers of the dualizing sheaf. For families of Abelian varieties we recall the characterization of Shimura curves by Arakelov equalities. For families of curves we recall the characterization of Teichmueller curves in terms of the existence of certain sub variation of Hodge structures. We sketch the proof that the moduli scheme of curves of genus g>1 can not contain compact Shimura curves, and that it only contains a non-compact Shimura c…
Vector Bundles and Torsion Free Sheaves on Degenerations of Elliptic Curves
2006
In this paper we give a survey about the classification of vector bundles and torsion free sheaves on degenerations of elliptic curves. Coherent sheaves on singular curves of arithmetic genus one can be studied using the technique of matrix problems or via Fourier-Mukai transforms, both methods are discussed here. Moreover, we include new proofs of some classical results about vector bundles on elliptic curves.
Derived categories of irreducible projective curves of arithmetic genus one
2006
We investigate the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on irreducible singular projective curves of arithmetic genus one. A description of the group of exact auto-equivalences and the set of all $t$ -structures of this category is given. We describe the moduli space of stability conditions, obtain a complete classification of all spherical objects in this category and show that the group of exact auto-equivalences acts transitively on them. Harder–Narasimhan filtrations in the sense of Bridgeland are used as our main technical tool.
The cartesian closed bicategory of generalised species of structures
2007
AbstractThe concept of generalised species of structures between small categories and, correspondingly, that of generalised analytic functor between presheaf categories are introduced. An operation of substitution for generalised species, which is the counterpart to the composition of generalised analytic functors, is also put forward. These definitions encompass most notions of combinatorial species considered in the literature — including of course Joyal's original notion — together with their associated substitution operation. Our first main result exhibits the substitution calculus of generalised species as arising from a Kleisli bicategory for a pseudo-comonad on profunctors. Our secon…
$V$-filtrations in positive characteristic and test modules
2013
Let $R$ be a ring essentially of finite type over an $F$-finite field. Given an ideal $\mathfrak{a}$ and a principal Cartier module $M$ we introduce the notion of a $V$-filtration of $M$ along $\mathfrak{a}$. If $M$ is $F$-regular then this coincides with the test module filtration. We also show that the associated graded induces a functor $Gr^{[0,1]}$ from Cartier crystals to Cartier crystals supported on $V(\mathfrak{a})$. This functor commutes with finite pushforwards for principal ideals and with pullbacks along essentially \'etale morphisms. We also derive corresponding transformation rules for test modules generalizing previous results by Schwede and Tucker in the \'etale case (cf. ar…
On the slope of hyperelliptic fibrations with positive relative irregularity
2016
Let $f:\, S \to B$ be a locally non-trivial relatively minimal fibration of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g\geq 2$ with relative irregularity $q_f$. We show a sharp lower bound on the slope $\lambda_f$ of $f$. As a consequence, we prove a conjecture of Barja and Stoppino on the lower bound of $\lambda_f$ as an increasing function of $q_f$ in this case, and we also prove a conjecture of Xiao on the ampleness of the direct image of the relative canonical sheaf if $\lambda_f<4$.
Stability conditions and related filtrations for $(G,h)$-constellations
2017
Given an infinite reductive algebraic group $G$, we consider $G$-equivariant coherent sheaves with prescribed multiplicities, called $(G,h)$-constellations, for which two stability notions arise. The first one is analogous to the $\theta$-stability defined for quiver representations by King and for $G$-constellations by Craw and Ishii, but depending on infinitely many parameters. The second one comes from Geometric Invariant Theory in the construction of a moduli space for $(G,h)$-constellations, and depends on some finite subset $D$ of the isomorphy classes of irreducible representations of $G$. We show that these two stability notions do not coincide, answering negatively a question raise…
Theta-characteristics on singular curves
2007
On a smooth curve a theta–characteristic is a line bundle L with square that is the canonical line bundle ω. The equivalent conditionHom(L, ω) ∼= L generalizes well to singular curves, as applications show. More precisely, a theta–characteristic is a torsion–free sheaf F of rank 1 with Hom(F , ω) ∼= F . If the curve has non ADE–singularities then there are infinitely many theta–characteristics. Therefore, theta–characteristics are distinguished by their local type. The main purpose of this article is to compute the number of even and odd theta–characteristics (i.e. F with h(C,F) ≡ 0 resp. h(C,F) ≡ 1 modulo 2) in terms of the geometric genus of the curve and certain discrete invariants of a …
Multiple Points in the Target: The Case of Parameterised Hypersurfaces
2020
We focus on parameterised hypersurfaces, and explore the information one can obtain from the matrix of a presentation of the push-forward of the structure sheaf, through the use of Fitting ideals. We show that in a number of cases the spaces defined by the Fitting ideals are Cohen–Macaulay, extending the previously known range. We prove the Milnor–Tjurina relation for parameterised hypersurfaces whose dimension is no greater than two.
