Moduli Spaces of Fivebranes on Elliptic Calabi-Yau Threefolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We present a general method for calculating the moduli spaces of fivebranes wrapped on holomorphic curves in elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds, in particular, in the context of heterotic M theory.

Fibrations of low genus, I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In the present paper we consider fibrations $f: S \ra B$ of an algebraic surface onto a curve $B$, with general fibre a curve of genus $g$. Our main results are: 1) A structure theorem for such fibrations in the case $g=2$ 2) A structure theorem for ...

Riemann surfaces and Schrodinger potentials of gauged supergravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Supersymmetric domain-wall solutions of maximal gauged supergravity are classified in 4, 5 and 7 dimensions in the presence of non-trivial scalar fields taking values in the coset SL(N, R)/SO(N) for N=8, 6 and 5 respectively.

Weierstrass cycles and tautological rings in various moduli spaces of algebraic curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We analyze Weierstrass cycles and tautological rings in moduli space of smooth algebraic curves and in moduli spaces of integral algebraic curves with embedded disks with special attention to moduli spaces of curves having genus $\leq 6$.

Skeletons of stable maps II: Superabundant geometries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We implement new techniques involving Artin fans to study the realizability of tropical stable maps in superabundant combinatorial types. Our approach is to understand the skeleton of a fundamental object in logarithmic Gromov--Witten theory -- the stack

On the Severi problem in arbitrary characteristic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We show that Severi varieties parametrizing irreducible reduced planar curves of given degree and geometric genus are either empty or irreducible in any characteristic. As a consequence, we generalize Zariski's theorem to positive characteristic and show

On some differential-geometric aspects of the Torelli map [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this note we survey recent results on the extrinsic geometry of the Jacobian locus inside $\mathsf{A}_g$. We describe the second fundamental form of the Torelli map as a multiplication map, recall the relation between totally geodesic subvarieties and

On the rational cohomology of moduli spaces of curves with level structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate low degree rational cohomology groups of smooth compactifications of moduli spaces of curves with level structures. In particular, we determine $H^k(\sgbar, \Q)$ for $g \ge 2$ and $k \le 3$, where $\sgbar$ denotes the moduli space of spin ...

The geometry of some parameterizations and encodings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We explore parameterizations by radicals of low genera algebraic curves. We prove that for $q$ a prime power that is large enough and prime to $6$, a fixed positive proportion of all genus 2 curves over the field with $q$ elements can be parameterized by

The sixth Painleve transcendent and uniformization of algebraic curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We exhibit a remarkable connection between sixth equation of Painleve list and infinite families of explicitly uniformizable algebraic curves. Fuchsian equations, congruences for group transformations, differential calculus of functions and differentials
