1. Real plane separating (M-2)-curves of degree d and totally real pencils of degree d-3
It is well known that a non-singular real plane projective curve of degree five with five connected components is separating if and only if its ovals are in non-convex position. In this article, this property is set into a different context and generalised to all real plane separating (M-2)-curves.
2. $G$-torsors on perfectoid spaces
For any rigid analytic group variety $G$ over a non-archimedean field $K$ over $\mathbb Q_p$, we study $G$-torsors on adic spaces over $K$ in the $v$-topology. Our main result is that on perfectoid spaces, $G$-torsors in the étale and $v$-topology are equivalent. This generalises the known cases of $G=\mathbb G_a$ and $G=\mathrm{GL}_n$ due to Scholze and Kedlaya--Liu. On a general adic space $X$ over $K$, where there can be more $v$-topological $G$-torsors than étale ones, we show that for any open subgroup $U\subseteq G$, any $G$-torsor on $X_v$ admits a reduction of structure group to $U$ étale-locally on $X$. This has applications in the context of the $p$-adic Simpson correspondence: For example, we use it to show that on any adic space, generalised $\mathbb Q_p$-representations are equivalent to $v$-vector bundles.
3. HODGE-GROMOV-WITTEN THEORY
We determine the all-genus Hodge-Gromov-Witten theory of a smooth hypersurface in weighted projective space defined by a chain or loop polynomial. In particular, we obtain the first genus-zero computation of Gromov-Witten invariants for hypersurfaces in non-Gorenstein ambiant spaces, where the convexity property fails. We extend it to any weighted projective hypersurface defined by an invertible polynomial.
4. Gromov-Witten and Welschinger invariants of del Pezzo varieties
In this paper, we establish formulas for computing genus-$0$ Gromov-Witten and Welschinger invariants of some del Pezzo varieties of dimension three by comparing to that of dimension two. These formulas are generalizations of that given in three-dimensional projective space by E. Brugallé and P. Georgieva in 2016.
5. Algebraic hyperbolicity of very general hypersurfaces in homogeneous varieties
We generalize techniques by Coskun, Riedl, and Yeong, and obtain an almost optimal bound on the degree for the algebraic hyperbolicity of very general hypersurfaces in rational homogeneous varieties. As examples, we work out the cases of very general hypersurfaces in Grassmannians and products therefore, orthogonal and symplectic Grassmannians, and flag varieties.
6. Refined curve counting with descendants and quantum mirrors
Given a log Calabi--Yau surface $(Y,D)$, Bousseau has constructed a quantization of the mirror algebra of this pair. We give a formula for structure constants of this quantization in terms of higher genus descendant logarithmic Gromov--Witten invariants of $(Y,D)$. Our result generalises the weak Frobenius structure conjecture for surfaces to the $q$-refined setting, and is proved by relating these invariants to counts of quantum broken lines in the associated quantum scattering diagram.
7. Hochschild homology for log schemes
We extend the notions of Hochschild and cyclic homology to morphisms from algebraic spaces to algebraic stacks. Using this, we obtain generalizations to log schemes in the sense of Fontaine and Illusie of these homology theories.
8. Weights of mod $p$ automorphic forms and partial Hasse invariants
For a connected, reductive group $G$ over a finite field endowed with a cocharacter $μ$, we define the zip cone of $(G,μ)$ as the cone of all possible weights of mod $p$ automorphic forms on the stack of $G$-zips. This cone is conjectured to coincide with the cone of weights of characteristic $p$ automorphic forms for Hodge-type Shimura varieties of good reduction. We prove in full generality that the cone of weights of characteristic $0$ automorphic forms is contained in the zip cone, which gives further evidence to this conjecture. Furthermore, we determine exactly when the zip cone is generated by the weights of partial Hasse invariants, which is a group-theoretical generalization of a result of Diamond--Kassaei and Goldring--Koskivirta.
9. Poincaré duality, degeneracy, and real Lefschetz property for T-Hypersurfaces
In this article, we present two structural results about the Renaudineau–Shaw spectralsequence that computes the cohomology of T-hypersurfaces. The first is a Poincaré duality satisfied by all its pages of positive index. The second is a vanishing criterion. It reformulates the vanishing of the boundary operators of the spectral sequence as the injectivity of some morphisms induced in cohomology by the inclusion of the T-hypersurface in its surrounding toric variety. It implies that the Renaudineau–Shaw spectral sequence of a T-hypersurface degenerates at the second page if and only if the T-hypersurface satisfies a real version of the Lefschetz hyperplane section theorem.
10. Enumerating Finite Braid Group Orbits on $SL_2(\C)$-Character Varieties
We analyze finite orbits of the natural braid group action on the character variety of the $n$ times punctured sphere. Building on recent results relating middle convolution and finite complex reflection groups, our work implements Katz's middle convolution to explicitly classify finite orbits in the $SL_2(\C)$-character variety of the punctured sphere. We provide theoretical results on the existence of finite orbits arising from the imprimitive finite complex reflection groups and formulas for constructing such examples when they exist. In the primitive finite complex reflection groups, we perform an exhaustive search and provide computational results. Our contributions also include Magma computer code for middle convolution and for computing the orbit under this action when it is known to be finite.
11. K-stability of special Gushel-Mukai manifolds
Gushel-Mukai manifolds are specific families of $n$-dimensional Fano manifolds of Picard rank $1$ and index $n-2$ where $3\leq n \leq 6$. A Gushel-Mukai $n$-fold is either ordinary, i.e. a hyperquadric section of a quintic Del Pezzo $(n+1)$-fold, or special, i.e. it admits a double cover over the quintic Del Pezzo $n$-fold branched along an ordinary Gushel-Mukai $(n-1)$-fold. In this paper, we prove that a general special Gushel-Mukai $n$-fold is K-stable for every $3\leq n\leq 6$. Furthermore, we give a description of the first and last walls of the K-moduli of the pair $(M,cQ)$, where $M$ is the quintic Del Pezzo fourfold (or fivefold) and $Q$ is an ordinary Gushel-Mukai threefold (or fourfold). Besides, we compute $δ$-invariants of quintic Del Pezzo fourfolds and fivefolds which were shown to be K-unstable by K. Fujita, and show that they admit Kähler-Ricci solitons.
