Infinitesimal Torelli and rigidity results for a remarkable class of elliptic surfaces

I will discuss joint work with Chris Peters which extends rigidity results of Arakalov, Faltings and Peters to period maps arising from families of complex algebraic varieties which are non-necessaril...

Modular resolutions of moduli of stable maps and reduced invariants

Gromov-Witten invariants are defined via intersection theory on Kontsevich's space of stable maps. The latter is very singular, with many irreducible components of different dimensions. As a consequen...

Monoidal Jantzen filtrations and quantization of Grothendieck rings

We introduce a monoidal analogue of Jantzen filtrations in the framework of monoidal categories with generic braidings. It leads to a deformation of the multiplication of the Grothendieck ring. We con...

Geometry of 3-dimensional del Pezzo fibrations in positive characteristic

A 3-dimensional del Pezzo fibration \( X\to C \) is one of the possible outcomes of the MMP. One aims to study the birational geometry of \( X \) in terms of the generic fibre \( X_{k(C)} \) and the b...

Brauer-Manin obstructions for K3 surfaces

I will describe some local-global principles used in the study of rational points on algebraic varieties, and the Brauer-Manin obstruction which can explain failures of these local-global principles. ...

Plane curves and logarithmic vector fields

I will discuss some questions on plane curves which involve logarithmic vector fields and provide a new viewpoint on classical problems and results....

Alternative Modular Compactifications of M_{g,n} via Cluster Algebras with applications to the MMP of \overline{M}_{g,n}

We will discuss modular compactifications of M_{g,n} (the moduli space of smooth curves) and their birational geometry within the framework of the Hassett-Keel program. We classify the open substacks ...

Symplectic duality and the Hikita-Nakajima conjecture

We will discuss the general notion of symplectic duality (also known as 3D mirror symmetry) between symplectic resolutions of singularities. We will give examples of dual varieties such as Higgs and C...

Verso la classificazione delle varietà log-omogenee

Le varietà log-omogenee sono state introdotte da Brion nel 2007, come generalizzazione delle varietà algebriche complesse omogenee complete. Queste ultime sono descritte dal Teorema di Borel-Remmert c...

Spectral analysis of polaron models in the strong coupling limit

The Fröhlich polaron and related models of quantum field theory have played a prominent role in mathematical physics over several decades. In this talk, we shall explain recent bounds on the quantum c...
