Affine varieties among all algebraic varieties have simple structures. For example, an affine variety does not contain any complete algebraic curve. In this paper, we study affine-related properties of strata of $k$ -differentials on smooth curves which parameterize sections of the $k$ th power of the canonical line bundle with prescribed orders of zeros and poles. We show that if there is a prescribed pole of order at least $k$ , then the corresponding stratum does not contain any complete curve. Moreover, we explore the amusing question whether affine invariant manifolds arising from Teichmüller dynamics are affine varieties, and confirm the answer for Teichmüller curves, Hurwitz spaces of torus coverings, hyperelliptic strata as well as some low genus strata.

This survey is based on my lectures given in the last few years. As a reference, constructions of moduli spaces of parabolic sheaves and generalized parabolic sheaves are provided. By a refinement of the proof of vanishing theorems, we show, without using vanishing theorems, a new observation that [Formula: see text] is independent of all of the choices for any smooth curves. The estimate of various codimensions and computation of canonical line bundle of moduli space of generalized parabolic sheaves on a reducible curve are provided in Section 6, which is completely new.

Let X be an n-dimensional connected compact complex manifold and A be an analytic subset of X. We say that the pair (X, A) is a complex analytic compactification of Cn if X − A is biholomorphic to Cn. If X admits a Kähler metric, we shall say that (X, A) is a (non-singular) Kähler compactification of Cn. For n = 1, it is easy to see that (X, A) ≃ (P1, ∞). For n = 2, Remmert-Van de Ven [17] proved that (X, A) ≃ (P2, P1) if A is irreducible, where A = P1 is linearly embedded in P2. Morrow [15] gave more detailed classifications of complex analytic compactifications of C2 For n = 3, Brenton-Morrow showed the followingTHEOREM ([5]). Let (X, A) be a non-singular Kähler complex analytic compactification of C3such that the analytic subset A has only isolated singular points. Then X is projective algebraic and A is birationally equivalent to a ruled surface over an algebraic curve of genus g = b3(X)/2.Further, Brenton [3] classified the possible types of singular points of A in the case that the canonical line bundle KA of A is not trivial.

Abstract.In this paper we study the notion of equivariant forms introduced in the authors' previous works. In particular, we completely classify all the equivariant forms for a subgroup of SL2(ℤ) by means of the cross-ratio, weight 2 modular forms, quasimodular forms, as well as differential forms of a Riemann surface and sections of a canonical line bundle.

AbstractLet G be a simple linear algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p ≥ 0, and let P be a maximal proper parabolic subgroup of G. If p > 0, then we will assume that dimG/P ≤ p. Let ι : H ↪ G/P be a reduced smooth hypersurface in G/P of degree d. We will assume that the pullback homomorphism is an isomorphism (this assumption is automatically satisfied when dimH ≥ 3). We prove that the tangent bundle of H is stable if the two conditions τ(G/P) ≠ d and hold; here n = dimH, and τ(G/P) ∈ is the index of G/P which is defined by the identity = where L is the ample generator of Pic(G/P) and is the anti–canonical line bundle of G/P. If d = τ(G/P), then the tangent bundle TH is proved to be semistable. If p > 0, and then TH is strongly stable. If p > 0, and d = τ(G/P), then TH is strongly semistable.

The real line will be R, Euclidean n-space will be Rn, the unit ball in Rn will be En, the unit sphere in Rn+1 will be Sn, and real projective n-space will be Pn. The canonical line bundle associated with the double cover Sn → Pn will be ηn. If γ is a vector bundle, E(γ) will be its associated cell bundle, S(γ) its associated sphere bundle, P(γ) its associated projective space bundle (P(γ) = S(γ) / (-1)) and T(γ) = E(γ)/S(γ) its Thorn space.

It is shown that the theta functions of level $n$ on the principally polarised Prym varieties of an algebraic curve are dual to the sections of the orthogonal theta line bundle on the moduli space of Spin($n$)-bundles over the curve. As a by-product of our computations, we also note that when $n$ is odd, the Pfaffian line bundle on moduli space has a basis of sections labelled by the even theta characteristics of the curve.

Let M be a compact complex manifold with a positive holomorphic line bundle L, and K be its canonical line bundle. We give some sufficient conditions for the non-vanishing of H0(M, K + L). We also show that the criterion can be applied to interesting classes of examples including all compact locally hermitian symmetric spaces of non-compact type, Mostow–Siu [10] surfaces, Kähler threefolds given by Deraux [3] and examples of Zheng [17].

AbstractGreen’s conjecture predicts than one can read off special linear series on an algebraic curve, by looking at the syzygies of its canonical embedding. We extend Voisin’s results on syzygies of K3 sections, to the case of K3 surfaces with arbitrary Picard lattice. This, coupled with results of Voisin and Hirschowitz–Ramanan, provides a complete solution to Green’s conjecture for smooth curves on arbitrary K3 surfaces.

Abstract We define a canonical line bundle over the slit tangent bundle of a manifold, and define a Lagrangian section to be a homogeneous section of this line bundle. When a regularity condition is satisfied the Lagrangian section gives rise to local Finsler functions. For each such section we demonstrate how to construct a canonically parametrized family of geodesics, such that the geodesics of the local Finsler functions are reparametrizations.
