We survey Lagrangian fibrations of holomorphic symplectic varieties, both compact and non-compact, whose fibres are Jacobians and Prym varieties.

Unique map connects curve pairs to abelian varieties.

A correspondence between 1) rank 2 completely integrable systems of Jacobians of algebraic curves and 2) (holomorphically) symplectic surfaces was established in a previous paper by the first author. A more general abelian variety that occurs as a Liouville torus of integrable systems is a prym variety associated to a …

Describes spectral data for singular fibres of a specific Hitchin system.

This paper is devoted to the classification of connected components of Prym eigenform loci in the strata H(2,2)^odd and H(1,1,2) in the Abelian differentials bundle in genus 3. These loci, discovered by McMullen are GL^+(2,R)-invariant submanifolds (of complex dimension 3) that project to the locus of Riemann surfaces …

Proves effective Chen ranks conjecture for Koszul modules.

We determine the action of the Torelli group on the equivariant cohomology of the space of flat SL(2,C) connections on a closed Riemann surface. We show that the trivial part of the action contains the equivariant cohomology of the even component of the space of flat PSL(2,C) connections. The non-trivial part consists …

No primitive Teichmüller curves found in Prym(2,2).

Study shows periodic points of Prym eigenforms in specific genera.

This paper is devoted to the classification of GL^+(2,R)-orbit closures of surfaces in the intersection of the Prym eigenform locus with various strata of quadratic differentials. We show that the following dichotomy holds: an orbit is either closed or dense in a connected component of the Prym eigenform locus. The pro…

We prove that for each discriminant $D \equiv 0,1 \mod 4, D \not\in\{4,9\}$, the corresponding Prym eigenform locus discovered by McMullen in the stratum $\mathcal{H}(6)$ is connected. Thus, the projection of any of those loci in the moduli space is a single Teichmüller curve. Along the way, we obtain a classification …

Researchers compute cohomology of mapping class groups with Prym representations, showing instability for large genus.

The minimal stratum in Prym loci have been the first source of infinitely many primitive, but not algebraically primitive Teichmueller curves. We show that the stratum Prym(2,1,1) contains no such Teichmueller curve and the stratum Prym(2,2) at most 92 such Teichmueller curves. This complements the recent progress esta…

Researchers study Prym representations for handlebody groups, focusing on cyclic cases.

Computes constants for specific geometric structures.

To each non-isotropic almost-complex immersion of a 2-torus into $S ^ 6$ we associate an algebraic curve, called the spectral curve, and a linear flow in the intersection of two Prym varieties on this spectral curve. We show that generically the spectral curve is smooth and compute the dimension of the moduli space o…

The B-quadrilateral lattice (BQL) provides geometric interpretation of Miwa's discrete BKP equation within the quadrialteral lattice (QL) theory. After discussing the projective-geometric properties of the lattice we give the algebro-geometric construction of the BQL ephasizing the role of Prym varieties and the corres…

This paper deals with Prym eigenforms which are introduced previously by McMullen. We prove several results on the directional flow on those surfaces, related to complete periodicity (introduced by Calta). More precisely we show that any homological direction is algebraically periodic, and any direction of a regular cl…

Prym-Teichmüller curves $W_D(4)$ constitute the main examples of known primitive Teichmüller curves in the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_3$. We determine, for each non-square discriminant $D>1$, the number and type of orbifold points in $W_D(4)$. These results, together with the formulas of Lanneau-Nguyen and Möller for th…

Study finite group actions on Higgs bundle moduli spaces.

Given a Prym-Teichmüller curve in $\mathcal{M}_3$, this note provides an invariant that sorts the cusp prototypes of Lanneau and Nguyen by component. This can be seen as an analogue of McMullen's genus $2$ spin invariant, although the source of this invariant is different. Moreover, we describe the Galois action on the…

Algorithm finds periodic points on Veech surfaces.

We review recent work on the compactification of the moduli space of Hitchin's self-duality equation. We study the degeneration behavior near the ends of this moduli space in a set of generic directions by showing how limiting configurations can be desingularized. Following ideas of Hitchin, we can relate the top bound…

For each discriminant $D>1$, McMullen constructed the Prym-Teichmüller curves $W_D(4)$ and $W_D(6)$ in $\mathcal{M}_{3}$ and $\mathcal{M}_{4}$, which constitute one of the few known infinite families of geometrically primitive Teichmüller curves. In the present paper, we determine for each $D$ the number and type of or…

The moduli space of genus 3 translation surfaces with a single zero has two connected components. We show that in the odd connected component H^{odd}(4) the only GL^+(2,R) orbit closures are closed orbits, the Prym locus Q(3,-1^3), and H^{odd}(4). Together with work of Matheus-Wright, this implies that there are only f…

The paper calculates the size of origami orbit graphs in complex surfaces.

In this paper, we classify three-dimensional complex Abelian varieties isogenous to a product $A_1 \times A_2$, where one of the factors admits real multiplication by a real quadratic order $\mathcal{O}_D$ of discriminant $D$. We show that the moduli space $X_D^{(3)}$ of these varieties essentially is the disjoint unio…

This paper is devoted to the classification of the infinite families of Teichmuller curves generated by Prym eigenforms of genus 3 having a single zero. These curves were discovered by McMullen. The main invariants of our classification is the discriminant D of the corresponding quadratic order, and the generators of t…

We study the rational Picard group of the projectivized moduli space of holomorphic n-differentials on complex genus g stable curves. We define (n - 1) natural classes in this Picard group that we call Prym-Tyurin classes. We express these classes as linear combinations of boundary divisors and the divisor of n-differe…

A well-known conjecture asserts that the mapping class group of a surface (possibly with punctures/boundary) does not virtually surject onto $\Z$ if the genus of the surface is large. We prove that if this conjecture holds for some genus, then it also holds for all larger genera. We also prove that if there is a counte…

New groups found that don't virtually algebraically fiber, related to mapping class group orbits.

Origami graphs' Euler characteristics grow as origami complexity increases.

In this paper we show that all totally real superconformal minimal tori in $CP^2$ correspond with doubly-periodic finite gap solutions of the Tzitzeica equation $ω_{z{\overline z}}=e^{-2ω}-e^ω$ Using the results on the Tzitzeica equation in integrable system theory, we describe explicitly all these tori by Prym-theta…

We calculate the Masur-Veech volume of the gothic locus $\mathcal{G}$ in the stratum $\mathcal{H}(2^{3})$ of genus four. Our method is based on the use of the formulae for the Euler characteristics of gothic Teichmüller curves to determine the number of lattice points of given area. We also use this method to recalcula…

We define on any affine invariant orbifold M a foliation FM that generalises the isoperiodic foliation on strata of the moduli space of translation surfaces and study the dynamics of its leaves in the rank 1 case. We establish a criterion that ensures the density of the leaves and provide two applications of this crite…

The paper shows how certain complex projective varieties can be broken down into simpler types.

Study of braid varieties and their Legendrian isotopy.

We introduce the fibred toric varieties as equivariant $\mathbb{C}P^r$ bundles over lower dimensional toric varieties. An equivalent characterization is that the natural morphisms on them degenerate to bundle projections in the context of variation of toric varieties as GIT quotients. Our main observation is that these…

New proof of divisibility property for certain algebraic varieties.

The paper extends structure theorem to projective klt varieties with specific tangent sheaf properties.

We consider projective varieties with degenerate Gauss image whose focal hypersurfaces are non-reduced schemes. Examples of this situation are provided by the secant varieties of Severi and Scorza varieties. The Severi varieties are moreover characterized by a uniqueness property.
