Abstract

We study the generalized Lam'e equation (GLE) on an elliptic curve $E$ with multiple regular singularities $\mathbf{p} = (p_i)_{i = 1}^r$ of weights $\mathbf{n} = (n_i)_{i = 1}^r$. By analyzing the locus admitting quasi-periodic solutions, we construct two fundamental algebraic curves: (i) The generalized Lam'e curve (GLC), $\mathcal{Y}_{\mathbf{n}, \mathbf{p}}$, which lies in an affine bundle over $\operatorname{Sym}^n E$ for total weight $n:=\sum n_i \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$ and parametrizes generalized Hermite--Halphen ansatz solutions. (ii) The log-free curve, $V_{\mathbf{n}, \mathbf{p}}$, a non-complete intersection variety arising when all $n_i \in \frac{1}{2}\mathbb{N}$, which we prove is a reduced curve, confirming a conjecture of Wang. We analyze the GLC as an algebraic family over the pole configuration space. By studying the addition map$$σ\colon \operatorname{Sym}^n E \longrightarrow E,$$where we establish a generically finite, universal degree formula, we show that the geometry of boundary degenerations under pole collisions perfectly mirrors the tensor algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{C})$-modules within the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$. This provides the local structural limits needed to establish the global flatness of the GLC. Furthermore, we develop a framework of twisted isomonodromic deformations and construct $(\mathbf{n}, \mathbf{p})$-deformed pre-modular forms parameterized by twisted monodromy data $(t,s)$. Their vanishing solves the underlying monodromy problem and factorizes along boundary strata, allowing an arbitrary configuration to be continuously deformed down to the classical Lam'e equation. Finally, using an asymptotic scaling technique, we completely solve the Treibich conjecture for $r=2$ symmetric pairs, extend it to $r \leq 4$, and propose a general formula enumerating symmetric finite-gap KdV potentials for all $r$.

Lawson--Deligne Classes and Applications

We construct the integral Lawson--Deligne map of weight $q=n-p-k-1$ on smooth complex projective $n$-folds using filtered currents. It lifts the Friedlander--Mazur cycle class, recovers the reduced generalized Abel--Jacobi invariant on homologically trivial classes, and is compatible with algebraic correspondences. A Picard--Fuchs separation argument applied to the conic and van Geemen normal functions on the mirror quintic determines explicit regulator subspaces modulo the full rational period group. For prescribed elliptic moduli and a suitable mirror-quintic fiber, the subspace generated by their $a$- and $b$-loop products has dimension twice the $\Q$-dimension of the period-monomial space. Moduli $i\sqrt{\ell_j}$ for distinct primes $\ell_j$ give $2^{k+1}$ independent images on varieties of dimension $p+k+2$; one repeated imaginary quadratic modulus gives dimension four for every $k\geq1$. Compatibility with known projective-bundle and blow-up decompositions yields independent exceptional subspaces on smooth rational varieties. We also compare the higher Chow composite with the Bloch--KLM regulator after lowering the Hodge filtration. The KLM representative reduces to a cut-current class, and equality with the Lawson composite is proved in degree zero and for constant-unit decomposable classes. The general positive-degree comparison is reduced to an explicit filtered-realization condition.

Complete quasimaps to $\mathsf{Bl}_{\mathbb{P}^s}(\mathbb{P}^r)$

We introduce a moduli space of ``complete quasimaps'' to $\mathsf{Bl}_{\mathbb{P}^s}(\mathbb{P}^r)$. The construction, following previous work for curves on projective spaces, essentially proceeds by blowing up Ciocan-Fontanine--Kim's space of quasimaps at loci where sections of line bundles are linearly dependent. We conjecture that tautological intersection numbers on these moduli spaces give enumerative counts of curves of fixed complex structure on $X$ subject to general incidence conditions, in contrast with traditional compactifications of the moduli spaces of maps. A result of Farkas guarantees that these spaces are pure of expected dimension. The conjecture is proven in dimension 2, where the main input is a Brill-Noether theorem for general curves on toric surfaces.
