Abstract

In 1991 V. Ginzburg observed that one can realize irreducible representations of the group $GL(n,C)$ in the cohomology of certain Springer's fibers for the group GL(d) (for all natural d). However, Ginzburg's construction of the action of GL(n) on this cohomology was a bit artificial (he defined the action of Chevalley generators of the Lie algebra gl(n) on the corresponding cohomology by certain explicit correspondences, following the work of A. Beilinson, G. Lusztig and R. MacPherson, who gave a similar construction of the quantum group $U_q(gl(n))$). In this note we give a very simple geometric definition of the action of the whole group GL(n,C) on the above cohomology and simplify the Ginzburg's results.

Good minimal models with nowhere vanishing holomorphic $1$-forms

Popa and Schnell show that any holomorphic 1-form on a smooth projective variety of general type has zeros. In this article, we show that a smooth good minimal model has a holomorphic 1-form without zero if and only if it admits an analytic fiber bundle structure over a positive dimensional abelian variety.

The automorphism groups of Kummer surfaces in characteristic two and their complex analogues

We calculate the automorphism group of the Kummer surface associated with a curve of genus 2 or the product of two elliptic curves in characteristic two under the assumption that the Kummer surface is a $K3$ surface. Moreover we discuss the complex $K3$ surfaces with the same Picard lattice as these Kummer surfaces. The paper has two appendices.

Algebraic Zhou valuations

In this paper, we generalize Zhou valuations, originally defined on complex domains, to the framework of general schemes. We demonstrate that an algebraic version of the Jonsson--Mustaţă conjecture is equivalent to the statement that every Zhou valuation is quasi-monomial. By introducing a mixed version of jumping numbers and Tian functions associated with valuations, we obtain characterizations of a valuation being a Zhou valuation or computing some jumping number using the Tian functions. Furthermore, we establish the correspondence between Zhou valuations in algebraic settings and their counterparts in analytic settings.
