Following a suggestion of Jordan Ellenberg, we study measures of complexity for self-correspondences of some classes of varieties. We also answer a question of Rhyd concerning curves sitting in the square of a very general hyperelliptic curve.

We study the second fundamental form of the Siegel metric in $mathcal A_5$ restricted to the locus of intermediate Jacobians of cubic threefolds. We prove that the image of this second fundamental form, which is known to be non-trivial, is contained in the kernel of a suitable multiplication map. Some ingredients are: the conic bundle structure of cubic threefolds, Prym theory, Gaussian maps and Jacobian ideals.

This note presents some properties of the variety of planes $F_2(X)subset G(3,7)$ of a cubic $5$-fold $Xsubset mathbb P^6$. A cotangent bundle exact sequence is first derived from the remark made by Iliev and Manivel that $F_2(X)$ sits as a Lagrangian subvariety of the variety of lines of a cubic $4$-fold, which is a hyperplane section of $X$. Using the sequence, the Gauss map of $F_2(X)$ is then proven to be an embedding. The last section is devoted to the relation between the variety of osculating planes of a cubic $4$-fold and the variety of planes of the associated cyclic cubic $5$-fold.

We use a classification result of Chenevier and Lannes for algebraic automorphic representations together with a conjectural correspondence with $ell$-adic absolute Galois representations to determine the Euler characteristics (with values in the Grothendieck group of such representations) of $overline{mathcal M}_{3,n}$ and $mathcal M_{3,n}$ for $n leq 14$ and of local systems $mathbb{V}_{lambda}$ on $mathcal{A}_3$ for $|lambda| leq 16$.

We analyze the geometry of some $p$-adic Deligne--Lusztig spaces $X_w(b)$ introduced in [Iva21] attached to an unramified reductive group ${bf G}$ over a non-archimedean local field. We prove that when ${bf G}$ is classical, $b$ basic and $w$ Coxeter, $X_w(b)$ decomposes as a disjoint union of translates of a certain integral $p$-adic Deligne--Lusztig space. Along the way we extend some observations of DeBacker and Reeder on rational conjugacy classes of unramified tori to the case of extended pure inner forms, and prove a loop version of Frobenius-twisted Steinberg's cross section.

We study Dolgachev elliptic surfaces with a double and a triple fiber and find explicit equations of two new pairs of fake projective plane with $21$ automorphisms, thus finishing the task of finding explicit equations of fake projective planes with this automorphism group. This includes, in particular, the fake projective plane discovered by J. Keum.

To each complex composition algebra $mathbb{A}$, there associates a projective symmetric manifold $X(mathbb{A})$ of Picard number one, which is just a smooth hyperplane section of the following varieties ${rm Lag}(3,6), {rm Gr}(3,6), mathbb{S}_6, E_7/P_7.$ In this paper, it is proven that these varieties are rigid, namely for any smooth family of projective manifolds over a connected base, if one fiber is isomorphic to $X(mathbb{A})$, then every fiber is isomorphic to $X(mathbb{A})$.

The surface of lines in a cubic fourfold intersecting a fixed line splits motivically into two parts, one of which resembles a K3 surface. We define the analogue of the Beauville-Voisin class and study the push-forward map to the Fano variety of all lines with respect to the natural splitting of the Bloch-Beilinson filtration introduced by Mingmin Shen and Charles Vial.

We extend the algebraic K-stability theory to projective klt pairs with a big anticanonical class. While in general such a pair could behave pathologically, it is observed in this note that K-semistability condition will force them to have a klt anticanonical model, whose stability property is the same as the original pair.

K3 surfaces have been studied from many points of view, but the positivity of the cotangent bundle is not well understood. In this paper we explore the surprisingly rich geometry of the projectivised cotangent bundle of a very general polarised K3 surface $S$ of degree two. In particular, we describe the geometry of a surface $D_S subset mathbb{P}(Omega_S)$ that plays a similar role to the surface of bitangents for a quartic in $mathbb{P}^3$.
