Torelli theorem for the moduli spaces of twisted vector bundles on smooth projective curves

Abstract

We prove Torelli theorems for moduli space of twisted vector bundles on smooth projective curves over an arbitrary field of characteristic $\neq 2$. A twisted Hitchin construction recovers the curve in higher rank and degree, with partial recovery of the twisting class. For rank two with trivial determinant, we recover the curve and the Brauer class from the moduli stack through an ordered Kummer cover and its polarized Jacobian torsor. For odd determinant on hyperelliptic curves, residual gerbes give a relative Desale--Ramanan construction without an actual determinant line bundle over the ground field. An intrinsic polarized Fano torsor recovers the curve and the class, and a corrected polarization obstruction recovers the determinant gerbe. We also give a twisted Newstead construction in genus two, with an explicit descent condition for its converse, and period--index applications. This is the second part in a series of two papers.

A cluster criterion for potential degeneracy of superelliptic curves

Let $K$ be a field with a discrete valuation; let $p$ be a prime; and let $C$ be the curve defined by an equation of the form $y^p = f(x)$. We show that the curve $C$ has a model over an algebraic extension of $K$ whose special fiber consists of genus-$0$ components and has at worst nodal singularities if and only if the cluster data of the roots of $f$ satisfies a certain criterion, and when these hold, we show explicitly how to build the minimal regular model of $C$. We develop an interpretation of cluster data in terms of a convex hull in the Berkovich projective line and express the above results directly in terms of this convex hull.

A note on complex Lie Algebras isomorphic to their conjugate

A real Lie algebra defines by extension of scalars a complex Lie algebra that is isomorphic to its Galois conjugate. In this paper, we are interested in the converse property: given a complex Lie algebra that is isomorphic to its conjugate, is it defined over the real numbers? We prove the existence of a $10$-dimensional nilpotent complex Lie algebra for which the answer is negative, disproving a recent conjecture by Deré. In addition, we compute the generic obstruction to this descent problem in terms of Brauer groups.
