Abstract

In the Hilbert scheme of points on a scheme X there is an open subset parameterizing distinct points. The closure of that open set is by definition the good component. When X is flat over the base, we show that a certain blow-up of the symmetric product of X is the good component. The center of the blow-up we describe by giving generators for its defining ideal. In the non-flat case we obtain similar result by replacing the symmetric product with the divided power product. For smooth surfaces X the good component equals the Hilbert scheme of points.

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.
