Deformation of canonical morphisms and the moduli of surfaces of general type

In this article we study the deformation of finite maps and show how to use this deformation theory to construct varieties with given invariants in a projective space. Among other things, we prove a criterion that determines when a finite map can be deformed to a one--to--one map. We use this criterion to construct new simple canonical surfaces with different $c_1^2$ and $χ$. Our general results enable us to describe some new components of the moduli of surfaces of general type. We also find infinitely many moduli spaces $\mathcal M_{(x',0,y)}$ having one component whose general point corresponds to a canonically embedded surface and another component whose general point corresponds to a surface whose canonical map is a degree 2 morphism.

On the bicanonical morphism of quadruple Galois canonical covers

In this article we study the bicanonical map $ϕ_2$ of quadruple Galois canonical covers X of surfaces of minimal degree. We show that $ϕ_2$ has diverse behavior and exhibit most of the complexities that are possible for a bicanonical map of surfaces of general type, depending on the type of X. There are cases in which $ϕ_2$ is an embedding, and if so happens, $ϕ_2$ embeds $X$ as a projectively normal variety, and cases in which $ϕ_2$ is not an embedding. If the latter, $ϕ_2$ is finite of degree 1, 2 or 4. We also study the canonical ring of X, proving that it is generated in degree less than or equal to 3 and finding the number of generators in each degree. For generators of degree 2 we find a nice general formula which holds for canonical covers of arbitrary degrees. We show that this formula depends only on the geometric and the arithmetic genus of X.

Very Ampleness and Higher Syzygies for Algebraic Surfaces and Calabi-Yau Threefolds

This work consists of two parts. In the first part we develop new techniques to compute Koszul cohomology groups for several classes of varieties. As applications we prove results on projective normality and syzygies for algebraic surfaces. From more general results we obtain in particular the following: a) Mukai's conjecture (and stronger variants of it) regarding projective normality and normal presentation for surfaces with Kodaira dimension 0, and uniform bounds for higher syzygies associated to adjoint linear series, b) effective bounds along the lines of Mukai's conjecture regarding projective normality and normal presentation for surfaces of positive Kodaira dimension, and, c) results on projective normality for pluricanonical models of surfaces of general type (recovering and strengthening results by Ciliberto) and generalizations of them to higher syzygies. In the second part we prove results on very ampleness, projective normality and higher syzygies for both singular and smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds. The general results that we prove are analogues of the results of St. Donat for K3 surfaces. From these general results we obtain bounds very close to Fujita's conjecture regarding very ampleness of powers of an ample line bundle A (for instance, if A^3 is greater than 1, our bound is one short of Fujita's). We generalize our results on very ampleness and projective normality to higher syzygies.
