چکیده

We answer the first non-classical case of a question of J. Harris from the 1983 ICM: what is the largest possible dimension of a complete subvariety of Mg ? Working over a base field with characteristic 0 or greater then 3 we prove that there are no projective surfaces in the moduli space of curves of genus 4; thus proving that the largest possible dimension of a projective subvariety in M4 is 1.

On two generalizations of semi-projective modules: SGQ-projective and $pi$-semi-projective

Let $R$ be a ring and $M$ a right $R$-module with $S=End_R(M)$. A module $M$ is called semi-projective if for any epimorphism $f:Mrightarrow N$, where $N$ is a submodule of $M$, and for any homomorphism $g: Mrightarrow N$, there exists $h:Mrightarrow M$ such that $fh=g$. In this paper, we study SGQ-projective and $pi$-semi-projective modules as two generalizations of semi-projective modules. A ...

2 3 Se p 20 05 A FAMILY OF MARKED CUBIC SURFACES AND THE ROOT SYSTEM

We define and study a family of cubic surfaces in the projectivized tangent bundle over a four dimensional projective space associated to the root system D 5. The 27 lines are rational over the base and we determine the classifying map to the moduli space of marked cubic surfaces. This map has degree two and we use it to get short proofs for some results on the Chow group of the moduli space of...

The first examples of complete projective connections are uncovered: on surfaces, normal projective connections whose geodesics are all closed and embedded are complete. On manifolds of any dimension, normal projective connections induced from complete affine connections with slowly decaying positive Ricci curvature are complete.

Starting from suitable tableaux over finite dimensional Lie algebras, we provide a scheme for producing involutive linear Pfaffian systems related to various classes of submanifolds in homogeneous spaces which constitute integrable systems. These include isothermic surfaces, Willmore surfaces, projective minimal surfaces, and other classical soliton surfaces. Completely integrable equations suc...
