Suppose that $f:X\to C$ is a general Jacobian elliptic surface over ${\mathbb {C}}$ of irregularity $q$ and positive geometric genus $h$. Assume that $10 h>12(q-1)$, that $h>0$ and let $\overline {\mathcal {E}\ell \ell }$ denote the stack of generalized elliptic curves. (1) The moduli stack $\mathcal {JE}$ of such surfaces is smooth at the point $X$ and its tangent space $T$ there is naturally a direct sum of lines $(v_a)_{a\in Z}$, where $Z\subset C$ is the ramification locus of the classifying morphism $\phi :C\to \overline {\mathcal {E}\ell \ell }$ that corresponds to $X\to C$. (2) For each $a\in Z$ the map $\overline {\nabla }_{v_a}:H^{2,0}(X)\to H^{1,1}_{\rm prim}(X)$ defined by the derivative $per_*$ of the period map $per$ is of rank one. Its image is a line ${\mathbb {C}}[\eta _a]$ and its kernel is $H^0(X,\Omega ^2_X(-E_a))$, where $E_a=f^{-1}(a)$. (3) The classes $[\eta _a]$ form an orthogonal basis of $H^{1,1}_{\rm prim}(X)$ and $[\eta _a]$ is represented by a meromorphic $2$-form $\eta _a$ in $H^0(X,\Omega ^2_X(2E_a))$ of the second kind. (4) We prove a local Schottky theorem; that is, we give a description of $per_*$ in terms of a certain additional structure on the vector bundles that are involved. Assume further that $8h>10(q-1)$ and that $h\ge q+3$. (5) Given the period point $per(X)$ of $X$ that classifies the Hodge structure on the primitive cohomology $H^2_{\rm prim}(X)$ and the image of $T$ under $per_*$ we recover $Z$ as a subset of ${\mathbb {P}}^{h-1}$ and then, by quadratic interpolation, the curve $C$. (6) We prove a generic Torelli theorem for these surfaces. Everything relies on the construction, via certain kinds of Schiffer variations of curves, of certain variations of $X$ for which $per_*$ can be calculated. (In an earlier version of this paper we used variations constructed by Fay. However, Schiffer variations are slightly more powerful.)

Aims and Scope

We use the tropical geometry approach to compute absolute and relative enumerative invariants of complex surfaces which are$\mathbb {C} P^1$-bundles over an elliptic curve. We also show that the tropical multiplicity used to count curves can be refined by the standard Block–Göttsche refined multiplicity to give tropical refined invariants. We then give a concrete algorithm using floor diagrams to compute these invariants along with the associated interpretation as operators acting on some Fock space. The floor diagram algorithm allows one to prove the piecewise polynomiality of the relative invariants, and the quasi-modularity of their generating series.

We prove the integral Hodge conjecture for one-cycles on a principally polarized complex abelian variety whose minimal class is algebraic. In particular, the Jacobian of a smooth projective curve over the complex numbers satisfies the integral Hodge conjecture for one-cycles. The main ingredient is a lift of the Fourier transform to integral Chow groups. Similarly, we prove the integral Tate conjecture for one-cycles on the Jacobian of a smooth projective curve over the separable closure of a finitely generated field. Furthermore, abelian varieties satisfying such a conjecture are dense in their moduli space.

We state a conjecture that relates the derived category of smooth representations of a $p$-adic split reductive group with the derived category of (quasi-)coherent sheaves on a stack of L-parameters. We investigate the conjecture in the case of the principal block of ${\rm GL}_n$ by showing that the functor should be given by the derived tensor product with the family of representations interpolating the modified Langlands correspondence over the stack of L-parameters that is suggested by the work of Helm and of Emerton and Helm.

Aims and Scope. The aim of Compositio Mathematica is to publish fi rst-class mathematical research papers. By tradition the journal focuses on papers in the mainstream of pure mathematics. This includes the fi elds of algebra, number theory, topology, algebraic and diff erential geometry and (geometric) analysis. Papers on other topics are welcome if they are of interest not only to specialists. All contributions are required to meet high standards of quality and originality and are carefully screened by experts in the fi eld.

Crofton formulas on simply connected Riemannian space forms allow the volumes, or more generally the Lipschitz–Killing curvature integrals of a submanifold with corners, to be computed by integrating the Euler characteristic of its intersection with all geodesic submanifolds. We develop a framework of Crofton formulas with distributions replacing measures, which has in its core Alesker's Radon transform on valuations. We then apply this framework, and our recent Hadwiger-type classification, to compute explicit Crofton formulas for all isometry-invariant valuations on all pseudospheres, pseudo-Euclidean and pseudohyperbolic spaces. We find that, in essence, a single measure which depends analytically on the metric, gives rise to all those Crofton formulas through its distributional boundary values at parts of the boundary corresponding to the different indefinite signatures. In particular, the Crofton formulas we obtain are formally independent of signature.

We propose a variation of the classical Hilbert scheme of points, thedouble nested Hilbert scheme of points, which parametrizes flags of zero-dimensional subschemes whose nesting is dictated by a Young diagram. Over a smooth quasi-projective curve, we compute the generating series of topological Euler characteristic of these spaces, by exploiting the combinatorics of reversed plane partitions. Moreover, we realize this moduli space as the zero locus of a section of a vector bundle over a smooth ambient space, which therefore admits a virtual fundamental class. We apply this construction to the stable pair theory of a local curve, that is the total space of the direct sum of two line bundles over a curve. We show that the invariants localize to virtual intersection numbers on double nested Hilbert scheme of points on the curve, and that the localized contributions to the invariants are controlled by three universal series for every Young diagram, which can be explicitly determined after the anti-diagonal restriction of the equivariant parameters. Under the anti-diagonal restriction, the invariants are matched with the Gromov–Witten invariants of local curves of Bryan–Pandharipande, as predicted by the Maulik–Nekrasov–Okounkov–Pandharipande (MNOP) correspondence. Finally, we discuss$K$-theoretic refinements à la Nekrasov–Okounkov.
