Enriques surfaces with non-generic non-degeneracy

Riccardo Moschetti, Franco Rota, Luca Schaffler

We study the non-degeneracy invariant of complex Enriques surfaces in families. Our first main result shows that cannot increase under specializat…

Fineness and smoothness of a KSBA moduli of marked cubic surfaces

Hanlong Fang, Luca Schaffler, Xian Wu

By work of Gallardo-Kerr-Schaffler, it is known that Naruki's compactification of the moduli space of marked cubic surfaces is isomorphic to the normalization of the Kollár, Shephe…

An explicit wall crossing for the moduli space of hyperplane arrangements

Patricio Gallardo, Luca Schaffler

The moduli space of hyperplanes in projective space has a family of geometric and modular compactifications that parametrize stable hyperplane arrangements with respect to a weight…

Simplices osculating rational normal curves

Alessio Caminata, Enrico Carlini, Luca Schaffler

A classical result of von Staudt states that if eight planes osculate a twisted cubic curve and we divide them into two groups of four, then the eight vertices of the corresponding…

Compact moduli of Enriques surfaces with a numerical polarization of degree 2

Valery Alexeev, Philip Engel, D. Zack Garza +1

We describe a geometric, stable pair compactification of the moduli space of Enriques surfaces with a numerical polarization of degree 2, and identify it with a semitoroidal compac…

The non-degeneracy invariant of Brandhorst and Shimada's families of Enriques surfaces

Riccardo Moschetti, Franco Rota, Luca Schaffler

Brandhorst and Shimada described a large class of Enriques surfaces, called -generic, for which they gave generators for the automorphism groups and calculated the…

Determinantal varieties from point configurations on hypersurfaces

Alessio Caminata, Han-Bom Moon, Luca Schaffler

We consider the scheme parametrizing ordered points in projective space that lie on a common hypersurface of degree . We show that this scheme has…

Unimodal singularities and boundary divisors in the KSBA moduli of a class of Horikawa surfaces

Patricio Gallardo, Gregory Pearlstein, Luca Schaffler +1

Smooth minimal surfaces of general type with , , and constitute a fundamental example in the geography of algebraic surfaces, and the 28-dimensional moduli spac…

Gaussian likelihood geometry of projective varieties

Sandra Di Rocco, Lukas Gustafsson, Luca Schaffler

We explore the maximum likelihood degree of a homogeneous polynomial on a projective variety , , which generalizes the concept of Gaussian maximum likelih…

A computational view on the non-degeneracy invariant for Enriques surfaces

Riccardo Moschetti, Franco Rota, Luca Schaffler

For an Enriques surface , the non-degeneracy invariant retains information on the elliptic fibrations of and its polarizations. In the current paper, we int…

Families of pointed toric varieties and degenerations

Sandra Di Rocco, Luca Schaffler

The Losev-Manin moduli space parametrizes pointed chains of projective lines. In this paper we study a possible generalization to families of pointed degenerate toric varieties. Ge…

Point configurations, phylogenetic trees, and dissimilarity vectors

Alessio Caminata, Noah Giansiracusa, Han-Bom Moon +1

In 2004 Pachter and Speyer introduced the higher dissimilarity maps for phylogenetic trees and asked two important questions about their relation to the tropical Grassmannian. Mult…

Decomposition of Lagrangian classes on K3 surfaces

Kuan-Wen Lai, Yu-Shen Lin, Luca Schaffler

We study the decomposability of a Lagrangian homology class on a K3 surface into a sum of classes represented by special Lagrangian submanifolds, and develop criteria for it in ter…
