Deformations of covers, Brill-Noether theory, and wild ramification

Brian Osserman

In this paper, we give a simple description of the deformations of a map between two smooth curves with partially prescribed branching, in the cases that both curves are fixed, and…

The generalized Verschiebung map for curves of genus 2

Brian Osserman

Let C be a smooth curve, and M_r(C) the coarse moduli space of vector bundles of rank r and trivial determinant on C. We examine the generalized Verschiebung map V_r: M_r(C^(p)) --…

Mochizuki's crys-stable bundles: a lexicon and applications

Brian Osserman

Mochizuki's work on torally crys-stable bundles has extensive implications for the theory of logarithmic connections on vector bundles of rank 2 on curves, once the language is tra…

Frobenius-unstable bundles and p-curvature

Brian Osserman

We use the theory of p-curvature of connections to analyze stable vector bundles of rank 2 on curves of genus 2 which pull back to unstable bundles under the Frobenius morphism. We…

Logarithmic connections with vanishing p-curvature

Brian Osserman

We examine logarithmic connections with vanishing p-curvature on smooth curves by studying their kernels, describing them in terms of formal local decomposition. We then apply our…

A limit linear series moduli scheme

Brian Osserman

We develop a new, more functorial construction for the basic theory of limit linear series, which provides a compactification of the Eisenbud-Harris theory, and shows promise for g…
