My principal interest concerns actually the generalizations of the classical Maslov index as secondary characteristic classes, with applications to spontaneous symetry breaking of Yang-Mills fields following the dimensional reduction mechanism. In algebraic-geometric terms, certain homogeneous stable vector bundles on an algebraic variety correspond after dimensional reduction, using the results of Garcia-Prado and Bradlow, to a stable pair on the quotient variety. The geometric quantization problem that corresponds to the associated Yang-Mills-Higgs system depends on the higher dimensional Maslov classes and the problem is to find the relations which are between these naturally related structures.Publications:

The aim of this research plan is an investigation into the projective geometry of the moduli spaces of rank-2 vector bundles. We seek especially results on their ideals in certain known projective embeddings, as well as the geometry of their Brill-Noether subschemes. The principal case we propose to study is the moduli space {\cal SU}_C(2) of rank 2 vector bundles with trivial determinant, embedded in the 2\Theta-linear system. It is a locally factorial, irreducible, projective variety. Its non-stable part can be canonically identified to the Kummer variety Km(J) of J (if g \geq 3, Km(J) is precisely the singular locus of {\cal SU}_C(2)). Its Picard group is generated by a line bundle {\cal L}, which gives rise to a finite morphism \theta:{\cal SU}_C(2) \rightarrow |{\cal L}|^* \cong |2\Theta|.
There are very important things known about the structure of the morphism \theta. For example, if C has genus two, then \theta is an isomorphism of {\cal SU}_C(2) onto |2\Theta|\cong{\bf P}^3, if C is hyperelliptic of highere genus, then \theta is 2-to-1 onto a subvariety of |2\Theta| that can be described in an explicit way, and if C is not hyperelliptic of higher genus, \theta is of degree 1 onto its image.
If C has genus three, a result of Narasimhan and Ramanan says that \theta is an isomorphism to a special Heisenberg-invariant quartic Q_C\subset |2\Theta| \cong {\bf P}^7, called the Coble quartic of C. It is characterised by either of two properties: Q_C is the unique Heisenberg-invariant quartic containing Km(J) in its singular locus; and Q_C is the set of 2\Theta-divisors containig some translate of the image of the Abel-Jacobi map W_1 \subset J^1(C). In the genus four case, assuming that C has no vanishing theta-nulls, Oxbury and Pauly got two distinct hypersurfaces in |2\Theta| \cong {\bf P}^{15}: a unique Heisenberg-invariant quartic Q_C \subset |2\Theta| containing the image of {\cal SU}_C(2) in its singular locus, and G_C \subset |2\Theta|, the set of 2\Theta-divisors containig some translate of W_1 \subset J^1(C).
For higher-genus curves there is no similar result known up to now. It seems that one needs firstly to get a better understanding of the genus four case. There are several basic open questions about the hypersurfaces G_C and Q_C, which we propose to answer to. For example, is G_C a quartic? We could also try to deal with a converse problem: instead of asking whether such a given hypersurface has degree four, we can ask how can one construct quartics singular along {\cal SU}_C(2), and thus singular along Km(J) (Narasimhan and Ramanan conjectured that the moduli space is set-theoretically cut out by quartics, so one expects plenty)? It is possible G_C and Q_C to be elements in a special family of Heisenberg-invariant quartics, and it would be nice to find out what kind of canonical special families, containing Q_C and G_C among their members, can appear. We also propose to decide whether the singular locus of Q_C and the image of {\cal SU}_C(2) in |2\Theta| are coincident or not.

The use of syzygies in the study of Hibert schemes or moduli spaces. The first study which I would like to accomplish is that of certain Hilbert schemes of curves in P^3, beginning with the Hilbert schemes of degree 4 Cohen Macaulay curves. One of the difficult problem is the decomposition in connected or irreductible components. For degree up to 3 there is known in the literature that the Hilbert scheme is connected. The difficulty lies in the understandig of the curves with nilpotents. Possible collaboration with W. Decker, F.O. Schreyer and may be also other mathematicians.Publications:

Topics concerning the classification of projective embedded curves.
Let's denote by I'(d,g,n) (resp. I"(d,g,n)) the union of components of the Hilbert scheme H(d,g,n) corresponding to smooth, irreducible, non-degenerate (resp. linearly normal) curves in P^n.
P1: Find the integers (d,g,n), n > 2, such that I'(d,g,n) is nonempty.
P2: Find the integers (d,g,n), n > 2, such that I"(d,g,n) is nonempty.
P3: For each triplet such that I'(d,g,n) is nonempty, try to give its description ("good" components, "bad" components, irreducibility, ...).Collaborations:
I had collaborations with A. Lascu, Ph. Ellia (Ferrara), A. Hirschowitz (Nice), D. Laksov (Stokholm), J. Alexander (Angers), R. Strano (Catania) on the Problems P1 and P3. I have in present a project with J. Kleppe (Oslo) on P2.Proposed new (or continuation of old) collaborations with:
A. Hirschowitz (Nice), J. Kleppe (Oslo), Rosa Maria Miro-Roig (Barcelona), Ph. Ellia (Ferara), J. Alexander (Nice).I need short-term visits (1-2 weeks). If possible, I need a longer collaboration with A. Hirschowitz.
