weak (?) valuative criterion for properness
In the article "On the Kodaira Dimension of the Moduli Space of Curves" by J. Harris and D. Mumford, to prove that
$\overline{H}_{k,b}$ is proper over Spec $\mathbb{C}$, the authors refer to ...

When is the morphism from the Hilbert scheme to the moduli scheme of stable sheaves an isomorphism?
Consider over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $(X,\mathcal{O}(1))$ be a smooth projective scheme with an ample polarisation. Let $P(t):=\chi(X,\mathcal{O}(t))$ denote the Hilbert polynomial of $\mathcal{O}_X$. ...

Is the universal object over a Hilbert scheme connected?
Hartshorne proved in his thesis that if $S$ is connected, then the Hilbert scheme $\operatorname{Hilb}^p=\operatorname{Hilb}^p(\mathbb{P}^n_S/S)$ is too (where $p\in \mathbb{Q}[z]$). Can the same be ...

Lifting a morphism along quotient of a group action
Let $X$ and $Y$ be complex projective varieties. Assume there is a finite group $G$ acting on $Y$ and we denote the quotient projective variety by $Y/G$. We have a morphism of $\mathcal{Hom}$-schemes ...

When Hom scheme has projective components?
The Hom scheme of two projective varieties over some field is constructed as an open subfunctor of the Hilbert scheme of the product of the two schemes by Grothendieck. So it is a countable union of ...

On non-abelian Lefschetz hyperplane theorem
This paper studies the maps of the form $Hom(X,Y)\rightarrow Hom(D,Y)$ (where $D$ is an ample divisor on $X$) and gives conditions that when it is an isomorphism. This is called non-Abelian Lefschetz ...

A Subfunctor of Quot-functor compatible with pullbacks
Let $X$ be a smooth projective irreducible algebraic curve over field $k$. For $d,r,k,m >0$ the representable Quot scheme $\mathcal {Quot}_X^{r,d}(\mathcal{O}_X(m)^k)$ is given for
any test scheme $...

Fibers of the Hilbert-Chow morphism vs local punctual Hilbert schemes
Let $X$ be a curve over a scheme $k$: Let $H_{n,X}$ be the punctual scheme of $X$ parametrizing finite subschemes of degree $n$, and le $\varphi_{n,X}: H_{n,X} \rightarrow X^{(n)}$ be the Hilbert-Chow ...

Families of ideal sheaves: What's the correct definition?
I'm looking at Bridgeland's paper "Flops and Derived categories" and I got confused on what he meant by a family of ideal sheaves.
Let $Y$ be a scheme, and let $S$ be another scheme. A ...

Curves and trisecant lines
We know that rational normal curves and elliptic normal curves have no trisecant lines. For the "next" case, this is still true. That is, a nondegenerate curve of degree $d\geq 5$ and genus $2$ in $\...

Transversality of quadrics containing a projective curve
Let $C$ be a curve of genus $g$ and $L$ a $g^r_d$ on it and assume that we are in the range ${r+2\choose 2}>2d-g+1$. If $C$ and $L$ are chosen to be general then by the maximal rank conjecture (...

Choosing a group action to do GIT of hypersurfaces
When studying GIT stability of hypersurfaces $d$ of $\mathbb P^n$ we look at the Hilbert Scheme $H=\mathbb P^N$ parametrizing homogeneous polynomials $f_d(x_0,\ldots,x_n)$ of degree $d$. There is ...

Singular locus of a Hilbert scheme
Consider the Hilbert scheme $H$ of conics in $\mathbb{P}^3$. It is easy to see that there exists a closed subscheme $H'$ of $H$ parametrizing $2$ lines intersecting at a point. This can be seen as the ...
