We study the ramification divisors of projections of a smooth projective variety onto a linear subspace of the same dimension. We prove that the ramification divisors vary in a maximal dimensional family for a large class of varieties. Going further, we study the map that associates to a linear projection its ramification divisor. We show that this map is dominant for most (but not all!) varieties of minimal degree, using (linked) limit linear series of higher rank. We find the degree of this map in some cases, extending the classical appearance of Catalan numbers in the geometry of rational normal curves, and give a geometric explanation of its fibers in terms of torsion points of naturally occurring elliptic curves in the case of the Veronese surface and the quartic rational surface scroll.

Motivated by the realizability problem for principal tropical divisors with a fixed ramification profile, we explore the tropical geometry of the double ramification locus in $mathcal{M}_{g,n}$.There are two ways to define a tropical analogue of the double ramification locus: one as a locus of principal divisors, the other as a locus of finite effective ramified covers of a tree. We show that both loci admit a structure of a generalized cone complex in $M_{g,n}^{trop}$, with the latter contained in the former. We prove that the locus of principal divisors has cones of codimension zero in $M_{g,n}^{trop}$, while the locus of ramified covers has the expected codimension $g$. This solves the deformation-theoretic part of the realizability problem for principal divisors, reducing it to the so-called Hurwitz existence problem for covers of a fixed ramification type.
We use recent results by Bainbridge-Chen-Gendron-Grushevsky-Moeller on compactifications of strata of abelian differentials to give a comprehensive solution to the realizability problem for effective tropical canonical divisors in equicharacteristic zero. Given a pair $(Gamma, D)$ consisting of a stable tropical curve $Gamma$ and a divisor $D$ in the canonical linear system on $Gamma$, we give a purely combinatorial condition to decide whether there is a smooth curve $X$ over a non-Archimedean field whose stable reduction has $Gamma$ as its dual tropical curve together with a effective canonical divisor $K_X$ that specializes to $D$. Along the way, we develop a moduli-theoretic framework to understand Bakers specialization of divisors from algebraic to tropical curves as a natural toroidal tropicalization map in the sense of Abramovich-Caporaso-Payne.
In this short note, we extend the results of [Alexeev-Orlov, 2012] about Picard groups of Burniat surfaces with $K^2=6$ to the cases of $2le K^2le 5$. We also compute the semigroup of effective divisors on Burniat surfaces with $K^2=6$. Finally, we construct an exceptional collection on a nonnormal semistable degeneration of a 1-parameter family of Burniat surfaces with $K^2=6$.
Let X be a nonsingular projective algebraic variety, and let S be a line bundle on X. Let A = (a_1,..., a_n) be a vector of integers. Consider a map f from a pointed curve (C,x_1,...,x_n) to X satisfying the following condition: the line bundle f*(S) has a meromorphic section with zeroes and poles exactly at the marked points x_i with orders prescribed by the integers a_i. A compactification of the space of maps based upon the above condition is given by the moduli space of stable maps to rubber over X. The main result of the paper is an explicit formula (in tautological classes) for the push-forward of the virtual fundamental class of the moduli space of stable maps to rubber over X via the forgetful morphism to the moduli space of stable maps to X. In case X is a point, the result here specializes to Pixtons formula for the double ramification cycle. Applications of the new formula, viewed as calculating double ramification cycles with target X, are given.
In the framework of Special Bohr - Sommerfeld geometry it was established that an ample divisor in compact algebraic variety can define almost canonically certain real submanifold which is lagrangian with respect to the corresponding Kahler form. It is natural to call it lagrangian shadow; below we emphasize this correspondence and present some simple examples, old and new. In particular we show that for irreducible divisors from the linear system $vert - frac{1}{2} K_{F^3} vert$ on the full flag variety $F^3$ their lagrangian shadows are Gelfand - Zeytlin type lagrangian 3 - spheres.
