Gianluca Pacienza: Recent progress on the Morrison-Kawamata cone conjecture
The Coble cubic of a Jacobian abelian surface A is the unique cubic which is singular along A in its natural embedding in P^8. We show how to use this cubic to build a duality between two birational models of the Kummer fourfold of A. Along the way, we also construct a non-natural automorphism on the Hilbert square of A. This is joint work with Pietro Beri, Franco Giovenzana and Angel Rios.
