We study hyperbolicity for quasi-projective varieties where the boundary divisor consists of n+1 numerically parallel effective divisors on a complex projective variety of dimension n, allowing non-empty intersection. Under explicit local…
We prove that the determinantal complexity of a hypersurface of degree $d > 2$ is bounded below by one more than the codimension of the singular locus, provided that this codimension is at least $5$. As a result, we obtain that the…
We show that smooth curves in the same biliaison class on a hypersurface in $\mathbf{P}^3$ with ordinary singularities are linearly equivalent. We compute the invariants $h^0(\mathscr{I}_C(d))$, $h^1(\mathscr{I}_C(d))$ and…
We present a computational scheme that derives a global polynomial level set parametrisation for smooth closed surfaces from a regular surface-point set and prove its uniqueness. This enables us to approximate a broad class of smooth…
We prove that a generic second order differential equation in the projective plane has no algebraic solutions when the bidegree is big enough. We also proof an analogous result for webs on $\mathbb{P}}^{2}$.
We find sharp upper bounds on the order of the automorphism group of a hypersurface in complex projective space in every dimension and degree. In each case, we prove that the hypersurface realizing the upper bound is unique up to…
This is an expanded version of the two papers "Interpolation of Varieties of Minimal Degree" and "Interpolation Problems: Del Pezzo Surfaces." It is well known that one can find a rational normal curve in $\mathbb P^n$ through $n+3$ general…
Since the works of Krasnov and Scheiderer, there has been an interest in studying effective totally real divisors on a curve X defined over a real closed field, i.e., effective divisors supported on the real locus. Scheiderer proved that,…
Let $X^n$ be a nonsingular hypersurface of degree $d\geq 2$ in the projective space $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $q$ elements. We prove a Homma-Kim conjecture on a upper bound about the number of…
We study a tropical analogue of the projective dual variety of a hypersurface. When $X$ is a curve in $\mathbb{P}^2$ or a surface in $\mathbb{P}^3$, we provide an explicit description of $\text{Trop}(X^*)$ in terms of $\text{Trop}(X)$, as…
We are interested in finding a nonlinear polynomial $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ that solves the minimal surface equation. Even though no explicit solution is found in this article, we investigate constraints that a polynomial solution must obey.…
Fix positive integers $n,r,d$. We show that if $n,r,d$ satisfy a suitable inequality, then any smooth hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ defined over a finite field of characteristic $p$ sufficiently large contains a rational $r$-plane.…
We show that given a smooth projective variety X over C with dim(X) > 2, an ample line bundle O(1) on X and an integer n > 1, any n distinct points on a generic hypersurface of degree d in X are linearly independent in CH_0(X) if d >> 0.…
Let $\pi:Z\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ be a general minimal $n$-fold conic bundle with a hypersurface $B_Z\subset\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ of degree $d$ as discriminant. We prove that if $d\geq 4n+1$ then $-K_Z$ is not pseudo-effective, and that if…
Classes of polynomial differential equations of degree n are considered. An explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients are given which implies that each equation in the class has exactly n complex periodic solutions. In most of…
Consider a component of the Hilbert scheme whose general point corresponds to a degree d genus g smooth irreducible and nondegenerate curve in a projective variety X. We give lower bounds for the dimension of such a component when X is P^3,…
We study projective surfaces $X \subset \mathbb{P}^r$ (with $r \geq 5$) of maximal sectional regularity and degree $d > r$, hence surfaces for which the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity $\reg(C)$ of a general hyperplane section curve $C = X…
We give an explicit presentation of the module of differentials of order $n$ of a finitely generated algebra via a higher-order Jacobian matrix. We use the presentation to study some aspects of this module in the case of hypersurfaces. More…
We show that for every smooth generic projective hypersurface $X\subset\mathbb P^{n+1}$, there exists a proper subvariety $Y\subsetneq X$ such that $\operatorname{codim}_X Y\ge 2$ and for every non constant holomorphic entire map…
In this paper we prove that, for any $n\ge 3$, there exist infinitely many $r\in \N$ and for each of them a smooth, connected curve $C_r$ in $\P^r$ such that $C_r$ lies on exactly $n$ irreducible components of the Hilbert scheme…
