Let N_d be the number of degree d, nodal, rational plane curves through 3d-1 points in the complex projective plane. The number of degree d>=3, nodal, elliptic plane curves with a fixed (general) j-invariant through 3d-1 points is found to…
A bottleneck of a smooth algebraic variety $X \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ is a pair of distinct points $(x,y) \in X$ such that the Euclidean normal spaces at $x$ and $y$ contain the line spanned by $x$ and $y$. The narrowness of bottlenecks is a…
In this paper we obtain an explicit formula for the number of curves in two dimensional complex projective space, of degree d, passing through d(d+3)/2-(k+1) generic points and having one node and one codimension k singularity, where k is…
Inside the symmetric product of a very general curve, we consider the codimension-one subvarieties of symmetric tuples of points imposing exceptional secant conditions on linear series on the curve of fixed degree and dimension. We compute…
The degree of a curve $C$ in a polarized abelian variety $(X,\lambda)$ is the integer $d=C\cdot\lambda$. When $C$ generates $X$, we find a lower bound on $d$ which depends on $n$ and the degree of the polarization $\lambda$. The smallest…
We determine set theoretic defining equations for the third secant variety of the Segre product of $n$ projective spaces, and from the proof of the main statement we derive an upper bound for the degrees of these equations.
We study the existence of some irreducible projective plane curves of degree~$8$ with some prescribed topological type of singularities in the algebraic and symplectic worlds.
We study Poncelet's Theorem in the four non-isomorphic finite projective planes of order 9. Among these planes, only the Desarguesian plane turns out to be a Poncelet plane, while the other three planes which are constructed over the…
Given a hypersurface in a complex projective space, we prove that the multidegrees of its toric polar map agree, up to sign, with the coefficients of the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a distinguished open set, namely the complement of…
Plane quartics containing the ten vertices of a complete pentalateral and limits of them are called L\"uroth quartics. The locus of singular L\"uroth quartics has two irreducible components, both of codimension two in $\P^{14}$. We compute…
Let $X\subset\mathbb P^{n+1}$ be a smooth complex projective hypersurface. In this paper we show that, if the degree of $X$ is large enough, then there exist global sections of the bundle of invariant jet differentials of order $n$ on $X$,…
We describe a computational proof that the fifth secant variety of the Segre product of five copies of the projective line is a codimension 2 complete intersection of equations of degree 6 and 16. Our computations rely on pseudo-randomness,…
The main goal of this work is to prove that every entire curve in a smooth hypersurface of degree greater than or equal to 97 in the complex projective space of dimension 4 must satisfy an algebraic differential equation of order 3. A…
The Marden theorem of geometry of polynomials and the great Poncelet theorem from projective geometry of conics by their classical beauty occupy very special places. Our main aim is to present a strong and unexpected relationship between…
Classification of curves in a projective space occupies minds of many mathematicians. First step in doing so is classification of curves on a given surface. This brings us to consideration of the nonsingular Del Pezzo Surface in $P^4_k.$ We…
We study how a smooth irreducible algebraic variety $X$ of dimension $n$ embedded in $\mathbb{C} \mathbb{P}^{m}$ (with $m \geq n+2$), which degree is $d$, can be recovered using two projections from unknown points onto unknown hyperplanes.…
We establish a full classification of degree $2$ codimension one distributions on $\mathbb{P}^3$ according to invariants of their tangent sheaves.
For each $1\leq n\leq6$ we present formulas for the number of $n-$nodal curves in an $n-$dimensional linear system on a smooth, projective surface. This yields in particular the numbers of rational curves in the system of hyperplane…
D.Bayer and D.Mumford introduced the degree complexity of a projective scheme for the given term order as the maximal degree of the reduced Gr\"{o}bner basis. It is well-known that the degree complexity with respect to the graded reverse…
We present a computational study of smooth curves of degree six in the real projective plane. In the Rokhlin-Nikulin classification, there are 56 topological types, refined into 64 rigid isotopy classes. We developed software that…
