The present paper gives an explicit classification of the isomorphism classes of non-hyperelliptic genus 4 curves over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. A non-hyperelliptic genus 4 curve lies on a quadric in $\mathbb{P^3}$…

The `linear orbit' of a plane curve of degree d is its orbit in the projective space of dimension d(d+3)/2 parametrizing such curves under the natural action of PGL(3). In this paper we compute the degree of the closure of the linear orbits…

Let ${\bf P}^n$ be the projective $n-$space over the complex numbers. In this note we show that an indecomposable rigid coherent sheaf on ${\bf P}^n$ has a trivial endomorphism algebra. This generalizes a result of Drezet for $n=2.$

We introduce one of the most beautiful algebraic varieties known, a quintic hypersurface in projective five-space, which is invariant under the action of the Weyl group of $E_6$. This variety is intricately related with many other moduli…

For each even, positive integer $n$, we define a rational self-map on the space of plane curves of degree $n$, using classical contravariants. In the case of plane quartics, we show that the degree of this map is 15. This answers a question…

The main contribution of this paper is a new column-by-column method for the decomposition of generating functions of convex polyominoes suitable for enumeration with respect to various statistics including but not limited to interior…

We analyze the complexity of fitting a variety, coming from a class of varieties, to a configuration of points in $\Bbb C^n$. The complexity measure, called the algebraic complexity, computes the Euclidean Distance Degree (EDdegree) of a…

The notion of higher order dual varieties of a projective variety is a natural generalization of the classical notion of projective duality, introduced by Piene in 1983. In this paper we study higher order dual varieties of projective toric…

We investigate the topological structures of Galois covers of surfaces of minimal degree (i.e., degree n) in n+1 dimensional complex projective space. We prove that for n is greater than or equal to 5, the Galois covers of any surfaces of…

We define a quadratically enriched count of rational curves in a given divisor class passing through a collection of points on a del Pezzo surface $S$ of degree $\geq 3$ over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2,3.$ When $S$ is…

Incidence varieties are spaces of $n$-tuples of points in the projective plane that satisfy a given set of collinearity conditions. We classify the components of incidence varieties and realization moduli spaces associated to configurations…

Let $C$ be an irreducible projective plane curve in the complex projective space ${\mathbb{P}}^2$. The classification of such curves, up to the action of the automorphism group $PGL(3,{\mathbb{C}})$ on ${\mathbb{P}}^2$, is a very difficult…

A quadric in $\R P^3$ cuts a curve of degree 6 on a cubic surface in $\R P^3$. The papers classifies the nonsingular curves cut in this way on non-singular cubic surfaces up to homeomorphism. Two issues new in the study related to the first…

We show that a general plane curve of degree at least 4 is uniquely determined by the full set of its bitangent lines. This problem has an elementary solution for degree at least 5, and the paper is almost entirely devoted to curves of…

A classical result of Boole shows that, in characteristic 0, the set of singular degree d hypersurfaces in P^N is a divisor of degree (N+1)(d-1)^N in the projective space of all hypersurfaces. We give here analogous formulae for complete…

In this paper, the problem of bounding the number of reducible curves in a pencil of algebraic plane curves is addressed. Unlike most of the previous related works, each reducible curve of the pencil is here counted with its appropriate…

The quantum plane is the non-commutative polynomial algebra in variables $x$ and $y$ with $xy=qyx$. In this paper, we study the module variety of $n$-dimensional modules over the quantum plane, and provide an explicit description of its…

Fix integers $r\geq 4$ and $i\geq 2$. Let $C$ be a non-degenerate, reduced and irreducible complex projective curve in $\mathbb P^r$, of degree $d$, not contained in a hypersurface of degree $\leq i$. Let $p_a(C)$ be the arithmetic genus of…

The paper gives topological as well as rigid isotopy classification of smooth irreducible algebraic curves in the real projective 3-space for the case when the degree of the curve is at most six and its genus is at most one.

Given a countable structure $\mathcal{A}$, the degree spectrum of $\mathcal{A}$ is the set of all Turing degrees which can compute an isomorphic copy of $\mathcal{A}$. One of the major programs in computable structure theory is to determine…
