This paper is devoted to the classification of irregular surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=2$ and non birational bicanonical map. The main result is that, if $S$ is such a surface and if $S$ is minimal with no pencil of curves of genus…
Let $Y$ be an algebraic manifold of dimension 3 with $H^i(Y, \Omega^j_Y)=0$ for all $j\geq 0$, $i>0$ and $h^0(Y, {\mathcal{O}}_Y) > 1$. Let $X$ be a smooth completion of $Y$ such that the boundary $X-Y$ is the support of an effective…
We find the first examples of real hypersurfaces with two nonconstant principal curvatures in complex projective and hyperbolic planes, and we classify them. It turns out that each such hypersurface is foliated by equidistant Lagrangian…
Let $E$ be a two-dimensional real normed space. In this paper we show that if the unit circle of $E$ does not contain any line segment such that the distance between its endpoints is greater than 1, then every transformation $\phi\colon…
Conformal fundamental forms populate a minimal generating set for low differential order invariants of conformal hypersurface embeddings. In this work we complete the characterization of conformal fundamental forms by proving the general…
Every $\mathbb{A}^{1}-$bundle over the complex affine plane punctured at the origin, is trivial in the differentiable category but there are infinitely many distinct isomorphy classes of algebraic bundles. Isomorphy types of total spaces of…
Cais, Ellenberg and Zureick-Brown recently observed that over finite fields of characteristic two, all sufficiently general smooth plane projective curves of a given odd degree admit a non-trivial rational 2-torsion point on their Jacobian.…
We continue the work of [1, 2, 3] by analyzing the equivalence relation of bi-embeddability on various classes of countable planes, most notably the class of countable non-Desarguesian projective planes. We use constructions of the second…
There is a remarkable type of field of two-planes special to four dimensions known as an Engel distributions. They are the only stable regular distributions besides the contact, quasi-contact and line fields. If an arbitrary two-plane field…
In this paper we consider the topological class, denoted by AV2, of universal covering maps from the plane to the sphere with two removed points. We prove that an element f in AV2 with finite post-singular set is combinatorially equivalent…
Let $n=2g+2$ be a positive even integer, $f(x)$ a degree $n$ complex polynomial without multiple roots and $C_f: y^2=f(x)$ the corresponding genus $g$ hyperelliptic curve over the field $\C$ of complex numbers. Let a $(g-1)$-dimensional…
We apply the Cartan equivalence method to the study of real analytic second order ODEs under the local real analytic diffeomorphism of $\C^2$ which are area-preserving. This enables us to give a characterization of the second order ODEs…
We show that for any elliptic curve (with j invariant not 0 or 1728) over any field of characteristic different from 2 and 3, there exists an hyperelliptic curve H of genus 5 with two independent maps to the given elliptic curve. We also…
We prove that for any pair of integers 0\leq r\leq g such that g\geq 3 or r>0, there exists a (hyper)elliptic curve C over F_2 of genus g and 2-rank r whose automorphism group consists of only identity and the (hyper)elliptic involution. As…
In this paper, we consider point sets of finite Desarguesian planes whose multisets of intersection numbers with lines is the same for all but one exceptional parallel class of lines. We call such sets regular of affine type. When the lines…
In this article, we prove that there does not exist a family of entire curves in the universal family of hypersurfaces of degree $d\geq 2n$ in the complex projective space ${\mathbb P}^n$. This can be seen as a weak version of the Kobayashi…
Of four types of Kaplansky algebras, type-2 and type-4 algebras have previously unobserved $\mathbb{Z}/2$-gradings: nonlinear in roots. A method assigning a simple Lie superalgebra to every $\mathbb{Z}/2$-graded simple Lie algebra in…
We show that for all odd primes $p$, there exist ordinary elliptic curves over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p(x)$ with arbitrarily high rank and constant $j$-invariant. This shows in particular that there are elliptic curves with arbitrarily high rank…
We study minimal {\em double planes} of general type with $K^2=8$ and $p_g=0$, namely pairs $(S,\sigma)$, where $S$ is a minimal complex algebraic surface of general type with $K^2=8$ and $p_g=0$ and $\sigma$ is an automorphism of $S$ of…
We show that there exist noncommutative Ore extensions in which every right ideal is two-sided. This answers a problem posed by Marks in Duo Rings and Ore extensions, J.Algebra 280(2), (2004). We also provide an easy construction of one…
