We examine the relationships between the differential invariants of objects and of their images under a surjective map. We analyze both the case when the underlying transformation group is projectable and hence induces an action on the…
This paper begins the exploration of what we call measures of association between two irreducible complex projective varieties of the same dimension. The idea is to study from various points of view the minimal complexity of correspondences…
In this paper we build bridges between moduli theory of sheaf stable pairs on one hand and birational geometry on the other hand. We will in particular treat moduli of sheaf stable pairs on smooth projective curves in detail and present…
We study the algebraic dynamics of endomorphisms of projective varieties. First, we characterize their iterated images, i.e. the intersection of the images of their iterates. Next, we explore the Stein factorizations of the iterates,…
Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) produces quotients of algebraic varieties by reductive groups. If the variety is projective, this quotient depends on a choice of polarisation; by work of Dolgachev-Hu and Thaddeus, it is known that two…
We present the abelianisation of the birational transformations of the real projective plane.
This thesis is concerned with the theory of invariant bilinear differential pairings on parabolic geometries. It introduces the concept formally with the help of the jet bundle formalism and provides a detailed analysis. More precisely,…
In this paper we collect the main properties of free curves in the complex projective plane and a lot of conjectures and open problems, both old and new. In the quest to understand the mystery of free curves, many tools were developed and…
Let A^2 denote the affine plane over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. Besides contributing several new results in the general theory of birational endomorphisms of A^2, this article describes certain classes of…
The embeddings of complex plane projective curves in the plane are a cornerstone of the topological study of algebraic varieties. In this work, we deal with the local and global aspects of these embeddings, with a special attention to its…
The purpose of this article is to motivate the study of invariant, and especially conformally invariant, differential pairings. Since a general theory is lacking, this work merely presents some interesting examples of these pairings,…
We combine the newly discovered technique, which computes explicit formulas for the image of an algebraic curve under rational transformation, with techniques that enable to compute braid monodromies of such curves. We use this combination…
We describe birational representations of discrete groups generated by involutions, having their origin in the theory of exactly solvable vertex-models in lattice statistical mechanics. These involutions correspond respectively to two kinds…
Mutations of the cluster variables generating the cluster algebra of type $A^{(2)}_2$ reduce to a two-dimensional discrete integrable system given by a quartic birational map. The invariant curve of the map is a singular quartic curve, and…
Using three different approaches, we analyze the complexity of various birational maps constructed from simple operations (inversions) on square matrices of arbitrary size. The first approach consists in the study of the images of lines,…
A classical result asserts that the complex projective plane modulo complex conjugation is the 4-dimensional sphere. We generalize this result in two directions by considering the projective planes over the normed real division algebras and…
We study the birational self-maps of the projective plane over finite fields that induce permutations on the set of rational points. As a main result, we prove that no odd permutation arises over a non-prime finite field of characteristic…
We introduce the notion of the moduli stack of relations of a quiver. When the quiver with relations is derived-equivalent to an algebraic variety, the corresponding compact moduli scheme can be viewed as a compact moduli of noncommutative…
In the present paper, we construct an invariant of braids in the real projective plane which corresponds to an ``action'' of braids on certain graphs in $\R{}P^{2}$ with labels. This paper is a sequel of papers \cite{M},\cite{KM}. It…
The traditional study of plane and space algebraic curves by looking at their tangent vectors, curvatures and torsions provides geometric, but unfortunately not sufficient information about individual curves in order to be able to…
