The purpose of this note is to suggest an analogue for genus 2 curves of part of Gross and Zagier's work on elliptic curves. Experimentally, for genus 2 curves with CM by a quartic CM field K, it appears that primes dividing the…
I consider the problem of existence of intrinsic determinantal equations for plane projective curves and hypersurfaces in projective space and prove that in many cases of interest there exist intrinsic determinantal equations. In particular…
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 study the shifted convolution sum of the divisor function and some other arithmetic functions.
A general scheme for determining and studying integrable deformations of algebraic curves, based on the use of Lenard relations, is presented. We emphasize the use of several types of dynamical variables : branches, power sums and…
We investigate the arithmetic of algebraic curves on coarse moduli spaces for special linear rank two local systems on surfaces with fixed boundary traces. We prove a structure theorem for morphisms from the affine line into the moduli…
A set of nodes is called $n$-independent if each its node has a fundamental polynomial of degree $n.$ We proved in a previous paper [H. Hakopian and S. Toroyan, On the minimal number of nodes determining uniquelly algebraic curves, accepted…
A theta curve is a spatial embedding of the $\theta$-graph in the three-sphere, taken up to ambient isotopy. We define the determinant of a theta curve as an integer-valued invariant arising from the first homology of its Klein cover. When…
For a Riemann surface $X$ and the moduli of regularly stable $G$-bundles $M$, there is a naturally occuring "$adjoint$" vector bundle over $X \times M$. One can take the determinant of this vector bundle with respect to the projection map…
We study the geometry and partial differential equations arising from the consideration of Frobenius determinants, also called-group-determinants. This leads us to address some aspects of twistor theory as well as some extensions of Bessel…
In this paper, we will investigate the jet schemes of determinantal varieties. It is quite often the case that the geometric information concerning the jet schemes of an algebraic variety can be described, but the more refined algebraic…
We introduce the concept of $N$-differential graded algebras (N-dga), and study the moduli space of deformations of the differential of a N-dga. We prove that it is controlled by what we call the N-Maurer-Cartan equation.
Given a chiral algebra, we study modules over an arbitrary power of a curve. We describe this category in three different ways: in terms of factorization, in terms of certain chiral operations and as modules for a lie algebra in a certain…
We introduce enumerative invariants of real del Pezzo surfaces that count real rational curves belonging to a given divisor class, passing through a generic conjugation-invariant configuration of points and satisfying preassigned tangency…
The affine space of all tensor product B\'ezier patches of degree nxn with prescribed main diagonal curves is determined. First, the pair of B\'ezier curves which can be diagonals of a B\'ezier patch is characterized. Besides prescribing…
We prove that the basis and the generating function of a geometric grid class of permutations Geom$(M)$ are computable from the matrix $M$, as well as some variations on this result. Our main tool is monadic second-order logic on…
We introduce the Frenet theory of curves in dual space $\d^3$. After defining the curvature and the torsion of a curve, we classify all curves in dual plane with constant curvature. We also establish the fundamental theorem of existence in…
We prove two formulae which express the Alexander polynomial $\Delta^C$ of several variables of a plane curve singularity $C$ in terms of the ring ${\cal O}_{C}$ of germs of analytic functions on the curve. One of them expresses $\Delta^C$…
We study the relative Hilbert scheme of a family of nodal (or smooth) curves via its (birational) cycle map, going to the relative symmetric product. We show the cycle map is the blowing up of the discriminant locus, which consists of…
In this paper we study the geometry of the Severi varieties parametrizing curves on the rational ruled surface $\fn$. We compute the number of such curves through the appropriate number of fixed general points on $\fn$, and the number of…
