Let $K$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$, $\bar{K}$ its algebraic closure. Let $n \ge 3$ be an odd integer. Let $f(x)$ and $h(x)$ be degree $n$ polynomials with coefficients in $K$ and without repeated roots. Let us consider…
Abstractly, tropical hyperelliptic curves are metric graphs that admit a two-to-one harmonic morphism to a tree. They also appear as embedded tropical curves in the plane arising from triangulations of polygons with all interior lattice…
The Hessian Topology is a subject having interesting relations with several areas, for instance, differential geometry, implicit differential equations, analysis and singularity theory. In this article we study the problem of realization of…
We study degree 2 and 4 elliptic subcovers of hyperelliptic curves of genus 3 defined over $\mathbb C$. The family of genus 3 hyperelliptic curves which have a degree 2 cover to an elliptic curve $E$ and degree 4 covers to elliptic curves…
We study Mordell-Weil rank jumps on families of jacobians of a pencil of genus-2 curves on a K3 surface defined over a number field k. We exhibit a finite extension l/k over which the subset of fibers for which the rank jumps is infinite.…
Let $X$ be a very general degree $d\geq 5$ hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^3$. We compute the ample cone of the Hilbert scheme $X^{[n]}$ of $n$ points on $X$ for various small values of $n$ (the answer is already known for large $n$). We obtain…
The consideration of the so-called rotation minimizing frames allows for a simple and elegant characterization of plane and spherical curves in Euclidean space via a linear equation relating the coefficients that dictate the frame motion.…
We analyze morphisms from pointed curves to K3 surfaces with a distinguished rational curve, such that the marked points are taken to the rational curve, perhaps with specified cross ratios. This builds on work of Mukai and others…
If $X$ is a smooth projective variety over ${\mathbb R}$, the Hodge ${\mathcal D}$-conjecture of Beilinson asserts the surjectivity of the regulator map to Deligne cohomology with real coefficients. It is known to be false in general but is…
Let $M\subset\mathbb{R}^3$ be a properly embedded, connected, complete surface with boundary a convex planar curve $C$, satisfying an elliptic equation $H=f(H^2-K)$, where $H$ and $K$ are the mean and the Gauss curvature respectively -…
In this paper, we study $\mathbb{A}^1$ curves on log K3 surfaces. We classify all genuine log K3 surfaces of type II which admits countably infinite $\mathbb{A}^1$ curves.
We study the variation of linear sections of hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^n$. We completely classify all plane curves, necessarily singular, whose line sections do not vary maximally in moduli. In higher dimensions, we prove that the family…
Given a set $S$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, a $k$-set is a subset of $k$ points of $S$ that can be strictly separated by a hyperplane from the remaining $n-k$ points. Similarly, one may consider $k$-facets, which are hyperplanes that…
Canonical principal parameters are introduced for surfaces in $\mathbb R^3$ without umbilical points. It is proved that in these parameters the surface is determined (up to position in space) by a pair of invariants satisfying a partial…
We construct and study curves with low H-constants on abelian and K3 surfaces. Using the Kummer $(16_{6})$-configurations on Jacobian surfaces and some $(16_{10})$-configurations of curves on $(1,3)$-polarized Abelian surfaces, we obtain…
A topological hyperplane is a subspace of R^n (or a homeomorph of it) that is topologically equivalent to an ordinary straight hyperplane. An arrangement of topological hyperplanes in R^n is a finite set H such that k topological…
We construct a new autoequivalence of the derived category of the Hilbert scheme of n points on a K3 surface, and of the variety of lines on a smooth cubic 4-fold. For Hilb^2 and the variety of lines, we use the theory of spherical…
We study the Brauer groups of affine surfaces that are complements of singular hyperplane sections of smooth cubic surfaces over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$. We determine the Brauer group over the algebraic closure as a Galois module…
The Hessian of a general cubic surface is a nodal quartic surface, hence its desingularisation is a K3 surface. We determine the transcendental lattice of the Hessian K3 surface for various cubic surfaces (with nodes and/or Eckardt points…
Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a projective algebraic curve and denote by $\mathcal{X}^{'}$ its strict dual curve. The map $\gamma:\mathcal{X} \longrightarrow \mathcal{X}^{'}$ is called (strict) Gauss map of $\mathcal{X}$. In this manuscript, we…
