Most research into similarity search in metric spaces relies upon the triangle inequality property. This property allows the space to be arranged according to relative distances to avoid searching some subspaces. We show that many common…

In this paper we give a complete description of the irreducible components of the jet schemes (with origin in the singular locus) of a two-dimensional quasi-ordinary hypersurface singularity. We associate with these components and with…

Let f: C --> P^3 be a general curve of genus g, mapped to P^3 via a general linear series of degree d; and let Q be a general (and thus smooth) quadric. In this paper, we show that the points of intersection f(C) \cap Q give a general…

For $\gamma \geq 7$ and $g \geq 6\gamma + 5$, we construct a family $\mathcal{F}^{\prime}$ of curves lying on cones in $\mathbb{P}^{g-3\gamma+1}$ over smooth non-degenerate curves of genus $\gamma$ and degree $g-2\gamma$ in…

We consider the multigraded Hilbert scheme corresponding to the Hilbert function of a finite number of points in general position in a smooth projective complex toric variety. We develop several criteria for a point of that parameter space…

We investigate the structure of fixed point sets of self-embeddings of models of arithmetic. In particular, given a countable nonstandard model M of a modest fragment of Peano arithimetic, we provide complete characterizations of (a) the…

Let $H$ be the Hilbert scheme of curves in complex projective $3$-space, with $d\geq 3$ and genus $g \leq (d-2)^2/4$. A complete, explicit description of the cone of curves and the ample cone of $H$ is given. From this, partial results on…

Let $C$ be an affine curve over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Given an embedding problem $(\beta:\Gamma\longrightarrow G, \alpha: \pi^{et}_1(C)\longrightarrow G)$ for $\pi_1^{et}(C)$ where $\beta$ is a…

A point P on a smooth hypersurface X of degree d in an N-dimensional projective space is called a star point if and only if the intersection of X with the embedded tangent space T_P(X) is a cone with vertex P. This notion is a…

It is shown that any smooth closed orientable manifold of dimension $2k + 1$, $k \geq 2$, admits a smooth polynomially convex embedding into $\mathbb C^{3k}$. This improves by $1$ the previously known lower bound of $3k+1$ on the possible…

We study $d$-dimensional simplicial complexes that are PL embeddable in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$. It is shown that such a complex must satisfy a certain homological condition. The existence of this obstruction allows us to provide a systematic…

We show that large subsets of vector spaces over finite fields determine certain point configurations with prescribed distance structure. More specifically, we consider the complete graph with vertices as the points of $A \subseteq…

We study the fixed singularities imposed on members of a linear system of surfaces in P^3_C by its base locus Z. For a 1-dimensional subscheme Z \subset P^3 with finitely many points p_i of embedding dimension three and d >> 0, we determine…

Let $X$ be a topological space, $U$ -- opened subset of $X$. We will say that point $x \in \partial U$ is {\it accessible} from $U$ if there exists continuous injective mapping $\phi : I \to \Cl D$ such that $\phi(1)=x$, $\phi([0,1))…

We study the space of complete Riemannian metrics of nonnegative curvature on the plane equipped with the C^k topology. If k is infinite, we show that the space is homeomorphic to the separable Hilbert space. For any k we prove that the…

In spaces of nonpositive curvature the existence of isometrically embedded flat (hyper)planes is often granted by apparently weaker conditions on large scales. We show that some such results remain valid for metric spaces with non-unique…

In this paper, first some results of [5] are extended for subadditive separating maps between C(X;E) and C(Y;E), such that E is a unital Banach algebra. Then we give some conditions under which a strongly subadditive map has a unique fixed…

This note is purely expository. In the course of the Kolmogorov-Arnold solution of Hilbert's 13th problem on superpositions there appeared the notion of basic embedding. A subset K of R^2 is basic if for each continuous function f:K->R…

We introduce the notion of coupled embeddability, defined for maps on products of topological spaces. We use known results for nonsingular biskew and bilinear maps to generate simple examples and nonexamples of coupled embeddings. We study…

Let $\mathcal G$ be a hypergraph whose edges are colored. An {\it $(\alpha,n)$-detachment} of $\mathcal G$ is a hypergraph obtained by splitting a vertex $\alpha$ into $n$ vertices, say $\alpha_1,\dots,\alpha_n$, and sharing the incident…
