This paper is devoted to a generalisation of the quantum adiabatic theorem to a nonlinear setting. We consider a Hamiltonian operator which depends on the time variable and on a finite number of parameters and acts on a separable Hilbert…
In this paper we construct $G$-Hilbert schemes for finite group schemes $G$. We find a construction of $G$-Hilbert schemes as relative $G$-Hilbert schemes over the quotient that does not need the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points, works under…
We characterize operators $T=PQ$ ($P,Q$ orthogonal projections in a Hilbert space $H$) which have a singular value decomposition. A spatial characterizations is given: this condition occurs if and only if there exist orthonormal bases…
Closed subschemes in projective space with a fixed Hilbert polynomial are parametrized by a Hilbert scheme. We classify the smooth ones. We identify numerical conditions on a polynomial that completely determine when the Hilbert scheme is…
Let $X$ be a smooth quintic hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^3$, let $C$ be a smooth hyperplane section of $X$, and let $H=\mathcal{O}_X(C)$. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the line bundle given by a non-zero…
Let $X$ be a set of $K$-rational points in $P^1 \times P^1$ over a field $K$ of characteristic zero, let $Y$ be a fat point scheme supported at $ X$, and let $R_Y$ be the bihomogeneus coordinate ring of $Y$. In this paper we investigate the…
We prove that the Hilbert scheme of points on a normal quasi-projective surface with at worst rational double point singularities is irreducible.
We develop a notion of rank one properly convex domains (or Hilbert geometries) in the real projective space. This is in the spirit of rank one non-positively curved Riemannian manifolds and CAT(0) spaces. We define rank one isometries for…
We give a linear algebraic and a monadic descriptions of the Hilbert scheme of points on the affine space of dimension $n$ which naturally extends Nakajima's representation of the Hilbert scheme of points on the plane. As an application of…
In this paper, we give new explicit representations of the Hilbert scheme of $\mu$ points in $\PP^{r}$ as a projective subvariety of a Grassmanniann variety. This new explicit description of the Hilbert scheme is simpler than the previous…
The Hilbert-Samuel function and the multiplicity function are fundamental locally defined invariants on Noetherian schemes. They have been playing an important role in desingularization for many years. Bennett studied upper semicontinuity…
We take a new look at the curvilinear Hilbert scheme of points on a smooth projective variety $X$ as a projective completion of the non-reductive quotient of holomorphic map germs from the complex line into $X$ by polynomial…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 3$. Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth projective surface over $k$. Fix an integer $n \geq 1$ and let ${\mathcal{H}{\it ilb}}_X^n$ be the Hilbert scheme parameterizing effective…
A recent paper by the first and third authors together with Sabourin raised the question of what the possible Hilbert functions are for fat point subschemes of the form $2p_1+...+2p_r$, for all possible choices of $r$ distinct points in the…
We prove that the Hilbert scheme of 11 points on a smooth threefold is irreducible. In the course of the proof, we present several known and new techniques for producing curves on the Hilbert scheme.
Let X be a smooth, connected, dimension n, quasi-projective variety imbedded in \PP_N. Consider integers {k_1,...,k_r}, with k_i>0, and the Hilbert Scheme H_{k_1,...,k_r}(X) of aligned, finite, degree \sum k_i, subschemes of X, with…
The thesis concerns Hilbert schemes of points and apart from mathematical results, contains small open problems and history sections, see the introduction for more details. The thesis has not been edited since 2017, see first page for more…
In the Hilbert scheme of points on a scheme X there is an open subset parameterizing distinct points. The closure of that open set is by definition the good component. When X is flat over the base, we show that a certain blow-up of the…
Given a subspace $U\subset\mathbb{C}[x_1,\dots,x_n]_d$ we consider the closure of the image of the rational map $\mathbb{P}^{n-1}\dashrightarrow\mathbb{P}^{\dim U-1}$ given by $U$. Its coordinate ring is isomorphic to $\bigoplus_{i\ge 0}…
We study the Hilbert function of a general union $X\subset \mathbb{P}^3$ of $x$ double lines and $y$ lines. In many cases (e.g. always for $x=2$ and $y\ge 3$ or for $x=3$ and $y\ge 2$ or for $x\ge 4$ and $y\ge \lceil(\binom{3x+4}{3}…
