The existence of Hopf fibrations S^{2N+1}/S^1 = CP^N and S^{4K+3}/S^3 = HP^K allows us to treat the Hilbert space of generic finite-dimensional quantum systems as the total bundle space with respectively $U(1)$ and $SU(2)$ fibers and…

We characterize the minimal free resolution of zero-dimensional subschemes in the plane with non connected character. This is then used to slightly generalize a result of Sauer about the smoothability of a.C.M. space curves. Some…

We characterize Hilbert polynomials that give rise to Hilbert schemes with two Borel-fixed points and determine when the associated Hilbert schemes or their irreducible components are smooth. In particular, we show that the Hilbert scheme…

In math.AG/0407496, a new construction of limit linear series is presented which functorializes and compactifies the original construction of Eisenbud and Harris, using a new space called the linked Grassmannian. The boundary of the…

We prove some results on the fibers and images of rational maps from a hyper-K\"ahler manifold. We study in particular the minimal genus of fibers of a fibration into curves. The last section of this paper is devoted to the study of the…

Our aim in this work is to study exact Osserman limit linear series on curves of compact type $X$ with three irreducible components. This case is quite different from the case of two irreducible components studied by Osserman. For instance,…

We solve a case of the Abelian Exponential-Algebraic Closedness Conjecture, a conjecture due to Bays and Kirby, building on work of Zilber, which predicts sufficient conditions for systems of equations involving algebraic operations and the…

A class of maps in a complex Banach space is studied, which includes both unbounded linear operators and nonlinear holomorphic maps. The defining property, which we call {\sl pseudo-contractivity}, is introduced by means of the Abel…

Criteria are given in terms of certain Hilbert coefficients for the fiber cone F(I) of an m-primary ideal I in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring (R,m) so that it is Cohen-Macaulay or has depth at least dim(R)-1. A version of Huneke's fundamental…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field and let $A$ be a finitely generated $k-$algebra. We show that the scheme of n-dimensional representations of $A$ is smooth when $A$ is hereditary and coherent. We deduce from this the smoothness of…

We prove the following result: Let B be a smooth, irreducible, quasi-projective variety over the complex numbers and assume that B has a projective compactification \bar{B} such that \bar{B} - B is of codimension at least two in \bar{B}.…

Let X and Y be smooth varieties of dimensions n-1 and n over an arbitrary algebraically closed field, f:X-> Y a finite map that is birational onto its image. Suppose that f is curvilinear; that is, at every point of X, the Jacobian has rank…

This article introduces and studies the tight approximation property, a property of algebraic varieties defined over the function field of a complex or real curve that refines the weak approximation property (and the known cohomological…

Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve embedded in its Jacobian $J$ via an Abel-Jacobi map. We compute the scheme structure of the Hilbert scheme component of $\textrm{Hilb}_J$ containing the Abel-Jacobi curve as a point. We relate the result to…

The quotient singularities of dimensions two and three obtained from polyhedral groups and the corresponding binary polyhedral groups admit natural resolutions of singularities as Hilbert schemes of regular orbits whose exceptional fibres…

Similarly to the linear Harbourne constant recently defined, we study the elliptic $H$-constants of $\mathbb{P}^{2}$ and Abelian surfaces. We exhibit configurations of smooth plane cubic curves whose Harbourne index is arbitrarily close to…

We introduce a notion of limit linear series for nodal curves which are not of compact type. We give a construction of a moduli space of limit linear series, which works also in smoothing families, and we prove a corresponding…

We establish rigidity results for holomorphic mappings and plurisubharmonic functions in complex geometry. First, under mild conditions, we show that the gradient of a $\operatorname{U}(1)$-invariant strictly plurisubharmonic function in…

In this paper we study flat deformations of real subschemes of $\mathbb{P}^n$, hyperbolic with respect to a fixed linear subspace, i.e. admitting a finite surjective and real fibered linear projection. We show that the subset of the…

One can consider the Hilbert scheme as a natural compactification of the space of smooth projective curves with fixed Hilbert polynomial. Here we consider a different modular compactification, namely the functor CM parameterizing curves…
