Real, complex, and tropical algebraic geometry join forces in a new branch of mathematical physics called positive geometry. We develop the positive geometry of del Pezzo surfaces and their moduli spaces, viewed as very affine varieties.…
We study the space of rational curves on del Pezzo surfaces in positive characteristic. For most primes p we prove the irreducibility of the moduli space of rational curves of a given nef class, extending results of Testa in characteristic…
The investigation of primes in certain arithmetic sequences is one of the fundamental problems in number theory and especially, finding blocks of distinct primes has gained a lot of attention in recent years. In this context, we prove the…
We show how to construct infinite families of explicitly determined cubic number fields whose class group has a subgroup isomorphic to $(\mathbb{Z}/2)^8$ using degree $1$ del Pezzo surfaces. We illustrate the method and provide an example…
We study the rate of convergence for (variational) eigenvalues of several non-linear problems involving oscillating weights and subject to different kinds of boundary conditions in bounded domains.
We introduce and study a new notion of stability for varieties fibered over curves, motivated by Koll\'ar's stability for homogeneous polynomials with integral coefficients. We develop tools to study geometric properties of stable…
We characterize the canonical algebras such that for all dimension vectors of homogeneous modules the corresponding module varieties are complete intersections (respectively, normal). We also investigate the sets of common zeros of…
We find normal forms for del Pezzo surfaces of degree $2$ over algebraically closed fields of characteristic $2$. For each normal form, we describe the structure of the group of automorphisms of the surface. In particular, we classify all…
In this paper we give an asymptotic formula for the quantity of diagonal del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2 which have a Brauer-Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle when ordered by height.
We investigate existence and uniqueness of solutions to the filtration equation with an inhomogeneous density in ${\mathbb R}^N$, approaching at infinity a given continuous datum of Dirichlet type.
We study the algebraic Brauer classes on open del Pezzo surfaces of degree $4$. I.e., on the complements of geometrically irreducible hyperplane sections of del Pezzo surfaces of degree $4$. We show that the $2$-torsion part is generated by…
Consider a rational elliptic surface over a field $k$ with characteristic $0$ given by $\mathcal{E}: y^2 = x^3 + f(t)x + g(t)$, with $f,g\in k[t]$, $\text{deg}(f) \leq 4$ and $\text{deg}(g) \leq 6$. If all the bad fibres are irreducible,…
In this study, a new form of quadratic spline is obtained, where the coefficients are determined explicitly by variational methods. Convergence is studied and parity conservation is demonstrated. Finally, the method is applied to solve…
We complete the classification of automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces over algebraically closed fields of odd positive characteristic.
Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote a finite set of arithmetic progressions of positive integers and let $s \geq 2$ be an integer. If the cardinality of $\mathcal{A}$ is at least 2 and $U$ is the union formed by taking certain arithmetic progressions…
We prove an analogue of the Oppenheim conjecture for a system comprising an inhomogeneous quadratic form and a linear form in $3$ variables using dynamics on the space of affine lattices.
The surfaces considered are real, rational and have a unique smooth real $(-2)$-curve. Their canonical class $K$ is strictly negative on any other irreducible curve in the surface and $K^2>0$. For surfaces satisfying these assumptions, we…
We construct a kernel density estimator on symmetric spaces of non-compact type and establish an upper bound for its convergence rate, analogous to the minimax rate for classical kernel density estimators on Euclidean space. Symmetric…
We show that, for every integer $1 \leq d \leq 4$ and every finite set $S$ of places, there exists a degree $d$ del Pezzo surface $X$ over ${\mathbb Q}$ such that ${\rm Br}(X)/{\rm Br}({\mathbb Q}) \cong {\mathbb Z}/2{\mathbb Z}$ and the…
We investigate distribution of integral well-rounded lattices in the plane, parameterizing the set of their similarity classes by solutions of the family of Pell-type Diophantine equations of the form $x^2+Dy^2=z^2$ where $D>0$ is…
