We give some properties of the dynamical number of base-points of birational self-maps of the complex projective plane. In particular we give a formula to determine the dynamical number of base-points of non base-wandering Jonqui\`eres…
We define a differential Tannakian category and show that under a natural assumption it has a fibre functor. If in addition this category is neutral, that is, the target category for the fibre functor are finite dimensional vector spaces…
We use the techniques of birational algebraic geometry and some combinatorial arguments related to weighted trees to study the structure of resolutions of compactifications of hypothetical counterexamples to the two-dimensional Jacobian…
Given a fibration of simply connected CW complexes of finite type, we study the evaluation subgroup of the fibre inclusion as an invariant of fibre-homotopy type. For spherical fibrations, we show the evaluation subgroup may be expressed as…
We define a birational map between labelings of a rectangular poset and its associated trapezoidal poset. This map tropicalizes to a bijection between the plane partitions of these posets of fixed height, giving a new bijective proof of a…
We compute the degree complexity of a family of birational mappings of the plane with high order singularities.
This paper provides a set of sensitivity analysis and activity identification results for a class of convex functions with a strong geometric structure, that we coined "mirror-stratifiable". These functions are such that there is a…
The well-known theory of "rational canonical form of an operator" describes the invariant factors, or elementary divisors, as a complete set of invariants of a similarity class of an operator on a finite-dimensional vector space $\V$ over a…
We determine the structure of linear maps on complex (real) square matrices sending unitary (orthogonal) matrices to multiples of unitary (orthogonal) matrices. The result is used to determine the linear preservers of matrix pairs…
This work dynamically classifies a 9-parametric family of birational maps f : C2 -> C2. From the sequence of the degrees dn of the iterates of f, we find the dynamical degree delta(f) of f. We identify when dn grows periodically, linearly,…
Let $G$ be a group containing a nilpotent normal subgroup $N$ with central series $\{N_j\}$, such that each $N_j/N_{j+1}$ is a $\mathbb{F}$-vector space over a field $\mathbb{F}$ and the action of $G$ on $N_j/N_{j+1}$ induced by the…
Foliations in the complex projective plane are uniquely determined by their singular locus, which is in correspondence with a zero-dimensional ideal. However, this correspondence is not surjective. We give conditions to determine whether an…
Consider a rational map from a projective space to a product of projective spaces, induced by a collection of linear projections. Motivated by the the theory of limit linear series and Abel-Jacobi maps, we study the basic properties of the…
Polynomial algebra offers a standard approach to handle several problems in geometric modeling. A key tool is the discriminant of a univariate polynomial, or of a well-constrained system of polynomial equations, which expresses the…
In the past many papers have appeared which simulated surface growth with different growth models. The results showed that, if models differed only slightly in their `growth' rules, the resulting surfaces may belong to different…
The developable surface is an important surface in computer aided design, geometric modeling and industrial manufactory. It is often given in the stan- dard parametric form, but it can also be in the implicit form which is commonly used in…
The semistable minimal model program is a special case of the minimal model program concerning 3-folds fibred over a curve and birational morphisms preserving this structure. We classify semistable divisorial contractions which contract the…
We study weak approximation on rationally connected varieties under an assumption of strong approximation for a "simple" variety or under Schinzel's hypothesis. We also get some unconditional results.
Bertini classified the birational involutions of the complex projective plane, but his geometric approach does not allow to explicit these maps easily. In this article, we present an effective approach to this problem by associating to each…
This article presents a unified bijective scheme between planar maps and blossoming trees, where a blossoming tree is defined as a spanning tree of the map decorated with some dangling half-edges that enable to reconstruct its faces. Our…
