Quadrilateral layouts on surfaces are valuable in texture mapping, and essential in generation of quadrilateral meshes and in fitting splines. Previous work has characterized such layouts as a special metric on a surface or as a meromorphic…

The Fourier coefficients F(t) of a function f on a compact symmetric space U/K are given by integration of f against matrix coefficients of irreducible representations of U. The coefficients depend on a spectral parameter t, which…

In this paper we give a general construction of transcendental lattices for K3 surfaces with real multiplication by arbitrary field up to degree 6 along with formula for their discriminants. We also show that all simple Abelian fourfolds…

We compute and study two determinantal representations of the discriminant of a cubic quaternary form. The first representation is the Chow form of the $2$-uple embedding of $\mathbb{P}^3$ and is computed as the Pfaffian of the Chow form of…

We introduce the notion of the full quiver of a representation of an algebra, which is a cover of the (classical) quiver, but which captures properties of the representation itself. Gluing of vertices and of arrows enables one to study…

Let $k$ be a finite field, and $L$ be a $q$-linearized polynomial defined over $k$ of $q$-degree $r$ ($L=\sum^r_{i=0}a_iZ^{q^i}$, with $a_i\in k$). This paper provides an algorithm to compute a characteristic polynomial of $L$ over a large…

A good canonical projection of a surface $S$ of general type is a morphism to the 3-dimensional projective space P^3 given by 4 sections of the canonical line bundle. To such a projection one associates the direct image sheaf F of the…

In this text we prove that if a smooth cubic in $\PR^5$ has its Fano variety of lines birational to the Hilbert scheme of two points on a K3 surface, then there exists a smooth projective curve or a smooth projective surface embedded in the…

We discuss criteria for the nonexistence, existence and computation of invariant algebraic surfaces for three-dimensional complex polynomial vector fields, thus transferring a classical problem of Poincar\'e from dimension two to dimension…

Consider a finite field $\mathbb F_q$, $q=p^d$, where $p$ is an odd number. Let $M=(E,r)$ be a regular matroid; denote by ${\mathcal B}$ the family of its bases, $\bar s(M;\alpha)=\sum_{B\in {\mathcal B}}\prod_{e\not\in B} \alpha_e$, where…

We show that for two afii varieties over an arbitrary field of characteristic zero, there is no general form of an algorithm for checking the presence of an embedding of one algebraic variety in another. Moreover, we establish this for…

Choose a polynomial in three variables with not more than three or four monomials of moderate degree. Take simple coefficients as 1 and -1. Then draw a picture of the solution variety in real three space using a ray-tracing program like…
