We study Van der Geer--Van der Vlugt curves in a ramification-theoretic view point. We give explicit formulae on L-polynomials of these curves. As a result, we show that these curves are supersingular and give sufficient conditions for…

We classify globally generated vector bundles on $\mathbf{P}^1 \times \mathbf{P}^1 \times \mathbf{P}^1$ with small first Chern class, i.e. $c_1= (a_1, a_2, a_3)$, $a_i \le 2$. Our main method is to investigate the associated smooth curves…

A general method of obtaining linear differential equations having polynomial solutions is proposed. The method is based on an equivalence of the spectral problem for an element of the universal enveloping algebra of some Lie algebra in the…

The purpose of this note is to prove that there is an algebraic stack U parameterizing all curves. The curves that appear in the algebraic stack U are allowed to be arbitrarily singular, non-reduced, disconnected, and reducible. We also…

In order to count the number of smooth cubic hypersurfaces tangent to a prescribed number of lines and passing through a given number of points, we construct a compactification of their moduli space. We term the latter a…

Given an integer $\gamma\geq 2$ and an odd prime power $q$ we show that for every large genus $g$ there exists a non-singular curve $C$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ of genus $g$ and gonality $\gamma$ and with exactly $\gamma(q+1)$…

Let $f \colon X \to B$ be a complex elliptic surface and let $\DD \subset X$ be an integral divisor dominating $B$. It is well-known that the Parshin-Arakelov theorem implies the Mordell conjecture over complex function fields by a…

We study the existence of linear series on curves lying on an Enriques surface and general in their complete linear system. Using a method that works also below the Bogomolov-Reider range, we compute, in all cases, the gonality of such…

In this paper, we study generalized line bundles over $C_n$, a primitive multiple curve of arbitrary multiplicity $n$, where $n$ is a positive integer. In particular, we give a structure theorem for them and we characterize their…

We use constructions of surfaces as abelian covers to write down exceptional collections of line bundles of maximal length for every surface $X$ in certain families of surfaces of general type with $p_g=0$ and $K_X^2=3,4,5,6,8$. We also…

In this article, the existence of Ulrich bundles on projective bundles $\mathbb P(E) \to X$ is discussed. In the case, that the base variety $X$ is a curve or surface, a close relationship between Ulrich bundles on $X$ and those on $\mathbb…

We describe an algorithm which, given two essential curves on a surface $S$, computes their distance in the curve graph of $S$, up to multiplicative and additive errors. As an application, we present an algorithm to decide the…

We prove that every projective embedding of a connected scheme determined by the complete linear series of a sufficiently ample line bundle is defined by the 2-minors of a 1-generic matrix of linear forms. Extending the work of…

We generalize Block-G\"ottsche polynomials, originally defined for toric del Pezzo surfaces, to arbitrary surfaces. To do this, we show that these polynomials arise as special cases of BPS polynomials, defined for any surface $S$ as Laurent…

Let $S$ be a complete flat surface, such as the Euclidean plane. We obtain direct characterizations of the connected components of the space of all curves on $S$ which start and end at given points in given directions, and whose curvatures…

We study curve singularities in a smooth surface relative to a smooth boundary curve. We consider the semiuniversal deformations and equisingular deformations of curves with a fixed local intersection number $w$ with the boundary, and prove…

We prove a result of Chern-Weil type for canonically metrized line bundles on one-parameter families of smooth complex curves. Our result generalizes a result due to J.I. Burgos Gil, J. Kramer and U. K\"uhn that deals with a line bundle of…

In this paper, we show how to apply a theorem by L\^e D.T. and the author about linear families of curves on normal surface singularities to get new results in this area. The main concept used is a specific definition of {\em general…

We give a formula relating the total Tjurina number and the generic splitting type of the bundle of logarithmic vector fields associated to a reduced plane curve. By using it, we give a characterization of nearly free curves in terms of…

We give an explicit formula for Euler characteristics of line bundles on the Hilbert scheme of points on $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1$. Combined with structural results of Ellingsrud, G\"ottsche, and Lehn, this determines the Euler…
