The correspondence between 2-parameter families of oriented lines in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$ and surfaces in $T{\Bbb{P}}^1$ is studied, and the geometric properties of the lines are related to the complex geometry of the surface. Congruences…
We argue that for a smooth surface S, considered as a ramified cover over the projective plane branched over a nodal-cuspidal curve B one could use the structure of the fundamental group of the complement of the branch curve to understand…
If $\alpha\in\r$, an $\alpha$-stationary surface in Euclidean space is a surface $\Sigma$ whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies $H(p)=\alpha |p|^{-2} \langle\nu,p\rangle$, $p\in\Sigma$. These surfaces generalize in dimension two a classical…
In this paper, we deal with the gluing of two surfaces, where the gluing locus is assumed to be a curve. We consider a moving frame along the gluing locus, and define developable surfaces with respect to the frame. Considering geometric…
We consider flat families of reduced curves on a smooth surface S such that each member C has the same number of singularities of fixed singularity types and the corresponding (locally closed) subscheme H of the Hilbert scheme of S. We are…
This article is the first in a series of two in which we study the vanishing cycles of curves in toric surfaces. We give a list of possible obstructions to contract vanishing cycles within a given complete linear system. Using tropical…
Fano surfaces parametrize the lines of smooth cubic threefolds. In this paper, we study their quotients by some of their automorphism sub-groups. We obtain in that way some interesting surfaces of general type.
The present paper deals with some characterizations of rectifying and osculating curves on a smooth surface with respect to the reference frame $\{\vec{T},\ \vec{N},\ \vec{T}\times\vec{N}\}$. We have computed the components of position…
We show that the mapping class group of an orientable finite type surface has uniformly exponential growth, as well as various closely related groups. This provides further evidence that mapping class groups may be linear.
Similar to the definition of Dupin hypersurface in Riemannian space forms, we define the spacelike Dupin hypersurface in Lorentzian space forms. As conformal invariant objects, spacelike Dupin hypersurfaces are studied in this paper using…
In the projective space $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$, we consider orbits of lines under the stabilizer group of the twisted cubic. In the literature, lines of $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$ are partitioned into classes, each of which is a union of line orbits.…
As a generalization of a quasi-elliptic surface, there is a quasi-hyperelliptic surface, a nonsingular projective surface which has a fibration structure whose general fiber is a quasi-hyperelliptic curve ($=$ singular hyperelliptic curve…
A {\em $1-$vertex triangulation} of an oriented compact surface $S$ of genus $g$ is an embedded graph $T\subset S$ with a unique vertex such that all connected components of $S\setminus T$ are triangles (adjacent to exactly 3 edges of $T$).…
In this article we obtain a complete description of the congruences of lines in $\p^4$ of order one provided that the fundamental surface $F$ is non-reduced (and possibly reducible) at one of its generic points, and their classification…
We study the geometry of surfaces in $\mathbb R^5$ by relating it to the geometry of regular and singular surfaces in $\mathbb R^4$ obtained by orthogonal projections. In particular, we obtain relations between asymptotic directions, which…
We classify all the surfaces of general type whose canonical map is composed with a pencil if they are the quotient of the diagonal action by an Abelian group acting over the product of two curves. As far as we know all the previous…
In this paper, we study the special curves and ruled surfaces on helix hypersurface whose tangent planes make a constant angle with a fixed direction in Euclidean n-space Besides, we observe some special ruled surfaces in and give…
In this paper, we define a new type of ruled surface called ruled surface by using the alternative frame of a base curve. Then, we study its differential geometric properties such as striction line, distribution parameter, fundamental…
We investigate helicoidal (screw) surfaces generated not only by regular curves but also by curves with singular points. For curves with singular points, it is useful to use frontals in the Euclidean plane. The helicoidal surface of a…
In this paper, we endow the family of all closed genus $g \ge 1$ surfaces with a structure of a (co)cyclic object in the category of 3-dimensional cobordisms. As a corollary, any $3$-dimensional TQFT induces a (co)cyclic module, which we…
