A calligraph is a graph that for almost all edge length assignments moves with one degree of freedom in the plane, if we fix an edge and consider the vertices as revolute joints. The trajectory of a distinguished vertex of the calligraph is…

Let G be a simple linear algebraic group defined over the complex numbers. Fix a proper parabolic subgroup P of G and a nontrivial antidominant character \chi of P. We prove that a holomorphic principal G-bundle E over a connected complex…

Given a bichromatic point set $P=\textbf{R} \cup \textbf{B}$ of red and blue points, a separator is an object of a certain type that separates $\textbf{R}$ and $\textbf{B}$. We study the geometric separability problem when the separator is…

We consider plane curves isomorphic to C*. We prove that with one exception the branches at infinity can be separated by an automorphism of C^2. We also give a bound for selfintersection number of the resolution curve.

We study the Asymptotic Cone of Teichm\"uller space equipped with the Weil-Petersson metric. In particular, we provide a characterization of the canonical finest pieces in the tree-graded structure of the asymptotic cone of Teichm\"uller…

We give a geometric approach to the relation between the irreducible components of the characteristic varieties of local systems on a plane curve arrangement complement and the associated pencils of plane curves discovered recently by M.…

The moduli space of canonical divisors (with prescribed zeros and poles) on nonsingular curves is not compact since the curve may degenerate. We define a proper moduli space of twisted canonical divisors in the moduli space of…

Given a real algebraic curve, embedded in projective space, we study the computational problem of deciding whether there exists a hyperplane meeting the curve in real points only. More generally, given any divisor on such a curve, we may…

We study Lefschetz pencils on symplectic four-manifolds via the associated spheres in the moduli spaces of curves, and in particular their intersections with certain natural divisors. An invariant defined from such intersection numbers can…

We find for g at most 5 a stratification of depth g-2 of the moduli space of curves M_g with the property that its strata are affine and the classes of their closures provide a Q-basis for the Chow ring of M_g. The first property confirms a…

We define ramified and split models of elliptic surfaces and study the relation between the two models. We focus on certain rational elliptic surfaces from these points of views and as an application, we give an observation on bitantgent…

The Separation of Variables theory for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation is 'by definition' related to the use of special kinds of coordinates, for example Jacobi coordinates on the ellipsoid or St\"ackel systems in the Euclidean space. However,…

We prove that the moduli space of curves with level structures has an enormous amount of rational cohomology in its cohomological dimension. As an application, we prove that the coherent cohomological dimension of the moduli space of curves…

We construct a family of smooth supersingular curves of genus $5$ in characteristic $2$ with several notable features: its dimension matches the expected dimension of any component of the supersingular locus in genus $5$, its members are…

This work is motivated by two central questions in the birational geometry of moduli spaces of curves -- Fulton's conjecture and the effective cone of $\bar M_g$. We study the algebro-geometric aspect of Teichmuller curves parameterizing…

It is proven that for any topological or analytical types of isolated singular points of plane curves, there exists a non-real irreducible plane algebraic curve of degree $d$ which goes through $d^2$ real distinct points and has imaginary…

The paper gives topological as well as rigid isotopy classification of smooth irreducible algebraic curves in the real projective 3-space for the case when the degree of the curve is at most six and its genus is at most one.

The purpose of the present article is the study of duals of functional codes on algebraic surfaces. We give a direct geometrical description of them, using differentials. Even if this geometrical description is less trivial, it can be…

Given a smooth curve of genus 2 embedded in P^(d-2) with a complete linear system of degree d>=6, we list all types of rational normal scrolls arising from linear systems g^1_2 and g^1_3 on C. Furthermore, we give a description of the ideal…

We establish a twistor correspondence between a cuspidal cubic curve in a complex projective plane, and a co-calibrated homogeneous $G_2$ structure on the seven--dimensional parameter space of such cubics. Imposing the Riemannian reality…
