An ongoing problem in the study of a classical many-body system is the characterization of its equilibrium behaviour by theory or numerical simulation. For purely repulsive particles, locating the melting line in the pressure-temperature…

We investigate the relations between the syzygies of the Jacobian ideal of the defining equation for a plane curve $C$ and the stability of the sheaf of logarithmic vector fields along $C$, the freeness of the divisor $C$ and the Torelli…

This is an improved version of the eprint previously entitled "Unexpected isomorphisms between hyperk\"ahler fourfolds." We study smooth projective hyperk\"ahler fourfolds that are deformations of Hilbert squares of K3 surfaces and are…

Let $k,n \geq 2$ be integers. A generalized Fermat curve of type $(k,n)$ is a compact Riemann surface $S$ that admits a subgroup of conformal automorphisms $H \leq \mbox{Aut}(S)$ isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}_k^n$, such that the quotient…

We prove a lower bound for the topological complexity, in the sense of Smale, of the problem of finding a flex point on a cubic plane curve. The key is to bound the Schwarz genus of a cover associated to this problem. We also show that our…

We show that we can obtain a reducible spherical curve from any non-trivial spherical curve by four or less inverse-half-twisted splices, i.e., the reductivity, which represents how reduced a spherical curve is, is four or less. We also…

We prove discrete analogs of four-vertex type theorems of spherical curves, which imply corresponding results for space polygons. The smooth theory goes back to the work of Beniamino Segre and, more recently, by Mohammad Ghomi, and consists…

We describe the period matrix and other data on a higher genus Riemann surface in terms of data coming from lower genus surfaces via an explicit sewing procedure. We consider in detail the construction of a genus two Riemann surface by…

Supersymmetric curves are the analogue of Riemann surfaces in super geometry. We establish some foundational results about complex Deligne-Mumford superstacks, and we then prove that the moduli superstack of supersymmetric curves is a…

This paper presents a more complete version than hitherto published of our explanation of a transition from regular to irregular motions and more generally of the nature of a certain kind of deterministic chaos. To this end we introduced a…

In characteristic $p>0$ and for $q$ a power of $p$, we compute the number of nonplanar rational curves of arbitrary degrees on a smooth Hermitian surface of degree $q+1$ under the assumption that the curves have a parametrization given by…

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve of genus $g$ and gonality 4. We show that the canonical model of $X$ is contained in a uniquely defined surface, ruled by conics, whose geometry is deeply related to that of $X$. This surface…

If a curve in R^3 is closed, then the curvature and the torsion are periodic functions satisfying some additional constraints. We show that these constraints can be naturally formulated in terms of the spectral problem for a 2x2 matrix…

This paper investigates the global properties of a class of spherically symmetric spacetimes. The class contains the maximal development of asymptotically flat spherically symmetric initial data for a wide variety of coupled Einstein-matter…

In this paper, we study the curve cone of an almost complex $4$-manifold which is tamed by a symplectic form. In particular, we prove the cone theorem as in Mori theory for all such manifolds using the Seiberg-Witten theory. For small…

A taming symplectic structure provides an upper bound on the area of an approximately pseudoholomorphic curve in terms of its homology class. We prove that, conversely, an almost complex manifold with such an area bound admits a taming…

In this manuscript we prove that if two cuspidal plane curves have equivalent braid monodromy factorizations, then they are smoothly isotopic in the plane. As a consequence of this and the Chisini conjecture, we obtain that if two…

The "square peg problem" or "inscribed square problem" of Toeplitz asks if every simple closed curve in the plane inscribes a (non-degenerate) square, in the sense that all four vertices of that square lie on the curve. By a variety of…

We discuss the theorem on the existence of six points on a convex closed plane curve in which the curve has a contact of order six with the osculating conic. (This is the ``projective version'' of the well known four vertices theorem for a…

Tyomkin's correspondence theorem states the equality of counts of rational curves of fixed homology class in a toric surface satisfying point and cross-ratio conditions with their tropical counterparts. Such correspondence theorems allow us…
