In this paper we define $q$-spherical surfaces as the surfaces that contain the absolute conic of the Euclidean space as a $q-$fold curve. Particular attention is paid to the surfaces with singular points of the highest order. Two classes…
We develop the theory of arrangements of spheres. Consider a finite collection of codimension-$1$ subspheres in a positive-dimensional sphere. There are two posets associated with this collection: the poset of faces and the poset of…
In this note we give a complete description of all the hyperplane section of the projective bundle associated to the tangent bundle of $\mathbb{P}^2$ under its natural embedding in $\mathbb{P}^7.$ As an application one obtains a description…
In this paper, we give explicit equations for homogeneous spaces corresponding to a rational isogeny of degree $3$. An explicit set of elliptic curves with elements of order $3$ in their Tate-Shafarevich group is constructed. Combining this…
A plane curve $C$ in $\mathbb{P}^2$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is called plane-filling if $C$ contains every $\mathbb{F}_q$-point of $\mathbb{P}^2$. Homma and Kim, building on the work of Tallini, proved that the minimum degree of a smooth…
In the projective space $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$, we consider the orbits of lines under the stabilizer group of the twisted cubic. It is well known that the lines can be partitioned into classes every of which is a union of line orbits. All types…
A thin circular elastic sheet floating on a drop-like liquid substrate is deformed due to incompatibility between the curved substrate and the planar sheet. We adopt a variational viewpoint by minimizing the non-convex membrane energy…
In this paper we analyze a 2D free-boundary viscoelastic fluid model of Oldroyd-B type at infinite Weissenberg number. Our main goal is to show the existence of the so-called splash singularities, namely points where the boundary remains…
Turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection displays a large-scale order in the form of rolls and cells on lengths larger than the layer height once the fluctuations of temperature and velocity are removed. These turbulent superstructures are…
In the projective space $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$, we consider the 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…
Given a simply-connected simple algebraic group $G$, we determine the tangent space of any Finkelberg-Mirkovi\'c Schubert scheme at the base point of the affine Grassmannian of $G$. As a consequence, we exhibit non-reduced…
For each $1\leq n\leq6$ we present formulas for the number of $n-$nodal curves in an $n-$dimensional linear system on a smooth, projective surface. This yields in particular the numbers of rational curves in the system of hyperplane…
Given a Lagrangian submanifold in linear symplectic space, its tangent sweep is the union of its (affine) tangent spaces, and its tangent cluster is the result of parallel translating these spaces so that the foot point of each tangent…
The infinite superpositions of random plane waves are known to be threaded with vortex line singularities which form complicated tangles and obey strict topological rules. We observe that within these structures a timelike axis appears to…
The problem of construction of the surfaces with given sets of the points with horizontal tangential planes is considered. Such considerations are of interest in the problem of computer simulations of the waved ocean surfaces.
In this paper we study the intersection theory on surfaces with abelian quotient singularities and we derive properties of quotients of weighted projective planes. We also use this theory to study weighted blow-ups in order to construct…
Let $H$ be a non-empty set of hyperplanes in $PG(4,q)$, $q$ even, such that every point of $PG(4,q)$ lies in either $0$, $\frac12q^3$ or $\frac12(q^3+q^2)$ hyperplanes of $ H$, and every plane of $PG(4,q)$ lies in $0$ or at least $\frac12q$…
In this paper we present a way of computing the degree of the secant (resp., tangent) variety of a smooth projective surface, under the assumption that the divisor giving the embedding in the projective space is $3$-very ample. This method…
In this paper we study combinatorial invariants of the equivalence classes of pencils of cubics on $\mathrm{PG}(1,q)$, for $q$ odd and $q$ not divisible by 3. These equivalence classes are considered as orbits of lines in…
In this paper, we introduce the new class of twisted $B$-splines and study some properties of these B-splines. We also investigate the system of twisted translates and the wavelets corresponding to these twisted $B$-splines.
