We study the local differential geometry of varieties $X^n\subset \Bbb C\Bbb P^{n+a}$ with degenerate secant and tangential varieties. We show that the second fundamental form of a smooth variety with degenerate tangential variety is…

We study the geometry of the secant and tangential variety of a cominuscule and minuscule variety, e.g. a Grassmannian or a spinor variety. Using methods inspired by statistics we provide an explicit local isomorphism with a product of an…

In this note we obtain the surjectivity of smooth maps into Euclidean spaces under mild conditions. As application we give a new proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. We also observe that any $C^1$-map from a compact manifold into…

Let $X \subseteq {\bf P}^N ={\bf P}^{2n}_K$ be a subvariety of dimension $n$ and $P \in {\bf P}^N$ a generic point. If the tangent variety Tan$ X$ is equal to ${\bf P}^N$ then for generic points $x$, $y$ of $X$ the projective tangent spaces…

Much of arithmetic geometry is concerned with the study of principal bundles. They occur prominently in the arithmetic of elliptic curves and, more recently, in the study of the Diophantine geometry of curves of higher genus. In particular,…

The Riemannian manifold of curves with a Sobolev metric is an important and frequently studied model in the theory of shape spaces. Various numerical approaches have been proposed to compute geodesics, but so far elude a rigorous…

This paper, we define the Mus-Gradient metric on tangent bundle $TM$ by a deformation non-conform of Sasaki metric over an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$. First we investigate the geometry of the Mus-Gradient metric and we…

On a normal projective variety the locus of $\mu$-stable bundles that remain $\mu$-stable on all Galois covers prime to the characteristic is open in the moduli space of Gieseker semi-stable sheaves. On a smooth projective curve of genus at…

In this paper we study the $X$-rank of points with respect to smooth linearly normal curves $X\subset \PP n$ of genus $g$ and degree $n+g$. We prove that, for such a curve $X$, under certain circumstances, the $X$-rank of a general point of…

We show the surjectivity of a specialisation map on higher $(0,1)$-cycles for a smooth projective scheme over an excellent henselian discrete valuation ring. This gives evidence for a conjecture stated in an article of Kerz, Esnault and…

We characterize general non-Markovian Gaussian maps which are covariant under Galilean transformations. In particular, we characterize translational and Galilean covariant maps and show that they reduce to the known Holevo result in the…

The tangential map is a map on the set of smooth planar curves. It satisfies the 3D-consistency property and is closely related to some well-known integrable equations.

For a submanifold with flat normal bundle in a space form there is a normal orthonormal basis that simultaneously diagonalizes the corresponding Weingarten operators, and at which these operators satisfy a simple Codazzi symmetry. When the…

We compute the expected value of various quantities related to the biparametric singularities of a pair of smooth centered Gaussian random fields on an n-dimensional compact manifold, such as the lengths of the critical curves and contours…

Gauging is a general procedure for mapping a quantum many-body system with a global symmetry to one with a local gauge symmetry. We consider a generalized gauging map that does not enforce gauge symmetry at all lattice sites, and show that…

We study cubic rational maps that take lines to plane curves. A complete description of such cubic rational maps concludes the classification of all planarizations, i.e., maps taking lines to plane curves.

We study conformal metrics with prescribed Gaussian curvature on surfaces with conical singularities and geodesic boundary in supercritical regimes. Exploiting a variational argument, we derive a general existence result for surfaces with…

We study ramified covers of the projective plane. Given a smooth projective surface S and a generic enough projection of S to the projective plane, we get a cover of the plane ramified over a plane curve. The branch curve is usually…

Consider $q_n$ a random pointed quadrangulation chosen equally likely among the pointed quadrangulations with $n$ faces. In this paper we show that, when $n$ goes to $+\infty$, $q_n$ suitably normalized converges weakly in a certain sense…

Projective spaces for finite-dimensional vector spaces over general fields are considered. The geometry of these spaces and the theory of line bundles over these spaces is presented. Particularly, the space of global regular sections of…
