We introduce a notion of good cohomology for multiple lines in $\mathbb{P}^3$ and we classify multiple lines with good cohomology up to multiplicity 4. In particular, we show that the family of space curves of degree d, not lying on a…

In this paper we consider the question of determining the geometric genera of irreducible curves lying on a very general surface $S$ of degree $d$ at least 5 in $\mathbb{P}^3$ (the cases $d \leqslant 4$ are well known). We introduce the set…

We discuss the Picard group of moduli space $\mathcal{K}_g$ of quasi-polarized K3 surfaces of genus $g\leq 12$ and $g\neq 11$. In this range, $\mathcal{K}_g$ is unirational and a general element in $\mathcal{K}_g$ is a complete intersection…

We consider the conjecture that all artinian height 4 complete intersections of forms of the same degree $d$ have the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP). We translate this problem to one of studying the general hyperplane section of a certain…

We provide a classification of developable cubic hypersurfaces in $\mathbb P^4$. Using the correspondence between forms of degree $3$ on $\mathbb P^4$ and Artinian Gorenstein $\mathbb K$-algebras, given by Macaulay-Matlis duality, we…

Let $\mathcal{H}_g$ denote the moduli space of smooth hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ in characteristic $p\geq 3$, and let $\mathcal{H}_g^f$ denote the $p$-rank $f$ stratum of $\mathcal{H}_g$ for $0 \leq f \leq g$. Achter and Pries note…

We denote by $\mathcal{H}_{d,g,r}$ the Hilbert scheme of smooth curves, which is the union of components whose general point corresponds to a smooth, irreducible and non-degenerate curve of degree $d$ and genus $g$ in $\mathbb{P}^r.$ In…

We consider the locus of irreducible nonsingular rational curves of degree d Pn, n>2, meeting a generic collection of linear subspaces. When this locus is 0 (resp 1)- dimensional, we compute (recursively) its degree (resp. geometric genus).…

A graded Artinian algebra $A$ has the Weak Lefschetz Property if there exists a linear form $\ell$ such that the multiplication map by $\ell:[A]_i\to [A]_{i+1}$ has maximum rank in every degree. The linear forms satisfying this property…

The aim of this paper is two--fold. We first strongly improve our previous main result Theorem 3.1 in Arxiv 1702.00918v3 12Feb2018 ("Brill-Noether loci of rank two vector bundles on a general $\nu$-gonal curve"), concerning classification…

Given a maximal geodesic lamination $\lambda$ on a closed oriented surface $S$ of genus $g$, the space of $d$-pleated surfaces with pleating locus $\lambda$ is an open subset of $\mathrm{Hom}(\pi_1(S),\mathsf{PGL}_d(\mathbb{C}))$ obtained…

In this paper, we study the Brill-Noether theory of the normalizations of singular, irreducible curves on a $K3$ surface. We introduce a {\em singular} Brill-Noether number $\rho_{sing}$ and show that if the Picard group of the K3 surface…

We consider modular properties of nodal curves on general $K3$ surfaces. Let $\mathcal{K}_p$ be the moduli space of primitively polarized $K3$ surfaces $(S,L)$ of genus $p\geqslant 3$ and $\mathcal{V}_{p,m,\delta}\to \mathcal{K}_p$ be the…

We study the birational maps of $\mathbb{P}^3_\mathbb{C}$. More precisely we describe the irreducible components of the set of birational maps of bidegree $(3,3)$ (resp. $(3,4)$, resp. $(3,5)$).

We consider diagonal cubic surfaces defined by an equation of the form ax^3+by^3+cz^3+dt^3 = 0. Numerically, one can find all rational points of height < B for B in the range of up to 100 000, thanks to a program due to D. J. Bernstein. On…

Kalu\v{z}a, Kopeck\'a and the author have shown that the best Lipschitz constant for mappings taking a given $n^{d}$-element set in the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$, with $n\in \mathbb{N}$, surjectively to the regular $n$ times $n$ grid…

The Etzion-Silberstein conjecture asserts that, for any finite field $\mathbb F$, Ferrers diagram $\mathcal D$, and integer $d$, there exists a linear matrix code supported on $\mathcal D$ with minimum rank distance $d$ that attains a…

In this article, we continue the study of $L^p$-boundedness of the maximal operator $\mathcal M_S$ associated to averages along isotropic dilates of a given, smooth hypersurface $S$ in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. We focus here on small…

The toric Hilbert scheme of a lattice L in Z^n is the multigraded Hilbert scheme parameterizing all ideals in k[x_1,...,x_n] with Hilbert function value one for every degree in the grading monoid N^n/L. In this paper we show that if L is…

We study two special families of cubic hypersurfaces with vanishing Hessian in $\mathbb{P}^N$, obtaining rational parametrizations and computing their degree in $\mathbb{P}(S_3)$. For $N \leq 6$, these two families exhaust the locus of…
