Let C : y^2=f(x) be a hyperelliptic curve defined over the rationals. Let K be a number field and suppose f factors over K as a product of irreducible polynomials f=f_1 f_2...f_r. We shall define a "Selmer set" corresponding to this…

It goes back to Ahlfors that a real algebraic curve $C$ admits a separating morphism $f$ to the complex projective line if and only if the real part of the curve disconnects its complex part, i.e. the curve is \textit{separating}. The…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be the germ at $\mathbf{0} \in \mathbb{C}^n$ of a holomorphic foliation of dimension $d$, $1 \leq d < n$, with an isolated singularity at $\mathbf{0}$. We study its geometry and topology using ideas that originate in the…

Let C be a non-hyperelliptic algebraic curve of genus at least 3. Enriques and Babbage proved that its canonical image is the intersection of the quadrics that contain it, except when C is trigonal (that is, it has a linear system of degree…

Let $X$ be a complex surface and $Y$ be an elliptic curve embedded in $X$. Assume that there exists a non-singular holomorphic foliation $\mathcal{F}$ with $Y$ as a compact leaf, defined on a neighborhood of $Y$ in $X$. We investigate the…

Let X be a K\"ahler manifold and D be a R-divisor with simple normal crossing support and coefficients between 1/2 and 1. Assuming that K_X+D is ample, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a negatively curved Kahler-Einstein metric on…

This paper investigates the differential-geometric and topological properties of the Cayley condition in Poncelet porism for triangles, defined as the locus of pairs of non-degenerate conics that admit a Poncelet triangle. While the…

We consider infinite connected quasi-transitive locally finite graphs and show that every such graph with more than one end is a tree amalgamation of two other such graphs. This can be seen as a graph-theoretical version of Stallings'…

Given a Q-Cartier divisor $S \subset X$ admitting a fibration $S \rightarrow B$ onto a curve we give sufficient conditions for the existence of a bimeromorphic contraction contracting S onto B. As a corollary we recover a contraction result…

Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface, $\Sigma$ a finite set of points and $M = X\setminus \Sigma$. We study the $L^2$ cohomology of a polarized complex variation of Hodge structure on a Galois covering of the Riemann surface of finite type…

In this paper, we want to study the link between the presence of compact objects with some analytic structure and the global geometry of a weakly complete surface. We begin with a brief survey of some now classic results on the local…

Using a factorization theorem due to Pasynkov we provide a short proof of the existence and density of parametric Bing and Krasinkiewicz maps. In particular, the following corollary is established: Let $f\colon X\to Y$ be a surjective map…

In this paper we explore conditions for a curve in a smooth projective surface to have a free product of cyclic groups as the fundamental group of its complement. It is known that if the surface is $\mathbb P^2$, then such curves must be of…

We observe that there is an equivalence between the singularity category of an affine complete intersection and the homotopy category of matrix factorizations over a related scheme. This relies in part on a theorem of Orlov. Using this…

Fujita's second theorem for K\"ahler fibre spaces over a curve asserts that the direct image $V$ of the relative dualizing sheaf splits as the direct sum $ V = A \oplus Q$, where $A$ is ample and $Q$ is unitary flat. We focus on our…

The paper is devoted to the problem when a map from some closed connected manifold to an aspherical closed manifold approximately fibers, i.e., is homotopic to Manifold Approximate Fibration. We define obstructions in algebraic K-theory.…

A well known consequence of the Wirtinger inequality is that in a Kaehler surface a holomorphic curve is an area minimizer in its homology class. In light of this result it is natural, given a Kaehler surface, to investigate the relation…

One can consider the Hilbert scheme as a natural compactification of the space of smooth projective curves with fixed Hilbert polynomial. Here we consider a different modular compactification, namely the functor CM parameterizing curves…

Let $\mathcal C :f=0$ be a curve arrangement in the complex projective plane. If $\mathcal C$ contains a curve subarrangement consisting of at least three members in a pencil, then one obtains an explicit syzygy among the partial…
