We show that tautological integrals on Hilbert schemes of points can be written in terms of universal polynomials in Chern numbers. The results hold in all dimensions, though they strengthen known results even for surfaces by allowing…
We obtain a precise relation between the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a subvariety of projective space and the Euler characteristics of its general linear sections. In the case of a hypersurface, this leads to simple proofs of…
In this paper we obtain some explicit expressions for the Euler characteristic of a rank n coherent sheaf F on P^N and of its twists F(t) as polynomials in the Chern classes c_i(F), also giving algorithms for the computation. The employed…

As an application of universal polynomials for local and multi-singularities of maps, we revisit classical enumerative formulae of Salmon-Cayley-Zeuthen for projective surfaces and analogous formulae of Segre-(B.)Severi-Roth for projective…
For the moduli spaces of Abelian differentials, the Euler characteristic is one of the most basic intrinsic topological invariants. We give a formula for the Euler characteristic that relies on intersection theory on the smooth…
We revisit Allendoerfer-Weil's formula for the Euler characteristic of embedded hypersurfaces in constant sectional curvature manifolds, first taking some time to re-prove it while demonstrating techniques of [2] and then applying it to…
We stratify families of projective and very affine hypersurfaces according to their topological Euler characteristic. Our new algorithms compute all strata using algebro-geometric techniques. For very affine hypersurfaces, we investigate…
For $N \in \mathbb{N}$, let $T_{N}$ be the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind. Expressions for the sequence of numbers $p_{\ell}^{(N)}$, defined as the coefficients in the expansion of $1/T_{N}(1/z)$, are provided. These coefficients…
Binomial Eulerian polynomials first appeared in work of Postnikov, Reiner and Williams on the face enumeration of generalized permutohedra. They are $\gamma$-positive (in particular, palindromic and unimodal) polynomials which can be…
In this article we provide another method for obtaining explicit formulas yielding counts of secant planes to a projective curve. We formulate the problem in terms of Segre classes of suitable bundles over the symmetric product of the curve…
We prove that a rational linear combination of Chern numbers is an oriented diffeomorphism invariant of smooth complex projective varieties if and only if it is a linear combination of the Euler and Pontryagin numbers. In dimension at least…
What polynomial in the coefficients of a system of algebraic equations should be called its discriminant? We prove a package of facts that provide a possible answer. Let us call a system typical, if the homeomorphic type of its set of…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $0$. We present an explicit algorithm that, given the invariants of a generic homogeneous polynomial $f$ under the linear action of $\mathrm{GL}_n$ or $\mathrm{SL}_n$, returns a polynomial differing from…
The classical Eulerian polynomials $A_n(t)$ are known to be gamma positive. Define the positive Eulerian polynomial $A_n^+(t)$ as the polynomial obtained when we sum descents over the alternating group. We show that $A_n^+(t)$ is gamma…
The Euler discriminant of a family of very affine varieties is defined as the locus where the Euler characteristic drops. In this work, we study the Euler discriminant of families of complements of hyperplanes. We prove that the Euler…
For $m$ an even positive integer and $p$ a prime, we show that the generalized Euler polynomial $E_{mp}^{(mp)}(x)$ is in Eisenstein form with respect to $p$ if and only if $p$ does not divide $m (2^m-1)B_m$. As a consequence, we deduce that…
We define twisted Alexander polynomials of a complex hypersurface with arbitrary singularities. These generalize the classical Alexander polynomials of high dimensional hypersurfaces and the twisted Alexander polynomial of plane curves. We…
