A complex elliptic curve $E$ can be defined as the quotient of the analytic space $\mathbb{C}^*$ by a discrete action of the cyclic group $q^{\mathbb{Z}}$ for $\vert q\vert \neq 1$. We study the boundary case when $\vert q\vert =1$, which…
Starting with the general description of a moving curve, we have recently presented a unified formalism to show that three distinct space curve evolutions can be identified with a given integrable equation. Applying this to the nonlinear…
Integrals of motion are constructed from noncommutative (NC) Kepler dynamics, generating $SO(3),$ $SO(4),$ and $SO(1,3)$ dynamical symmetry groups. The Hamiltonian vector field is derived in action-angle coordinates, and the existence of a…
One-dimensional sigma-models with N supersymmetries are considered. For conventional supersymmetries there must be N-1 complex structures satisfying a Clifford algebra and the constraints on the target space geometry can be formulated in…
We consider a scalar quantum field theory, in which the interaction takes the form of a field cutoff; the energy diverges to infinity whenever the value of the field at some point falls outside a finite interval. In a simple…
The Information-Theoretic Schottky Problem treats the period matrix of a compact Riemann Surface as a compressible signal. In this case, the period matrix of a smooth plane curve is characterized by only 4 of its columns, a significant…
Given a projective smooth curve $X$ over any field $k$, we discuss two notions of global $\mathbb{A}^1$ degree of a finite morphism of smooth curves $f: X \to \mathbb{P}^1_k$ satisfying certain conditions. One originates from computing the…
A dynamical system with discrete time is studied by means of algebraic geometry. The system admits a reduction that is interpreted as a classical field theory in 2+1-dimensional wholly discrete space-time. The integrals of motion of a…
Particles moving on a radial ray with respect to a Schwarzschild mass are shown to have SU(1,1)/U(1) dynamical symmetry. This symmetry is used to identify a global time variable shared by all test particles moving on a radial ray. With this…
The Serpinsky-Knopp curve is characterized as the only curve (up to isometry) that maps a unit segment onto a triangle of a unit area, so for any pair of points in the segment, the square of the distance between their images does not exceed…
A $k$-nucleus of a normal rational curve in PG$(n,F)$ is the intersection over all $k$-dimensional osculating subspaces of the curve ($k\in\{-1,0,...,n-1\}$). It is well known that for characteristic zero all nuclei are empty. In case of…
Topological strings on toric Calabi--Yau threefolds can be defined non-perturbatively in terms of a free Fermi gas of N particles. Using this approach, we propose a definition of quantum mirror curves as quantum distributions on phase…
We explain how the spectral curve can be extracted from the ${\cal W}$-representation of a matrix model. It emerges from the part of the ${\cal W}$-operator, which is linear in time-variables. A possibility of extracting the spectral curve…
Let $X$ be a smooth cubic threefold. By invoking ideas from Geometric Manin's Conjecture, we give a complete description of the main components of the Kontsevich moduli space of genus one stable maps $\overline{M}_{1,0}(X)$. In particular,…
A simple closed curve in the Euclidean plane is said to have property C_n(R) if at each point we can inscribe a unique regular $n$-gon with edges length $R$. C_2(R) is equivalent to having constant diameter. We show that smooth curves…
We determine the splitting (isomorphism) type of the normal bundle of a generic genus-0 curve with 1 or 2 components in any projective space, as well as the (sometimes nontrivial) way the bundle deforms locally with a general deformation of…
By considering the three dimensional Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}_1$ as a flat model of pseudo-hermitian manifolds, the authors in [8] derived the Frenet-Serret formulas for curves in $\mathbb{H}_1$. In this notes we show three applications…
The splice quotients are an interesting class of normal surface singularities with rational homology sphere links, defined by W. Neumann and J. Wahl. If Gamma is a tree of rational curves that satisfies certain combinatorial conditions,…
N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories for all classical gauge groups, that is, for SU(N), SO(N), and Sp(N) is considered. The equations which define the Seiberg-Witten curve are proposed. In some cases they are solved. It is shown that for…
Modular curves like X_0(N) and X_1(N) appear very frequently in arithmetic geometry. While their complex points are obtained as a quotient of the upper half plane by some subgroups of SL_2(Z), they allow for a more arithmetic description as…
