Let X and Y be two smooth projective n-dimensional algebraic varieties X and Y over C with trivial canonical line bundles. We use methods of p-adic analysis on algebraic varieties over local number fields to prove that if X and Y are…

We propose two systems of "intrinsic" signs for counting such curves. In both cases the result acquires an exceptionally strong invariance property: it does not depend on the choice of a surface. One of our counts includes all divisor…

We give constructions to realize an odd number, which is representable as sum of two squares, as determinant of an achiral knot, thus proving that these are exactly the numbers occurring as such determinants. Later we study which numbers…

We propose an intuitive interpretation for nontrivial $L^2$-Betti numbers of compact Riemann surfaces in terms of certain loops in embedded pairs of pants. This description uses twisted homology associated to the Hurewicz map of the…

We prove relations between the number of $k$-connected components of a graph, Crapo's invariant $\beta(M)$ of a matroid, and Speyer's polynomial $g_M(t)$. These yield a simple interpretation of $g_M'(-1)$ when $M$ is graphic or cographic.…

We study the asymptotic proportion of smooth plane curves over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ which are tangent to every line defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$. This partially answers a question raised by Charles Favre. Our techniques include…

We look into computational aspects of two classical knot invariants. We look for ways of simplifying the computation of the coloring invariant and of the Alexander module. We support our ideas with explicit computations on pretzel knots.

In this paper, we explore when the Betti numbers of the coordinate rings of a projective monomial curve and one of its affine charts are identical. Given an infinite field $k$ and a sequence of relatively prime integers $a_0 = 0 < a_1 <…

Welschinger invariants are signed counts of real rational curves satisfying contraints. Quadratic Gromov--Witten invariants give such counts over general fields of characteristic different from 2 and 3. For rational del Pezzo surfaces over…

In this paper, new representations of a Bertrand curve pair in three dimensional Lie groups with bi-invariant metric are given. Besides, the spherical indicatrices of a Bertrand curve pair are obtain and the relations between the spherical…

We study the motivic Pandharipande-Thomas invariants of the Enriques Calabi-Yau threefolds in fiber curve classes by basic computations and analysis of a wallcrossing formula of Toda. Motivated by our results we conjecture a formula for the…

The emergence of Boij-S\"oderberg theory has given rise to new connections between combinatorics and commutative algebra. Herzog, Sharifan, and Varbaro recently showed that every Betti diagram of an ideal with a k-linear minimal resolution…

Let I be an arbitrary ideal in C[[x,y]]. We use the Newton algorithm to compute by induction the motivic zeta function of the ideal, yielding only few poles, associated to the faces of the successive Newton polygons. We associate a minimal…

A reduction of Benney's equations is constructed corresponding to Schwartz-Christoffel maps associated with a family of genus six cyclic tetragonal curves. The mapping function, a second kind Abelian integral on the associated Riemann…

The classical results, initiated by Castelnuovo and Fano and later refined by Eisenbud and Harris, provide several upper bounds on the number of quadrics defining a nondegenerate projective variety. Recently, it has been revealed that these…

We give a survey on L^2-invariants such as L^2-Betti numbers and L^2-torsion taking an algebraic point of view. We discuss their basic definitions, properties and applications to problems arising in topology, geometry, group theory and…

We present a proof of the algorithm for computing line bundle valued cohomology classes over toric varieties conjectured by R.~Blumenhagen, B.~Jurke and the authors (arXiv:1003.5217) and suggest a kind of Serre duality for combinatorial…

We give a characterization of symplectic quadratic Lie algebras that their Lie algebra of inner derivations has an invertible derivation. A family of symplectic quadratic Lie algebras is introduced to illustrate this situation. Finally, we…

In this paper, we obtain a combinatorial formula for computing the Betti numbers in the linear strand of edge ideals of bipartite Kneser graphs. We deduce lower and upper bounds for regularity of powers of edge ideals of these graphs in…

We work on a projective threefold $X$ which satisfies the Bogomolov-Gieseker conjecture of Bayer-Macr\`i-Toda, such as $\mathbb P^3$ or the quintic threefold. We prove certain moduli spaces of 2-dimensional torsion sheaves on $X$ are smooth…
