The main result of the paper is a boundedness for $n$-complements on algebraic surfaces. In addition, applications of this theorem to a classification of log Del Pezzo surfaces and of birational contractions for 3-folds are formulated.
Prompted by results of Guardo, Van Tuyl and the second author for lines in projective 3 space, we develop asymptotic upper bounds for the least degree of a homogeneous form vanishing to order at least m on a union of disjoint r dimensional…
A classification of discrete integrable systems on quad-graphs, i.e. on surface cell decompositions with quadrilateral faces, is given. The notion of integrability laid in the basis of the classification is the three-dimensional…
We characterize the number of points for which there exist non-empty Terracini sets of points in $\mathbb{P}^n$. Then we study minimally Terracini finite sets of points in $\mathbb{P}^n$ and we obtain a complete description in the case of…
The main goal of this paper is to present an algorithm bounding the dimension of a linear system of curves of given degree (or monomial basis) with multiple points in general position. As a result we prove the Hirschowitz--Harbourne…
We study the fixed singularities imposed on members of a linear system of surfaces in P^3_C by its base locus Z. For a 1-dimensional subscheme Z \subset P^3 with finitely many points p_i of embedding dimension three and d >> 0, we determine…
We prove the sharp upper bound of at most $52$ lines on a complex K3-surface of degree four with a non-empty singular locus. We also classify the configurations of more than $48$ lines on smooth complex quartics.
A famous configuration of 27 lines on a non-singular cubic surface in $\mathbb P^3$ contains remarkable subconfigurations, and in particular the ones formed by six pairwise disjoint lines. We study such six-line configurations in the case…
We prove that the number of legendrian rational cubics in $\mathbb C P^3$ through three generic points and a line is three; also we classify all legendrian curves on a quadric surface. Several computations are additionally verified using…
A system of plane curves defined by prescribing n points of multiplicity m in general position is regular if n > (2m)^2. The proof uses computation of limits of linear systems acquiring fixed divisors, an interesting problem in itself.
Secant defectivity of projective varieties is classically approached via dimensions of linear systems with multiple base points in general position. The latter can be studied via degenerations. We exploit a technique that allows some of the…
We study the decomposability of a Lagrangian homology class on a K3 surface into a sum of classes represented by special Lagrangian submanifolds, and develop criteria for it in terms of lattice theory. As a result, we prove the…
We study linear series on a general curve of genus g, whose images are exceptional with respect to their secant planes. Each such exceptional secant plane is algebraically encoded by an included linear series, whose number of base points…
We develop a new technique for studying ranks of multiplication maps for linear series via limit linear series and degenerations to chains of genus-1 curves. We use this approach to prove a purely elementary criterion for proving cases of…
In this paper we prove the equivalence of two conjectures on linear systems through fat points on a generic K3 surface. The first conjecture is exactly as Segre conjecture on the projective plane. Whereas the second characterizes such…
In this paper we study the linear series $|L-3p|$ of hyperplane sections with a triple point $p$ on a surface $S$ embedded via a very ample line bundle $L$ for a \emph{general} point $p$. If this linear series does not have the expected…
We describe explicit birational maps from some rational complete intersections of three quadrics in $\mathbb{P}^7$ to some prime Fano manifolds together with their Sarkisov decomposition via a single Secant Flop, allowing us to recover the…
Recently, the first-named author gave a classification of 3D consistent 6-tuples of quad-equations with the tetrahedron property; several novel asymmetric 6-tuples have been found. Due to 3D consistency, these 6-tuples can be extended to…
The computation of the dimension of linear systems of plane curves through a bunch of given multiple points is one of the most classic issues in Algebraic Geometry. In general, it is still an open problem to understand when the points fail…
In the paper we develop a new method of proving non-speciality of a linear system with base fat points in general position. Using this method we show that the Hirschowitz-Harbourne Conjecture holds for systems with base points of equal…
