Classical Castelnuovo's Lemma shows that the number of linearly independent quadratic equations of a nondegenerate irreducible projective variety of codimension $c$ is at most ${{c+1} \choose {2}}$ and the equality is attained if and only…

We introduce and study a notion of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity suitable for scrolls obtained as projectivisations of sums of line bundles on $\mathbb P^m$. We show that this is a natural generalisation of the well known regularity on…

In this paper we prove a theorem stated by Castelnuovo which bounds the dimension of linear systems of plane curves in terms of two invariants, one of which is the genus of the curves in the system. Then we classify linear systems whose…

We estimate the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of ideals in a polynomial ring over a field by studying the regularity of certain modules generated in degree zero and with linear relations. In dimension one, this process gives a new type of…

In order to study projections of smooth curves, we introduce multifiltrations obtained by combining flags of osculating spaces. We classify all configurations of singularities occurring for a projection of a smooth curve embedded by a…

We exploit an elementary specialization technique to study some properties of rational curves on index $n-1$ Fano $n$-folds. We prove a simple formula for counting rational curves passing through a suitable number of points in the case…

We introduce and study a notion of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity suitable for rational normal scroll surfaces. In this setting we prove analogs of some classical properties. We prove splitting criteria for coherent sheaves and a…

By means of an {\it ad hoc} modification of the so-called ``Castelnuovo-Harris analysis" we derive an upper bound for the genus of integral curves on the three dimensional nonsingular quadric which lie on an integral surface of degree $2k$,…

The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of a module gives a rough measure of its complexity. We bound the regularity of a module given a system of approximating modules whose regularities are known. Such approximations can arise naturally for…

The solution to the general univariate polynomial equation has been sought for centuries. It is well known there is no general solution in radicals for degrees five and above. The hyper-Catalan numbers $C[m_2,m_3,m_4,\ldots]$ count the ways…

Considering digital ink as plane curves provides a valuable framework for various applications, including signature verification, note-taking, and mathematical handwriting recognition. These plane curves can be obtained as parameterized…

In order to count the number of smooth cubic hypersurfaces tangent to a prescribed number of lines and passing through a given number of points, we construct a compactification of their moduli space. We term the latter a…

Using generalized binomial coefficient identities and some results of John Dougall, we derive some families of series involving the cubes of Catalan numbers. We also establish a family of series containing fourth powers of Catalan numbers.…

We consider the general problem of enumerating branched covers of the projective line from a fixed general curve subject to ramification conditions at possibly moving points. Our main computations are in genus 1; the theory of limit linear…

This paper gives explicit formulas for the reduction number and the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of projective monomial curves.

This paper investigates the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the generic hyperplane section of projective curves in positive characteristic case, and yields an application to a sharp bound on the regularity for nondegenerate projective…

A "truncation" of Pascal's triangle is a triangular array of numbers that satisfies the usual Pascal recurrence but with a boundary condition that declares some terminal set of numbers along each row of the array to be zero. Presented here…

Classical Castelnuovo Lemma shows that the number of linearly independent quadratic equations of a nondegenerate irreducible projective variety of codimension $c$ is at most ${{c+1} \choose {2}}$ and the equality is attained if and only if…

The Catalan numbers (C_n)_{n >= 0} = 1,1,2,5,14,42,... form one of the most venerable sequences in combinatorics. They have many combinatorial interpretations, from counting bracketings of products in non-associative algebra to counting…

We obtain a formula for the number of genus one curves with a fixed complex structure of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This enumerative problem is expressed…
