We find a formula, in terms of n, d and p, for the value of the F-pure threshold for the generic homogeneous polynomial of degree d in n variables over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. We also show that, in every…
In this note we introduce the notion of $(b,d)$-geprofi sets and study their basic properties. These are sets of $bd$ points in $\mathbb{P}^4$ whose projection from a general point to a hyperplane is a full intersection, i.e., the…
For a nonempty compact set D of R we determine the maximal possible dimension of a subspace X of polynomial functions of degree at most m which possesses a positive bases (where positivity is understood on D). The exact value of this…
In different areas of discrete mathematics, a certain type of polynomials, having coefficients in a field K of finite characteristic, has been considered. The form and the degree of these polynomials, here called projective, are simply…
Let $k$ be a field and $V$ an $k$-vector space. For a family $\bar P=\{ P_i\}_{1\leq i\leq c}, $ of polynomials on $V$, we denote by $\mathbb X _{\bar P}\subset V$ the subscheme defined by the ideal generated by $ \bar P$. We show the…
We prove that for genus greater than or equal to 5, the moduli space of super Riemann surfaces is not projected (and in particular is not split): it cannot be holomorphically projected to its underlying reduced manifold. Physically, this…
We discuss, in a non-Archimedean setting, the distribution of the coefficients of $L$-polynomials of curves of genus $g$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Among other results, this allows us to prove that the $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space spanned by such…
In this paper we study a particular class of polynomials. We study the distribution of their zeros, including the zeros of their derivatives as well as the interaction between this two. We prove a weak variant of the sendov conjecture in…
The specialized V\'amos polynomial is a hyperbolic polynomial of degree four in four variables with the property that none of its powers admits a definite determinantal representation. We will use a heuristical method to prove that its…
We prove that there is no d such that all finite projective planes can be represented by convex sets in R^d, answering a question of Alon, Kalai, Matousek, and Meshulam. Here, if P is a projective plane with lines l_1,...,l_n, a…
We show that the d-th secant variety of a projective curve of genus g imbedded in projective space by a complete linear system of degree 2g-2+m, with m at least 2d+3, does not contain linear spaces of dimension bigger than d-1, and that the…
The existence of a vector field on a compact Kaehler manifold with nonempty zero locus and the properties of this zero locus strongly influence the geometry of the manifold. For example, J. Wahl proved that the existence of a vector field…
We analyze self-dual polyhedral cones and prove several properties about their slack matrices. In particular, we show that self-duality is equivalent to the existence of a positive semidefinite (PSD) slack. Beyond that, we show that if the…
Given n general points p_1, p_2,..., p_n \in P^r, it is natural to ask whether there is a curve of given degree d and genus g passing through them; by counting dimensions a natural conjecture is that such a curve exists if and only if \[n…
We prove that the space of smooth rational curves of degree $e$ in a general complete intersection of multidegree $(d_1, ..., d_m)$ in $\PP^n$ is irreducible of the expected dimension if $\sum_{i=1}^m d_i <\frac{2n}{3}$ and $n$ is large…
We completely characterize the first two entries, namely the $(f_0, f_1)$-vector pairs, for $6$-dimension polytopes. We also find the characterization for $7$-dimension polytopes with excess degree greater than $11$ and, we conjecture…
The paper studies the question of existence of polynomials with given roots over associative non-commutative rings with identity. It is shown that in the case of an associative division ring for arbitrary n elements of this ring there…
We consider characterizations of projective varieties in terms of their tangents. S. Mori established the characterization of projective spaces in arbitrary characteristic by ampleness of tangent bundles. J. Wahl characterized projective…
We are interested in finding a nonlinear polynomial $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ that solves the minimal surface equation. Even though no explicit solution is found in this article, we investigate constraints that a polynomial solution must obey.…
We study Poncelet's Theorem in finite projective coordinate planes over the field $GF(p)$ and concentrate on a particular pencil of conics. For pairs of such conics we investigate whether we can find polygons with $n$ sides, which are…
