The goal of this paper is to establish a new characterization of quasi-homogeneous isolated singularities of free curves and nearly free curves $C$ in $\mathbb{P}_\mathbb{C}^2$. The criterion will be in terms of a first syzygy matrix…
We compute the $F$-pure threshold of some non-principal ideals which satisfy a geometric generic condition about their Newton polyhedron. We also contribute some evidence in favor of the conjectured equality between the $F$-pure threshold…
A closed subscheme of codimension two $T \subset P^2$ is a quasi complete intersection (q.c.i.) of type $(a,b,c)$ if there exists a surjective morphism $\mathcal{O} (-a) \oplus \mathcal{O} (-b) \oplus \mathcal{O} (-c) \to \mathcal{I} _T$.…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of quasi-$F$-splitting for rings in mixed characteristic. By comparing quasi-$F$-splitting with perfectoid purity, we obtain a new inversion of adjunction-type result. Furthermore, we study the…
We classify hyperbolic polynomials in two real variables that admit a transitive action on some component of their hyperbolic level sets. Such surfaces are called special homogeneous surfaces, and they are equipped with a natural Riemannian…
Let $I\subset \mathbb C[x,y,z]$ be an ideal of height 2 and minimally generated by three homogeneous polynomials of the same degree. If $I$ is a locally complete intersection we give a criterion for $\mathbb C[x,y,z]/I$ to be arithmetically…
The Hilbert function of a module over a positively graded algebra is of quasi-polynomial type (Hilbert--Serre). We derive an upper bound for its grade, i.e. the index from which on its coefficients are constant. As an application, we give a…
Using the Frobenius map, we introduce a new invariant for a pair $(R,\a)$ of a ring $R$ and an ideal $\a \subset R$, which we call the F-pure threshold $\mathrm{c}(\a)$ of $\a$, and study its properties. We see that the F-pure threshold…
We give a quasihomogeneity criterion for Gorenstein curves. For complete intersections, it is related to the first step of Vasconcelos' normalization algorithm. In the process, we give a simplified proof of the Kunz-Ruppert criterion.
We give a criterion for a quasi-ordinary polynomial to be irreducible. The criterion is based on the notion of approximate roots and that of generalized Newton polygons.
The $F$-pure threshold is the characteristic $p$ counter part of the log canonical threshold in characteristic zero. It is a numerical invariant associated to the singularities of a variety, hence computing its value is important. We give a…
We consider quantum interpolation of polynomials. We imagine a quantum computer with black-box access to input/output pairs (x_i, f(x_i)), where f is a degree-d polynomial, and we wish to compute f(0). We give asymptotically tight quantum…
In this note, we study F-purity of pairs, and show (as is the case with log canonicity) that F-purity is preserved at the F-pure threshold. We also characterize when F-purity is equivalent to sharp F-purity, an alternate notion of purity…
We provide an irreducibility test in the ring K[[x]][y] whose complexity is quasi-linear with respect to the valuation of the discriminant, assuming the input polynomial F square-free and K a perfect field of characteristic zero or greater…
We study the plus-pure threshold (ppt) of hypersurfaces in mixed characteristic. We show that the ppt limits to the $F$-pure threshold (fpt) as we ramify the base DVR. Additionally, we show that analogs of some positive characteristic…
A theorem is proved concerning approximation of analytic functions by multivariate polynomials in the $s$-dimensional hypercube. The geometric convergence rate is determined not by the usual notion of degree of a multivariate polynomial,…
If a reduced bivariate polynomial is quasi-homogeneous, then its discriminant is a monomial. Over fields of characteristic $0$, we show that if one adds another simple condition, this becomes an equivalence. We also give a third equivalent…
It is well known that every quasi-Fuchsian manifold admits at least one closed incompressible minimal surface, and at most finitely many of them. In this paper, for any prescribed integer $N>0$, we construct a quasi-Fuchsian manifold which…
We study a function field version of a classical problem concerning square-free values of polynomials evaluated at primes. We show that for a square-free polynomial $f\in \mathbb{F}_q[t][x]$, there is a limiting density as $n\to \infty$ of…
In the paper we prove Harbourne-Hirschowitz conjecture for quasi-homogeneous linear systems on $\mathbb P^2$ for $m=7$, 8, 9, 10, i.e. systems of curves of given degree passing through points in general position with multiplicities at least…
