Considerations based on the known relation between different characteristic classes for singular hypersufaces suggest that a form of the `inclusion-exclusion' principle may hold for Segre classes. We formulate and prove such a principle for…

We give an algorithm for computing Segre classes of subschemes of arbitrary projective varieties by computing degrees of a sequence of linear projections. Based on the fact that Segre classes of projective varieties commute with…

We define the Segre numbers of an ideal as a generalization of the multiplicity of an ideal of finite colength. We prove generalizations of various theorems involving the multiplicity of an ideal such as a principle of specialization of…

Segre classes encode essential intersection-theoretic information concerning vector bundles and embeddings of schemes. In this paper we survey a range of applications of Segre classes to the definition and study of invariants of singular…

We express the Segre class of a monomial scheme -- or, more generally, a scheme monomially supported on a set of divisors cutting out complete intersections -- in terms of an integral computed over an associated body in euclidean space. The…

We derive a formula for the Milnor class of scheme-theoretic global complete intersections (with arbitrary singularities) in a smooth variety in terms of the Segre class of its singular scheme. In codimension one the formula recovers a…

Let $X \subset Y$ be closed (possibly singular) subschemes of a smooth projective toric variety $T$. We show how to compute the Segre class $s(X,Y)$ as a class in the Chow group of $T$. Building on this, we give effective methods to compute…

There is an explicit formula expressing the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a hypersurface in a nonsingular variety (in characteristic $0$) in terms of the Segre class of its jacobian subscheme; this has been known for a number of years.…

We generalize Fulton's Residual Intersection Theorem for the Segre class and express the Segre classes of schemes with regularly embedded components in terms of the Chern classes of the normal bundles to the components and their…

In 2013, Abo and Wan studied the analogue of Waring's problem for systems of skew-symmetric forms and identified several defective systems. Of particular interest is when a certain secant variety of a Segre-Grassmann variety is expected to…

We extend the concept of Segre's Invariant to vector bundles on a surface $X$. For $X=\mathbb{P}^2$ we determine what numbers can appear as the Segre Invariant of a rank $2$ vector bundle with given Chern's classes. The irreducibility of…

We use the "closed point sieve" to prove a variant of a Bertini theorem over finite fields. Specifically, given a smooth quasi-projective subscheme X of P^n of dimension m over F_q, and a closed subscheme Z in P^n such that Z intersect X is…

We prove a closed formula for the integrals of the top Segre classes of tautological bundles over the Hilbert schemes of points of a K3 surface X. We derive relations among the Segre classes via equivariant localization of the virtual…

A fundamental property of Segre classes is their birational invariance. This invariance implies that the Segre class of a closed subscheme only depends on the integral closure of the defining ideal sheaf. In this paper, we show that,…

We first give an alternative proof, based on a simple geometric argument, of a result of Marian, Oprea and Pandharipande on top Segre classes of the tautological bundles on Hilbert schemes of $K3$ surfaces equipped with a line bundle. We…

We study a class obtained from the Segre class $s(Z,Y)$ of an embedding of schemes by incorporating the datum of a line bundle on $Z$. This class satisfies basic properties analogous to the ordinary Segre class, but leads to remarkably…

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective variety of dimension at least 2 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 in the projective space ${\mathbb{P}}^n$. Bertini's Theorem states that a general hyperplane $H$ intersects…

We study intersection theory for differential algebraic varieties. Particularly, we study families of differential hypersurface sections of arbitrary affine differential algebraic varieties over a differential field. We prove the…

We present a method to compute the degrees of the Segre classes of a subscheme of complex projective space. The method is based on generic residuation and intersection theory. It has been implemented using the software system Macaulay2.

Let S be a nonsingular projective surface. Each vector bundle V on S of rank s induces a tautological vector bundle over the Hilbert scheme of n points of S. When s=1, the top Segre classes of the tautological bundles are given by a…
