In this, largely expository, note, we show how the simplicial structure of the moduli spaces of stable rational curves with marked points allows to produce explicit equations for these spaces. The key argument is an elementary combinatorial…
Analytic curves are classified w.r.t. their symmetry under a regular and separately analytic Lie group action on an analytic manifold. We show that an analytic curve is either exponential or splits into countably many analytic immersive…
We proved the existence of rational curves in every linear system on a general K3 surface and that all rational curves in the hyperplane class are nodal on a general K3 surface of small genus.
We study neighborhoods of rational curves in surfaces with self-intersection number 1 that can be linearised.
Rational maps on the Riemann sphere occupy a distinguished niche in the general theory of smooth dynamical systems. First, rational maps are complex-analytic, so a broad spectrum of techniques can contribute to their study (quasiconformal…
We show, for each algebraically closed field, the rationality of the following two moduli spaces: M(3,3) parametrizing pairs (C, \eta) where C has genus 3 and \eta is a 3-torsion divisor class, respectively of M(3,<3>) parametrizing pairs…
One distinguishing feature of rational curves is that they have algebraic parameterizations. Arc spaces are a way of describing approximations to parameterizations of all curves in some fixed space. Playing on these descriptions, this paper…
We give a summary of joint work with Michael Thaddeus that realizes toroidal compactifcations of split reductive groups as moduli spaces of framed bundles on chains of rational curves. We include an extension of this work that covers Artin…
In this series of three papers we start to investigate the rational Chow ring of the stack consisting of nodal curves of genus 0, in particular we determine completely the rational Chow ring of the substack consisting of curves with at most…
The logarithmic multiplicative group is a proper group object in logarithmic schemes, which morally compactifies the usual multiplicative group. We study the structure of the stacks of logarithmic maps from rational curves to this…
We consider the connection of functional decompositions of rational functions over the real and complex numbers, and a question about curves on a Riemann sphere which are invariant under a rational function.
We prove the irreducibility of moduli spaces of rational curves on a general del Pezzo threefold of Picard rank $1$ and degree $1$. As corollaries, we confirm Geometric Manin's conjecture and enumerativity of certain Gromov-Witten…
We proved that the union of rational curves is dense on a very general K3 surface and the union of elliptic curves is dense in the 1st jet space of a very general K3 surface, both in the strong topology.
Let k be a finite field with characteristic exceeding 3. We prove that the space of rational curves of fixed degree on any smooth cubic hypersurface over k with dimension at least 11 is irreducible and of the expected dimension.
This paper is concerned with rational curves on real classical groups. Our contributions are three-fold: (i) We determine the structure of quadratic rational curves on real classical groups. As a consequence, we completely classify…
A complex-analytic structure within the unit disk of the complex plane is presented. It can be used to represent and analyze a large class of real functions. It is shown that any integrable real function can be obtained by means of the…
We define a strongly normalising proof-net calculus corresponding to the logic of strongly compact closed categories with biproducts. The calculus is a full and faithful representation of the free strongly compact closed category with…
We show that under mild boundary conditions the moduli space of non-compact curves on a complex surface is (locally) an analytic subset of a ball in a Banach manifold, defined by {\it finitely} many holomorphic function.
We prove that the moduli space of plane curves of degree d is rational for all sufficiently large d.
We enumerate smooth rational curves on very general Weierstrass fibrations over hypersurfaces in projective space. The generating functions for these numbers lie in the ring of classical modular forms. The method of proof uses topological…
