We consider 2-surfaces arising from the Korteweg de Vries (KdV) equation. The surfaces corresponding to KdV are in a three dimensional Minkowski space. They contain a family of quadratic Weingarten and Willmore-like surfaces. We show that a…
This is a continuation of "Rational curves on hypersurfaces of low degree", math.AG/0203088. We prove that if d^2+d+1 < n and d > 2, then for a general hypersurface X_d in P^n of degree d, for each degree e the space of rational curves of…
We classify compact complex surfaces which contain a Zariski open subset whose universal covering is the cylinder DxC.
Segre surfaces in the title mean quartic surfaces in $\mathbb{CP}^4$ which are the images of weak del Pezzo surfaces of degree four under the anti-canonical map. We first show that minimal minitwistor spaces with genus one are exactly Segre…
We construct a sequence of compact, oriented, embedded, two-dimensional surfaces of genus one into Euclidean 3-space with prescribed, almost constant, mean curvature of the form $H(X)=1+{A}{|X|^{-\gamma}}$ for $|X|$ large, when $A<0$ and…
We describe some properties of the Bers quasiform on a compact Riemann surface in the Schottky sewing scheme. Our main results are: (i) the expansion of meromorphic differential forms in terms of holomorphic forms and derivatives of the…
We add two new 1-parameter families to the short list of known embedded triply periodic minimal surfaces of genus 4 in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Both surfaces can be tiled by minimal pentagons with two straight segments and three planar symmetry…
We find the first examples of triply periodic minimal surfaces of which the intrinsic symmetries are all of horizontal type.
A construction of algebraic surfaces based on two types of simple arrangements of lines, containing the prototiles of substitution tilings, has been proposed recently. The surfaces are derived with the help of polynomials obtained from…
A translation surface in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\rr^3$ is a surface defined as the sum of two spatial curves. In this paper we present a classification of maximal surfaces of translation type. We prove that if a generating curve is…
Observing a linear superposition principle, a family of new minimal hypersurfaces in Euclidean space is found, as well as that linear combinations of generalized helicoids induce new algebraic minimal cones of arbitrarily high degree.
A periodic automorphism of a surface $\Sigma$ is said to be extendable over $S^3$ if it extends to a periodic automorphism of the pair $(S^3,\Sigma)$ for some possible embedding $\Sigma\to S^3$. We classify and construct all extendable…
We show that tautological integrals on Hilbert schemes of points can be written in terms of universal polynomials in Chern numbers. The results hold in all dimensions, though they strengthen known results even for surfaces by allowing…
We construct families of hyperbolic hypersurfaces $X_d\subset\mathbb{P}^{n+1}(\mathbb{C})$ of degree $d\geq {\textstyle{(\frac{n+3}{2})^2}}$.
Simple properties of the Gauss map characterise important classes of surfaces in $\Rq$: $R$-surfaces, the real version of plane complex curves; Lagrangean surfaces; isoclinic surfaces.
The Danielewski hypersurfaces are the hypersurfaces $X_{Q,n}$ in $\mathbb{C}^3$ defined by an equation of the form $x^ny=Q(x,z)$ where $n\geq1$ and $Q(x,z)$ is a polynomial such that $Q(0,z)$ is of degree at least two. They were studied by…
We examine embedding diagrams of hypersurfaces in the Reissner-Nordstrom black hole spacetime. These embedding diagrams serve as useful tools to visualize the geometry of the hypersurfaces and of the whole spacetime in general.
In this paper, we construct and classify minimal surfaces foliated by horizontal constant curvature curves in product manifolds $M \times \R$, where $M$ is the hyperbolic plane, the Euclidean plane or the two dimensional sphere. The main…
We obtain a precise relation between the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a subvariety of projective space and the Euler characteristics of its general linear sections. In the case of a hypersurface, this leads to simple proofs of…
The main results of A. Zorich and I. Dynnikov about plane sections of periodic surfaces are extended to the PL case. As an application, the Stereographic Map of a truncated octahedron, extended to the whole $\Rt$ by periodicity, is analyzed…
