We denote by $\mathcal{H}_{d,g,r}$ the Hilbert scheme of smooth curves, which is the union of components whose general point corresponds to a smooth irreducible and non-degenerate curve of degree $d$ and genus $g$ in $\mathbb{P}^r$. In this…

These lectures give a short introduction to the study of curves on algebraic varieties. After an elementary proof of the dimension formula for the space of curves, we summarize the basic properties of uniruled and of rationally connected…

This paper is the text of a lecture given at the Catania conference on Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry, in honor of the 60th birthday of Silvio Greco. It analyses the correspondences between equivalence classes of objects related…

We prove Conjecture 4.16 of the paper [EL21] of Elagin and Lunts; namely, that a smooth projective curve of genus at least 1 over a field has diagonal dimension 2.

The aim of this paper is to classify reduction types of algebraic curves. Reduction types capture the discrete invariants of fibres in one-dimensional families of curves, and they have been described in genus 1, 2 and 3. For fixed genus…

Consider a field $k$ of characteristic $0$, not necessarily algebraically closed, and a fixed algebraic curve $f=0$ defined by a tame polynomial $f\in k[x,y]$ with only quasi-homogeneous singularities. We prove that the space of holomorphic…

In this paper, first and second type admissible Mannheim partner curves are defined in pseudo-Galilean space $G_3^1$. Moreover, it is proved that the distance between the reciprocal points of both of first and second type admissible…

We obtain a formula for the degrees of the varieties parameterizing complex algebraic curves of any divisor class and genus on P^2_6, the projective plane blown-up at 6 generic points. Moreover, the formula computes the degrees of the…

For prime degree hypersurfaces of dimension at least 3, Mori asked if every smooth proper limit is still a hypersurface. Interestingly in dimensions 1 and 2, this is not the case. For example, Griffin constructed explicit families of…

Given a smooth complex variety $X$, an algebraically skew embedding of $X$ is an embedding of $X$ into a complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^N$ such that for any two points $x,y\in X$, their embedded tangent spaces in $\mathbb{P}^N$ do not…

We obtain a formula for the number of genus one curves with a fixed complex structure of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This enumerative problem is expressed…

We give explicit computational algorithms to construct minimal degree (always $\le 4$) ramified covers of $\Prj^1$ for algebraic curves of genus 5 and 6. This completes the work of Schicho and Sevilla (who dealt with the $g \le 4$ case) on…

The problem of arrangement of a real algebraic curve on a real algebraic surface is related to the 16th Hilbert problem. We prove in this paper new restrictions on arrangement of nonsingular real algebraic curves on an ellipsoid. These…

In this paper the author provides a generalization of classical linkage, i.e. linkage by a complete intersection, in a different context. Namely she looks at residuals in the scheme theoretic intersection of a rational normal surface or…

A linear series on a curve C in $P^3$ is "primary" when it does not contain the series cut by planes. We provide a lower bound for the degree of these series, in terms of deg(C), g(C) and of the number $s = min{i: h^0(I_C(i))\neq 0}$; as a…

Let $X$ be an irreducible projective variety of dimension $n$ in a projective space and let $x$ be a point of $X$. Denote by ${\rm Curves}_d(X,x)$ the space of curves of degree $d$ lying on $X$ and passing through $x$. We will show that the…

Let $C$ be a curve of genus two. We denote by $SU_C(3)$ the moduli space of semi-stable vector bundles of rank 3 and trivial determinant over $C$, and by $J^d$ the variety of line bundles of degree $d$ on $C$. In particular, $J^1$ has a…

Given a real algebraic curve, embedded in projective space, we study the computational problem of deciding whether there exists a hyperplane meeting the curve in real points only. More generally, given any divisor on such a curve, we may…

Eisenbud and Harris conjectured in 1982 that an algebraic curve of high genus lies on a surface of low degree (which they proved for curves of very large degree). They observed constraints on the Hilbert function of a general hyperplane…

A canonically-embedded curve of genus $g$ is a pure 1-dimensional, non-degenerate subscheme $C$ of ${\bf P}^{g-1}$ over an algebraically closed field $k$, for which ${\cal O}_C(1) \cong \omega_C$, (the dualizing sheaf)$ and $h^0(C, {\cal…
