The parametric degree of a rational surface is the degree of the polynomials in the smallest possible proper parametrization. An example shows that the parametric degree is not a geometric but an arithmetic concept, in the sense that it…

We address the question of the degree of unirational parameterizations of degree four and degree three del Pezzo surfaces. Specifically we show that degree four del Pezzo surfaces over finite fields admit degree two parameterizations and…

Let $F$ be a non-negatively graded free module over a polynomial ring $\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ generated by $m$ basis elements. Let $M$ be a submodule of $F$ generated by elements in $F$ with degrees bounded by $D$ and dim $F/M$=$r$. We…

We propose a general study of standard bases of polynomial ideals with parameters in the case where the monomial order is arbitrary. We give an application to the computation of the stratification by the local Hilbert-Samuel function.…

We prove that, if \mu<\lfloor n/2\rfloor, then every rational plane curve of degree n and class \mu is a limit of parametrizations of the same degree and class \mu+1. This property was conjectured in D.Cox, T.Sederberg,F.Chen's paper: "The…

This paper shows that the multiplicity of the base points locus of a projective rational surface parametrization can be expressed as the degree of the content of a univariate resultant. As a consequence, we get a new proof of the degree…

We present an algorithm that covers any given rational ruled surface with two rational parametrizations. In addition, we present an algorithm that transforms any rational surface parametrization into a new rational surface parametrization…

The problem of finding all minimal surfaces presented in parametric form as polynomials of certain degree is discussed by many authors. It is known that the classical Enneper surface is (up to position in space and homothety) the only…

We introduce the notion of radical parametrization of a surface, and we provide algorithms to compute such type of parametrizations for families of surfaces, like: Fermat surfaces, surfaces with a high multiplicity (at least the degree…

In this thesis, we present various contributions to the study of free boundary minimal surfaces. After introducing some basic tools and discussing some delicate aspects related to the definition of Morse index when allowing for a contact…

For a Del Pezzo surface of degree 8 given over the rationals we decide whether there is a rational parametrization of the surface and construct one in the affirmative case. We define and use the Lie algebra of the surface to reach the aim.…

We describe a minimal set of generators of the defining ideal of the Rees Algebra associated to a proper parametrization of any monoid hypersurface. In the case of plane curves, we recover a known description for rational parametrizations…

The current paper discusses some new results about conformal polynomic surface parameterizations. A new theorem is proved: Given a conformal polynomic surface parameterization of any degree it must be harmonic on each component. As a first…

We study degree two unirational parameterizations of geometrically rational surfaces over the real field.

We use function field analytic number theory to establish the irreducibility and dimension of the moduli space that parameterises morphisms of fixed degree from $\mathbb{P}^2$ to an arbitrary smooth hypersurface of sufficiently small…

We are interested in finding a nonlinear polynomial $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ that solves the minimal surface equation. Even though no explicit solution is found in this article, we investigate constraints that a polynomial solution must obey.…

We give upper bounds for the number of rational points of bounded anti-canonical height on del Pezzo surfaces of degree at most five over any global field whose characteristic is not equal to two or three. For number fields these results…

Smooth complex surfaces polarized with an ample and globally generated line bundle of degree three and four, such that the adjoint bundle is not globally generated, are considered. Scrolls of a vector bundle over a smooth curve are shown to…

Inspired by the Taubes-Wu construction of $\mathcal{C}^{1,\alpha}$ two-valued harmonic functions by the use of symmetry, we construct minimal surfaces with stratified branching sets as graphs of $\mathcal{C}^{1,\alpha}$ two-valued…
