We study $N$-congruences between quadratic twists of elliptic curves. If $N$ has exactly two distinct prime factors we show that these are parametrised by double covers of certain modular curves. In many, but not all cases, the modular…

The conchoid of a plane curve $C$ is constructed using a fixed circle $B$ in the affine plane. We generalize the classical definition so that we obtain a conchoid from any pair of curves $B$ and $C$ in the projective plane. We present two…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field. In this paper, we consider the class of smooth plane curves of degree $n+1>3$ over $\mathbb{K}$, containing three points, $P_1,P_2,$ and $P_3$, such that $nP_1+P_2$, $nP_2+P_3$, and…

An orthogonal bundle over a curve has an isotropic Segre invariant determined by the maximal degree of a Lagrangian subbundle. This invariant, and the induced stratifications on moduli spaces of orthogonal bundles, were studied for bundles…

A conjecture of Berkovich asserts that every non-simple finite p-group has a non-inner automorphism of order p. This conjecture is far from being proved despite the great effort devoted to it. In this paper we prove it for p-groups of…

According to a conjecture of Pach, there are $O(n)$ tangent pairs among any family of $n$ Jordan arcs in which every pair of arcs has precisely one common point and no three arcs share a common point. This conjecture was proved for two…

An oriented link L in a 3-sphere S in complex 2-space is a C-boundary if it bounds a piece of algebraic curve in the 4-ball bounded by S. Using Kronheimer and Mrowka's proof of the Thom Conjecture, we construct many oriented knots which are…

It is proven that for any topological or analytical types of isolated singular points of plane curves, there exists a non-real irreducible plane algebraic curve of degree $d$ which goes through $d^2$ real distinct points and has imaginary…

Let $D$ be a strongly connected digraphs on $n\ge 4$ vertices. A vertex $v$ of $D$ is noncritical, if the digraph $D-v$ is strongly connected. We prove, that if sum of the degrees of any two adjacent vertices of $D$ is at least $n+1$, then…

In this paper we have shown without assuming the four color theorem of planar graphs that every (bridgeless) cubic planar graph has a three-edge-coloring. This is an old-conjecture due to Tait in the squeal of efforts in settling the…

We prove that every three-dimensional polyhedron is uniquely determined by its dihedral angles and edge lengths, even if nonconvex or self-intersecting, under two plausible sufficient conditions: (i) the polyhedron has only convex faces and…

A positive integer $n$ is called a tiling number if the equilateral triangle can be dissected into $nk^2$ congruent triangles for some integer $k$. An integer $n>3$ is tiling number if and only if at least one of the elliptic curves…

In this paper we prove the Eisenbud-Goto conjecture for connected curves. We also investigate the structure of connected curves for which this bound is optimal. In particular, we construct connected curves of arbitrarily high degree in…

A plane curve $C\subset\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $d$ is called \emph{blocking} if every $\mathbb{F}_q$-line in the plane meets $C$ at some $\mathbb{F}_q$-point. We prove that the proportion of blocking curves among those of degree $d$ is…

Consider an oriented curve $\Gamma$ in a domain $D$ in the plane $\boldsymbol R^2$. Thinking of $D$ as a piece of paper, one can make a curved folding in the Euclidean space $\boldsymbol R^3$. This can be expressed as the image of an…

We determine all groups which occur as torsion subgroups of $\mathbb Q$-curves defined over number fields of degrees $3$, $5$ and $7$. In particular, we prove that every torsion subgroup of a $\mathbb Q$-curve defined over a number field of…

We find new examples of complex surfaces with countably many non-isomorphic algebraic structures. Here is one such example: take an elliptic curve $E$ in $\mathbb P^2$ and blow up nine general points on $E$. Then the complement $M$ of the…

Let $X$ be the product of two projective spaces and consider the general CICY threefold $Y$ in $X$ with configuration matrix $A$. We prove the finiteness part of the analogue of the Clemens' conjecture for such a CICY in low bidegrees. More…

We prove that for any partition of the plane into a closed set $C$ and an open set $O$ and for any configuration $T$ of three points, there is a translated and rotated copy of $T$ contained in $C$ or in $O$. Apart from that, we consider…

We say a closed point $x$ on a curve $C$ is sporadic if there are only finitely many points on $C$ of degree at most deg$(x)$. In the case where $C$ is the modular curve $X_1(N)$, most known examples of sporadic points come from elliptic…
