We study associative multiplications in semi-simple associative algebras over C compatible with the usual one. An interesting class of such multiplications is related to the affine Dynkin diagrams of A, D, E-type. In this paper we…
Let $f(x,y)=0$ and $l(x,y)=0$ be respectively a singular and a regular analytic curve defined in the neighborhood of the origin of the complex plane. We study the family of analytic curves $f(x,y)-tl(x,y)^M=0$, where $t$ is a complex…
A finite subgroup of the conformal group SL(2,C) can be related to invariant polynomials on a hypersurface in C^3. The latter then carries a simple singularity, which resolves by a finite iteration of basic cycles of deprojections. The…
We give two constructions of families of elliptic curves over cubic or quartic fields with three, respectively four, `integral' elements in the kernel of the tame symbol on the curves. The fields are in general non-Abelian, and the elements…
We bound the j -invariant of integral points on a modular curve in terms of the congruence group defining the curve. We apply this to prove that the modular curve Xsplit (p3) has no non-trivial rational point if p is a sufficiently large…
We provide sharp lower bounds for the multiplicity of a local holomorphic foliation defined in a complex surface in terms of data associated to a germ of invariant curve. Then we apply our methods to invariant curves whose branches are…
There is a modular curve X'(6) of level 6 defined over Q whose Q-rational points correspond to j-invariants of elliptic curves E over Q for which Q(E[2]) is a subfield of Q(E[3]). In this note we characterize the j-invariants of elliptic…
We consider families of schemes over arbitrary fields resp. analytic varieties with finitely many (not necessarily reduced) isolated non-normal singularities, in particular families of generically reduced curves. We define a modified delta…
This is the abstract prepared for Workshop on Topology and Geometry (Zhang jiang, China, October 1994), and is a review of my recent works. What kinds of combinations of singularities can appear in small deformation fibers of a fixed…
We generalize Siegel's theorem on integral points on affine curves to integral points of bounded degree, giving a complete characterization of affine curves with infinitely many integral points of degree d or less over some number field.…
We report on the problem of the existence of complex and real algebraic curves in the plane with prescribed singularities up to analytic and topological equivalence. The question is whether, for a given positive integer $d$ and a finite…
This is a continuation of our previous paper 1502.01744. We examine a class of non-commutative algebras A that depend on an elliptic curve and a translation automorphism of it. They may be defined in terms of the 4-dimensional Sklyanin…
Let $(S,H)$ be a general primitively polarized $K3$ surface. We prove the existence of curves in $|\mathcal O_S(nH)|$ with $A_k$-singularities and corresponding to regular points of the equisingular deformation locus. Our result is optimal…
This paper announces results on the behavior of some important algebraic and topological invariants --- Euler characteristic, arithmetic genus, and their intersection homology analogues; the signature, etc. --- and their associated…
We classify the possible discrete (finite) symmetries of two--dimensional critical models described by unitary minimal conformally invariant theories. We find that all but six models have the group Z_2 as maximal symmetry. Among the six…
In this paper, we study non-hyperelliptic curves of genus $3$ with cyclic automorphism group of order $6$. Over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $\neq 2,3$, such curves are written as plane quartics $C_r: x^3 z + y^4 + r…
We develop an algorithm to test whether a non-CM elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ gives rise to an isolated point of any degree on any modular curve of the form $X_1(N)$. This builds on prior work of Zywina which gives a method for computing…
The purpose of this paper is to exhibit infinite families of conjugate projective curves in a number field whose complement have the same abelian fundamental group, but are non-homeomorphic. In particular, for any $d>3$ we find Zariski…
We use the method of algebraic restrictions to classify symplectic $U_7$, $U_8$ and $U_9$ singularities. We use discrete symplectic invariants to distinguish symplectic singularities of the curves. We also give the geometric description of…
We give a complete description of the cluster-mutation classes of diagrams of Dynkin types \mathbb{A},\mathbb{B},\mathbb{D} and of affine Dynkin types \mathbb{B}^{(1)},\mathbb{C}^{(1)},\mathbb{D}^{(1)} via certain families of diagrams.
