Hyperbolism of a given curve with respect to a point and a line is an interesting construct, a special kind of geometric locus, not frequent in the literature. While networking between two different kinds of mathematical software, we…

In the classical case of irreducible smooth algebraic curves every genus $2$ curve is hyperelliptic, or in other words there is a complete linear series $g_2^1$ on them. On the other hand if $g > 2$, then a generic smooth curve of genus $2$…

For certain tropical quartic curves the existing techniques could not predict the lifting behavior of their bitangents over the real numbers. We close this gap by using patchworking techniques. Further, this paper provides an analysis of…

The main aim of this paper is to investigate Darboux rectifying curves on a smooth surface immersed in the Euclidean space. First, we discuss the component of the position vector of a Darboux rectifying curve on a smooth immersed surface…

In this paper we study curves in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\mathbb{L}^2$ that are critical points of the moment of inertia with respect to the origin. This extends a problem posed by Euler in the Lorentzian setting. We obtain explicit…

We study embedded rational curves in projective toric varieties. Generalizing results of the first author and Zotine for the case of lines, we show that any degree $d$ rational curve in a toric variety $X$ can be constructed from a special…

We show that a set of $n$ algebraic plane curves of constant maximum degree can be cut into $O(n^{3/2}\operatorname{polylog} n)$ Jordan arcs, so that each pair of arcs intersect at most once, i.e., they form a collection of pseudo-segments.…

We study generalisations to totally real fields of methods originating with Wiles and Taylor-Wiles. In view of the results of Skinner-Wiles on elliptic curves with ordinary reduction, we focus here on the case of supersingular reduction.…

Let $\pi:M\to B$ be a proper holomorphic submersion between complex manifolds and ${\cal E}$ a holomorphic bundle on $M$. We study and describe explicitly the torsion subsheaf $\mathrm{Tors}(R^1\pi_*({\cal E}))$ of the first direct image…

In this paper, we give an elementary new method for determining the rational points on algebraic curves using torsion packets. We also provide examples of curves for which all rational points can be completely determined by our method.

We are interested in shapes of real algebraic curves in the plane and regions surrounded by them: they are named refined algebraic domains by the author. As characteristic finite sets, we consider points contained in two curves and the sets…

We first show that the union of a projective curve with one of its extremal secant lines satisfies the linear general position principle for hyperplane sections. We use this to give an improved approximation of the Betti numbers of curves…

We give a geometric characterization of compact Riemann surfaces admitting orientation reversing involutions with fixed points. Such surfaces are generally called real surfaces and can be represented by real algebraic curves with non-empty…
