The geometric objects of study in this paper are K3 surfaces which admit a polarization by the unique even unimodular lattice of signature (1,17). A standard Hodge-theoretic observation about this special class of K3 surfaces is that their…
Normal forms allow the use of a restricted class of coordinate transformations (typically homogeneous polynomials) to put the bifurcations found in nonlinear dynamical systems into a few standard forms. We investigate here the consequences…
We compute the transgressed forms of some modularly invariant characteristic forms,which are related to the twisted elliptic genera. We study the modularity properties of these secondary characteristic forms and relations among them. We…
We classify simple parametrisations of complex curve singularities. Simple means that all neighbouring singularities fall in finitely many equivalence classes. We take the neighbouring singularities to be the ones occurring in the versal…
A Q-homology plane is a normal complex algebraic surface having trivial rational homology. We obtain a structure theorem for Q-homology planes with smooth locus of non-general type. We show that if a Q-homology plane contains a non-quotient…
We consider the isomonodromic deformations of irregular-singular connections defined on principal bundles over complex curves: for any complex reductive structure group G, and any polar divisor; allowing for a twisted/ramified formal normal…
We combine the newly discovered technique, which computes explicit formulas for the image of an algebraic curve under rational transformation, with techniques that enable to compute braid monodromies of such curves. We use this combination…
We prove that, if two germs of plane curves $(C,0)$ and $(C',0)$ with at least one singular branch are equivalent by a (real) smooth diffeomorphism, then $C$ is complex isomorphic to $C'$ or to $\overline{C'}$. A similar result was shown by…
In this paper we study flatness of the restriction on some special subgerms (e.g. the reduction and the unmixed part) of the total space of a flat morphism over a smooth base space. We give a relationship between reducedness of the total…
This paper is devoted to study the generic fold-fold singularity of Filippov systems on the plane, its unfoldings and its Sotomayor-Teixeira regularization. We work with general Filippov systems and provide the bifurcation diagrams of the…
The theory of moduli of morphisms on P^n generalizes the study of rational maps on P^1. This paper proves three results about the space of morphisms on P^n of degree d > 1, and its quotient by the conjugation action of PGL(n+1). First, we…
We study codimension one holomorphic foliations on complex projective spaces and compact manifolds under the assumption that the foliation has a projective transverse structure in the complement of some invariant codimension one analytic…
In this article, we study isomorphisms between complements of irreducible curves in the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$, over an arbitrary algebraically closed field. Of particular interest are rational unicuspidal curves. We prove that if…
We provide a description of W_3 transformations in terms of deformations of convex curves in two dimensional Euclidean space. This geometrical interpretation sheds some light on the nature of finite W_3-morphisms. We also comment on how…
We investigate geometric properties of surfaces given by certain formulae. In particular, we calculate the singular curvature and the limiting normal curvature of such surfaces along the set of singular points consisting of singular points…
We give unique analytic "normal forms" for germs of a holomorphic vector field of the complex plane in the neighborhood of an isolated singularity of saddle-node type having a convergent formal separatrix. We specifically address the…
We show that a complex normal surface singularity admitting a contracting automorphism is necessarily quasihomogeneous. We also describe the geometry of a compact complex surface arising as the orbit space of such a contracting…
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…
The paper is devoted to relations between topological and metric properties of germs of real surfaces, obtained by analytic maps from $R^2$ to $R^4$. We show that for a big class of such surfaces the normal embedding property implies the…
We consider the problem of birationally modifying a morphism of complete varieties to make it a morphism from a nonsingular variety to a normal variety. Our main result is to give a counterexample to this problem. This example also is a…
