We describe here some recent progress pertaining to the Serre Intersection Multiplicity Conjecture. In particular, we show that if A is an unramified regular local ring, then just as in the equicharacteristic case, the intersection…
Nonuniform tubular neighborhoods of curves in Euclidean n-space are studied by using weighted distance functions and generalizing the normal exponential map. Different notions of injectivity radii are introduced to investigate singular but…
We prove that many aspects of the differential geometry of embedded Riemannian manifolds can be formulated in terms of multi linear algebraic structures on the space of smooth functions. In particular, we find algebraic expressions for…
We investigate the maximum number of intersections between two polygons with p and q vertices, respectively, in the plane. The cases where p or q is even or the polygons do not have to be simple are quite easy and already known, but when p…
We classify the singular loci of real surfaces in three-space that contain two circles through each point. We characterize how a circle in such a surface meets this loci as it moves in its pencil and as such provide insight into the…
We show how the Eulcidean algorithm for polynomials can be used to find the intersection points, with multiplicities, of two plane algebraic curves.
We propose an iterated version of the Gilbert model, which results in a sequence of random mosaics of the plane. We prove that under appropriate scaling, this sequence of mosaics converges to that obtained by a classical Poisson line…
We prove a strong relation between Chern and log Chern invariants of algebraic surfaces. For a given arrangement of curves, we find nonsingular projective surfaces with Chern ratio arbitrarily close to the log Chern ratio of the log surface…
We study the minimal degrees and gonalities of curves on complete intersections. We prove a classical conjecture which asserts that the degree of any curve on a general complete intersection $X \subseteq \mathbb{P}^N$ cut out by polynomials…
Intersection bodies represent a remarkable class of geometric objects associated with sections of star bodies and invoking Radon transforms, generalized cosine transforms, and the relevant Fourier analysis. The main focus of this article is…
This paper examines the relationship between the knotting of an embedded surface in $\R^3$ and the knotting of its fold curves, formed by the singular set of projection to a plane. The first result shows that every surface, no matter how…
The problem on the minimal number (with respect to deformation) of intersection points of two closed curves on a surface is solved. Following the Nielsen approach, we define classes of intersection points and essential classes of…
We propose an algorithm based on Newton's method and subdivision for finding all zeros of a polynomial system in a bounded region of the plane. This algorithm can be used to find the intersections between a line and a surface, which has…
We extend our discrete uniformization theorems for planar, $m$-connected, Jordan domains [Journal f\"ur die reine und angewandte Mathematik 670 (2012), 65--92] to closed surfaces of non-positive genus.
We introduce $(k,l)$-regular maps, which generalize two previously studied classes of maps: affinely $k$-regular maps and totally skew embeddings. We exhibit some explicit examples and obtain bounds on the least dimension of a Euclidean…
Let $Y$ be the complement of a plane quartic curve $D$ defined over a number field. Our main theorem confirms the Lang-Vojta conjecture for $Y$ when $D$ is a generic smooth quartic curve, by showing that its integral points are confined in…
We study the "generic" degenerations of curves with two singular points when the points merge. First, the notion of generic degeneration is defined precisely. Then a method to classify the possible results of generic degenerations is…
We investigate so-called Laplace--Carleson embeddings for large exponents. In particular, we extend some results by Jacob, Partington, and Pott. We also discuss some related results for Sobolev- and Besov spaces, and mapping properties of…
A graph is called (generically) rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if, for any choice of sufficiently generic edge lengths, it can be embedded in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in a finite number of distinct ways, modulo rigid transformations. Here we deal with the…
In this short note, we closely follow the approach of Green and Tao to extend the best known bound for recurrence modulo 1 from squares to the largest possible class of polynomials. The paper concludes with a brief discussion of a…
