One distinguishing feature of rational curves is that they have algebraic parameterizations. Arc spaces are a way of describing approximations to parameterizations of all curves in some fixed space. Playing on these descriptions, this paper…

To any metric spaces there is an associated metric profile. The rectifiability of the metric profile gives a good notion of curvature of a sub-Riemannian space. We shall say that a curvature class is the rectifiability class of the metric…

Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs) provide a high fidelity, continuous scene representation that can realistically represent complex behaviour of light. Despite works like Ref-NeRF improving geometry through physics-inspired models, the ability…

A space curve is determined by conformal arc-length, conformal curvature, and conformal torsion, up to M\"obius transformations. We use the spaces of osculating circles and spheres to give a conformally defined moving frame of a curve in…

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…

Rotation minimizing vector fields and frames were introduced by Bishop as an alternative to the Frenet frame. They are used in CAGD because they can be defined even the curvature vanishes. Nevertheless, many other geometric properties have…

Let X be a smooth projective curve over a field of characteristic p>0 and G a finite group of automorphism of X. Let n(X,G) be the characteristic of the versal equivariant deformation ring R(X,G) of (X,G). When the ramification is weak…

We consider curves $\gamma : [0, 1]\to\mathbb{R}^3$ endowed with an adapted orthonormal frame $r : [0, 1]\to SO(3)$. We are interested in the cases where the frame is constrained, in the sense that one of its `curvatures' (i.e.,…

In this work we are interested in the characterization of curves that belong to a given surface. To the best of our knowledge, there is no known general solution to this problem. Indeed, a solution is only available for a few examples:…

In this work we present explicit examples of maximal and minimal curves over finite fields in odd characteristic. The curves are of Artin-Schreier type and the construction is closely related to quadratic forms from $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ to…
