We prove an unexpected general relation between the Jacobian syzygies of a projective hypersurface $V\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ with only isolated singularities and the nature of its singularities. This allows to establish a new method for the…
Eastwood and Ezhov generalized the Cayley surface to the Cayley hypersurface in each dimension, proved some characteristic properties of the Cayley hypersurface and conjectured that a homogeneous hypersurface in affine space satisfying…
A hypersurface $M^n$ in a real space form ${\bf R}^{n+1}$, $S^{n+1}$, or $H^{n+1}$ is isoparametric if it has constant principal curvatures. This paper is a survey of the fundamental work of Cartan and M\"{u}nzner on the theory of…
A unimodular complex surface is a complex 2-manifold X endowed with a holomorphic volume form. A strictly pseudoconvex real hypersurface M in X inherits not only a CR-structure but a canonical coframing as well. In this article, this…
We classify totally geodesic and parallel hypersurfaces of four-dimensional non-reductive homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds.
It is shown that the homotopy classification of textures defined on physical domains with multiple ends at infinity reduces to that of textures on compact domains if the target space is simply connected. The result is applied to the O(3)…
It is shown that a formal mapping between two real-analytic hypersurfaces in complex space is convergent provided that neither hypersurface contains a nontrivial holomorphic variety. For higher codimensional generic submanifolds,…
We give a new short self-contained proof of the result of Opozda [B. Opozda, A classification of locally homogeneous connections on 2-dimensional manifolds, Differential Geom. Appl. 21 (2004), 173-198.] classifying the locally homogeneous…
In this article I show that every special Lagrangian cone in C^3 determines, and is determined by, a primitive harmonic surface in the 6-symmetric space SU_3/SO_2. For cones over tori, this allows us to use the classification theory of…
The homogeneous affine surfaces have been classified by Opozda. They may be grouped into 3 families, which are not disjoint. The connections which arise as the Levi-Civita connection of a surface with a metric of constant Gauss curvature…
In this note we find a bound for the so-called global linear Harbourne constants for smooth hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^{3}_{\mathbb{C}}$
We establish how a higher local field can be described as a locally convex vector space once an embedding of a local field into it has been fixed. This extends previous results that had been obtained in the two-dimensional case. In…
The existing classification of homogeneous quaternionic spaces is not complete. We study these spaces in the context of certain $N=2$ supergravity theories, where dimensional reduction induces a mapping between {\em special} real, K\"ahler…
We use the cylindrical homomorphism and a geometric construction introduced by J. Lewis to study the Lawson homology groups of certain hypersurfaces $X\subset \mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ of degree $d\leq n+1$. As an application, we compute the…
A remarkable and elementary fact that a locally compact set F of Euclidean space is a smooth manifold if and only if the lower and upper paratangent cones to F coincide at every point, is proved. The celebrated von Neumann's result (1929)…
We construct examples of inhomogeneous isoparametric real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic spaces.
A polygonal surface in the pseudo-hyperbolic space H^(2,n) is a complete maximal surface bounded by a lightlike polygon in the Einstein universe Ein^(1,n) with finitely many vertices. In this article, we give several characterizations of…
The Danielewski hypersurfaces are the hypersurfaces $X_{Q,n}$ in $\mathbb{C}^3$ defined by an equation of the form $x^ny=Q(x,z)$ where $n\geq1$ and $Q(x,z)$ is a polynomial such that $Q(0,z)$ is of degree at least two. They were studied by…
This paper is a survey of Cartan's examples of isoparametric hypersurfaces in spheres and their focal submanifolds that were described in his fundamental work on the subject, which appeared in four papers published during the period…
Var3: In our papers 2013--2018 we classified degenerations and Picard lattices of Kahlerian K3 surfaces with finite symplectic automorphism groups of high order. For remaining groups of small order: $D_6$, $C_4$, $(C_2)^2$, $C_3$, $C_2$ and…
