We answer an open question proposed by P\'{o}lik and Terlaky in 2007 that: {\it how we can decide whether two quadratic surfaces intersect without actually computing the intersections?}

We study the relative Hilbert scheme of a family of nodal (or smooth) curves via its (birational) cycle map, going to the relative symmetric product. We show the cycle map is the blowing up of the discriminant locus, which consists of…

We discover that tautological intersection numbers on $\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{g, n}$, the moduli space of stable genus $g$ curves with $n$ marked points, are evaluations of Ehrhart polynomials of partial polytopal complexes. In order to prove…

Let $S_{g,p}$ denote the genus $g$ orientable surface with $p \ge 0$ punctures, and let $\omega(g,p)= 3g+p-4$. We prove the existence of infinitely long geodesic rays $\left\{v_{0},v_{1}, v_{2}, ...\right\}$ in the curve graph satisfying…

We solve a technical problem related to adeles on an algebraic surface. Given a finite set of natural numbers up to two, one associates an adelic group. We show that this operation commutes with taking intersections if the surface is…

We compute intersection matrices for modular curves of the form $X_0(p^r)$ with $r \in \{3,4\}$ and as an application, we compute an asymptotic expression for the Arakelov self-intersection number of the relative dualizing sheaf of…

Let K be a field of positive characteristic. When V is a linear variety in K^n and G is a finitely generated subgroup of K^*, we show how to compute the intersection of V and G^n effectively using heights. We calculate all the estimates…

We solve the conjecture posed by Fill, Scheinerman and Singer-Cohen and show the equivalence of the sharp threshold functions of the random intersection graph G(n,m,p) with $m >= n^3$ and a graph in which each edge appears independently.…

In this paper, we provide a general framework for counting geometric structures in pseudo-random graphs. As applications, our theorems recover and improve several results on the finite field analog of questions originally raised in the…

We count the number of conics through two general points in complete intersections when this number is finite and give an application in terms of quasi-lines.

We study arithmetic intersections on twisted (quaternionic) Hilbert modular surfaces and Shimura curves over a real quadratic field. Our first main result is the determination of the degree of the top arithmetic Todd class of an arithmetic…

We present a concise self-contained inversive geometry solution of the three-circle problem of Steiner of constructing a circle that intersects each of the three given circles at one of the three given angles.

A simple en,ex rule to mark the intersection points of 2D input polygon contours separating the polygon interior from its exterior in the vicinity of the intersections is presented. Its form is close to the original Greiner & Hormann…

Given the ensemble of random Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the three-dimensional torus (`3d arithmetic random waves'), we investigate the $1$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the nodal intersection curve against a compact regular toral…

Building on recent advances in studying the co-homological properties of Feynman integrals, we apply intersection theory to the computation of Fourier integrals. We discuss applications pertinent to gravitational bremsstrahlung and deep…

We will present a new method, which enables us to find threshold functions for many properties in random intersection graphs. This method will be used to establish sharp threshold functions in random intersection graphs for k-connectivity,…

We approximate intersection numbers $\big\langle \psi_1^{d_1}\cdots \psi_n^{d_n}\big\rangle_{g,n}$ on Deligne-Mumford's moduli space $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ of genus $g$ stable complex curves with $n$ marked points by certain…

In this paper we survey several intersection and non-intersection phenomena appearing in the realm of symplectic topology. We discuss their implications and finally outline some new relations of the subject to algebraic geometry.

On a smooth variety, Serre's intersection formula computes intersection multiplicities via an alternating sum of the lengths of Tor groups. When the variety is singular, the corresponding sum can be a divergent series. But there are…
