We classify del Pezzo surfaces with 1/3(1,1) points in 29 qG-deformation families grouped into six unprojection cascades (this overlaps with work of Fujita and Yasutake), we tabulate their biregular invariants, we give good model…
Let a set of nodes $\mathcal X$ in plain be $n$-independent, i.e., each node has a fundamental polynomial of degree $n.$ Suppose also that $|\mathcal X|= d(n,k-2)+2,$ where $d(n,k-2) = (n+1)+n+\cdots+(n-k+4)$ and $\ k\le n-1.$ In this paper…
We construct the first examples of regular del Pezzo surfaces for which the irregularity (i.e. the dimension of the first cohomology group of the structure sheaf) is nonzero. We also find a restriction on the integer pairs that are possible…
We show that there exists a $2$-dimensional family of smooth cubic threefolds admitting unirational parametrizations of coprime degrees. This together with Clemens--Griffiths' work solves the long standing open problem whether there exists…
We prove birational rigidity and calculate the group of birational automorphisms of a nodal Q-factorial double cover $X$ of a smooth three-dimensional quadric branched over a quartic section. We also prove that $X$ is Q-factorial provided…
We study the affine cone over a reducible nodal curve $X$ obtained by gluing three projective lines along three pairs of points to form a connected curve of arithmetic genus \(1\). We endow \(X\) with a line bundle \(L\) of multidegree…
Let $U\subset \mathbb P^N$ be a projective variety which is not a cone and whose hyperplane sections are smooth Enriques surfaces. We prove that the degree of a $U$ is at most 32 and the bound is sharp.
We study automorphism groups of smooth quintic threefolds. Especially, we describe all the maximal ones with explicit examples of target quintic threefolds. There are exactly $22$ such groups.
In order to study integral points of bounded log-anticanonical height on weak del Pezzo surfaces, we classify weak del Pezzo pairs. As a representative example, we consider a quartic del Pezzo surface of singularity type…
This paper gives an explicit construction of the Tate resolution of sheaves arising from the d-fold Veronese embedding of P^n. Our description involves the Bezoutian of n+1 homogenous forms of degree d in n+1 variables. We give applications…
Three new examples of 4-dimensional irreducible symplectic V-manifolds are constructed. Two of them are relative compactified Prymians of a family of genus-3 curves with involution, and the third one is obtained from a Prymian by Mukai's…
It is classically known that a real cubic surface in the real projective 3-space cannot have more than one solitary point (locally given by x^2+y^2+z^2=0) whereas it can have up to four nodes (x^2+y^2-z^2=0). We show that on any surface of…
Let a set of nodes $\mathcal X$ in the plane be $n$-independent, i.e., each node has a fundamental polynomial of degree $n.$ Assume that $\#\mathcal X=d(n,k-3)+3= (n+1)+n+\cdots+(n-k+5)+3$ and $4 \le k\le n-1.$ In this paper we prove that…
A polyhedron is a graph $G$ which is simple, planar and 3-connected. In this note, we classify the family of strongly involutive self-dual polyhedra. The latter is done by using a well-known result due to Tutte characterizing 3-connected…
We obtain a formula for the number of genus two curves with a fixed complex structure of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This is done by extending the…
We show how to construct infinite families of explicitly determined cubic number fields whose class group has a subgroup isomorphic to $(\mathbb{Z}/2)^8$ using degree $1$ del Pezzo surfaces. We illustrate the method and provide an example…
Motivated by our study (elsewhere) of linear syzygies of homogeneous ideals generated by quadrics and their restrictions to subvarieties of the ambient projective space, we investigate in this note possible zero-dimensional intersections of…
We construct minimal $m$-dimensional immersions in $\R^{m+1}$, equipped with a $C^{1, \alpha}$ metric, $\alpha\in [0,1)$, with a sequence of \emph{catenoidal necks} or \emph{floating disks} converging to an isolated, multiplicity $2$,…
We discuss non-geometric supersymmetric heterotic string models in D=4, in the framework of the free fermionic construction. We perform a systematic scan of models with four a priori left-right asymmetric Z_2 projections and shifts. We…
In this paper we compute the cohomology groups of the second Voronoi compactification of the moduli space of abelian fourfolds in all degrees with the exception of the middle degree 10. We also compute the cohomology groups of the perfect…
