The purposes of this article are threefold. First, to determine numerically when an arbitrary blowup of a smooth surface is smooth. We show the surface is smooth if and only if certain rational parameters involving log discrepancy and…
We classify $G$-solid rational surfaces over the field of complex numbers.
We prove the conjectural relation between the Stokes matrix for the quantum cohomology and an exceptional collection generating the derived category of coherent sheaves in the case of smooth cubic surfaces. The proof is based on a toric…
A method is described to sum multi-dimensional arithmetic functions subject to hyperbolic summation conditions, provided that asymptotic formulae in rectangular boxes are available. In combination with the circle method, the new method is a…
We study relations in the Grothendieck ring of varieties which connect the Hilbert scheme of points on a cubic hypersurface $Y$ with a certain moduli space of twisted cubic curves on $Y$. These relations are generalizations of the…
Let $k$ be a positive integer and let $X_k$ be the cubic hypersurface defined by the equation $x^3-(y_1^2+\cdots+y_{4k}^2)z=0$. In this paper, we give an asymptotic formula for the counting function of semi-integral points on $X_k$. We also…
We give a short determination of the distribution of the number of $\F_q$-rational points on a random trigonal curve over $\F_q$, in the limit as the genus of the curve goes to infinity. In particular, the expected number of points is…
Suppose an interval is put on a horizontal line with random roughness. With probability one it is supported at two points, one from the left, and another from the right from its center. We compute probability distribution of support points…
We study analytic surfaces in 3-dimensional Euclidean space containing two circular arcs through each point. The problem of finding such surfaces traces back to the works of Darboux from XIXth century. We reduce finding all such surfaces to…
We explicitly describe the possible pairs of triangle and square densities for r-regular finite simple graphs. We also prove that every r-regular unimodular random graph can be approximated by r-regular finite graphs with respect to these…
We study the geometry of surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{4}$ with corank $1$ singularities. For such surfaces the singularities are isolated and at each point we define the curvature parabola in the normal space. This curve codifies all the second…
We present a method for computing all the symmetries of a rational ruled surface defined by a rational parametrization which works directly in parametric rational form, i.e. without computing or making use of the implicit equation of the…
We define ramified and split models of elliptic surfaces and study the relation between the two models. We focus on certain rational elliptic surfaces from these points of views and as an application, we give an observation on bitantgent…
We give some methods for computing equations for certain Shimura curves, natural maps between them, and special points on them. We then illustrate these methods by working out several examples in varying degrees of detail. For instance, we…
The enumeration of points on (or off) the union of some linear or affine subspaces over a finite field is dealt with in combinatorics via the characteristic polynomial and in algebraic geometry via the zeta function. We discuss the basic…
We define a relative version of tiling cohomology for the purpose of comparing the topology of tiling spaces when one is a factor of the other. We illustrate this with examples, and outline a method for computing the cohomology of tiling…
We consider diagonal cubic surfaces defined by an equation of the form ax^3+by^3+cz^3+dt^3 = 0. Numerically, one can find all rational points of height < B for B in the range of up to 100 000, thanks to a program due to D. J. Bernstein. On…
We prove that the Cox ring of a smooth rational surface with big anticanonical class is finitely generated. We classify surfaces of this type that are blow-ups of the plane at distinct points lying on a (possibly reducible) cubic.
Let F_q be the finite field of q elements. Let H be a multiplicative subgroup of F_q^*. For a positive integer k and element b\in F_q, we give a sharp estimate for the number of k-element subsets of H which sum to b.
