We give a short, elementary and explicit proof of the existence of Hilbert schemes of points on affine schemes. As a direct consequence we obtain the existence of the Hilbert scheme of points on any projective scheme, not necessarily of…

We study completely the Hilbert scheme and punctual Hilbert scheme of a nodal curve, and the relative Hilbert scheme of a family of curves acquiring a node. The results are then extended, less completely, to flag Hilbert schemes,…

We prove that the Hilbert scheme of points on a normal quasi-projective surface with at worst rational double point singularities is irreducible.

The characterization of bipartite distance-regularized graphs, where some vertices have eccentricity less than four, in terms of the incidence structures of which they are incidence graphs, is known. In this paper we prove that there is a…

Let S be a smooth projective surface, and consider the following two subvarieties of the Hilbert scheme parameterizing closed subschemes of S of length n: A = {subschemes with support in a fixed point of S} B = {subschemes with support in…

We classify maximal digraphs whose Hermitian spectral radius is at most $2$.

This paper proves that the facet-ridge incidence graph of the order complex of any finite geometric lattice of rank $r$ has diameter at most ${r \choose 2}$. A key ingredient is the well-known fact that every ordering of the atoms of any…

The T-graph of a multigraded Hilbert scheme records the zero and one-dimensional orbits of the T = (K^*)^n action on the Hilbert scheme induced from the T-action on A^n. It has vertices the T-fixed points, and edges the one-dimensional…

The Hilbert scheme $S^{[n]}$ of points on an algebraic surface $S$ is a simple example of a moduli space and also a nice (crepant) resolution of singularities of the symmetric power $S^{(n)}$. For many phenomena expected for moduli spaces…

We investigate the Hilbert scheme of points on curves with n-fold singularities, that is curves that look locally around their singular points as the axis in an affine space. We describe the structure and number of its irreducible…

We consider two incidence problems for integral curves of vector fields. The first is an analogue of the Euclidean joints problem, in which lines are replaced by integral curves of smooth vector fields taken from some finite-dimensional…

Consider a finite scheme of length l contained in a smooth quadric surface over the complex numbers. We determine the number of linearly independent curves passing through the scheme, of degree at least l - 1.

We describe the natural geometry of Hilbert schemes of curves in ${\mathbb P}^3$ and, in some cases, in ${\mathbb P}^n$ , $n\geq 4$.

Two approaches for determining Hilbert functions of fat point subschemes of $\mathbb P^2$ are demonstrated. A complete determination of the Hilbert functions which occur for 9 double points is given using the first approach, extending…

Properties of the recently reported homogeneous Hilbert curves are deduced and reported. The nature of the affine transformations involved in the construction of the Hilbert curves is explored. The analytical representation of proper and…

Let $D$ be a smooth divisor on a non singular surface $S$. We compute Betti numbers of the relative Hilbert scheme of points of $S$ relative to $D$. In the case of $\PP^2$ and a line in it, we give an explicit set of generators and…

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…

Given a smooth curve on a smooth surface, the Hilbert scheme of the surface is stratified according to the length of the intersection with the curve. The strata are highly singular. We show that this stratification admits a natural…

An incidence of a graph G is a pair (v, e) where v is a vertex of G and e is an edge of G incident with v. Two incidences (v, e) and (w, f) of G are adjacent whenever (i) v = w, or (ii) e = f , or (iii) vw = e or f. An incidence p-colouring…

In this paper we show that for each $n$, there exists a simple graph whose reliability polynomial has at least $n$ inflection points.
