The geometry of closed surfaces equipped with a Euclidean metric with finitely many conical points of arbitrary angle is studied. The main result is that the set of closed geodesics is dense in the space of geodesics.

D. Jaffe and D. Ruberman proved in 1997 that a sextic hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^3$ has at most 65 nodes (the bound is sharp by Barth's construction). Almost at the same time, J. Wahl proposed a much shorter proof of the same result, by…

We consider Shanks' simplest cubic fields $K$ for which the index $[\mathcal{O}_K:\mathbb{Z}[\rho]]$ of a root $\rho$ of the defining parametric polynomial is $3$. For them, we study the additive indecomposables of $K$ and provide a…

We show that a hyperbolic $3$-manifold can be the cyclic branched cover of at most fifteen knots in $\mathbf{S}^3$. This is a consequence of a general result about finite groups of orientation preserving diffeomorphisms acting on…

Let $E$ be a totally real number field of degree $d$ and let $m \geqslant 3$ be an integer. We show that if $md \leqslant 21$ then there exists an $(m-2)$-dimensional family of complex projective $K3$ surfaces with real multiplication by…

We prove that the equisingular deformation type of a simple real plane sextic curve with smooth real part is determined by its real homological type, \ie, the polarization, exceptional divisors, and real structure recorded in the homology…

For real irreducible algebraic curves of the seventh degree, there are 22 types of singular points of multiplicity six, 174 types of singular points of multiplicity five, and at least 182 types of singular points of multiplicity four. For…

For a hyperbolic surface S of finite type we consider the set A(S) of angles between closed geodesics on S. Our main result is that there are only finitely many rational multiples of \pi in A(S).

We prove that a smooth projective surface of degree $d$ in $\mathbb P^3$ contains at most $d^2(d^2-3d+3)$ lines. We characterize the surfaces containing exactly $d^2(d^2-3d+3)$ lines: these occur only in prime characterize $p$ and, up to…

We develop an algorithm detecting real representatives in equisingular strata of projective models of $K3$-surfaces. We apply this algorithm to spatial quartics and find two new examples of real strata without real representatives. As a…

In the complement of a hyperbolic Montesinos knot with 4 rational tangles, we investigate the number of closed, connected, essential, orientable surfaces of a fixed genus $g$, up to isotopy. We show that there are exactly 12 genus 2…

We study the number and the length of systoles on complete finite area orientable hyperbolic surfaces. In particular, we prove upper bounds on the number of systoles that a surface can have (the so-called kissing number for hyperbolic…

Let $X$ be a very general degree $d\geq 5$ hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^3$. We compute the ample cone of the Hilbert scheme $X^{[n]}$ of $n$ points on $X$ for various small values of $n$ (the answer is already known for large $n$). We obtain…

We study non-symplectic involutions on irreducible symplectic manifolds of K3^{[2]}-type with 19 parameters, which is the second largest possible. We classify the conjugacy classes of cohomological representations into four different types…

We investigate the universal Severi variety of rational curves on K3 surfaces, which parametrises irreducible rational curves in a fixed class on varying K3 surfaces of fixed genus. We investigate the conjecuted irreducibility of this space…

In this paper we have proved several approximation theorems for the family of minimal surfaces in R^3 that imply, among other things, that complete minimal surfaces are dense in the space of all minimal surfaces endowed with the topology of…

We show that a knot in $S^3$ with an infinite number of distinct incompressible Seifert surfaces contains a closed incompressible surface in its complement.

In this note we show that the maximum number of vertices in any polyhedron $P=\{x\in \mathbb{R}^d : Ax\leq b\}$ with $0,1$-constraint matrix $A$ and a real vector $b$ is at most $d!$.

Given any irreducible Coxeter group $C$ of hyperbolic type with non-linear diagram and rank at least $4$, whose maximal parabolic subgroups are finite, we construct an infinite family of locally spherical regular hypertopes of hyperbolic…

First steps towards a classification of irreducible symplectic 4-folds whose integral 2-cohomology with 4-tuple cup product is isomorphic to that of Hilb^2(K3). We prove that any such 4-fold deforms to an irreducible symplectic 4-fold of…
