Let $\mathcal A\subset\mathbb P^{k-1}$ be a rank $k$ arrangement of $n$ hyperplanes, with the property that any $k$ of the defining linear forms are linearly independent (i.e., $\mathcal A$ is called $k-$generic). We show that for any…
Consider l lines in P^2 such that no three lines meet in a point. Let X(l) denote all points of intersections of these l lines. We describe all pairs (d,l) such that generic degree d curve in P^2 contains a X(l).
Star configurations are certain unions of linear subspaces of projective space. They have appeared in several different contexts: the study of extremal Hilbert functions for fat point schemes in the plane; the study of secant varieties of…
Bocci, Carlini, and Kileel have shown that the square-free Hadamard product of a finite set of points $Z$ that all lie on a line $\ell$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ produces a star configuration of codimension $n$. In this paper we introduce a…
Closed form expressions are given for computing the parameters and vectors that identify and define the $n-1$ dimensional conic section that results from the intersection of a hyperplane with an $n$-dimensional conic section: cone,…
This paper begins by extending the notion of a combinatorial configuration of points and lines to a combinatorial configuration of points and planes that we refer to as configurations of order $2$. We then proceed to investigate a further…
Given a collection of $l$ general lines $\ell_1,\ldots,\ell_{l}$ in $\pr^2$, the star configuration $\XX(l)$ is the set of points constructed from all pairwise intersections of these lines. For each non-negative integer $d$, we compute the…
In this article we prove in main Theorem A that any infinity type real hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{H}_n^m$ (Definition 2.11) with the associated normal system $\mathcal{N}$ (Definitions [2.2,2.4] can be represented isomorphically…
We prove that every pointed closed convex set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is the intersection of all the rational closed halfspaces that contain it. This generalizes a previous result by the authors for compact convex sets.
A point P on a smooth hypersurface X of degree d in an N-dimensional projective space is called a star point if and only if the intersection of X with the embedded tangent space T_P(X) is a cone with vertex P. This notion is a…
We describe properties of Hadamard products of algebraic varieties. We show any Hadamard power of a line is a linear space, and we construct star configurations from products of collinear points. Tropical geometry is used to find the degree…
We study the dimensions of Hadamard products of $k\ge 3$ varieties if we allow to modify $k-1$ of them by the action of a general projective linear transformation. We also prove that the join of a variety not contained in a coordinate…
We use stable maps, and their stable lifts to the Semple bundle variety of second-order curvilinear data, to calculate certain characteristic numbers for rational plane curves. These characteristic numbers involve first-order (tangency) and…
For every $d\geq 2$, we construct a subset $D\subseteq \{1,2,\dots,n\}^d$ of size $n-o(n)$ such that every affine hyperplane of $\mathbb{R}^d$ intersects $D$ in at most $d$ points, and every hypersphere of $\mathbb{R}^n$ intersects $D$ in…
In this note, we prove the existence of one particular class of starshaped compact hypersurfaces, by deriving global curvature estimates for such hypersurfaces; this generalizes the main result in [Hypersurfaces of prescribed mixed…
We derive global curvature estimates for closed, strictly star-shaped $(n-2)$-convex hypersurfaces in warped product manifolds, which satisfy the prescribed $(n-2)$-curvature equation with a general right-hand side. The proof can be readily…
Given a locally convex vector space with a topology induced by Hilbert seminorms and a continuous bilinear form on it we construct a topology on its symmetric algebra such that the usual star product of exponential type becomes continuous.…
In [7] the authors have introduced a new construction using the Hadamard product to present star configurations of codimension $ c $ of $\mathbb{P}^n$ and which they called Hadamard star configurations. In this paper, we introduce a more…
For each pair $(Q_i,Q_j)$ of reference points and each real number $r$ there is a unique hyperplane $h \perp Q_iQ_j$ such that $d(P,Q_i)^2 - d(P,Q_j)^2 = r$ for points $P$ in $h$. Take $n$ reference points in $d$-space and for each pair…
In this paper we consider a generic degree $d$ form $ F $ in $n+1$ variables. In particular, we investigate the existence of star configurations apolar to $F$, that is the existence of apolar sets of points obtained by the $ n $-wise…
