A form in a polynomial ring over a field is said to be homaloidal if its polar map is a Cremona map, i.e., if the rational map defined by the partial derivatives of the form has an inverse rational map. The object of this work is the search…

Cremona maps defined by monomials of degree 2 are thoroughly analyzed and classified via integer arithmetic and graph combinatorics. In particular, the structure of the inverse map to such a monomial Cremona map is made very explicit as is…

One studies Cremona monomial maps by combinatorial means. Among the results is a simple integer matrix theoretic proof that the inverse of a Cremona monomial map is also defined by monomials of fixed degree, and moreover, the set of…

This article studies the sequence of iterative degrees of a birational map of the plane. This sequence is known either to be bounded or to have a linear, quadratic or exponential growth. The classification elements of infinite order with a…

A rational map whose source and image are projectively embedded varieties has an {\em Arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay graph} if the Rees algebra of one (hence any) of its base ideals is a Cohen-Macaulay ring. If the map is birational onto the…

We recall some properties, unfortunately not all, of the Cremona group. We first begin by presenting a nice proof of the amalgamated product structure of the well-known subgroup of the Cremona group made up of the polynomial automorphisms…

One studies plane Cremona maps by focusing on the ideal theoretic and homological properties of its homogeneous base ideal ("indeterminacy locus"). The {\em leitmotiv} driving a good deal of the work is the relation between the base ideal…

Using a filtration on the Grothendieck ring of triangulated categories, we define the categorical dimension of a birational map between smooth projective varieties. We show that birational automorphisms of bounded categorical dimension form…

One defines two ways of constructing rational maps derived from other rational maps, in a characteristic-free context. The first introduces the Newton complementary dual of a rational map. One main result is that this dual preserves…

In this paper we consider the birational classification of pairs (S,L), with S a rational surfaces and L a linear system on S. We give a classification theorem for such pairs and we determine, for each irreducible plane curve B, its…

We construct invariants of birational maps with values in the Kontsevich--Tschinkel group and in the truncated Grothendieck groups of varieties. These invariants are morphisms of groupoids and are well-suited to investigating the structure…

We consider determinantal ideals, where the generating minors are encoded in a hypergraph. We study when the generating minors form a Gr\"obner basis. In this case, the ideal is radical, and we can describe algebraic and numerical…

We classify all monomial planar Cremona maps by multidegree using recent methods developed by Aluffi. Following the main result, we prove several more properties of the set of these maps, and also extend the results to the more general…

This work is about the structure of the symbolic Rees algebra of the base ideal of a Cremona map. We give sufficient conditions under which this algebra has the "expected form" in some sense. The main theorem in this regard seemingly covers…

Laminations are a combinatorial and topological way to study Julia sets. Laminations give information about the structure of parameter space of degree $d$ polynomials with connected Julia sets. We first study fixed point portraits in…

This short note deals with the conjugacy classes of monomial birational maps in the $n$-dimensional Cremona group, $n\geq 2$.

Two birational subvarieties of P^n are called Cremona equivalent if there is a Cremona modification of P^n mapping one to the other. If the codimension of the varieties is at least 2 then they are always Cremona Equivalent. For divisors the…

A result of I.V.Dolgachev states that the complex homaloidal polynomials in three variables, i.e. the complex homogeneous polynomials whose polar map is birational, are of degree at most three. In this note we describe homaloidal…

We study the correspondence between unicritical laminations and maximally critical laminations with rotational and identity return polygons. Laminations are a combinatorial and topological way to study Julia sets. Laminations give…

We produce a family of complexes called trimming complexes and explore applications. We study how trimming complexes can be used to deduce the Betti table for the minimal free resolution of the ideal generated by subsets of a generating set…
