We prove that the Leray spectral sequence in rational cohomology for the quotient map $U_{n,d} \to U_{n,d}/G$ where $U_{n,d}$ is the affine variety of equations for smooth hypersurfaces of degree $d$ in $\PP^n(\C)$ and $G$ is the general…

In this paper, we prove three related results; (1) Extension of our result in [10] to all generic hypersurfaces. More precisely, the normal sheaf of a generic rational map $c_0$ to a generic hypersurface $X_0$ of $\mathbf P^n, n\geq 4$ has…

Over fields of characteristic zero, we show that for $n=1,d\geq4$ or $n=2,d\geq5$ or $n\geq3, d\geq 2n$, the generic $m$-marked degree-$d$ hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ admits the $m$ marked points as all the rational points. Over…

Let $V$ be a projective subvariety of $\mathbb P^n(\mathbb C)$. A family of hypersurfaces $\{Q_i\}_{i=1}^q$ in $\mathbb P^n(\mathbb C)$ is said to be in $N$-subgeneral position with respect to $V$ if for any $1\le i_1<\cdots <i_{N+1}$, $…

The space of degree d smooth projective hypersurfaces of CP n admits a scanning map to a certain space of sections. We compute a rational homotopy model of the action by conjugation of the group U (n + 1) on this space of sections, from…

We study the complement problem in projective spaces $\mathbb{P}^n$ over any algebraically closed field: If $H, H' \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n$ are irreducible hypersurfaces of degree $d$ such that the complements $\mathbb{P}^n \setminus H$,…

It is well known since Noether that the gonality of a smooth plane curve of degree d>3 is d-1. Given a k-dimensional complex projective variety X, the most natural extension of gonality is probably the degree of irrationality, that is the…

We describe degenerations of projective plane curves to curves containing a fixed line $l$ as a component, and show that $H^1({\overline V}_{n,d,m}, {\Cal O} (r))=0, r \in{\Bbb Z}$, where $V_{n,d,m}\subset {\Bbb P}^N (N = n(n+3)/2)$ is the…

We study the categorical Torelli theorem for smooth (weighted) hypersurfaces in (weighted) projective spaces via the Hochschild--Serre algebra of its Kuznetsov component. In the first part of the paper, we show that a natural graded…

In this paper, we establish a uniqueness theorem for algebraically nondegenerate meromorphic maps of C^m into C P^n and slowly moving hypersurfaces Q_j in C P^n, j=1,...,q in (weakly) general position, where q depends effectively on n and…

In this paper we study the Hessian map $h_{d,r}$ which associates to any hypersurface of degree $d$ in ${\mathbb P}^r$ its Hessian hypersurface. We study general properties of this map and we prove that: $h_{d,1}$ is birational onto its…

In this paper, we want to discuss the topology of the non-singular hypersurface $Y^{n}$ with complex dimension $n$ in a projective toric manifold $X^{n+1}$. When $n$ is odd, our main results are a decomposition of $Y^{n}\cong Y'\sharp \…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g\geq 4$ over the complex numbers and ${\cal SU}^s_C(r,d)$ be the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank $r$ with a fixed determinant of degree $d$. In the projectivized cotangent space…

The main purpose of this paper is to show that the mixed Hodge polynomial of the ``space of equations'' for smooth complete intersections of given multidegree in $\mathbb{C} P^n$ is divisible by the mixed Hodge polynomial of the group…

Brill-Noether theory studies the existence and deformations of curves in projective spaces; its basic object of study is $\mathcal{W}^r_{d,g}$, the moduli space of smooth genus $g$ curves with a choice of degree $d$ line bundle having at…

In this article we study, given a pair of integers (d,g), the problem of existence of a smooth, irreducible, non-degenerate curve in the projective n-domensional space of degree d and genus g (the Halphen-Castelnuovo Problem). We define two…

Let $(S,L)$ be a polarized K3 surface with $\mathrm{Pic}(S) = \mathbb{Z}[L]$ and $L\cdot L=2g-2$, let $C$ be a nonsingular curve of genus $g-1$ and let $f:C\to S$ be such that $f(C) \in \vert L \vert$. We prove that the Gaussian map…

Asgarli, Ghioca, and Reichstein proved that if $K$ is a field with $|K|>2$, then for any positive integers $d$ and $n$, and separable field extension $L/K$ with degree $m=\binom{n+d}{d}$, there exists a point $P\in \mathbb{P}^n(L)$ which…

We consider surjective endomorphisms f of degree > 1 on the projective n-space with n = 3, and f^{-1}-stable hypersurfaces V. We show that V is a hyperplane (i.e., deg(V) = 1) but with four possible exceptions; it is conjectured that deg(V)…

The linear orbit of a degree d hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ is its orbit under the natural action of PGL(n+1), in the projective space of dimension $N =\binom{n+d}{d} - 1$ parameterizing such hypersurfaces. This action restricted to a…
