The growth pattern of an invasive cell-to-cell propagation (called the successive coronas) on the square grid is a tilted square. On the triangular and hexagonal grids, it is an hexagon. It is remarkable that, on the aperiodic structure of…
By the reduced component in a moduli space of stable quasimaps to n-dimensional projective space we mean the closure of the locus in which the domain curves are smooth. As in the moduli space of stable maps, we prove the reduced component…
We introduce a derived enhancement of the moduli space of sections defined by Chang-Li, and we compute its tangent complex. Special cases of this moduli space include stable maps and stable quasi-maps. As an application, we prove that…
The horocyclic evolutes of spacelike frontals in hyperbolic 2-space have already been defined. Using enveloid theorem, we now define the horocyclic parallel and involute of a spacelike frontal in hyperbolic 2-space as the normal envelopes…
Here we explore the geometry of the osculating spaces to projective varieties of arbitrary dimension. In particular, we classify varieties having very degenerate higher order osculating spaces and we determine mild conditions for the…
We consider strictly convex hypersurfaces with the boundary which meets a strictly convex cone perpendicularly. We prove that if these hypersurfaces expand inside this cone, driven by the power of the Gauss curvature, then the evolution…
It is shown that certain transformations on quiver-dimension vector pairs induce isomorphisms on the corresponding moduli spaces of quiver representations and map a stable dimension vector to a stable dimension vector. This result combined…
This note is about invariants of moduli spaces of curves. It includes their intersection theory and cohomology. Our main focus in on the distinguished piece containing the so called tautological classes. These are the most natural classes…
A shape of a combinatorial polytope is a convex embedding into Euclidean space. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a piecewise linear map between two shapes of the same polytope to be a compression (respectively a weak…
In this article we investigate a family of nonlinear evolutions of polygons in the plane called the $\beta$-polygon flow and obtain some results analogous to results for the smooth curve shortening flow: (1) any planar polygon shrinks to a…
The Weddle surface is classically known to be a birational (partially desingularized) model of the Kummer surface. In this note we go through its relations with moduli spaces of abelian varieties and of rank two vector bundles on a genus 2…
Let X be an irreducible smooth projective curve, of genus at least two, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from two. If X admits a nontrivial automorphism \sigma that fixes pointwise all the order two…
Given a smooth convex cone in the Euclidean $(n+1)$-space ($n\geq2$), we consider strictly mean convex hypersurfaces with boundary which are star-shaped with respect to the center of the cone and which meet the cone perpendicularly. If…
A study of rational maps of the real or complex projective plane of degree two or more, concentrating on those which map an elliptic curve onto itself, necessarily by an expanding map. We describe relatively simple examples with a rich…
The rays of tropical genus one curves are constrained in a way that defines a bounded polygon. When we relax this constraint, the resulting curves do not close, giving rise to a system of spiraling polygons. The piecewise linear…
We are interested in the local extrinsic geometry of smooth surfaces in 4-space, and classify jets of Monge forms by projective transformations according to $\mathcal{A}^3$-types of their central projections.
The moduli space of $G$-bundles on an elliptic curve with additional flag structure admits a Poisson structure. The bivector can be defined using double loop group, loop group and sheaf cohomology constructions. We investigate the links…
Rapid advance of experimental techniques provides an unprecedented in-depth view into complex developmental processes. Still, little is known on how the complexity of multicellular organisms evolved by elaborating developmental programs and…
Consider the map $S$ which sends a planar polygon $P$ to a new polygon $S(P)$ whose vertices are the intersection points of second nearest sides of $P$. This map is the inverse of the famous pentagram map. In this paper we investigate the…
In this paper, first we obtain some new and interesting results on projective modules and on the upper topology of an ordinal number. Then it is shown that the rank map of a locally of finite type projective module is continuous with…
