We obtain an explicit formula for the number of rational cuspidal curves of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This enumerative problem is expressed as an Euler…

We show that if the complement of a Donaldson hypersurface in a closed, integral symplectic manifold has the homology of a subcritical Stein manifold, then the hypersurface is of degree one. In particular, this demonstrates a conjecture by…

A theorem due to D. Bernstein states that Euler characteristic of a hypersurface defined by a polynomial f in (C\{0})^n is equal (upto a sign) to n! times volume of the Newton polyhedron of f. This result is related to algebaric torus…

A map between manifolds induces stratifications of both the source and the target according to the occurring multisingularities. In this paper, we study universal expressions-called higher Thom polynomials-that describe the…

For the moduli spaces of Abelian differentials, the Euler characteristic is one of the most basic intrinsic topological invariants. We give a formula for the Euler characteristic that relies on intersection theory on the smooth…

In this paper, we establish the sharp bounds of certain Toeplitz determinants formed over the coefficients of mappings from a class defined on the unit ball of complex Banach space and on the unit polydisc in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Derived bounds…

We prove a precise version of a general conjecture on the polar degree stated by June Huh. We confirm Huh's conjectural list of all projective hypersurfaces with isolated singularities and polar degree equal to 2.

We study the degree growth of iterates of meromorphic selfmaps of compact Kahler surfaces. Using cohomology classes on the Riemann-Zariski space we show that the degrees grow similarly to those of mappings that are algebraically stable on…

In a previous paper, we announced a formula to compute Gromov-Witten and Welschinger invariants of some toric varieties, in terms of combinatorial objects called floor diagrams. We give here detailed proofs in the tropical geometry…

We prove that the modular component $\mathcal M(r)$, constructed in the Main Theorem of a former paper of us (published in Adv. Math on 2024), paramatrizing (isomorphism classes of) Ulrich vector bundles of rank $r$ and given Chern classes,…

Let $(f, g)$ be a pair of complex analytic functions on a singular analytic space $X$. We give ``the correct'' definition of the relative polar curve of $(f, g)$, and we give a very formal generalization of L\^e's attaching result, which…

The Severi variety $V_{d,n}$ of plane curves of a given degree $d$ and exactly $n$ nodes admits a map to the Hilbert scheme $\mathbb{P}^{2[n]}$ of zero-dimensional subschemes of $\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $n$. This map assigns to every curve…

A mapping class group of an oriented manifold is a quotient of its diffeomorphism group by the isotopies. We compute a mapping class group of a hypekahler manifold $M$, showing that it is commensurable to an arithmetic subgroup in SO(3,…

We prove the existence of various families of irreducible homaloidal hypersurfaces in projective space $\mathbb P^ r$, for all $r\geq 3$. Some of these are families of homaloidal hypersurfaces whose degrees are arbitrarily large as compared…

This paper addresses a very classical topic that goes back at least to Pl\"ucker: how to understand a plane curve singularity using its polar curves. Here, we explicitly construct the singular points of a plane curve singularity directly…

Adapting a result of Bazhenov, Kalimullin, and Yamaleev, we show that if a Turing degree $\textbf{d}$ is the degree of categoricity of a computable structure $\mathcal{M}$ and is not the strong degree of categoricity of any computable…

We define twisted Alexander polynomials of a complex hypersurface with arbitrary singularities. These generalize the classical Alexander polynomials of high dimensional hypersurfaces and the twisted Alexander polynomial of plane curves. We…

A compact set has computable type if any homeomorphic copy of the set which is semicomputable is actually computable. Miller proved that finite-dimensional spheres have computable type, Iljazovi\'c and other authors established the property…

We study the normal map for plane projective curves, i.e., the map associating to every regular point of the curve the normal line at the point in the dual space. We first observe that the normal map is always birational and then we use…

Let $\text{M}_C( 2, \mathcal{O}_C) \cong \mathbb{P}^3$ denote the coarse moduli space of semistable vector bundles of rank $2$ with trivial determinant over a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $2$ over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $\beta_C$ denote…
