We recall the definition of classical polar varieties, as well as those of affine and projective reciprocal polar varieties. The latter are defined with respect to a non-degenerate quadric, which gives us a notion of orthogonality. In…

In a first part, we generalize a theorem for an holomorphic $\times $ anti-holomorphic integrand, in the case of 2 dimensional Fourier transform. In the second part, we derive p-uple conformal integrals the integrand of which are linear…

Let $\nu_d : \mathbb{P}^n \longrightarrow \mathbb{P}^N$ be the Veronese mapping of degree $d$ where $N = {n+d \choose n} -1$. By an elementary approach it is shown that $\nu_d$ is an isomorphism of $\mathbb{P}^n$ onto the projective variety…

We show how the categorial approach to inverse monoids can be described as a certain endofunctor (which we call the partialization functor) of some category. In this paper we show that this functor can be used to obtain several recently…

We look at algebraic embeddings of the Cremona group in $n$ variables $Cr_n(C)$ to the group of birational transformations $Bir(M)$ of an algebraic variety $M$. First we study geometrical properties of an example of an embedding of…

The aim of this paper is to develop a theory of finite transformation monoids and in particular to study primitive transformation monoids. We introduce the notion of orbitals and orbital digraphs for transformation monoids and prove a…

The two dimensional Jacobian Conjecture says that a morphism $f:\mathbb{C}[x,y]\to \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ having an invertible Jacobian, is invertible. We show that a morphism $f$ having an invertible Jacobian is invertible, in each of the…

Fix two integers $1\leq d<e$. We study the birational geometry of a parameter space for pairs of homogeneous polynomials of degrees $d$ and $e$ in two variables (in which the higher degree polynomial is well defined only up to a multiple of…

Recently the classification of all possible faithful transitive permutation representations of the group of symmetries of a regular toroidal map was accomplished. In this paper we complete this investigation on a surface of genus 1…

We focus on various dynamical invariants associated to toric correspondences, using algebraic geometry or arithmetic. We find a formula for the dynamical degrees, relate the exponential growth of the degree sequences with a strict…

A Cremona transformation is a birational self-map of the projective space $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $. Cremona transformations of $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $ form a group and this group has a rational action on subvarieties of $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $ and hence on…

Let $f(\bfz,\bar\bfz)$ be a mixed strongly polar homogeneous polynomial of $3$ variables $\bfz=(z_1,z_2, z_3)$. It defines a Riemann surface $V:=\{[\bfz]\in \BP^{2}\,|\,f(\bfz,\bar\bfz)=0 \}$ in the complex projective space $\BP^{2}$. We…

We obtain formulae for the minimum transformation degrees of the most well-studied families of finite diagram monoids, including the partition, Brauer, Temperley--Lieb and Motzkin monoids. For example, the partition monoid $P_n$ has degree…

We define the monomial invariants of a projective variety $Z$; they are invariants coming from the generic initial ideal of $Z$. Using this notion, we generalize a result of Cook: If $Z$ is an integral variety of codimension two, satisfying…

It is well-known that the category of Kleisli algebras for a monoidal monad carries a canonical monoidal structure. We define the notion of a commutative graded monad and present a strictly two-categorical proof that Kleisli algebras for…

We prove that any group of cardinality at most the one of $\mathbb{C}$ is a quotient of any Cremona group of rank at least $4$. This provides a definitive answer to the question of what the quotients of Cremona groups can be. As a…

Let X be a smooth complex projective variety, and let Y in X be a smooth very ample hypersurface such that -K_Y is nef. Using the technique of relative Gromov-Witten invariants, we give a new short and geometric proof of (a version of) the…

In the previous paper [E-print alg-geom/9507004] we classified the rational cuspidal plane curves C with a cusp of multiplicity deg C - 2. In particular, we showed that any such curve can be transformed into a line by Cremona…

The space of codimension one holomorphic foliations of degree 1 in a projective space has an irreducible component whose general element is a logarithmic differential 1-form with simple poles in three hyperplanes. We compute its projective…

Given a rational monomial map, we consider the question of finding a toric variety on which it is algebraically stable. We give conditions for when such variety does or does not exist. We also obtain several precise estimates of the degree…
