We obtain a coarse relationship between geometric intersection numbers of curves and the sum of their subsurface projection distances with explicit quasi-constants. By using this relationship, we give applications in the studies of the…
We propose an optimization proxy in terms of iterative implicit gradient methods for solving constrained optimization problems with nonconvex loss functions. This framework can be applied to a broad range of machine learning settings,…
T-curves are piecewise linear curves which have been used with success since the beginning of the 1990's to construct new real algebraic curves with prescribed topology mainly on the real projective plane. In fact T-curves can be used on…
This study defines finite-type invariants for curves on surfaces and reveals the construction of these finite-type invariants for stable homeomorphism classes of curves on compact oriented surfaces without boundaries. These invariants are a…
We study the virtual intersection theory of Hyperquot schemes parameterizing sequences of quotient sheaves of a vector bundle on a smooth projective curve. Our results generalize the Vafa--Intriligator formula for Quot schemes and provide a…
It is well established that a general pair of twisted cubic curves in complex projective space has ten common secant lines. As an initial investigation, we show that the monodromy group of the ten common secant lines over the complex…
In classical curve theory, the geometry of a curve in three dimensions is essentially characterized by their invariants, curvature and torsion. When they are given, the problem of finding a corresponding curve is known as 'solving natural…
Surfaces and curves play an important role in geometric design. In recent years, problem of finding a surface passing through a given curve has attracted much interest. In the present paper, we propose a new method to construct a surface…
We give optimal lower bounds for the number of sextactic points on a simple closed curve in the real projective plane. Sextactic points are after inflection points the simplest projectively invariant singularities on such curves. Our method…
We investigate not only the associated curves of regular plane curves, but also those of Legendre curves. As associated curves, we consider Bertrand regular plane curves and Bertrand Legendre curves. These curves contain parallel, evolute…
If a one-variable function is sufficiently smooth, then the limit position of secant lines its graph is a tangent line. By analogy, one would expect that the limit position of secant planes of a two-variable smooth function is a plane…
We give an explicit formula for wild conductor exponents of plane curves over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ in terms of standard invariants of explicit extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, generalising a formula for hyperelliptic curves. To do so, we prove a…
We study projective curves and hypersurfaces defined over a finite field that are tangent to every member of a class of low-degree varieties. Extending 2-dimensional work of Asgarli, we first explore the lowest degrees attainable by smooth…
In this paper, we expand on previous work describing partial derivatives and metric component estimators to define tangent spaces on causal sets. Partial derivative operators are the basis vectors of the tangent space, and the metric…
In this article, we study rectifying curves in arbitrary dimensional Euclidean space. A curve is said to be a rectifying curve if, in all points of the curve, the orthogonal complement of its normal vector contains a fixed point. We…
Let X be a (possibly nodal) K-trivial threefold moving in a fixed ambient space P. Suppose X contains a continuous family of curves, all of whose members satisfy certain unobstructedness conditions in P. A formula is given for computing the…
In mathematics curves are typically defined as the images of continuous real functions (parametrizations) defined on a closed interval. They can also be defined as connected one-dimensional compact subsets of points. For simple curves of…
Following our joint work arXiv:1003.4578 with Robert Langlands, we make the first steps toward developing geometric methods for analyzing trace formulas in the case of the function field of a curve defined over a finite field. We also…
We describe an algorithm that determines a set of unramified covers of a given hyperelliptic curve, with the property that any rational point will lift to one of the covers. In particular, if the algorithm returns an empty set, then the…
A closed plane meander of order $n$ is a closed self-avoiding curve intersecting an infinite line $2n$ times. Meanders are considered distinct up to any smooth deformation leaving the line fixed. We have developed an improved algorithm,…
