We show the existence of toric resolution tower for an irreducible curve singularity which is explicitly described by Tschirnhausen polynomials. We deduce for a smooth affine plane curve from its topology restrictions for its singularity at…

We formulate a refined theory of linear systems, using the methods of a previous paper, "A Theory of Branches for Algebraic Curves", and use it to give a geometric interpretation of the genus of an algebraic curve. Using principles of…

We prove the following generalization of Severi's Theorem: Let $X$ be a fixed complex variety. Then there exist, up to birational equivalence, only finitely many complex varieties $Y$ of general type of dimension at most three which admit a…

Given a geometrically irreducible subscheme X in P^n over F_q of dimension at least 2, we prove that the fraction of degree d hypersurfaces H such that the intersection of H and X is geometrically irreducible tends to 1 as d tends to…

This is an expository article detailing results concerning large arcs in finite projective spaces, which attempts to cover the most relevant results on arcs, simplifying and unifying proofs of known old and more recent theorems. The article…

The correspondence between 2-parameter families of oriented lines in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$ and surfaces in $T{\Bbb{P}}^1$ is studied, and the geometric properties of the lines are related to the complex geometry of the surface. Congruences…

We prove that certain Severi varieties of nodal curves of positive genus on general blow-ups of the twofold symmetric product of a general elliptic curve are non-empty and smooth of the expected dimension. This result, besides its intrinsic…

In this paper we develop an abstract theory for the Codazzi equation on surfaces, and use it as an analytic tool to derive new global results for surfaces in the space forms ${\bb R}^3$, ${\bb S}^3$ and ${\bb H}^3$. We give essentially…

We introduce the notion of almost finite dimensionality of algebras and study its connection with the classical finiteness conditions.

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…

In this paper we study the geometry of the Severi varieties parametrizing curves on the rational ruled surface $\fn$. We compute the number of such curves through the appropriate number of fixed general points on $\fn$, and the number of…

The main goal of this note is to provide a new proof of a classical result about projectivities between finite abelian groups. It is based on the concept of fundamental group lattice, studied in our previous papers \cite{8} and \cite{9}. A…

Let $(S,L)$ be a general polarized Enriques surface, with $L$ not numerically 2-divisible. We prove the existence of regular components of all Severi varieties of irreducible $\delta$-nodal curves in the linear system $|L|$, with $0\leq…

These notes collect results about algebraic correspondences and adapt them to the setting of correspondences on projective lines. The focus lies on finite orbits of algebraic correspondences. The main result is a field theoretic…

In this paper, we prove some fundamental theorems for holomorphic curves on angular domain intersecting a hypersurface, finite set of fixed hyperplanes in general position and finite set of fixed hypersurfaces in general position on complex…

A convex lattice polygon Delta determines a pair (S,L) of a toric surface together with an ample toric line bundle on S. The Severi degree N^{Delta,delta} is the number of delta-nodal curves in the complete linear system |L| passing through…

The main theorem of "S. J. Kov\'acs: The cone of curves of a K3 surface, Math. Ann. 300 (1994), no. 4, 681-691" is proved in arbitrary characteristic. The proof is essentially the same as in the original paper where it was stated only over…

We construct algebraic surfaces with a large number of type A singularities. Bivariate polynomials presented in previous works for the construction of nodal surfaces and certain families of Belyi polynomials are used. In some cases explicit…

In this paper, we study the computation of curvatures at the singular points of algebraic curves and surfaces. The idea is to convert the problem to compute the curvatures of the corresponding regular parametric curves and surfaces, which…
