It is well known that, given two curves $\mathcal{X}: y^p+cy=x^m$ and $\mathcal{Y}:y^p+cy=x^n$, defined over $\F_p$, if $n$ divides $m$ then there exists a nonconstant morphism $\mathcal{X} \longrightarrow \mathcal{Y}$. In this paper we are…

A real toric space is a topological space which admits a well-behaved $\mathbb{Z}_2^k$-action. Real moment-angle complexes and real toric varieties are typical examples of real toric spaces. A real toric space is determined by a pair of a…

Let $I_A \subset K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be a toric ideal. In this paper, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the toric variety $V(I_A)$, over an algebraically closed field, to be expressed as the set-theoretic intersection of…

The $k$-th secant variety of a projective variety $X \subset \mathbb{P}^N$, denoted by $\sigma_k(X)$, is defined to be the closure of the union of $(k-1)$-planes spanned by $k$ points on $X$. In this paper, we examine the $k$-th secant…

Given any polynomial system with fixed monomial term structure, we give explicit formulae for the generic number of roots with specified coordinate vanishing restrictions. For the case of affine space minus an arbitrary union of coordinate…

Let X be a set definable in a sharply o-minimal structure. We consider the problem of counting the number of points where X intersects algebraic varieties V over Q of dimension k < codim X, as a function of T := deg(V) + h(V), where h(V) is…

We show that a proper algebraic n-dimensional scheme Y admits nontrivial vector bundles of rank n, even if Y is non-projective, provided that there is a modification containing a projective Cartier divisor that intersects the exceptional…

We reveal a natural algebraic problem whose complexity appears to interpolate between the well-known complexity classes BQP and NP: (*) Decide whether a univariate polynomial with exactly m monomial terms has a p-adic rational root. In…

We show that the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a hypersurface X in a nonsingular variety M `interpolates' between two other notions of characteristic classes for singular varieties, provided that the singular locus of X is smooth and…

The genus 0, fixed-domain log Gromov-Witten invariants of a smooth, projective toric variety X enumerate maps from a general pointed rational curve to a smooth, projective toric variety passing through the maximal number of general points…

A classical fact is that through any $d+3$ general points in $\mathbb{P}_\mathbb{C}^d$ there exists a unique rational normal curve of degree $d$ passing through them. We generalize this by proving the following: when $n$ is odd, for any…

A fundamental idea in toric topology is that classes of manifolds with well-behaved torus actions (simply, toric spaces) are classified by pairs of simplicial complexes and (non-singular) characteristic maps. The authors in their previous…

The Cox ring provides a coordinate system on a toric variety analogous to the homogeneous coordinate ring of projective space. Rational maps between projective spaces are described using polynomials in the coordinate ring, and we generalise…

The aim of this note is to use elementary methods to give a large class of examples of projective varieties $ Y \subseteq \mathbb{P}^d_k$ over a field $k$ with the property that $Y$ is not isomorphic to a hypersurface $H\subseteq…

A variety $X$ is covered by lines if there exist a finite number of lines contained in $X$ passing through each general point. I prove two theorems. Theorem 1:Let $X^n\subset P^M$ be a variety covered by lines. Then there are at most $n!$…

We study the GKM theory for a equivariant stratified space having orbifold structures in tis successive quotients. Then, we introduce the notion of an \emph{almost simple polytope}, as well as a \emph{divisive toric variety} generalizing…

A fake weighted projective space X is a Q-factorial toric variety with Picard number one. As with weighted projective space, X comes equipped with a set of weights (\lambda_0,...,\lambda_n). We see how the singularities of…

Let $d$ be a positive integer, $\mathbb K$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and $ X$ an elliptic curve defined over K. We study the hyperelliptic curves equipped with a projection over $ X$, such that the natural image of $…

This paper proves the following converse to a theorem of Mumford: Let $A$ be a principally polarized abelian variety of dimension five, whose theta divisor has a unique singular point, and suppose that the multiplicity of the singular point…

The operational Chow cohomology classes of a complete toric variety are identified with certain functions, called Minkowski weights, on the corresponding fan. The natural product of Chow cohomology classes makes the Minkowski weights into a…
