To a singular foliation on the plane corresponds a circular boundary at infinity endowed with a pre-lamination on the circle. We solve the converse direction. We determine which pre-lamination on the circle are boundary at infinity of a…
Line congruences are $2$-dimensional families of lines in $3$-space. The singularities that appear in generic line congruences are folds, cusps and swallowtails. In this paper we give a geometric description of these singularities. The main…
For certain real quadratic fields $K$ with sufficiently small discriminant we produce explicit unit generators for specific ray class fields of $K$ using a numerical method that arose in the study of complete sets of equiangular lines in…
In this paper, we study the geometry of trisections on certain rational elliptic surfaces. We utilize Mumford representations of semi-reduced divisors in order to construct trisections and related plane curves with interesting properties…
We find a geometrical method of analysing the singularities of a plane nodal curve. The main results will be used in a forthcoming paper on geometric Plucker formulas for such curves. Plane nodal curves, that is plane curves having at most…
A family of algebraic surfaces with many nondegenerate real singularities is introduced with the help of a construction, which has been used in previous works for the generation of substitution tilings.
A weak pseudoline arrangement is a topological generalization of a line arrangement, consisting of curves topologically equivalent to lines that cross each other at most once. We consider arrangements that are outerplanar---each crossing is…
This paper provides an overview of selected results and open problems in the theory of hyperplane arrangements, with an emphasis on computations and examples. We give an introduction to many of the essential tools used in the area, such as…
We prove the existence of lattice isomorphic line arrangements having $\pi_1$-equivalent or homotopy-equivalent complements and non homeomorphic embeddings in the complex projective plane. We also provide two explicit examples, one is…
Congruences, or $2$-parameter families of lines in $3$-space are of interest in many situations, in particular in geometric optics. In this paper we consider elements of their geometry which are invariant under affine changes of…
We study the version of the C-Planarity problem in which edges connecting the same pair of clusters must be grouped into pipes, which generalizes the Strip Planarity problem. We give algorithms to decide several families of instances for…
In this paper, for a given finitely generated algebra (an algebraic structure with arbitrary operations and no predicates) A we study finitely generated limit algebras of A, approaching them via model theory and algebraic geometry. Along…
Let A be a line arrangement in the complex projective plane CP2. We define and describe the inclusion map of the boundary manifold --the boundary of a close regular neighborhood of A-- in the exterior of the arrangement. We obtain two…
We show that the fundamental group of the complement of an arrangement of complex lines in the complex plane is a free group if and only if the arrangement is a union of parallel lines.
This is a survey on the Fano schemes of linear spaces, conics, rational curves, and curves of higher genera in smooth projective hypersurfaces, complete intersections, Fano threefolds, etc.
In the 7-vertex triangulation of the torus, the 14 triangles can be partitioned as $T_{1} \sqcup T_{2}$, such that each $T_{i}$ represents the lines of a copy of the Fano plane $PG(2, \mathbb{F}_{2})$. We generalize this observation by…
We completely classify all plane curves of degree at most 30 with a unique cuspidal (locally unibranch) singular point and rational normalization in terms of the Newton pairs parameterizing the cusp. We distinguish between prime and…
We prove some uniqueness results for conics of minimal area that enclose a compact, full-dimensional subset of the elliptic plane. The minimal enclosing conic is unique if its center or axes are prescribed. Moreover, we provide sufficient…
We prove a generalization of a result of Peres and Schlag on the dimensions of certain exceptional sets of projections and then apply it to a geometric problem.
We enumerate complex curves on toric surfaces of any given degree and genus, having a single cusp and nodes as their singularities, and matching appropriately many point constraints. The solution is obtained via tropical enumerative…
