In this paper we analyze the intersection between the norm-trace curve over $\mathbb{F}_{q^3}$ and the curves of the form $y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d$, giving a complete characterization of the intersection between the curve and the parabolas, as…
We review part of the classical theory of curves and surfaces in $3$-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space. We focus in spacelike surfaces with constant mean curvature pointing the differences and similarities with the Euclidean space.
A classical result attributed to Joachimsthal in 1846 states that if two surfaces intersect with constant angle along a line of curvature of one surface, then the curve of intersection is also a line of curvature of the other surface. In…
These lectures give a short introduction to the study of curves on algebraic varieties. After an elementary proof of the dimension formula for the space of curves, we summarize the basic properties of uniruled and of rationally connected…
A generalization of the Euler's elastic problem, i.e., finding a stationary configuration (planar elastica) of the Bernoulli's thin ideal elastic rod with boundary conditions defined through fixed endpoints and/or tangents at the endpoints,…
This is an expository essay about systolic geometry. It describes a central theorem in the subject and why the proof is difficult. Then it discusses different metaphors which suggest ways to approach the problem. The metaphors connect the…
We study punctual quot-schemes of torsion-free sheaves $E_Y$ on smooth projective curves, surfaces and Calabi--Yau fourfolds via their virtual geometry. Our goal is to give a complete description of the virtual fundamental classes and their…
Here we carefully construct an equivalence between the derived category of coherent sheaves on an elliptic curve and a version of the Fukaya category on its mirror. This is the most accessible case of homological mirror symmetry. We also…
Oriented closed curves on an orientable surface with boundary are described up to continuous deformation by reduced cyclic words in the generators of the fundamental group and their inverses. By self-intersection number one means the…
In this note we extend the theory of twists of elliptic curves as presented in various standard texts for characteristic not equal to two or three to the remaining characteristics. For this, we make explicit use of the correspondence…
In this study we consider AW(k)-type curves according to parallel transport frame in Euclidean space E^4. We give the relations between the parallel transport curvatures of these kinds of curves.
We study the set of rational curves of a certain topological type in general members of certain families of Calabi-Yau threefolds. For some families we investigate to what extent it is possible to conclude that this set is finite. For other…
In this paper, we consider the self-affinity of planar curves. It is regarded as an important property to characterize the log-aesthetic curves which have been studied as reference curves or guidelines for designing aesthetic shapes in CAD…
We identify a class of autoequivalences of triangulated categories of singularities associated with Calabi-Yau complete intersections in toric varieties. Elements of this class satisfy relations that are directly linked to the toric data.
These are expanded notes for the mini-course given by the author at the 2022 ICTS workshop `Elliptic curves and the special values of $L$-functions'.
Different descriptions used to model a point-defect in an elastic continuum are reviewed. The emphasis is put on the elastic dipole approximation, which is shown to be equivalent to the infinitesimal Eshelby inclusion and to the…
In this paper, we investigate special curves on a weak r-helix submanifold in Euclidean n-space E^{n}. Also, we give the important relations between weak r-helix submanifolds and the special curves such as line of curvature, asymptotic…
We give an overview of results on irregular complex surfaces of general type, discussing in particular the distribution of the numerical invariants self-intersection of a canonical divisor and holomorphic Euler characteristic for the…
This expository survey is dedicated to recent developments in the area of linear dynamics. Topics include frequent hypercyclicity, $\mathcal{U}$-frequent hypercyclicity, reiterative hypercyclicity, operators of C-type, Li-Yorke and…
We consider some problems of analytic number theory for elliptic curves which can be considered as analogues of classical questions around the distribution of primes in arithmetic progressions to large moduli, and of the question of twin…
