We study the existence and the schematic structure of elementary components of the nested Hilbert scheme on a smooth quasi-projective variety. Precisely, we find a new lower bound for the existence of non-smoothable nestings of fat points…
Let $A$ be a closed affine subspace and let $B$ be a hyperplane in a Hilbert space. Suppose we are given their associated nearest point mappings $P_A$ and $P_B$, respectively. We present a formula for the projection onto their intersection…
A dual foliation treatment of General Relativity is presented. The basic idea of the construction is to consider two foliations of a spacetime by spacelike hypersurfaces and relate the two geometries. The treatment is expected to be useful…
Let $D$ be a smooth divisor on a non singular surface $S$. We compute Betti numbers of the relative Hilbert scheme of points of $S$ relative to $D$. In the case of $\PP^2$ and a line in it, we give an explicit set of generators and…
In connection with each global field of positive characteristic we exhibit many examples of two-variable algebraic functions possessing properties consistent with a conjectural refinement of the Stark conjecture in the function field case…
We compare and contrast results of E. Davis, of A. Bigatti, A.V. Geramita and the author, and of J. Ahn and the author. The underlying idea is that certain numerical conditions on the Hilbert function of a finite set of points in projective…
We show that every automorphism of the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on a weak Fano or general type surface is natural, i.e. induced by an automorphism of the surface, unless the surface is a product of curves and $n=2$. In the exceptional…
We analyse the geometry of Hilbert schemes of points on abelian surfaces and Beauville's generalized Kummer varieties in positive characteristics. The main result is that, in characteristic two, the addition map from the Hilbert scheme of…
In this note we show that the union of $r$ general lines and one fat line in ${\mathbb P}^3$ imposes independent conditions on forms of sufficiently high degree $d$, where the bound on $d$ is independent of the number of lines. This extends…
In this paper, we investigate the relationship between the Hilbert functions and the associated properties of the graded modules. To attain this, we construct the graded modules from the sets of points in projective space, $\mathbb{P}_k^n$…
We study flips in hypertriangulations of planar points sets. Here a level-$k$ hypertriangulation of $n$ points in the planes is a subdivision induced by the projection of a $k$-hypersimplex, which is the convex hull of the barycenters of…
In singularity theory or algebraic geometry, it is natural to investigate possible Hilbert functions for special algebras $A$ such as local complete intersections or more generally Gorenstein algebras. The sequences that occur as {the}…
We address the problem to determine the limit of the collision of fat points in $\mathbb{P}^n. We give a description of the limit scheme in many cases, in particular in low dimension and multiplicities. The problem turns out to be closely…
We study the Hilbert series of a family of ideals J_\phi generated by powers of linear forms in k[x_1,...,x_n]. Using the results of Emsalem-Iarrobino, we formulate this as a question about fatpoints in P^{n-1}. In the three variable case…
In the space of holomorphic functions in a convex domain it is studied the interpolation problem by means of sums of the series of exponentials converging uniformly on all compact sets of the domain. The discrete set of the interpolation…
We study the geometry and topology of Hilbert schemes of points on the orbifold surface [C^2/G], respectively the singular quotient surface C^2/G, where G is a finite subgroup of SL(2,C) of type A or D. We give a decomposition of the…
Using pagoda flop transitions between smooth projective threefolds, a relation is derived between the Euler numbers of moduli spaces of stable pairs which are scheme-theoretically supported on a fixed singular space curve and Euler numbers…
The graded Betti numbers of the minimal free resolution (and also therefore the Hilbert function) of the ideal of a fat point subscheme Z of P^2 are determined whenever Z is supported at any 6 or fewer distinct points. All results hold over…
We denote by $\Hp$ the Hilbert space of ordinary Dirichlet series with square-summable coefficients. The main result is that a bounded sequence of points in the half-plane $\sigma >1/2$ is an interpolating sequence for $\Hp$ if and only if…
Let $F$ be a line bundle on the blow-up $X$ of $P^2$ at $r$ general points $p_1, ..., p_r$ and let $L$ be the pullback to $X$ of the line bundle coming from a line on $P^2$. Under reasonable hypotheses that are conjectured always to hold if…
