In this paper, we call a sub-scheme of dimension one in $\mathbb{P}^3$ a curve. It is well known that the arithmetic genus and the degree of an aCM curve $D$ in $\mathbb{P}^3$ is computed by the $h$-vector of $D$. However, for a given curve…

This study defines finite-type invariants for curves on surfaces and reveals the construction of these finite-type invariants for stable homeomorphism classes of curves on compact oriented surfaces without boundaries. These invariants are a…

We consider characterizations of projective varieties in terms of their tangents. S. Mori established the characterization of projective spaces in arbitrary characteristic by ampleness of tangent bundles. J. Wahl characterized projective…

In the current paper we show that the dimension of a family $V$ of irreducible reduced curves in a given ample linear system on a toric surface $S$ over an algebraically closed field is bounded from above by $-K_S.C+p_g(C)-1$, where $C$…

This note is devoted, after the result of Harui, arXiv:1306.5842, to solve some natural questions for non-singular plane curves of degree $d$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ of zero characteristic.

We provide an explicit classification of supersingular elliptic curves in characteristic~3 into isomorphism classes, and give explicit formulae for their point counts. This report was written specifically to support implementation of point…

Let $R$ be the homogeneous coordinate ring of a smooth projective variety $X$ over a field $\k$ of characteristic~0. We calculate the $K$-theory of $R$ in terms of the geometry of the projective embedding of $X$. In particular, if $X$ is a…

Let k be a field. We show that all homogeneous noncommutative curves of genus zero over k are noncommutative P^1-bundles over a (possibly) noncommutative base. Using this result, we compute complete isomorphism invariants of homogeneous…

In this article we obtain a rigid isotopy classification of generic pointed quartic curves $(A,p)$ in $\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^{2}$ by studying the combinatorial properties of dessins. The dessins are real versions, proposed by S. Orevkov, of…

Splitting invariants describe how a plane curve "splits" by the pull-back under a Galois cover over the projective plane whose branch locus contains no component of the plane curve. They enable us to distinguish the embedded topology of…

In this paper, we describe the Brill--Noether theory of a general smooth plane curve and a general curve $C$ on a Hirzebruch surface of fixed class. It is natural to study the line bundles on such curves according to the splitting type of…

In this paper we complete the classification of the elliptic fibrations on K3 surfaces which admit a non-symplectic involution acting trivially on the N\'eron--Severi group. We use the geometric method introduced by Oguiso and moreover we…

We construct a version of differential $K$-theory based on smooth Banach manifold models for the homotopy types $B \mathrm U\times Z$ and $\mathrm U$ that appear in the topological $K$-theory spectrum. These manifolds carry natural…

The second author and Katzarkov introduced categorical invariants based on counting of full triangulated subcategories in a given triangulated category $\mathcal T$, and they demonstrated different choices of additional properties of the…

In order to study projections of smooth curves, we introduce multifiltrations obtained by combining flags of osculating spaces. We classify all configurations of singularities occurring for a projection of a smooth curve embedded by a…

Let k=F_q be a finite field of characteristic 2. A genus 3 curve C/k has many involutions if the group of k-automorphisms admits a C_2\times C_2 subgroup H (not containing the hyperelliptic involution if C is hyperelliptic). Then C is an…

Let $k$ be an infinite finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$. Fix a separated scheme $X$ smooth, geometrically connected, and of finite type over $k$ and a smooth proper morphism $f:Y\rightarrow X$. The main result of this paper…

In this appendix, we summarize known results on the geometry of Severi varieties on toric surfaces - the varieties parameterizing integral curves of a given geometric genus in a given linear system. Till the last decade, Severi varieties…

We propose a topological approach to the problem of determining a curve from its iterated integrals. In particular, we prove that a family of terms in the signature series of a two dimensional closed curve with finite p variation, 1\leq…

We prove sharp smoothing properties of the averaging operator defined by convolution with a measure on a smooth nondegenerate curve $\gamma$ in $\mathbb R^d$, $d\ge 3$. Despite the simple geometric structure of such curves, the sharp…
