A locally compact stable plane of positive topological dimension will be called semiaffine if for every line $L$ and every point $p$ not in $L$ there is at most one line passing through $p$ and disjoint from $L$. We show that then the plane…
We show how for every integer n one can explicitly construct n distinct plane quartics and one hyperelliptic curve over the complex numbers all of whose Jacobians are isomorphic to one another as abelian varieties without polarization. When…
We show that any smooth one-dimensional link in the real projective three-plane is the fixed-point locus of a smooth symplectic surface in the complex projective three-plane which is invariant under complex conjugation. The degree of the…
Algebraic varieties which are locally isomorphic to open subsets of affine space will be called {\em plain}. Plain varieties are smooth and rational. The converse is true for curves and surfaces, and unknown in general. It is shown that…
We classify projective symmetries of irreducible plane sextics with simple singularities which are stable under equivariant deformations. We also outline a connection between order~2 stable symmetries and maximal trigonal curves.
We study the sets of planes in an even dimensional real vector space $V$ which are simultaneously stabilised by a pair of complex structures on $V$. We completely describe these sets of planes for pairs of orthogonal complex structures.…
Separable Hamiltonian systems either in sphero-conical coordinates on a $S^2$ sphere or in elliptic coordinates on a ${\mathbb R}^2$ plane are described in an unified way. A back and forth route connecting these Liouville Type I separable…
Finite projective planes are constructed using groups that satisfy simple-looking conditions. The resulting projective planes include many known planes and possibly new ones, and are precisely those having a collineation group fixing a flag…
We prove that under certain combinatorial conditions, the realization spaces of line arrangements on the complex projective plane are connected. We also give several examples of arrangements with eight, nine and ten lines which have…
Using symplectic topology and the Radon transform, we prove that smooth 4-dimensional projective planes are diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{CP}^2$. We define the notion of a plane curve in a smooth projective plane, show that plane curves in high…
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…
This paper is an addition to the book [54] on Compact projective planes. Such planes, if connected and finite-dimensional, have a point space of topological dimension 2, 4, 8, or 16, the classical example in the last case being the…
This informal note provides some elementary examples to motivate the local structural results of [1] on the moduli space of genus one stable maps to projective space. The hope is that these examples will be helpful for graduate students to…
It is known that the space of convex polygons in the Euclidean plane with fixed normals, up to homotheties and translations, endowed with the area form, is isometric to a hyperbolic polyhedron. In this note we show a class of convex…
This note gives the complete projective classification of rational, cuspidal plane curves of degree at least 6, and having only weighted homogeneous singularities. It also sheds new light on some previous characterizations of free and…
Over the complex numbers, the complement of a collection of hyperplanes is a widely-studied object; the cohomology ring, in particular, is known to have a structure depending only on the combinatorial properties of the intersection of…
We extend T. Y. Thomas's approach to the projective structures, over the complex analytic category, by involving the $\rho$-connections. This way, a better control of the projective flatness is obtained and, consequently, we have, for…
A pair of planes, both projective or both affine, of the same order and on the same pointset are orthogoval if each line of one plane intersects each line of the other plane in at most two points. In this paper we prove new constructions…
A family of plane oriented continuous paths depending on a fixed real positive number $R$ is considered. For any point $x$ on the path, the previous points lie out of any circle of radius $R$ having at $x$ interior normal in a suitable…
A Q-homology plane is a normal complex algebraic surface having trivial rational homology. We obtain a structure theorem for Q-homology planes with smooth locus of non-general type. We show that if a Q-homology plane contains a non-quotient…
