We study topological zeta functions of complex plane curve singularities using toric modifications and further developments. As applications of the research method, we prove that the topological zeta function is a topological invariant for…
We describe three algorithms to determine the stable, semistable, and torus-polystable loci of the GIT quotient of a projective variety by a reductive group. The algorithms are efficient when the group is semisimple. By using an…
In this paper we explicitly compute equations for the twists of all the smooth plane quartic curves defined over a number field k. Since the plane quartic curves are non-hyperelliptic curves of genus 3 we can apply the method developed by…
We generalize the formula for the log canonical threshold(LCT) of plane curves over the complex numbers to arbitrary characteristics. Our proof relies purely on valuation theory, instead of on the theory of $D$-modules.
In this paper we focus on the problem of computing the number of moduli of the so called Severi varieties (denoted by V(|D|, \delta)), which parametrize universal families of irreducible, \delta-nodal curves in a complete linear system |D|,…
We prove that a smooth, complex plane curve $C$ of odd degree can be defined by a polynomial with real coefficients if and only if $C$ is isomorphic to its complex conjugate. Counterexamples are known for curves of even degree. More…
The dimension of the moduli space of smooth pointed curves with prescribed Weierstrass semigroup at the market point is computed for three families of symmetric semigroups of multiplicity six. We also collect the dimensions of such moduli…
In this paper, we introduce \textit{splitting numbers} of subvarieties in a smooth variety for a Galois cover, and prove that the splitting numbers are invariant under certain homeomorphisms. By splitting numbers, we give a necessary and…
We give a formula to compute the dimension of the generic component of the moduli space of an irreducible germ of curve in the complex plane.
We develop a formula for tautological integrals over geometric subsets of the Hilbert scheme of points on complex manifolds. As an illustration of the theory, we derive a new iterated residue formula for the number of nodal curves in…
We give a practical formula for counting irreducible nodal genus-three plane curves that a fixed generic complex structure on the normalization. As an intermediate step, we enumerate rational plane curves that have a $(3,4)$-cusp.
We calculate the generating functions for the number of tilings of rectangles of various widths by the right tromino, the $L$ tetromino, and the $T$ tetromino. This allows us to place lower bounds on the entropy of tilings of the plane by…
Consider a smooth projective curve and a given embedding into projective space via a sufficiently positive line bundle. We can form the secant variety of $k$-planes through the curve. These are singular varieties, with each secant variety…
Given a lattice polygon, we study the moduli space of all tropical plane curves with that Newton polygon. We determine a formula for the dimension of this space in terms of combinatorial properties of that polygon. We prove that if this…
Given a curve over a finite field, we compute the number of stable bundles of not necessarily coprime rank and degree over it. We apply this result to compute the virtual Poincare polynomials of the moduli spaces of stable bundles over a…
For a smooth plane cubic $B$, we count curves $C$ of degree $d$ such that the normalizations of $C\backslash B$ are isomorphic to $\Bbb A^1$, for $d\leq7$ (for $d=7$ under some assumption). We also count plane rational quartic curves…
We develop a number of general techniques for comparing analytifications and tropicalizations of algebraic varieties. Our basic results include a projection formula for tropical multiplicities and a generalization of the Sturmfels-Tevelev…
We describe algorithms for computing the intersection numbers of divisors and of Chern classes of the Hodge bundle on the moduli spaces of stable pointed curves. We also discuss the implementations and the results obtained. There are…
We first recall Solomon's relations for Welschinger's invariants counting real curves in real symplectic fourfolds, announced in \cite{Jake2} and established in \cite{RealWDVV}, and the WDVV-style relations for Welschinger's invariants…
This note discusses recent new approaches to studying flopping curves on 3-folds. In a joint paper, the author and Michael Wemyss introduced a 3-fold invariant, the contraction algebra, which may be associated to such curves. It…
