We study the free path problem, i.e., if we are given two free arrangements of hyperplanes, then we can connect them by free arrangements or not. We prove that if an arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{A} \setminus \{H,L\}$ are free,…

The purpose of this paper is to give new examples of families of free singularities. We first show that a generic equidimensional subspace arrangement is free. Furthermore, we show that a product of two reduced Cohen-Macaulay subspaces is…

Let ${\mathcal C}= \bigcup_{i=1}^n C_i \subseteq \mathbb{P}^2$ be a collection of smooth rational plane curves. We prove that the addition-deletion operation used in the study of hyperplane arrangements has an extension which works for a…

We investigate combinatorial bounds for the total Tjurina numbers of plane curve arrangements. Focusing on arrangements of lines and conics in $\mathbb{P}^2$ that admit only ordinary quasi-homogeneous singularities, we derive new structural…

Let $C$ be an irreducible projective plane curve in the complex projective space ${\mathbb{P}}^2$. The classification of such curves, up to the action of the automorphism group $PGL(3,{\mathbb{C}})$ on ${\mathbb{P}}^2$, is a very difficult…

We construct counterexamples to Yoshinaga's conjecture that every free arrangement is either inductively free or rigid in characteristic zero. The smallest example has $13$ hyperplanes, its intersection lattice has a one dimensional moduli…

We give a complete classification of Q_l-cohomology projective planes with isolated ADE-singularities and numerically trivial canonical bundle in odd characteristic. This leads to a beautiful relation with certain Enriques surfaces which…

We classify complex compact parallelizable manifolds which admit flat torsion free holomorphic affine connections. We exhibit complex compact manifolds admitting holomorphic affine connections, but no flat torsion free holomorphic affine…

In this paper we consider cubic 4-folds containing a plane whose discriminant curve is a reduced nodal plane sextic. In particular, we describe the singular points of such cubic 4-folds and we give an estimate of the rank of the free…

We define a combinatorial object that can be associated with any conic-line arrangement with ordinary singularities, which we call the combinatorial Poincar\'e polynomial. We prove a Terao-type factorization statement on the splitting of…

In the present paper we investigate the question concerning the existence of maximizing curves of degree $7$ with some prescribed ${\rm ADE}$ singularities. We give a result proving the non-existence of such maximizing septics and we…

We compute some numerical invariants of the lines on hyperplane sections of a smooth cubic threefold over complex numbers. We also prove that for any smooth hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb P^{n+1}$ of degree $d$ over an algebraically closed…

We construct here many families of K3 surfaces that one can obtain as quotients of algebraic surfaces by some subgroups of the rank four complex reflection groups. We find in total 15 families with at worst $ADE$--singularities. In…

We construct examples of flat surfaces in $\mathbb{H}^3$ which are graphs over a two-punctured horosphere and classify complete embedded flat surfaces in $\mathbb{H}^3$ with only one end and at most two isolated singularities.

We prove the sharp upper bound of at most $52$ lines on a complex K3-surface of degree four with a non-empty singular locus. We also classify the configurations of more than $48$ lines on smooth complex quartics.

We classify compact K\"ahler threefolds $X$ with a free group of automorphisms acting freely on $X$.

An isomorphism of symplectically tame smooth pseudocomplex structures on the complex projective plane which is a homeomorphism and differentiable of full rank at two points is smooth.

In this paper we classify all free actions of finite groups on Calabi-Yau complete intersection of 4 quadrics in $\PP^7$, up to projective equivalence. We get some examples of smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds with large nonabelian fundamental…

The group PGL(3) of linear transformations of the projective plane acts naturally on the projective space parametrizing curves of a given degree. In this note we begin the study of the orbits of smooth curves under this action: we construct…

In this paper infinite families of examples of irreducible free and nearly free curves in the complex projective plane which are not rational curves and whose local singularites can have an arbitrary number of branches are given. All these…
