$V$ is a complete intersection scheme in a multiprojective space if it can be defined by an ideal $I$ with as many generators as $\textrm{codim}(V)$. We investigate the multigraded regularity of complete intersections scheme in…
Let $V$ be a degree $d$, reduced hypersurface in $\mathbb{CP}^{n+1}$, $n \geq 1$, and fix a generic hyperplane, $H$. Denote by $\mathcal{U}$ the (affine) hypersurface complement, $\mathbb{CP}^{n+1}- V \cup H$, and let $\mathcal{U}^c$ be the…
In 1991 S{\o}rensen proposed a conjecture for the maximum number of points on the intersection of a surface of degree $d$ and a non-degenerate Hermitian surface in $\PP^3(\Fqt)$. The conjecture was proven to be true by Edoukou in the case…
We show that the complement of a degree $d$ hypersurface in a projective complete intersection, whose defining equations have degrees strictly larger than $d$, has a rational connectivity higher than expected. The key new feature is that a…
Let $D$ be a very general curve of degree $d=2\ell-\epsilon$ in $\mathbb{P}^2$, with $\epsilon\in \{0,1\}$. Let $\Gamma \subset \mathbb{P}^2$ be an integral curve of geometric genus $g$ and degree $m$, $\Gamma \neq D$, and let $\nu: C\to…
We study arithmetic intersections on twisted (quaternionic) Hilbert modular surfaces and Shimura curves over a real quadratic field. Our first main result is the determination of the degree of the top arithmetic Todd class of an arithmetic…
We give a model-independent derivation of general intersecting rules for non-extreme $p$-branes in arbitrary dimensions $D$. This is achieved by directly solving bosonic field equations for supergravity coupled to a dilaton and…
Given positive integers n and m, and a probability measure P on {0, 1, ..., m} the random intersection graph G(n,m,P) on vertex set V = {1,2, ..., n} and with attribute set W = {w_1, w_2, ..., w_m} is defined as follows. Let S_1, S_2, ...,…
Our main theorem characterizes the complete intersections of codimension 2 in a projective space of dimension 3 or more over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 as the subcanonical and self-linked subschemes. In order to prove…
We prove that a general determinantal hypersurface of dimension 3 is nodal. Moreover, in terms of Chern classes associated with bundle morphisms, we derive a formula for the intersection homology Euler characteristic of a general…
We consider the Quot scheme, R_{d}, compactifying the space of degree d maps from the projective line to the Grassmannian of lines. We give an algorithm for computing the degree of R_{d} under a "generalized Pl\"ucker embedding", this is a…
The {\em overlap number} of a finite $(d+1)$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is defined as the largest constant $c(H)\in (0,1]$ such that no matter how we map the vertices of $H$ into $\R^d$, there is a point covered by at least a $c(H)$-fraction of…
Let $M_n(K)$ denote the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over a field $K$ of characteristic zero. A nonunital subalgebra $N \subset M_n(K)$ will be called a nonunital intersection if $N$ is the intersection of two unital subalgebras of…
We consider matchings with diametral disks between two sets of points R and B. More precisely, for each pair of matched points p in R and q in B, we consider the disk through p and q with the smallest diameter. We prove that for any R and B…
Given a set of objects $O$ in the plane, the corresponding intersection graph is defined as follows. Each object defines a vertex and an edge joins two vertices whenever the corresponding objects intersect. We study here the case of unit…
In this paper, a non-integrated defect relation for meromorphic maps from complete K\"ahler manifolds $M$ into smooth projective algebraic varieties $V$ intersecting hypersurfaces located in $k$-subgeneral position is proved. The novelty of…
We give a complete conjectural formula for the number $e_r(d,m)$ of maximum possible ${\mathbb{F}}q$-rational points on a projective algebraic variety defined by $r$ linearly independent homogeneous polynomial equations of degree $d$ in…
We establish lower bounds on the ambient dimension for an intersection of hypersurfaces to have a dense collection of ``level $\ell$" points, in the sense introduced by Arnold-Shimura, given as a polynomial in the numbers of hypersurfaces…
The weighted binomial sum $f_m(r)=2^{-r}\sum_{i=0}^r\binom{m}{i}$ arises in coding theory and information theory. We prove that,for $m\not \in\{0,3,6,9,12\}$, the maximum value of $f_m(r)$ with $0\leqslant r\leqslant m$ occurs when…
Colliding and intersecting hypersurfaces filled with matter (membranes) are studied in the Lovelock higher order curvature theory of gravity. Lovelock terms couple hypersurfaces of different dimensionalities, extending the range of possible…
