We show first that a generic hypersurface $V$ of degree $d\geq 3$ in the complex projective space $ \mathbb{P}^n$ of dimension $n \geq 3$ has at least one hyperplane section $V \cap H$ containing exactly $n$ ordinary double points, alias…
We show for the moduli space of rank-2 coherent sheaves on an algebraic surface that there exists a 'dual' moduli space. This dual space allows a construction of the first one without using the GIT construction. Furthermore, we obtain a…
Fix constants \chi >0 and \theta \in [0,2\pi), and let h be an instance of the Gaussian free field on a planar domain. We study flow lines of the vector field e^{i(h/\chi+\theta)} starting at a fixed boundary point of the domain.…
Let $C \subset \mathbb{P}^2$ be a plane curve of degree at least three. A point $P$ in projective plane is said to be Galois if the function field extension induced by the projection $\pi_P: C \dashrightarrow \mathbb P^1$ from $P$ is…
We show that over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to 2, homological projective duality for smooth quadric hypersurfaces and for double covers of projective spaces branched over smooth quadric hypersurfaces is a…
Given an affine hyperplane arrangement with some additional structure, we define two finite-dimensional, noncommutative algebras, both of which are motivated by the geometry of hypertoric varieties. We show that these algebras are Koszul…
We study intersections of exceptional curves on del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1, motivated by questions in arithmetic geometry. Outside characteristics 2 and 3, at most 10 exceptional curves can intersect in a point. We classify the…
We study a duality for the $n$-point functions in VEV formalism that we call the ordinary vs fully simple duality. It provides an ultimate generalisation and a proper context for the duality between maps and fully simple maps observed by…
Algebraic surfaces of general type with $q=0$, $p_g=2$ and $K^2=1$ were described by Enriques and then studied in more detail by Horikawa. In this paper we consider a $16$-dimensional family of special Horikawa surfaces which are certain…
We study the interplay between the classical theory of linear series on curves, and the recent theory of linear series on graphs. We prove that every d-gonal (weighted) graph of Hurwitz type is the dual graph of a d-gonal curve. Conversely…
Classically, the projective duality between joins of varieties and the intersections of varieties only holds in good cases. In this paper, we show that categorically, the duality between joins and intersections holds in the framework of…
Graphical models have proven to be powerful tools for representing high-dimensional systems of random variables. One example of such a model is the undirected graph, in which lack of an edge represents conditional independence between two…
In the second, fourth and fifth authors' previous work, a duality on generic real analytic cuspidal edges in the Euclidean 3-space $\boldsymbol R^3$ preserving their singular set images and first fundamental forms, was given. Here, we call…
Graphene and other two-dimensional materials display remarkable optical properties, including a simple light transparency of $T \approx 1 - \pi \alpha$ for light in the visible region. Most theoretical rationalizations of this "universal"…
We discuss two known sheaf-cosheaf duality theorems: Curry's for the face posets of finite regular CW complexes and Lurie's for compact Hausdorff spaces, i.e., covariant Verdier duality. We provide a uniform formulation for them and prove…
When considering regularity of surfaces, it is its geometry that is of interest. Thus, the concept of geometric regularity or geometric continuity of a specific order is a relevant concept. In this paper we discuss necessary and sufficient…
This is an expanded version of the two papers "Interpolation of Varieties of Minimal Degree" and "Interpolation Problems: Del Pezzo Surfaces." It is well known that one can find a rational normal curve in $\mathbb P^n$ through $n+3$ general…
In 1978 Durfee conjectured various inequalities between the signature and the geometric genus of a normal surface singularity. Since then a few counter examples have been found and positive results established in some special cases. We…
We investigate geometric invariants of cuspidal edges on focal surfaces of regular surface. In particular, we shall clarify the sign of the singular curvature at a cuspidal edge on a focal surface using singularities of parallel surface of…
We investigate the behaviour of vertices and inflexions on 1-parameter families of curves on smooth surfaces in the 3-space, which include a singular member. In particular, we discuss the context where the curves evolve as sections of a…
