Given a multivariate complex polynomial ${p\in\mathbb{C}[z_1,\ldots,z_n]}$, the imaginary projection $\mathcal{I}(p)$ of $p$ is defined as the projection of the variety $\mathcal{V}(p)$ onto its imaginary part. We focus on studying the…

We consider all complex projective manifolds X that satisfy at least one of the following three conditions: 1. There exists a pair $(C ,\varphi)$, where $C$ is a compact connected Riemann surface and $\varphi : C\to X$ a holomorphic map,…

We investigate space curves with large cohomology. To this end we introduce curves of subextremal type. This class includes all subextremal curves. Based on geometric and numerical characterizations of curves of subextremal type, we show…

The goal of this work is to prove an embedding theorem for compact almost complex manifolds into complex algebraic varieties. It is shown that every almost complex structure can be realized by the transverse structure to an algebraic…

Let $D$ be a non-pseudoconvex open set in $\C^3$ and $S$ be the union of all two-dimensional planes with non-empty and non-pseudoconvex intersection with $D.$ Sufficient conditions are given for $\C^3\setminus S$ to belong to a complex…

Let X be a smooth complex projective curve of genus g bigger or equal to 1. If g is bigger than 1 assume further that X is either bielliptic or with general moduli. Under a natural condition on slopes, we prove that there exists a short…

The coamoeba of any complex algebraic plane curve $V$ is its image in the real torus under the argument map. The area counted with multiplicity of the coamoeba of any algebraic curve in $(\mathbb{C}^*)^2$ is bounded in terms of the degree…

The boundary of the convex hull of a compact algebraic curve in real 3-space defines a real algebraic surface. For general curves, that boundary surface is reducible, consisting of tritangent planes and a scroll of stationary bisecants. We…

We investigate the virtual specialness of a compact cube complex $X$ that splits as a graph of nonpositively curved cube complexes. We prove virtual specialness of $X$ when each vertex space of $X$ has word-hyperbolic $\pi_1$ and $\pi_1X$…

The work is devoted to the variety of $2$-dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field. Firstly, we classify such algebras modulo isomorphism. Then we describe the degenerations and the closures of principal algebra series in the…

A non-singular connected algebraic curve $A$ in a simply connected algebraic surface $X$ can be knotted so that its homology class and the fundamental group of its complement in $X$ is preserved, provided $A$ is sufficiently complex (not…

We prove the following: (a) Let X be a smooth, codimension two subvariety of P6. If X lies on a hyperquintic or if deg(X)<74, then X is a complete intersection. (b) Let X be a smooth, subcanonical threefold in P5. If X lies on a…

We study real linear spaces in projective space that avoid the real points of a non-degenerate projective variety. For a variety $X \subset \mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ with a real smooth point, we define the avoidance locus $\mathcal{A}_k(X)$ as the…

The degree of a projective subscheme has an upper bound in term of the codimension and the reduction number. If a projective variety has an almost maximal degree, that is, the degree equals to the upper bound minus one, then its Betti table…

Let G be a semisimple connected linear algebraic group over C, and X a wonderful G-variety. We study the possibility of realizing X as a closed subvariety of the projective space of a simple G-module. We describe the wonderful varieties…

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety and let $H \in \pic(X)$ be an ample line bundle. Assume that $X$ is covered by rational curves with degree one with respect to $H$ and with anticanonical degree greater than or equal to $(\dim…

We investigate the surjectivity of the real cycle class map from $I$-cohomology to classical intergral cohomology for some real smooth varieties, in particular surfaces. This might be considered as one of several possible incarnations of…

In this paper we obtain an explicit formula for the number of curves in a compact complex surface $X$ (passing through the right number of generic points), that has up to one node and one singularity of codimension $k$, provided the total…

The novel concept of box spline of complex degree is introduced and several of its properties derived and discussed. These box splines of complex degree generalize and extend the classical box splines. Relations to a class of fractional…

Let W be the germ of a smooth complex surface around an exceptional curve and let E be a rank 2 vector bundle on W. We study the cohomological properties of a finite sequence $E_i, 1 \leq i \leq t$ of rank 2 vector bundles canonically…
