We present a new method for visualizing implicit real algebraic curves inside a bounding box in the $2$-D or $3$-D ambient space based on numerical continuation and critical point methods. The underlying techniques work also for tracing…

In the past 20 years, compactifications of the families of curves in algebraic varieties X have been studied via stable maps, Hilbert schemes, stable pairs, unramified maps, and stable quotients. Each path leads to a different enumeration…

For real irreducible algebraic curves of the seventh degree, there are 22 types of singular points of multiplicity six, 174 types of singular points of multiplicity five, and at least 182 types of singular points of multiplicity four. For…

It is proven that for any topological or analytical types of isolated singular points of plane curves, there exists a non-real irreducible plane algebraic curve of degree $d$ which goes through $d^2$ real distinct points and has imaginary…

Two classical results in algebraic geometry are that the branch curve of a del Pezzo surface of degree 1 can be embedded as a space sextic curve and that every space sextic curve has exactly 120 tritangents corresponding to its odd theta…

The action of ring automorphisms of the polynomial ring in two variables over the real numbers on real plane curves is considered. The orbits containing degree-three polynomials are computed, with one representative per orbit being…

For a planar graph with a given f-vector $(f_{0}, f_{1}, f_{2}),$ we introduce a cubic polynomial whose coefficients depend on the f-vector. The planar graph is said to be real if all the roots of the corresponding polynomial are real. Thus…

We describe new algorithms to compute Whitney stratifications of real algebraic varieties. Using either conormal or polar techniques, these algorithms stratify a complexification of a given real variety. We then show that the resulting…

We find a general solution to the unique 7th order ODE admitting ten dimensional group of contact symmetries. The integral curves of this ODE are rational contact curves in $\PP^3$ which give rise to rational plane curves of degree six. The…

We give some real polynomials in two variables of degrees 4, 5, and 6 whose hessian curves have more connected components than had been known previously. In particular, we give a quartic polynomial whose hessian curve has 4 compact…

We prove that the following problem has the same computational complexity as the existential theory of the reals: Given a generic self-intersecting closed curve $\gamma$ in the plane and an integer $m$, is there a polygon with $m$ vertices…

A natural oriented (2k+2)-chain in CP^{2k+1} with boundary twice RP^{2k+1}, its complex shade, is constructed. Via intersection numbers with the shade, a new invariant, the shade number of k-dimensional subvarieties with normal vector…

We give explicit computational algorithms to construct minimal degree (always $\le 4$) ramified covers of $\Prj^1$ for algebraic curves of genus 5 and 6. This completes the work of Schicho and Sevilla (who dealt with the $g \le 4$ case) on…

In this article we obtain a rigid isotopy classification of generic pointed quartic curves $(A,p)$ in $\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^{2}$ by studying the combinatorial properties of dessins. The dessins are real versions, proposed by S. Orevkov, of…

We present an algorithm for computing curves and families of curves of prescribed degree and geometric genus on real rational surfaces.

In this article we give an implementation of the standard algorithm to segment a real algebraic plane curve defined implicitly. Our implementation is efficient and simpler than previous. We use global information to count the number of…

The space of orientation-compatible almost complex structures on the six-dimensional sphere naturally contains a copy of seven-dimensional real projective space. We show that the inclusion induces an isomorphism on fundamental groups and…

A real algebraic plane curve $A$ is said to be dividing if its real part $\mathbb{R}A$ disconnects its complex part $\mathbb{C}A$. A pencil of curves is totally real with respect to $A$ if it has only real intersections with $\mathbb{C}A$.…

Isotropic Quot schemes parameterize rank $r$ isotropic subsheaves of a vector bundle equipped with symplectic or symmetric quadratic form. We define a virtual fundamental class for isotropic Quot schemes over smooth projective curves. Using…
