We interpret the setting for a Radon transform as a submanifold of the space of generalized functions, and compute its extrinsic curvature: it is the Hessian composed with the Radon transform.
We classify the singularities of a surface ruled by conics: they are rational double points of type $A_n$ or $D_n$. This is proved by showing that they arise from a precise series of blow-ups of a suitable surface geometrically ruled by…
A hypersurface $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 4$, has central ovaloid property if $M$ intersects some hyperplane transversally along an ovaloid and every such ovaloid on $M$ has central symmetry. We show that a complete, connected, smooth…
For a Riemannian manifold $M$, possibly with boundary, we consider the Riemannian product $M\times\mathbb{R}^k$ with a smooth positive function that weights the Riemannian measures. In this work we characterize parabolic hypersurfaces with…

We study the geometry of surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{4}$ with corank $1$ singularities. For such surfaces the singularities are isolated and at each point we define the curvature parabola in the normal space. This curve codifies all the second…
In this paper we generalise a celebrated result of Milnor that characterises whether a rotationally symmetric surface is parabolic or hyperbolic to the case of biharmonic functions.
A surface S in R^3 has the central plane oval property (cpo) if (i) S meets at least one affine plane transversally along a strictly convex oval, and (ii) Every such transverse oval on S has central symmetry. We show that a complete,…

In this article we introduce new affinely invariant points---`special parabolic points'---on the parabolic set of a generic surface $M$ in real 4-space, associated with symmetries in the 2-parameter family of reflexions of $M$ in points of…
Let $G_{n,k}(\bbK)$ be the Grassmannian manifold of $k$-dimensional $\bbK$-subspaces in $\bbK^n$ where $\bbK=\mathbb R, \mathbb C, \mathbb H$ is the field of real, complex or quaternionic numbers. For $1\le k < k^\prime \le n-1$ we define…
The Eckardt hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{19}$ parameterizes smooth cubic surfaces with an Eckardt point, which is a point common to three of the $27$ lines on a smooth cubic surface. We describe the cubic surfaces lying on the singular…
A finite subgroup of the conformal group SL(2,C) can be related to invariant polynomials on a hypersurface in C^3. The latter then carries a simple singularity, which resolves by a finite iteration of basic cycles of deprojections. The…
Fixed a point O on a non-singular surface S and a complete mO-primary ideal I in its local ring, the curves on the surface X obtained by blowing-up I are studied in terms of the base points of I. Criteria for the principality of these…
A monoid hypersurface is an irreducible hypersurface of degree d which has a singular point of multiplicity d-1. Any monoid hypersurface admits a rational parameterization, hence is of potential interest in computer aided geometric design.…
