We revisit Schmidt's theorem connecting the Schmidt rank of a tensor with the codimension of a certain variety and adapt the proof to the case of arbitrary characteristic. We also find a sharper result of this kind for homogeneous…

Let $X_{m,d}\subset \mathbb {P}^N$, $N:= \binom{m+d}{m}-1$, be the order $d$ Veronese embedding of $\mathbb {P}^m$. Let $\tau (X_{m,d})\subset \mathbb {P}^N$, be the tangent developable of $X_{m,d}$. For each integer $t \ge 2$ let $\tau…

For a semialgebraic set K in R^n, let P_d(K) be the cone of polynomials in R^n of degrees at most d that are nonnegative on K. This paper studies the geometry of its boundary. When K=R^n and d is even, we show that its boundary lies on the…

In this paper we introduce the word {\em fresco} to denote a monogenic geometric (a,b)-module. This "basic object" (generalized Brieskorn module with one generator) corresponds to the formal germ of the minimal filtered (regular)…

We show that any holomorphic germ $f \colon (X,x_0) \to (Y,y_0)$ of topological degree $1$ between normal surface singularities can be written as $f=\pi \circ \sigma$, where $\pi \colon Y' \to (Y,y_0)$ is a modification and $\sigma \colon…

Using the theory of exterior differential systems, we study the existence of germ of pseudo-holomorphic disk in a real analytic hypersurface locally defined in a complex manifold equipped with J a real analytic almost complex structure. The…

We study germs of hypersurfaces $(Y,0)\subset (\mathbb C^{n+1},0)$ that can be described as the image of $\mathscr A$-finite mappings $f:(X,S)\rightarrow (\mathbb C^{n+1},0)$ defined on an ICIS $(X,S)$ of dimension $n$. We extend the…

We survey some recent progress in the study of algebraic varieties X with log terminal singularities, especially, the uni-ruledness of the smooth locus X^0 of X, the fundamental group of X^0 and the automorphisms group on (smooth or…

We characterize embedded $\C^1$ hypersurfaces of $\R^n$ as the only locally closed sets with continuously varying flat tangent cones whose measure-theoretic-multiplicity is at most $m<3/2$. It follows then that any (topological)…

Denote by $H(d_1,d_2,d_3)$ the set of all homogeneous polynomial mappings $F=(f_1,f_2,f_3): \C^3\to\C^3$, such that $\deg f_i=d_i$. We show that if $\gcd(d_i,d_j)\leq 2$ for $1\leq i<j\leq 3$ and $\gcd(d_1,d_2,d_3)=1$, then there is a…

With an assumption on the codimension of the singular locus of a complex hypersurface $D$ in smooth variety $X$, we show that if $\underline{\Omega}^m_D \cong \Omega^m_D$, then $\underline{\Omega}^i_D \cong \Omega^i_D$ for all $0 \leq i…

A differential form vanishing on the tangent space at smooth points of a reduced embedded analytic germ is called conormal. For proving that a conormal one--form of a hypersurface vanishes at its singularities we state a Bertini--type…

In this work, we consider a quasi-homogeneous, corank $1$, finitely determined map germ $f$ from $(\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ to $(\mathbb{C}^3,0)$. We consider the invariants $m(f(D(f))$ and $J$, where $m(f(D(f))$ denotes the multiplicity of the…

Among the set of hypersurfaces of degree $d$ and dimension $\ell$ defined by the vanishing of a homogeneous polynomial with coefficients $\pm 1$, we investigate the probability that a hypersurface contains a rational point as $d$ and $\ell$…

Let $X$ be a smooth hypersurface of dimension $n\geq 1$ and degree $d\geq 3$ in the projective space given as the zero set of a homogeneous form $F$. If $(n,d)\neq (1,3), (2,4)$ it is well known that every automorphism of $X$ extends to an…

Let $Z\subset{\bf P}^{n-1}$ be a hypersurface such that the associated reduced hypersurface $Z_{\rm red}$ has only weighted homogeneous isolated singularities. In the case $Z$ is a reduced curve or $Z_{\rm red}$ has only homogeneous…

A Riemann surface $M$ is said to be $K$-quasiconformally homogeneous if for every two points $p,q \in M$, there exists a $K$-quasiconformal homeomorphism $f \colon M \rightarrow M$ such that $f(p) = q$. In this paper, we show there exists a…

The Milnor number of an isolated hypersurface singularity, defined as the codimension $\mu(f)$ of the ideal generated by the partial derivatives of a power series $f$ that represents locally the hypersurface, is an important topological…

Let $f$ be a homogeneous polynomial with rational coefficients in $d$ variables. We prove several results concerning uniform simultaneous approximation to points on the graph of $f$, as well as on the hypersurface $\{f(x_1,\dots,x_d) =…
