Let n > 2 and let d < (n+1)/2. We prove that for a general hypersurface X of degree d in P^n, all the genus 0 Kontsevich moduli spaces M_{0,n}(X,e) are irreducible, reduced, local complete intersection stacks of the expected dimension.
Let $E$ be a Banach space and, for any positive integer $n$, let ${\cal P}(^nE)$ denote the Banach space of continuous $n$-homogeneous polynomials on $E$. Davie and Gamelin showed that the natural extension mapping from ${\cal P}(^nE)$ to…
We propose the notion of a supercategory as an alternative approach to supermathematics. We show that this setting is rich to carry out many of the basic constructions of supermathematics. We also prove generalizations of a number of…
We prove the existence theorem for basic elements in the quasi-projective case, extending results of Eisenbud-Evans and Bruns from the affine case. We give several geometric applications. For example, we show that every local complete…
It is shown that in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, the generic linkage of an ideal $I$ is a deformation of the arbitrary linkage of $I$. This fact does not need $I$ to be a Cohen-Macaulay ideal. The same holds for $s$-residual intersections…
Let G be a compact, connected Lie group, acting smoothly on a manifold M. Goresky-Kottwitz-MacPherson described a small Cartan model for the equivariant cohomology of M, quasi-isomorphic to the standard Cartan complex of equivariant…
We construct an analog of the intrinsic normal cone of Behrend-Fantechi in the equivariant motivic stable homotopy category over a base-scheme B and construct a fundament class in E-cohomology for any cohomology theory E in SH(B). For…
We give a complete classification, up to isometric isomorphism and scaling, of $4$-dimensional metric Lie algebras $(\mathfrak{g},\langle \cdot,\cdot \rangle)$ that admit a non-zero parallel skew-symmetric endomorphism. In particular, we…
In this paper we construct a subclass of the composite access structure introduced by Mart\'inez et al. based on schemes realizing the structure given by the set of codewords of minimal support of linear codes. This class enlarges the…
This is a continuation of "Rational curves on hypersurfaces of low degree", math.AG/0203088. We prove that if d^2+d+1 < n and d > 2, then for a general hypersurface X_d in P^n of degree d, for each degree e the space of rational curves of…
In this expository paper we present short simple proofs of Conway-Gordon-Sachs' theorem on intrinsic linking in three-dimensional space, as well as van Kampen-Flores' and Ummel's theorems on intrinsic intersections. The latter are related…
The fact that minimal surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space admit natural parameters implies that any minimal surface is determined uniquely up to a motion by two curvature functions, satisfying a system of two PDE's (the system…
Given a central extension of Lie groups, we study the classification problem of lifting the structure group together with a given connection. For reductive structure groups we introduce a new connective structure on the lifting gerbe…
Let S be a K3 surface and S^[n] the Hilbert scheme of length n subschemes of S. Over the cartesian square of S^[n] there exists a natural reflexive rank 2n-2 coherent sheaf E, which is locally free away from the diagonal. The fiber of E,…
A tetrahedral curve is a space curve whose defining ideal is an intersection of powers of monomial prime ideals of height two. It is supported on a tetrahedral configuration of lines. Schwartau described when certain such curves are ACM,…
Intersection cohomology is a way to enhance classical cohomology, allowing us to use a famous result called Poincar\'e duality on a large class of spaces known as stratified pseudomanifolds. There is a theoretically powerful way to arrive…
One of the earliest results in enumerative combinatorial geometry is the following theorem of de Bruijn and Erd\H{o}s: Every set of points $E$ in a projective plane determines at least $|E|$ lines, unless all the points are contained in a…
This paper investigates the relationship between a system of differential equations and the underlying geometry associated with it. The geometry of a surface determines shortest paths, or geodesics connecting nearby points, which are…
We compute the mapping class group-valued monodromy of any sufficiently ample linear system on any smooth simply connected projective surface, identifying this with the r-spin mapping class group associated to a maximal root of the adjoint…
A vertex $v$ of a 2-connected cubic graph $G$ is $\lambda$-matchable if $G$ has a spanning subgraph in which $v$ has degree three whereas every other vertex has degree one, and we let $\lambda(G)$ denote the number of such vertices.…
