In this paper we study the tangent space to the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^3$, motivated by Haiman's work on $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^2$ and by a long-standing conjecture of Brian\c{c}on and Iarrobino on the most singular…

Given a collection S of subsets of some set U, and M a subset of U, the set cover problem is to find the smallest subcollection C of S such that M is a subset of the union of the sets in C. While the general problem is NP-hard to solve,…

The affine Hilbert function is a classical algebraic object that has been central, among other tools, to the development of the polynomial method in combinatorics. Owing to its concrete connections with Gr\"obner basis theory, as well as…

Given two elements of a vector space acted on by a reductive group, we ask whether they lie in the same orbit, and if not, whether one lies in the orbit closure of the other. We develop techniques to optimize the orbit and orbit closure…

A `trinomial hypersurface' is a hypersurface that is defined by a single polynomial having 3 non-constant terms in it and no constant term. A `disjoint-term trinomial hypersurface' is a trinomial hypersurface whose defining polynomial has…

The paper considers the Hilbert space $\hat{H}_r$ of real functions summable with the square $L^2(a,b)_r$ on any interval $\{(a,b)_r\}_{r=1}^{\infty}\in \mathbb{R}$. It is shown on the basis of the theorem on zeros of real orthogonal…

Classifying points in high dimensional spaces is a fundamental geometric problem in machine learning. In this paper, we address classifying points in the $d$-dimensional Hilbert polygonal metric. The Hilbert metric is a generalization of…

Borel-fixed ideals play a key role in the study of Hilbert schemes. Indeed each component and each intersection of components of a Hilbert scheme contains at least one Borel-fixed point, i.e. a point corresponding to a subscheme defined by…

We study mirror symmetric pairs of Calabi--Yau manifolds over finite fields. In particular we compute the number of rational points of the manifolds as a function of the complex structure parameters. The data of the number of rational…

We show that every automorphism of the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on a weak Fano or general type surface is natural, i.e. induced by an automorphism of the surface, unless the surface is a product of curves and $n=2$. In the exceptional…

We investigate the expected dimensionality of linear systems with general fat points on certain surfaces using an approach by specialization to elliptic surfaces. For the projectivization of the Atiyah bundle over an elliptic curve with a…

Let $\mathcal{N}\mathcal{F}$ be the class of smooth non-flat curves near the origin and near infinity previously introduced by the second author and let $\gamma\in\mathcal{N}\mathcal{F}$. We show - via a unifying approach relative to the…

In this paper we deal with linear systems of P^3 through fat points. We consider the behavior of these systems under a cubo-cubic Cremona transformation that allows us to produce a class of special systems which we conjecture to be the only…

We establish the equivalence of three notions of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points on weighted projective spaces $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbf{w}}^n$ and derive explicit combinatorial formulas for their enumeration, leveraging Burnside's lemma and gcd…

In this paper we provide, first, a general symbolic algorithm for computing the symmetries of a given rational surface, based on the classical differential invariants of surfaces, i.e. Gauss curvature and mean curvature. In practice, the…

In this manuscript, we give effective methods for computing the zeta function of maximal orders on surfaces.

We show that the Hilbert polynomial of a Calabi-Yau hypersurface $Z$ in a smooth toric variety $M$ associated to a convex polytope $\Delta$ is given by a lattice point count in the polytope boundary $\partial \Delta,$ just as the Hilbert…

Using orbifold Hilbert schemes, we compactify all two-dimensional Hitchin systems corresponding to types A0-tilde, D4-tilde, E6-tilde, E7-tilde, and E8-tilde, thereby obtaining four rational elliptic surfaces with C*-actions. Their singular…
