In this paper, we characterize the polynomiality of surfaces of revolution by means of the polynomiality of an associated plane curve. In addition, if the surface of revolution is polynomial, we provide formulas for computing a polynomial…
In this paper is studied the behavior of lines of curvature near umbilic points that appear generically on surfaces depending on two parameters.
For an irreducible conic $\mathcal C$ in a Desarguesian plane of odd square order, estimating the number of points from a Baer subplane which are external to $\mathcal C$ is a natural problem. In this paper, a complete list of possibilities…
We explain a classical construction of a del Pezzo surface of degree d = 4 or 5 as a smooth order two congruence of lines in 3-space whose focal surface is a quartic surface $X_{20-d}$ with 20-d ordinary double points. We also show that…
We consider ruled surfaces with finite multiplicity. We study behaviors of the striction curves and the singularities of the ruled surfaces. We also give geometric meanings of invariants related to the ruled surfaces.
Our research is motivated by recent work of Cook II, Harbourne, Migliore, and Nagel on configurations of points in the projective plane with properties that are unexpected from the point of view of the postulation theory. In this note, we…
In the present paper, we study surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^4$. We define special principal parameters, which we call canonical, on each surface without minimal points, and prove that the surface admits (at…
The moduli space of smooth real plane quartic curves consists of six connected components. We prove that each of these components admits a real hyperbolic structure. These connected components correspond to the six real forms of a certain…
If $S$ is a quintic surface in $\mathbb P^3$ with singular set $15$ $3$-divisible ordinary cusps, then there is a Galois triple cover $\phi:X\to S$ branched only at the cusps such that $p_g(X)=4,$ $q(X)=0,$ $K_X^2=15$ and $\phi$ is the…
We prove that a smooth surface, non of general type, in projective four-space, which lies on a quartic hypersurface with isolated singularities has degree at most 27 (in fact we prove a slightly more general result).
In [BN] the authors construct a special complex of degree 20 over M, which for an open three dimensional set parametrizes smooth complex surfaces of degree four invariant which are Heisenberg invariant and each member of the family contains…
We examine quadratic surfaces in 3-space that are tangent to nine given figures. These figures can be points, lines, planes or quadrics. The numbers of tangent quadrics were determined by Hermann Schubert in 1879. We study the associated…

Consider a point on a convex surface in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \ge 2$ and a plane of support $\Pi$ to the surface at this point. Draw a plane parallel to $\Pi$ cutting a part of the surface. We study the limiting behavior of this part of…
Over the complex numbers, there are 92 plane conics meeting 8 general lines in projective 3-space. Using the Euler class and local degree from motivic homotopy theory, we give an enriched version of this result over any perfect field. This…

We construct a hypersurface of degree 5 in projective space $\PP^8(\CC)$ which contains exactly 23436 ordinary nodes and no further singularities. This limits the maximum number $\mu_{8}(5)$ of ordinary nodes a hyperquintic in $\PP^8(\CC)$…
Let k be a field of characteristic other than 2,3. We prove that there are no geometrically smooth quartic surfaces in IP^3 with more than 64 lines. As a key step, we derive the sharp bound that any line meets at most 20 other lines on a…
