For suitable subgroups of a finitely generated group, we define the intersection number of one subgroup with another subgroup and show that this number is symmetric. We also give an interpretation of this number.

We consider the Hilbert scheme Hilb^{d+1}(C^d) of (d+1) points in affine d-space C^d (d > 2), which includes the square of any maximal ideal. We describe equations for the most symmetric affine open subscheme of Hilb^{d+1}(C^d), in terms of…

We give a method of counting the number of curves with a given type of singularity in a suitably ample linear series on a smooth surface using punctual Hilbert schemes. The types of singulaties for which our methods suffice include the…

We investigate the Hilbert scheme of points on a smooth threefold. We introduce a notion of broken Gorenstein structure for finite schemes, and show that its existence guarantees smoothness on the Hilbert scheme. Moreover, we conjecture…

In this paper we study the Hilbert scheme, Hilb(P), of equidimensional locally Cohen-Macaulay codimension 2 subschemes, with a special look to surfaces in P^4 and 3-folds in P^5, and the Hilbert scheme stratification H_{c} of constant…

We establish some remarkable properties of the cohomology rings of the Hilbert schemes of n points on a projective surface X, from which one sees to what extent these cohomology rings are (in)dependent of X and n.

In this paper we present the algorithms for calculating the differential geometric properties {t,n,b1,b2,b3,k1,k2,k3,k4} along-with geodesic curvature and geodesic torsion of the transversal intersection curve of four hypersurfaces (given…

We study the existence and the schematic structure of elementary components of the nested Hilbert scheme on a smooth quasi-projective variety. Precisely, we find a new lower bound for the existence of non-smoothable nestings of fat points…

We consider an extremal problem for subsets of high-dimensional spheres that can be thought of as an extension of the classical isoperimetric problem on the sphere. Let $A$ be a subset of the $(m-1)$-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^{m-1}$,…

We investigate the Hilbert scheme of points on curves with n-fold singularities, that is curves that look locally around their singular points as the axis in an affine space. We describe the structure and number of its irreducible…

In a previous paper, a realization of the moduli space of framed torsion-free sheaves on Hirzebruch surfaces in terms of monads was given. We build upon that result to construct ADHM data for the Hilbert scheme of points of the total space…

Belmans, Oberdieck, and Rennemo asked whether natural automorphisms of Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces can be characterized by the fact that they preserve the exceptional divisor of non-reduced subschemes. Sasaki recently published…

We obtain criteria for detecting complete intersections in projective varieties. Motivated by a conjecture of Hartshorne concerning subvarieties of projective spaces, we investigate situations when two-codimensional smooth subvarieties of…

We establish that the intersection number between the horizontal foliations of any two finite-area holomorphic quadratic differentials on an arbitrary Riemann surface is finite. Our main result shows that the intersection number is jointly…

We introduce symmetrizing operators of the polynomial ring $A[x]$ in the varible $x$ over a ring $A$. When $A$ is an algebra over a field $k$ these operators are used to characterize the monic polynomials $F(x)$ of degree $n$ in $A[x]$ such…

This paper studies the Hilbert scheme of a curve on a complete-intersection K-trivial threefold, in the case in which the curve is unobstructed in the ambient variety in which the threefold lives. The basic result is that the obstruction…

We answer an open problem posed by Iarrobino in the '80s: is there an elementary component of the Hilbert scheme of points $\textrm{Hilb}^d(\mathbb{A}^n)$ with dimension less than $(n-1)(d-1)$? We construct an infinite class of such…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field and let $A$ be a finitely generated $k-$algebra. We show that the scheme of n-dimensional representations of $A$ is smooth when $A$ is hereditary and coherent. We deduce from this the smoothness of…

We define a bijection that transforms an alternating sign matrix A with one -1 into a pair (N,E) where N is a (so called) ``neutral'' alternating sign matrix (with one -1) and E is an integer. The bijection preserves the classical…

Consider two paths $\phi,\psi:[0;1]\to [0;1]^2$ in the unit square such that $\phi(0)=(0,0)$, $\phi(1)=(1,1)$, $\psi(0)=(0,1)$ and $\psi(1)=(1,0)$. By continuity of $\phi$ and $\psi$ there is a point of intersection. We prove that from…
