We study various classes of real hypersurfaces that are not embeddable into more special hypersurfaces in higher dimension, such as spheres, real algebraic compact strongly pseudoconvex hypersurfaces or compact pseudoconvex hypersurfaces of…
We prove that any smooth rational projective surface over the field of complex numbers has an open covering consisting of 3 subsets isomorphic to affine planes.
In this note, we construct three new infinite families of surfaces of general type with canonical map of degree 2 onto a surface of general type. For one of these families the canonical system has base points.
We identify the moduli space of complex affine surfaces with the moduli space of regular meromorphic connections on Riemann surfaces and show that it satisfies a corresponding universal property. As a consequence, we identify the tangent…
In this work we study analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces in complex algebraic surfaces. First, we show that if this foliation admits chaotic dynamics (i.e. if it does not admit a transverse invariant measure), then the connected components of…
We generalize some results of Coray on closed points on cubic hypersurfaces. We show certain symmetric products of cubic hypersurfaces are stably birational.
We establish an analytic Hasse principle for linear spaces of affine dimension m on a complete intersection over an algebraic field extension K of Q. The number of variables required to do this is no larger than what is known for the…
We present a simple mechanism, which can be randomised, for constructing sparse $3$-uniform hypergraphs with strong expansion properties. These hypergraphs are constructed using Cayley graphs over $\mathbb{Z}_2^t$ and have vertex degree…
In this paper, we study a second order variational problem for locally convex hypersurfaces, which is the affine invariant analogue of the classical Plateau problem for minimal surfaces. We prove existence, regularity and uniqueness results…
We investigate the geometric properties of hyperbolic affine flat, affine minimal surfaces in the equiaffine space $\mathbb{A}^3$. We use Cartan's method of moving frames to compute a complete set of local invariants for such surfaces.…
The moduli space of generalized deformations of a Calabi-Yau hypersurface is computed in terms of the Jacobian ring of the defining polynomial. The fibers of the tangent bundle to this moduli space carry algebra structures, which are…
We study the geometry and cohomology of semiample hypersurfaces in toric varieties. Such hypersurfaces generalize the MPCP-desingularizations of Calabi-Yau ample hypersurfaces in the Batyrev mirror construction. We study the topological cup…
Hypergraph expanders are hypergraphs with surprising, non-intuitive expansion properties. In a recent paper, the first author gave a simple construction, which can be randomized, of $3$-uniform hypergraph expanders with polylogarithmic…
We find explicitly all bi-umbilical foliated semi-symmetric hypersurfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space.
We study the holomorphic extendability of smooth CR maps between real analytic strictly pseudoconvex hypersurfaces in complex affine spaces of different dimensions.
Basic aspects of the equiaffine geometry of level sets are developed systematically. As an application there are constructed families of $2n$-dimensional nondegenerate hypersurfaces ruled by $n$-planes, having equiaffine mean curvature…
Every fibration of a projective hyper-K\"ahler fourfold has fibers which are Abelian surfaces. In case the Abelian surface is a Jacobian of a genus two curve, these have been classified by Markushevich. We study those cases where the…
We introduce and study the equiaffine symmetric {\bf hyperspheres}. For the first step we consider the locally strongly convex ones. In fact, by the idea used by Naitoh, we provide in this paper a direct proof of the complete classification…
We consider flat families of reduced curves on a smooth surface S such that each member C has the same number of singularities of fixed singularity types and the corresponding (locally closed) subscheme H of the Hilbert scheme of S. We are…
We complete the classification of smooth surfaces swept out by a 1-dimensional family of plane curves that do not form a fibration. As a consequence, we characterize manifolds swept out by a 1-dimensional family of hypersurfaces that do not…
