We get sharp degree bound for generic smoothness and connectedness of the space of conics in low degree complete intersections which generalizes the old work about Fano scheme of lines on Hypersurfaces.
We investigate completed interlacing of zeros for pairs of polynomial sequences that fail to interlace by exactly two points. Using a general mixed recurrence relation, we identify a quadratic polynomial whose zeros serve as the two extra…
Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}^{n+c}$ be a nondegenerate smooth projective variety of dimension $n$ defined by quadratic equations. For such varieties, P. Ionescu and F. Russo proved the Hartshorne conjecture on complete intersections, which…
In this paper we show that on a general sextic hypersurface $X\subset \bf P^4$, a rank 2 vector bundle $E$ splits if and only if $h^1(E(n))=0$ for any $n \in \bf Z$. We get thus a characterization of complete intersection curves in $X$
A homemorphism between domains in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$ is quasiconformal, with its intricate analytic and geometric consequences, if the (pointwise) linear dilatation -- a purely metric quantity -- is uniformly bounded. Gehring proved…
The problem of efficiently characterizing degree sequences of simple hypergraphs is a fundamental long-standing open problem in Graph Theory. Several results are known for restricted versions of this problem. This paper adds to the list of…
We characterize the canonical algebras such that for all dimension vectors of homogeneous modules the corresponding module varieties are complete intersections (respectively, normal). We also investigate the sets of common zeros of…
Schemes defined by residual intersections have been extensively studied in the case when they are Cohen-Macaulay, but this is a very restrictive condition. In this paper we make the first study of a class of natural examples far from…
We investigate the viability of defining an intersection product on algebraic cycles on a singular algebraic variety by pushing forward intersection products formed on a resolution of singularities. For varieties with resolutions having a…
Classical definitions of locally complete intersection (l.c.i.) homomorphisms of commutative rings are limited to maps that are essentially of finite type, or flat. The concept introduced in this paper is meaningful for homomorphisms phi :…
Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}^n$ be a general Fano complete intersection of type $(d_1,\dots, d_k)$. If at least one $d_i$ is greater than $2$, we show that $X$ contains rational curves of degree $e \leq n$ with balanced normal bundle. If all…
The intersection problem for additive (extended and non-extended) perfect codes, i.e. which are the possibilities for the number of codewords in the intersection of two additive codes C1 and C2 of the same length, is investigated. Lower and…
We study Fano schemes $F_k(X)$ for complete intersections $X$ in a projective toric variety $Y\subset \mathbb{P}^n$. Our strategy is to decompose $F_k(X)$ into closed subschemes based on the irreducible decomposition of $F_k(Y)$ as studied…
A graded Artinian algebra $A$ has the Weak Lefschetz Property if there exists a linear form $\ell$ such that the multiplication map by $\ell:[A]_i\to [A]_{i+1}$ has maximum rank in every degree. The linear forms satisfying this property…
We give homotopy invariant definitions corresponding to three well known properties of complete intersections, for the ring, the module theory and the endomorphisms of the residue field, and we investigate them for the mod p cochains on a…
Suppose that $\pi \: Y \to X$ is a finite map of normal varieties over a perfect field of characteristic $p > 0$. Previous work of the authors gave a criterion for when Frobenius splittings on $X$ (or more generally any $p^{-e}$-linear map)…
We describe classes of toric varieties of codimension 2 which are either minimally defined by 3 binomial equations over any algebraically closed field, or are set-theoretic complete intersections in exactly one positive characteristic.
Path graphs are intersection graphs of paths in a tree. We start from the characterization of path graphs by Monma and Wei [C.L.~Monma,~and~V.K.~Wei, Intersection Graphs of Paths in a Tree, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 41:2 (1986) 141--181]…
It is a longstanding conjecture that every simple drawing of a complete graph on $n \geq 3$ vertices contains a crossing-free Hamiltonian cycle. We strengthen this conjecture to "there exists a crossing-free Hamiltonian path between each…
We define the notion of a hypercube structure on a functor between two strictly commutative Picard categories which generalizes the notion of a cube structure on a $G_m$-torsor over an abelian scheme. We use this notion to define the…
