Recent classification of $\frac{3}{2}$-transitive permutation groups leaves us with three infinite families of groups which are neither $2$-transitive, nor Frobenius, nor one-dimensional affine. The groups of the first two families…

In this paper we examine different problems regarding complete intersection varieties of high degree in a complex projective space. First we show how one can deduce hyperbolicity for generic complete intersection of high multidegree and…

The arithmetic rank of an ideal in a polynomial ring over an algebraically closed field is the smallest number of equations needed to define its vanishing locus set-theoretically. We determine the arithmetic rank of the generic $m$-residual…

We introduce a class of Stanley-Reisner ideals called generalized complete intersection, which is characterized by the property that all the residue class rings of powers of the ideal have FLC. We also give a combinatorial characterization…

Let X be a very general complete intersection in complex projective space and we denote by $F_r(X)$ the variety of r-planes in X, for $r\geq 1$. We show that the Picard number of $F_r(X)$ is 1, as soon as $\dim F_r(X)\geq 2$, except when X…

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let I=(f_1,...,f_n) be a homogeneous R_+-primary ideal in R:=K[X,Y,Z]. If the corresponding syzygy bundle Syz(f_1,...,f_n) on the projective plane is semistable, we show that…

We construct and describe the basic properties of a family of semifields in characteristic $2.$ The construction relies on the properties of projective polynomials over finite fields. We start by associating non-associative products to each…

A graph is closed when its vertices have a labeling by [n] with a certain property first discovered in the study of binomial edge ideals. In this article, we explore various aspects of closed graphs, including the number of closed labelings…

Any smooth projective variety contains many complete intersection subvarieties with ample cotangent bundles, of each dimension up to half its own dimension.

Extending a notion defined for surjective maps by Blanco, Majadas, and Rodicio, we introduce and study a class of homomorphisms of commutative noetherian rings, which strictly contains the class of locally complete intersection…

The notion of symmetry in polynomial rings with several indeterminates is generalized to polynomial rings over finite fields. Families of extensions of the projective line over a finite field of constants possessing this property are…

We show that a Gorenstein subcanonical codimension 3 subscheme Z in X = P^N, N > 3, can be realized as the locus along which two Lagrangian subbundles of a twisted orthogonal bundle meet degenerately, and conversely. We extend this result…

In recent work of T. Cassidy and the author, a notion of complete intersection was defined for (non-commutative) regular skew polynomial rings, defining it using both algebraic and geometric tools, where the commutative definition is a…

We prove a numerical characterization of $\mathbb{P}^n$ for varieties with at worst isolated local complete intersection quotient singularities. In dimension three, we prove such a numerical characterization of $\mathbb{P}^3$ for normal…

In this paper we study duality for evaluation codes on intersections of d hypersurfaces with given d-dimensional Newton polytopes, so called toric complete intersection codes. In particular, we give a condition for such a code to be…

We study a certain two-parameter family of non-standard graded complete intersections $A(m,n)$. In case $n=2$, we show that $A(m,2)$ has the strong Lefschetz property and the complex Hodge-Riemann property if and only if $m$ is even. This…

In this paper we provide asymptotic upper bounds on the complexity in two (closely related) situations. We confirm for the total doubling coverings and not only for the chains the expected bounds of the form $$ \kappa({\mathcal U}) \le…

It is easy to imagine that a subvariety of a vector bundle, whose intersection with every fibre is a vector subspace of constant dimension, must necessarily be a sub-bundle. We give two examples to show that this is not true, and several…

Fixed point subalgebras of finite dimensional factor algebras of algebras of polynomials in n indeterminates over the finite field $\mathbb F_2$ (with respect to all $\mathbb F_2$-algebra automorphisms) are fully described.

It is known that the variety of pairs of n x n commuting upper triangular matrices isn't a complete intersection for infinitely many values of n; we show that there exists m such that this happens if and only if n > m. We also show that m <…
