We study those real $\mathcal{C}^\infty$ foliations in complex surfaces whose leaves are holomorphic curves. The main motivation is to try and understand these foliations in neighborhoods of curves: can we expect the space of foliations in…

This paper deals with a family of spatial rational curves that were introduced by Andradas, Recio and Sendra, under the name of hypercircles, as an algorithmic cornerstone tool in the context of improving the rational parametrization…

We study arc graphs and curve graphs for surfaces of infinite topological type. First, we define an arc graph relative to a finite number of (isolated) punctures and prove that it is a connected, uniformly hyperbolic graph of infinite…

We relate the total curvature and the isoperimetric deficit of a curve $\gamma$ in a two-dimensional space of constant curvature with the area enclosed by the evolute of $\gamma$. We provide also a Gauss-Bonnet theorem for a special class…

We define a suitably tame class of singular symplectic curves in 4-manifolds, namely those whose singularities are modeled on complex curve singularities. We study the corresponding symplectic isotopy problem, with a focus on rational…

Let $\Sigma$ be a hyperbolic surface. We study the set of curves on $\Sigma$ of a given type, i.e. in the mapping class group orbit of some fixed but otherwise arbitrary $\gamma_0$. For example, in the particular case that $\Sigma$ is a…

We study the existence of topologically closed complex curves normalized by bordered Riemann surfaces in complex spaces. Our main result is that such curves abound in any noncompact complex space admitting an exhaustion function whose Levi…

Classical theory of Complex Multiplication (CM) shows that all abelian extensions of a complex quadratic field $K$ are generated by the values of appropriate modular functions at the points of finite order of elliptic curves whose…

In this note, we investigate the existence of smooth complete hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space with constant $(n-2)$-curvature and a prescribed asymptotic boundary at infinity. Previously, the existence was known only for a restricted…

We obtain a new bound on the number of two-rich points spanned by an arrangement of low degree algebraic curves in $\mathbb{R}^4$. Specifically, we show that an arrangement of $n$ algebraic curves determines at most $C_\epsilon…

We provide an efficient algorithm to compute the minimum area of a homotopy between two closed plane curves, given that they divide the plane into finite number of regions. For any positive real number $\varepsilon>0$, we construct a closed…

We describe the topology of singular real algebraic curves in a smooth surface. We enumerate and bound in terms of the degree the number of topological types of singular algebraic curves in the real projective plane.

The geometry and topology of complete nonorientable maximal surfaces with lightlike singularities in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space are studied. Some topological congruence formulae for surfaces of this kind are obtained. As a consequence,…

Measuring the similarity of curves is a fundamental problem arising in many application fields. There has been considerable interest in several such measures, both in Euclidean space and in more general setting such as curves on Riemannian…

We consider smooth surfaces $S \subset \Pq$ containing a plane curve $P$ and prove some general result concerning the linear system $|H-P|$. We then look at regular surfaces lying on hypersurfaces of degree $s$ having a plane of…

We build a database of genus 2 curves defined over $\mathbb Q$ which contains all curves with minimal absolute height $h \leq 5$, all curves with moduli height $\mathfrak h \leq 20$, and all curves with extra automorphisms in standard form…

In this paper, we present a new explicit formula for the curvatures of a regular curve with an arbitrary parameter in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, expressed only in terms of its derivatives. We introduce also the notion of…

This thesis reviews the theory of bundle gerbes and then examines the higher dimensional notion of a bundle 2-gerbe. The notion of a bundle 2-gerbe connection and 2-curving are introduced and it is shown that there is a class in…

Some new results on plane F_{q^2}-maximal curves are stated and proved. It is known that the degree d of such curves is upper bounded by q+1 and that d=q+1 if and only if the curve is F_{q^2}-isomorphic to the Hermitian. We show that d\le…

We introduce the separating semigroup of a real algebraic curve of dividing type. The elements of this semigroup record the possible degrees of the covering maps obtained by restricting separating morphisms to the real part of the curve. We…
