In this paper we prove that, for any $n\ge 3$, there exist infinitely many $r\in \N$ and for each of them a smooth, connected curve $C_r$ in $\P^r$ such that $C_r$ lies on exactly $n$ irreducible components of the Hilbert scheme…

Let C be a smooth projective curve over a discretely valued field K, defined by an affine equation f(x,y)=0. We construct a model of C over the ring of integers of K using a toroidal embedding associated to the Newton polygon of f. We show…

We show that if $D \subset \mathbb P^N$ is obtained from a codimension two local complete intersection $C$ by adding embedded points of multiplicity $\leq 3$, then $D$ is a flat limit of $C$ and isolated points. As applications, we…

We call a subset $K$ of $\mathbb C$ \emph{biholomorphically homogeneous} if for any two points $p,q\in K$ there exists a neighborhood $U$ of $p$ and a biholomorphism $\psi:U\to \psi(U)\subset \mathbb C$ such that $\psi(p)=q$ and $\psi(K\cap…

For $q\leq 3$ smooth plane algebraic curves $\mathcal{C}_i$ having simple normal crossings, if the invariant logarithmic $2$-jet differential bundle associated to $(\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{C}), \sum_{i=1}^q \mathcal{C}_i)$ has a nonzero…

Let G be a n-dimensional Lie group (n>2) with a bi-invariant Riemannian metric. We prove that if a surface of constant Gaussian curvature in G can be expressed as the product of two curves, then it must be flat. In particular, we can…

Let $X$ be a smooth, projective, geometrically connected curve over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and let $G$ be a split semisimple algebraic group over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Its dual group $\hat{G}$ is a split reductive group over $\mathbb{Z}$.…

We study points of moderately low degree on a curve $C$ over a number field, which is embedded on a nice toric surface $S$. Recently, Smith and Vogt related the linear equivalence classes of such points to intersections of $C$ with curves…

Given a split $\mathbb{P}$-functor $F:\mathcal{D}^b(X) \to \mathcal{D}^b(Y)$ between smooth projective varieties, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions, in terms of the Hochschild cohomology of $X$, for it to become spherical on…

We investigate the behaviour of vertices and inflexions on 1-parameter families of curves on smooth surfaces in the 3-space, which include a singular member. In particular, we discuss the context where the curves evolve as sections of a…

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve of genus $g$ and gonality 4. We show that the canonical model of $X$ is contained in a uniquely defined surface, ruled by conics, whose geometry is deeply related to that of $X$. This surface…

Let C be a 2-connected Gorenstein curve either reduced or contained in a smooth algebraic surface and let S be a subcanonical cluster (i.e. a 0-dim scheme such that the space H^0(C, I_S K_C) contains a generically invertible section). Under…

We determine the versal deformation of cones, in the simplest case: cones over hyperelliptic curves of high degree. In particular, we show that for degree $4g+4$, the highest degree for which interesting deformations exist, the number of…

A viable and still unproved conjecture states that, if $X$ is a smooth algebraic surface and $C$ is a smooth algebraic curve in $X$, then $C$ realizes the smallest possible genus amongst all smoothly embedded $2$-manifolds in its homology…

We present some algorithms that provide useful topological information about curves in surfaces. One of the main algorithms computes the geometric intersection number of two properly embedded 1-manifolds $C_1$ and $C_2$ in a compact…

Let T be a general bidegree (2,2) divisor in the product of two projective planes. Recently A.Verra proved that the existence of two conic bundle structures (c.b.s.) on T implies a new counterexample to the Torelli theorem for Prym…

In this work, we prove the vanishing of the two cohomological group of the higher local field. This generalize the well-known propriety of finite field and one dimensional local field. We apply this result to study the arithmetic of curve…

In the present paper, we introduce two-dimensional categorified Hall algebras of smooth curves and smooth surfaces. A categorified Hall algebra is an associative monoidal structure on the stable $\infty$-category…

Let \(X\subset \mathbb{P}^{n+1}\) be a smooth cubic hypersurface, and let \(F(X)\) be the variety of lines on \(X\). We prove the surjectivity of the cylinder maps on the Chow groups of \(F(X)\) and \(X\) if \(X\) contains a one-cycle of…
