For real irreducible algebraic curves of the seventh degree, there are 22 types of singular points of multiplicity six, 174 types of singular points of multiplicity five, and at least 182 types of singular points of multiplicity four. For…
In this paper, we give a complete topological and smooth classification of non-invertible Anosov maps on torus. We show that two non-invertible Anosov maps on torus are topologically conjugate if and only if their corresponding periodic…
We give a complete deformation classification of real Zariski sextics, that is of generic apparent contours of nonsingular real cubic surfaces. As a by-product, we observe a certain "reversion" duality in the set of deformation classes of…
We complete the equisingular deformation classification of irreducible singular plane sextic curves. As a by-product, we also compute the fundamental groups of the complement of all but a few maximizing sextics.
We construct explicit geometric models for and compute the fundamental groups of all plane sextics with simple singularities only and with at least one type $\bold E_8$ singular point. In particular, we discover four new sextics with…
We study complex plane projective sextic curves with simple singularities up to equisingular deformations. It is shown that two such curves are deformation equivalent if and only if the corresponding pairs are diffeomorphic. A way to…
The solution space of differentially rotating polytropes with n=1 has been studied numerically. The existence of three different types of configurations: from spheroids to thick tori, hockey puck-like bodies and spheroids surrounded by a…
In this paper, we consider curves of degree 10 of torus type (2,5), C : f_5(x, y)^2 + f_2(x, y)^5 = 0. Assume that f_2(0, 0) = f_5(0, 0) = 0. Then O = (0, 0) is a singular point of C which is called an inner singularity. In this paper, we…
We study nonnegative (psd) real sextic forms $q(x_0,x_1,x_2)$ that are not sums of squares (sos). Such a form has at most ten real zeros. We give a complete and explicit characterization of all sets $S\subset\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{R})$ with…
We partially prove and partially disprove Oka's conjecture on the fundamental group/Alexander polynomial of an irreducible plane sextic. Among other results, we enumerate all irreducible sextics with simple singularities admitting dihedral…
We present a rigid isotopy classification of irreducible sextic curves in $\mathbb{RP}^2$ which have non-real ordinary double points as their only singularities. Our approach uses periods of K3 surfaces and V. Nikulin's classification of…
We compute the fundamental groups of five maximizing sextics with double singular points only; in four cases, the groups are as expected. The approach used would apply to other sextics as well, given their equations.
We compute the asymptotics of the number of connected branched coverings of a torus as their degree goes to infinity and the ramification type stays fixed. These numbers are equal to the volumes of the moduli spaces of pairs (curve,…
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 X be the moduli space of SL(n,C), SU(n), GL(n,C), or U(n)-valued representations of a rank r free group. We classify the algebraic singular stratification of X. This comes down to showing that the singular locus corresponds exactly to…
We determine the groups which can appear as the normalizer of a maximal torus in a connected 2-compact group. The technique depends on using ideas of Tits to give a novel description of the normalizer of the torus in a connected compact Lie…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an orthogonal group defined over a field of characteristic not 2 to contain a maximal torus of a given type.
In 2006 Masuda and Suh asked if two compact non-singular toric varieties having isomorphic cohomology rings are homeomorphic. In the first part of this paper we discuss this question for topological generalizations of toric varieties,…
Perepechko and Zaidenberg conjectured that the neutral component of the automorphism group of a rigid affine variety is a torus. We prove this conjecture for toric varieties and varieties with a torus action of complexity one. We also…
We study the space of conjugacy classes of subgroups of a compact Lie group G whose identity component is a torus, and consider how various invariants of subgroups behave as sheaves over this space. This feeds in to the author's programme…
