The paper considers the Hilbert space $\hat{H}_r$ of real functions summable with the square $L^2(a,b)_r$ on any interval $\{(a,b)_r\}_{r=1}^{\infty}\in \mathbb{R}$. It is shown on the basis of the theorem on zeros of real orthogonal…

We compare and contrast results of E. Davis, of A. Bigatti, A.V. Geramita and the author, and of J. Ahn and the author. The underlying idea is that certain numerical conditions on the Hilbert function of a finite set of points in projective…

Given positive integers $m_1, m_2, ..., m_n$, and $n$ general points $p_i$ of ${\bf CP}^2$, bounds are given for the least degree $t$ among plane curves passing through each point $p_i$ with multiplicity at least $m_i$, and for the least…

Our results concern minimal graded free resolutions of fat point ideals for points in a hyperplane. Suppose, for example, that I(m,d) is the ideal defining r given points of multiplicity m in the projective space P^d. Assume that the given…

Here we compute Hilbert-Kunz functions of any nontrivial ruled surface over ${\bf P}^1_k$, with respect to all ample line bundles on it.

Let $Z \subseteq \proj{n}$ be a fat points scheme, and let $d(Z)$ be the minimum distance of the linear code constructed from $Z$. We show that $d(Z)$ imposes constraints (i.e., upper bounds) on some specific shifts in the graded minimal…

Let $F$ be a line bundle on the blow-up $X$ of $P^2$ at $r$ general points $p_1, ..., p_r$ and let $L$ be the pullback to $X$ of the line bundle coming from a line on $P^2$. Under reasonable hypotheses that are conjectured always to hold if…

Let $H$ be a Hilbert space of entire functions. Let $H'$ be the space of the functions $f(z)/\prod_i(z-z_i)$ where $f$ belongs to $H$ and vanishes at $n$ given complex points $z_i$. We compute a suitable $E$ function for $H'$ when one is…

Let X be a closed subscheme and let HF(X,-) and hp(X,-) denote, respectively, the Hilbert function and the Hilbert polynomial of X. We say that X has bipolynomial Hilbert function if HF(X,d)=min{hp(P^n,d),hp(X,d)} for every non-negative…

We study Hilbert functions, Lefschetz properties, and Jordan type of Artinian Gorenstein algebras associated to Perazzo hypersurfaces in projective space. The main focus lies on Perazzo threefolds, for which we prove that the Hilbert…

We study the Hilbert series of a family of ideals J_\phi generated by powers of linear forms in k[x_1,...,x_n]. Using the results of Emsalem-Iarrobino, we formulate this as a question about fatpoints in P^{n-1}. In the three variable case…

The Hilbert-Samuel function and the multiplicity function are fundamental locally defined invariants on Noetherian schemes. They have been playing an important role in desingularization for many years. Bennett studied upper semicontinuity…

The polynomial method has been used recently to obtain many striking results in combinatorial geometry. In this paper, we use affine Hilbert functions to obtain an estimation theorem in finite field geometry. The most natural way to state…

We prove that every continuous function on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space X can be uniformly approximated by smooth functions with no critical points. This kind of result can be regarded as a sort of very strong approximate…

Let X be a zero-dimensional scheme in P1 \times P1. Then X has a minimal free resolution of length 2 if and only if X is ACM. In this paper we determine a class of reduced schemes whose resolutions, similarly to the ACM case, can be…

Let $H$ be a Hilbert space and $(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mu)$ a probability space. A Hilbert point in $L^p(\Omega; H)$ is a nontrivial function $\varphi$ such that $\|\varphi\|_p \leq \|\varphi+f\|_p$ whenever $\langle f, \varphi \rangle = 0$.…

The problem to find an upper bound for the regularity index of fat points has been dealt with by many authors. In this paper we give a lower bound for the regularity index of fat points. It is useful for determining the regularity index.

Convex functionals are ubiquitous in applied analysis, appearing as value functions, risk measures, super-hedging prices, and loss functionals in machine learning. In many applications, however, the functional is only observed through…

We prove invariant of the regularity index of fat points under changes of the linear subspace containing the support of the fat points. Then we show that Segre's bound is attained by any set of s non-degenerate equimultiple fat points in…

In his unpublished notes on fat bundles, W. Ziller poses a compelling question: given a fat principal $G$-bundle $(P, g) \rightarrow (B, h)$ with $\dim G = 3$, and $g$ representing a Riemannian submersion metric ensuring that the $G$-orbits…
