We show that the method of moving quadrics for implicitizing surfaces in P^3 applies in certain cases where base points are present. However, if the ideal defined by the parametrization is saturated, then this method rarely applies.…

In this article, we prove necessary conditions for Hibi rings to satisfy Green-Lazarsfeld property $N_p$ for $p=2$ and $3$. We also show that if a Hibi ring satisfies property $N_4$, then it is a polynomial ring or it has a linear…

We connect Veronese embeddings to splitting varieties of cup products. We then give an algorithm for constructing splitting varieties for cup products with $\mathbb Z/n$ coefficients, with an explicit calculation for $n=3$. An application…

For an algebraic set $X$ (union of varieties) embedded in projective space, we say that $X$ satisfies property $\textbf{N}_{d,p}$, $(d\ge 2)$ if the $i$-th syzygies of the homogeneous coordinate ring are generated by elements of degree $<…

We prove that the problem of deciding whether a 2- or 3-dimensional simplicial complex embeds into $\mathbb{R}^3$ is NP-hard. Our construction also shows that deciding whether a 3-manifold with boundary tori admits an $\mathbb{S}^{3}$…

We prove that every open Riemann surface admits a proper embedding into $\mathbb{R}^4$ by harmonic functions. This reduces by one the previously known embedding dimension in this framework, dating back to a theorem by Greene and Wu from…

We characterize $d$-uple Veronese embeddings of finite-dimensional projective spaces. The easiest non-trivial instance of our theorem is the embedding of the projective plane in 5-dimensional projective space, a result obtained in 1901 by…

Given a 1-parameter family of 1-forms $\g(t)= \g_0+t\g_1+...+t^n\g_n$, consider the condition $d\g(t)\wedge\g(t)=0$ (of integrability for the annihilated by $\g(t)$ distribution $w(t)$). We prove that in order that this condition is…

Vinogradov's three primes theorem indicates that, for every sufficiently large odd integer $N$, the equation $N=p_1+p_2+p_3$ is solvable in prime variables $p_1,p_2,p_3$. In this paper, it is proved that Vinogradov's three primes theorem…

Every prism manifold can be parametrized by a pair of relatively prime integers $p>1$ and $q$. In our earlier papers, we determined a complete list of prism manifolds $P(p, q)$ that can be realized by positive integral surgeries on knots in…

In this paper, we investigate linear systems on hyperelliptic varieties. We prove analogues of well-known theorems on abelian varieties, like Lefschetz's embedding theorem and higher k-jet embedding theorems. Syzygy or $N_p$-properties are…

Let V_n be the Segre embedding of (P^1) x ... X (P^1) (n times). We prove that the higher secant varieties, \sigma_s(V_n), always have the expected dimension, except for \sigma_3(V_4), which is of dimension 1 less than expected.

We show that every (possibly unbounded) convex polygon $P$ in $R^2$ with $m$ edges can be represented by inequalities $p_1 \ge 0,...,p_n \ge 0,$ where the $p_i$'s are products of at most $k$ affine functions each vanishing on an edge of $P$…

We derive "numerical" criteria for the existence of embeddings of representations of finite dimensional algebras.

We show that, for a closed orientable n-manifold, with n not congruent to 3 modulo 4, the existence of a CR-regular embedding into complex (n-1)-space ensures the existence of a totally real embedding into complex n-space. This implies that…

It is shown that any smooth closed orientable manifold of dimension $2k + 1$, $k \geq 2$, admits a smooth polynomially convex embedding into $\mathbb C^{3k}$. This improves by $1$ the previously known lower bound of $3k+1$ on the possible…

We prove that for every relatively prime pair of integers $(d,r)$ with $r>0$, there exists an exceptional pair $({\mathcal O},V)$ on any del Pezzo surface of degree 4, such that $V$ is a bundle of rank $r$ and degree $d$. As an application,…

In this paper, we prove that a finitely embedded $R$-module $M$ is Artinian if and only if for every prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ of $R$ with $(0:_RM)\subseteq \mathfrak{p}$, there exists a submodule $N^\mathfrak{p}$ of $M$ such that…

We consider the contractibility of Vietoris-Rips complexes of dense subsets of $(\mathbb{R}^n,\ell_1)$ with sufficiently large scales. This is motivated by a question by Matthew Zaremsky regarding whether for each $n$ natural there is a…

We sharpen earlier work on the pro-$p$ completions of orientable $PD_3$-groups. There are four cases, and we give examples of aspherical 3-manifolds representing each case. In three of the four cases the new results are best possible. We…
