We give a computable lower bound on the distance between two distinct periods of a given quartic surface defined over the algebraic numbers. The main ingredient is the determination of height bounds on components of the Noether--Lefschetz…
Extends previous work on a quintic-solving algorithm to equations of the eighth-degree.
Let M be a smooth 4-manifold which admits a genus g Lefschetz fibration over D^2 or S^2. We develop a technique to compute the signature of M using the global monodromy of this fibration.
Generalized eigenvalue problems involving a singular pencil may be very challenging to solve, both with respect to accuracy and efficiency. While Part I presented a rank-completing addition to a singular pencil, we now develop two…
In this study, a collocation method based on the Fibonacci operational matrix is proposed to solve generalized pantograph equations with linear functional arguments. Some illustrative examples are given to verify the efficiency and…
We construct universal Lefschetz fibrations, defined in analogy with classical universal bundles. We also introduce the cobordism groups of Lefschetz fibrations, and we see how these groups are quotients of the singular bordism groups via…
Presented paper describes the method for finding the intersection of class space rational Bezier curves. The problem curve/curve intersection belongs among basic geometric problems and the aim of this article is to describe the new…
We show that every Stein or Weinstein domain may be presented (up to deformation) as a Lefschetz fibration over the disk. The proof is an application of Donaldson's quantitative transversality techniques.
The purpose of this note is to report, in narrative rather than rigorous style, about the nice geometry of $6$-division points on the Fermat cubic $F$ and various conics naturally attached to them. Most facts presented here were derived by…
Symplectic four-manifolds give rise to Lefschetz fibrations, which are determined by monodromy representations of free groups in mapping class groups. We study the topology of Lefschetz fibrations by analysing the action of the monodromy on…
This article discusses some important applications of the quadratic function with the aim of highlighting the importance of cuadr\'aticas.- forms are also intended to show how a simple function covers virtually all areas of knowledge are…
We explicitly produce symplectic genus-3 Lefschetz pencils (with base points), whose total spaces are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic to rational surfaces CP^2 # p (-CP^2) for p= 7, 8, 9. We then give a new construction of an infinite…
This paper presents the classification of a general quadric into an axisymmetric quadric (AQ) and the solution to the problem of the proximity of a given point to an AQ. The problem of proximity in $R^3$ is reduced to the same in $R^2$,…
Purpose of the Conference article, intended for a wider audience, is to introduce concepts and techniques used by Bronislaw Wajnryb and the author in order to show the diffeomorphism of certain elementary algebraic surfaces, called ABC…
We classify fibrations by integral plane projective rational quartic curves whose generic fibre is regular but admits a non-smooth point that is a canonical divisor. These fibrations can only exist in characteristic two. The geometric…
This paper provides a new simple proof of Hesse's theorem in projective geometry for any dimension.
The usual Cauchy matrix approach starts from a known plain wave factor vector $r$ and known dressed Cauchy matrix $M$. In this paper we start from a matrix equation set with undetermined $r$ and $M$. From the starting equation set we can…
The classical quadratic formula and some of its lesser known variants for solving the quadratic equation are reviewed. Then, a new formula for the roots of a quadratic polynomial is presented.
Quadratic surfaces gain more and more attention among the Geometric Algebra community and some frameworks were proposed in order to represent, transform, and intersect these quadratic surfaces. As far as the authors know, none of these…
A general introduction to lattice QCD suitable for graduate students in experimental and theoretical particle physics. Aimed at those who want to know how lattice calculations are done, and what the pitfalls are, without having to do the…
