Principal curves are defined as parametric curves passing through the "middle" of a probability distribution in R^d. In addition to the original definition based on self-consistency, several points of view have been considered among which a…
By studying $\mathbb{A}^1$-curves on varieties, we propose a geometric approach to strong approximation problem over function fields of complex curves. We prove that strong approximation holds for smooth, low degree affine complete…
In this paper we exploit the phenomenon of two principal half eigenvalues in the context of fully nonlinear Lane-Emden type systems with possibly unbounded coefficients and weights. We show that this gives rise to the existence of two…
Beilinson obtained a formula relating the special value of the L-function of H^2 of a product of modular curves to the regulator of an element of a motivic cohomology group - thus providing evidence for his general conjectures on special…
The cones of divisors and curves defined by various positivity conditions on a smooth projective variety have been the subject of a great deal of work in algebraic geometry, and by now they are quite well understood. However the analogous…
We define refined invariants which "count" nodal curves in sufficiently ample linear systems on surfaces, conjecture that their generating function is multiplicative, and conjecture explicit formulas in the case of K3 and abelian surfaces.…
We show that for any elliptic curve (with j invariant not 0 or 1728) over any field of characteristic different from 2 and 3, there exists an hyperelliptic curve H of genus 5 with two independent maps to the given elliptic curve. We also…
Over an algebraically closed ffeld F of characteristic p>0, the restricted twisted Heisenberg Lie algebras are studied. We use the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence relative to its Heisenberg ideal to compute the trivial cohomology. The…
We consider non-homogeneous media with properties which can be characterized by rapidly oscillated coefficients. For such coefficients we define a notion of two-scale extension, present several ways to construct two-scale extensions,…
We find a closed formula for the number $\operatorname{hyp}(g)$ of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over a finite field $k=\mathbb{F}_q$ of odd characteristic. These numbers $\operatorname{hyp}(g)$ are expressed as a polynomial in $q$ with…
We establish second main theorems for holomorphic curves into a projective subvary $V \subset \mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})$ of dimension $k$, intersecting hypersurfaces in $N$-subgeneral position with respect to $V$ $(N > k)$. Our results…
We classify hyperbolic polynomials in two real variables that admit a transitive action on some component of their hyperbolic level sets. Such surfaces are called special homogeneous surfaces, and they are equipped with a natural Riemannian…
The main goal of this paper is to study some local and global properties of secant varieties of algebraic curves. These results complement our previous work [8] by addressing issues given therein and providing solutions to problems raised…
In this paper we study genus-$4$ curves obtained as double covers of elliptic curves. Firstly we shall give explicit defining equations of such curves with explicit criterion for whether it is nonsingular, and show the irreducibility of the…
Starting from any unital colored PROP $P$, we define a category $P(P)$ of shapes called $P$-propertopes. Presheaves on $P(P)$ are called $P$-propertopic sets. For $0 \leq n \leq \infty$ we define and study $n$-time categorified $P$-algebras…
In this paper we investigate special arrangements of lines in multiprojective spaces. In particular, we characterize codimensional two arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay (ACM) varieties in $\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^1$, called…
We equate dynamical properties (e.g., positive entropy, existence of a periodic curve) of complex projective surface automorphisms with properties of the pull-back actions of such automorphisms on line bundles. We use the properties of the…
Exceptional points of order $n$ (EP$n$s) appear in non-Hermitian systems as points where the eigenvalues and eigenvectors coalesce. They emerge if $2(n-1)$ real constraints are imposed, such that EP2s generically appear in two dimensions…
The van der Geer--van der Vlugt curves form a class of Artin--Schreier coverings of the projective line over finite fields. We provide an explicit formula for their $L$-polynomials in characteristic $2$, expressed in terms of characters of…
Exceptional points and double poles of the S matrix are both characterized by the coalescence of a pair of eigenvalues. In the first case, the coalescence causes a defect of the Hilbert space. In the second case, this is not so as shown in…
