We study hyperplane sections of smooth polarized $K3$-surfaces that split into unions of lines. We describe the dual adjacency graphs of such sections and find sharp upper bounds on their number. In most cases (starting from degree $6$), we…

Cubic spline interpolation on Euclidean space is a standard topic in numerical analysis, with countless applications in science and technology. In several emerging fields, for example computer vision and quantum control, there is a growing…

Oriented closed curves on an orientable surface with boundary are described up to continuous deformation by reduced cyclic words in the generators of the fundamental group and their inverses. By self-intersection number one means the…

We present a method to compute a fitting curve B to a set of data points d0,...,dm lying on a manifold M. That curve is obtained by blending together Euclidean B\'ezier curves obtained on different tangent spaces. The method guarantees…

We study effective versions of unlikely intersections of images of torsion points of elliptic curves on the projective line.

A parallelogram is conformally inscribed in four lines in the plane if it is inscribed in a scaled copy of the configuration of four lines. We describe the geometry of the three-dimensional Euclidean space whose points are the…

An arrangement of pseudocircles is a finite set of oriented closed Jordan curves each two of which cross each other in exactly two points. To describe the combinatorial structure of arrangements on closed orientable surfaces, in (Linhart,…

The characteristic numbers of smooth plane quartics are computed using intersection theory on a component of the moduli space of stable maps. This completes the verification of Zeuthen's prediction of characteristic numbers of smooth plane…

In this study, we define some new types of ruled surfaces called slant ruled surfaces. We give some characterizations for a regular ruled surface to be a slant ruled surface in Euclidean 3- space. We show that if the slant ruled surface is…

We give an arithmetic count of the lines on a smooth cubic surface over an arbitrary field $k$, generalizing the counts that over $\mathbb{C}$ there are $27$ lines, and over $\mathbb{R}$ the number of hyperbolic lines minus the number of…

In this paper we consider the idea of Bertrand curves for curves lying on surfaces and by considering the Darboux frames of them we define these curves as Bertrand D-curves and give the characterizations for these curves. We also find the…

Aligning two partially-overlapped 3D line reconstructions in Euclidean space is challenging, as we need to simultaneously solve correspondences and relative pose between line reconstructions. This paper proposes a neural network based…

The topology of the intersection of three quadrics in Euclidean 6-space is studied using Kollar results. This needs an existence of a line without real points in the complex projectivisation of quadrics. We establish the existence of such a…

We characterize those unions of embedded disjoint circles in the 2-sphere which can be the multiple point set of a generic immersion of the 2-sphere into 3-dimensional space in terms of the interlacement of the given circles. Our result is…

We present an algorithm that computes the girth of the intersection graph of $n$ given line segments in the plane in $O(n^{1.483})$ expected time. This is the first such algorithm with $O(n^{3/2-\varepsilon})$ running time for a positive…

Coordination sequences of periodic and quasiperiodic graphs are analysed. These count the number of points that can be reached from a given point of the graph by a number of steps along its bonds, thus generalising the familiar coordination…

We provide a remarkably simple algorithm to compute all (at most four) common tangents of two disjoint simple polygons. Given each polygon as a read-only array of its corners in cyclic order, the algorithm runs in linear time and constant…

We present a new method for visualizing implicit real algebraic curves inside a bounding box in the $2$-D or $3$-D ambient space based on numerical continuation and critical point methods. The underlying techniques work also for tracing…

We study mapping class group orbits of homotopy and isotopy classes of curves with self-intersections. We exhibit the asymptotics of the number of such orbits of curves with a bounded number of self-intersections, as the complexity of the…

Given a diagram for a trisection of a 4-manifold $X$, we describe the homology and the intersection form of $X$ in terms of the three subgroups of $H_1(\Sigma;\mathbb{Z})$ generated by the three sets of curves and the intersection pairing…
