We formulate a refined theory of linear systems, using the methods of a previous paper, "A Theory of Branches for Algebraic Curves", and use it to give a geometric interpretation of the genus of an algebraic curve. Using principles of…
We introduce a conjecture that we call the {\it Two Hyperplane Conjecture}, saying that an isoperimetric surface that divides a convex body in half by volume is trapped between parallel hyperplanes. The conjecture is motivated by an…
In this paper we provide an alternative reduction theory for real, binary forms with no real roots. Our approach is completely geometric, making use of the notion of hyperbolic center of mass in the upper half-plane. It appears that our…
We present an algorithm for detecting basepoints of linear series of curves in the plane. Moreover, we give an algorithm for constructing a linear series of curves in the plane for given basepoints. The underlying method of these algorithms…
In this paper we introduce the notion of rational Hausdorff divisor, we analyze the dimension and irreducibility of its associated linear system of curves, and we prove that all irreducible real curves belonging to the linear system are…
Browning and Vishe used the Hardy-Littlewood circle method to show the moduli space of rational curves on smooth hypersurfaces of low degree is irreducible and of the expected dimension. We reinterpret the circle method geometrically and…
In this paper we study decay of correlations and limit theorems for generalized baker's transformations. Our examples are piecewise non-uniformly hyperbolic maps on the unit square that posses two spatially separated lines of indifferent…
The present paper is related to a conjecture made by Green and Lazarsfeld concerning 1-linear syzygies of curves embedded by complete linear systems of sufficiently large degrees. Given a smooth, irreducible, complex, projective curve $X$,…
In this paper, we show the existence of non-trivial solutions to very general elliptic systems with critical non-linearities in the sense of embeddings in Orlicz-Sobolev spaces. This allows to consider non-linearities which do not have…
For an arrangement of $n$ pseudolines in the real projective plane let us denote by $t_i$ the number of vertices incident to $i$ lines. We obtain a linear on $t_i$ inequality similar to the Hirzebruch one, but with an elementary proof. We…
In this paper, we establish Liouville type results for semilinear subelliptic systems associated with the sub-Laplacian on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ involving two different kinds of general nonlinearities. The main technique of…
We give a criterion when a planar tree-like curve, i.e. a generic immersed plane curve each double point of which cuts it into two disjoint parts, can be send by a diffeomorphism of the plane onto a curve with no inflection points. We also…
We prove an almost sure invariance principle that is valid for general classes of nonuniformly expanding and nonuniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems. Discrete time systems and flows are covered by this result. In particular, the result…
Let S be a smooth algebraic surface satisfying the following property: H^i(\oc_S(C))=0 (i=1,2) for any irreducible and reduced curve C of S. The aim of this paper is to provide a characterization of special linear systems on S which are…
We regard the Cauchy problem for a particular Whitham-Boussinesq system modelling surface waves of an inviscid incompressible fluid layer. We are interested in well-posedness at a very low level of regularity. We derive dispersive and…
We study simple Osserman limit linear series (that is, Osserman limit linear series having a simple basis) on curves of compact type with three irreducible components. For compact type curves with two components, every exact limit linear…
We prove that the integral points are potentially Zariski dense in the complement of a reduced effective singular anticanonical divisor in a smooth del Pezzo surface, with the exception of $\mathbb{P}^2$ minus three concurrent lines (for…
In this paper we develop a new explicit method to studying rational points near manifolds and obtain optimal lower bounds on the number of rational points of bounded height lying at a given distance from an arbitrary non-degenerate curve.…
The Hartshorne--Hirschowitz theorem says that a generic union of lines in $\mathbb{P}^n$, $(n\geq 3)$, has good postulation. The proof of Hartshorne and Hirschowitz in the initial case $\mathbb{P}^3$ is difficult and so long, which is…
In this paper we consider linear systems of $\mathbb{P}^2$ with all but one of the base points of multiplicity 5. We give an explicit way to evaluate the dimensions of such systems.
