We compute log canonical thresholds of reduced plane curves of degree $d$ at points of multiplicity $d-1$. As a consequence, we describe all possible values of log canonical threshold that are less than $2/(d-1)$ for reduced plane curves of…
We prove that there exists a>0 such that for any integer d>2 and any topological types S_1,...,S_n of plane curve singularities, satisfying $\mu(S_1)+...+\mu(S_n) \leq ad^2$, there exists a reduced irreducible plane curve of degree d with…
Let $G$ be a subgroup of the three dimensional projective group $\mathrm{PGL}(3,q)$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of order $q$, viewed as a subgroup of $\mathrm{PGL}(3,K)$ where $K$ is an algebraic closure of $\mathbb{F}_q$.…
Let $f=0$ be a plane algebraic curve of degree $d>1$ with an isolated singular point at the origin of the complex plane. We show that the Milnor number $\mu_0(f)$ is less than or equal to $(d-1)^2-\left[\frac{d}{2}\right]$, unless $f=0$ is…
We prove that the monodromy group of the inflection points of plane curves of degree $d$ is the symmetric group $\mathbb S_{3d(d-2)}$ for $d\geq 4$ and in the case $d=3$ this group is the group of the projective transformations of $\mathbb…
We show that for any connected graph $G$ with maximum degree $d\ge3$, the spectral gap from $0$ with respect to the adjacency matrix is at most $\sqrt{d-1}$, with equality if and only if $G$ is the incidence graph of a finite projective…
Let N_d be the number of degree d, nodal, rational plane curves through 3d-1 points in the complex projective plane. The number of degree d>=3, nodal, elliptic plane curves with a fixed (general) j-invariant through 3d-1 points is found to…
We prove that if Y is a hypersurface of degree d in P^n with isolated singularities, then the log canonical threshold of (P^n,Y) is at least min{n/d,1}. Moreover, if d is at least n+1, then we have equality if and only if Y is the…
Let $G$ be a connected (non-complete) $d$-regular graph with $d\geq3$. Let $c(G-S)$ denote the number of components of $G-S$ for any cut $S$ of $G$. The toughness $t(G)$ of $G$ is defined as $\min\left\{\frac{|S|}{c(G-S)}\right\}$, where…
It is well known since Noether that the gonality of a smooth plane curve of degree d>3 is d-1. Given a k-dimensional complex projective variety X, the most natural extension of gonality is probably the degree of irrationality, that is the…
Below we consider the evolutes of plane real-algebraic curves and discuss some of their complex and real-algebraic properties. In particular, for a given degree $d\ge 2$, we provide lower bounds for the following four numerical invariants:…
In order to study projections of smooth curves, we introduce multifiltrations obtained by combining flags of osculating spaces. We classify all configurations of singularities occurring for a projection of a smooth curve embedded by a…
In a previous paper, we classified and constructed all rational plane curves of type (d,d-2). In this paper, we generalize these results to irreducible plane curves of type (d,d-2) with positive genus.
Recently, the first author classified finite groups obtained as automorphism groups of smooth plane curves of degree $d \ge 4$ into five types. He gave an upper bound of the order of the automorphism group for each types. For one of them,…
Let $C$ be a projective plane curve of degree $d$ whose singularities are all isolated. Suppose $C$ is not concurrent lines. P{\l}oski proved that the Milnor number of an isolated singlar point of $C$ is less than or equal to…
We prove a lower bound theorem for the number of $k$-faces ($1\le k\le d-2$) in a $d$-dimensional polytope $P$ (or $d$-polytope) with up to $3d-1$ vertices. Previous lower bound theorems for $d$-polytopes with few vertices concern those…
We investigate quadrature rules for measures supported on real algebraic and rational curves, focusing on the {odd-degree} case \(2s-1\). Adopting an optimization viewpoint, we minimize suitable penalty functions over the space of…
Let $S$ be a smooth complex minimal surface of general type with $p_g:=h^0(K_S)\ge 4$ whose canonical map is generically finite of odd degree $d>1$ onto a surface $\Sigma$. We assume that the general canonical curve of $S$ is smooth and…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the real plane contained in an algebraic curve $C$ of degree $d$. We prove that the number of distinct distances determined by $P$ is at least $c_d n^{4/3}$, unless $C$ contains a line or a circle. We also…
We study the threshold between avoidable and unavoidable repetitions in infinite balanced sequences over finite alphabets. The conjecture stated by Rampersad, Shallit and Vandomme says that the minimal critical exponent of balanced…
