In this paper we study global properties of the Wigner caustic of parameterized closed planar curves. We find new results on its geometry and singular points. In particular, we consider the Wigner caustic of rosettes, i.e. regular closed…

The Centre Symmetry Set of a planar curve $M$ is the envelope of affine chords of $M$, i.e. the lines joining points on $M$ with parallel tangent lines. In this paper we study global geometrical properties of this set including the number…

We find a geometrical method of analysing the singularities of a plane nodal curve. The main results will be used in a forthcoming paper on geometric Plucker formulas for such curves. Plane nodal curves, that is plane curves having at most…

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…

Consider a smooth projective curve and a given embedding into projective space via a sufficiently positive line bundle. We can form the secant variety of $k$-planes through the curve. These are singular varieties, with each secant variety…

We study linear series on a general curve of genus g, whose images are exceptional with respect to their secant planes. Each such exceptional secant plane is algebraically encoded by an included linear series, whose number of base points…

In recent years, the equations defining secant varieties and their syzygies have attracted considerable attention. The purpose of the present paper is to conduct a thorough study on secant varieties of curves by settling several conjectures…

We study linear series on a general curve of genus $g$, whose images are exceptional with regard to their secant planes. Working in the framework of an extension of Brill-Noether theory to pairs of linear series, we prove that a general…

Near a singular point of a surface or a curve, geometric invariants diverge in general, and the orders of diverge, in particular the boundedness about these invariants represent geometry of the surface and the curve. In this paper, we study…

The Wigner caustic and the Centre Symmetry Set of a closed smooth planar curve are known singular sets which generically admit only cusp singularities. Applications of these objects in semi-classical quantum physics, in chaos theory, in…

It is well established that a general pair of twisted cubic curves in complex projective space has ten common secant lines. As an initial investigation, we show that the monodromy group of the ten common secant lines over the complex…

For a smooth projective curve, the cycles of subordinate or, more generally, secant divisors to a given linear series are among some of the most studied objects in classical enumerative geometry. We consider the intersection of two such…

Given a planar graph derived from a spherical, euclidean or hyperbolic tessellation, one can define a discrete curvature by combinatorial properties, which after embedding the graph in a compact 2d-manifold, becomes the Gaussian curvature.

We completely classify all plane curves of degree at most 30 with a unique cuspidal (locally unibranch) singular point and rational normalization in terms of the Newton pairs parameterizing the cusp. We distinguish between prime and…

Inside the symmetric product of a very general curve, we consider the codimension-one subvarieties of symmetric tuples of points imposing exceptional secant conditions on linear series on the curve of fixed degree and dimension. We compute…

The local Lipschitz property is shown for the graph avoiding multiple point intersection with lines directed in a given cone. The assumption is much stronger than those of Marstrand's well-known theorem, but the conclusion is much stronger…

We show that the secant variety of a linearly normal smooth curve of degree at least 2g+3 is arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay, and we use this information to study the graded Betti numbers of the secant variety.

It is well known that the Gauss map for a complex plane curve is birational, whereas the Gauss map in positive characteristic is not always birational. Let $q$ be a power of a prime integer. We study a certain plane curve of degree…

Woess \cite{Woess98} introduced a curvature notion on the set of edges of a planar graph, called $\Psi$-curvature in our paper, which is stable under the planar duality. We study geometric and combinatorial properties for the class of…

This note studies the structure of the divisorial fixed part of the dualizing sheaf of a 1-connected curve D on a smooth surface S. It is shown that if the divisorial fixed part F of the dualizing sheaf is non empty then it has arithmetic…
