A $d^{\{n\}}$-cage $\mathsf K$ is the union of $n$ groups of hyperplanes in $\Bbb P^n$, each group containing $d$ members. The hyperplanes from the distinct groups are in general position, thus producing $d^n$ points, where hyperplanes from…

Given a family $X/B$ of nodal curves, we construct canonically and compatibly with base-change, via an explicit blow-up of the Cartesian product $X^r/B$, a family $W^r(X/B)$ parametrizing length-$r$ subschemes of fibres of $X/B$ (plus some…

We prove that a set $\mathcal X\subset \mathbb{C}^2,\ \#{\mathcal X}=mn,\ m\le n, $ is the set of intersection points of some two plane algebraic curves of degrees $m$ and $n,$ respectively, if and only if the following conditions are…

We identify and study a matrix algebra consisting of Pascal-type matrices. The generator of the matrix algebra is shown to well define a canonical bundle map, called the Pascal map on jet bundles, and we use it to give an intrinsic…

Suppose $\mathcal{X}$ is an $n$-correct set of nodes in the plane, that is, it admits a unisolvent interpolation with bivariate polynomials of total degree less than or equal to $n.$ Then an algebraic curve $q$ of degree $k\le n$ can pass…

Using the Semple bundle construction, we derive an intersection-theoretic formula for the number of simultaneous contacts of specified orders between members of a generic family of degree $d$ plane curves and finitely many fixed curves. The…

There are two purposes in this article. One is to present a criterion for the existence of a birational embedding into a projective plane with inner and outer Galois points for algebraic curves. Another is to classify plane curves of degree…

In 1640's, Blaise Pascal discovered a remarkable property of a hexagon inscribed in a conic - Pascal Theorem, which gave birth of the projective geometry. In this paper, a new geometric invariant of algebraic curves is discovered by a…

Let $C \s \pr^2$ be an irreducible plane curve whose dual $C^* \s \pr^{2*}$ is an immersed curve which is neither a conic nor a nodal cubic. The main result states that the Poincar\'e group $\pi_1(\pr^2 \se C)$ contains a free group with…

A criterion for the existence of a birational embedding into a projective plane with non-collinear Galois points for algebraic curves is presented. A new example of a plane curve with non-collinear Galois points as an application is…

Let a set of nodes $\mathcal X$ in the plane be $n$-independent, i.e., each node has a fundamental polynomial of degree $n.$ Assume that $\#\mathcal X=d(n,k-3)+3= (n+1)+n+\cdots+(n-k+5)+3$ and $4 \le k\le n-1.$ In this paper we prove that…

Given any arbitrary semi-algebraic set $X$, any two points in $X$ may be joined by a piecewise $C^2$ path $\gamma$ of shortest length. Suppose $\mathcal{A}$ is a semi-algebraic stratification of $X$ such that each component of $\gamma \cap…

An $n$-correct set $\mathcal{X}$ in the plane is a set of nodes admitting unique interpolation with bivariate polynomials of total degree at most $n$. A $k$-node line is a line passing through exactly $k$ nodes of $\mathcal{X}.$ A line can…

Consider a plane graph G, drawn with straight lines. For every pair a,b of vertices of G, we compare the shortest-path distance between a and b in G (with Euclidean edge lengths) to their actual distance in the plane. The worst-case ratio…

We give new examples of plane curves with two or more Galois points as a family, and describe the number of Galois points for these curves, by using finite fields.

Given a smooth complex variety $X$, an algebraically skew embedding of $X$ is an embedding of $X$ into a complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^N$ such that for any two points $x,y\in X$, their embedded tangent spaces in $\mathbb{P}^N$ do not…

We introduce the new notion of the "quasi-Galois point" in Algebraic geometry, which is a generalization of the Galois point. A point $P$ in projective plane is said to be quasi-Galois for a plane curve if the curve admits a non-trivial…

Working over a field ${\mathbb{k}}$ of characteristic $\ne 2$, we study what we call bisector fields, which are arrangements of paired lines in the plane that have the property that each line in the arrangement crosses the paired lines in…

This paper considers the task of connecting points on a piece of paper by drawing a curve between each pair of them. Under mild assumptions, we prove that many pairwise disjoint curves are unavoidable if either of the following rules is…

The projective hull X^ of a subset X in complex projective space P^n is an analogue of the classical polynomial hull of a set in C^n. If X is contained in an affine chart C^n on P^n, then the affine part of X^ is the set of points x in C^n…
