We make explicit the equations of any projective $PGL_2(\C)$-variety defined by quadrics. We study their zero-locus and their relationship with the geometry of the Veronese curve.
On logarithmic paper some real algebraic curves look like smoothed broken lines. Moreover, the broken lines can be obtained as limits of those curves. The corresponding deformation can be viewed as a quantization, in which the broken line…
We consider quadrangles of perimeter $2$ in the plane with marked directed edge. To such quadrangle $Q$ a two-dimensional plane $\Pi\in\mathbb{R}^4$ with orthonormal base is corresponded. Orthogonal plane $\Pi^\bot$ defines a plane…
We generalize a previous result by Fabricius-Bjerre from curves in $\mathbb R^2$ to curves in $\mathbb R P^2$. Applied to the case of real algebraic curves, this recovers the signed count of bitangents of quartics introduced by Larson-Vogt…
Several non-local curvature flows for plane curves with a general rotation number are discussed in this work. The types of flows include the area-preserving flow and the length-preserving flow. We have a relatively good understanding of…
We study a useful numerical invariant of normal surface singularities, introduced recently by T. Kawachi. Using this invariant, we give a quick proof of the (well-known) fact that all log-canonical surface singularities are either elliptic…
A two-component Looijenga pair is a rational smooth projective surface with an anticanonical divisor consisting of two transversally intersecting curves. We establish an all-genus correspondence between the logarithmic Gromov-Witten theory…
In this paper we give a formal expression to the limits of dual plane curves by using the method introduced by Katz. As an application, we give a formula to compute the vertices of $C(0)$ a plane curve in $C(t)$ a one-parameter family of…
A generalized quadrangle is a point-line incidence geometry $\mathcal{Q}$ such that: (i) any two points lie on at most one line, and (ii) given a line $\ell$ and a point $P$ not incident with $\ell$, there is a unique point of $\ell$…
We examine logarithmic connections with vanishing p-curvature on smooth curves by studying their kernels, describing them in terms of formal local decomposition. We then apply our results in the case of connections of rank 2 on P^1,…
The `linear orbit' of a plane curve of degree d is its orbit in the projective space of dimension d(d+3)/2 parametrizing such curves under the natural action of PGL(3). In this paper we compute the degree of the closure of the linear orbits…
We consider Lorentz surfaces in $\mathbb R^3_1$ satisfying the condition $H^2-K\neq 0$, where $K$ and $H$ are the Gauss curvature and the mean curvature, respectively, and call them Lorentz surfaces of general type. For this class of…
A classical result attributed to Joachimsthal in 1846 states that if two surfaces intersect with constant angle along a line of curvature of one surface, then the curve of intersection is also a line of curvature of the other surface. In…
This paper deals with some classical problems about the projective geometry of complex algebraic curves. We call \textit{locally toric} a projective curve that in a neighbourhood of every point has a local analytical parametrization of type…
Given two finite covers $p: X \to S$ and $q: Y \to S$ of a connected, oriented, closed surface $S$ of genus at least $2$, we attempt to characterize the equivalence of $p$ and $q$ in terms of which curves lift to simple curves. Using…
Canonical quantisation of the free-field zero modes q, p on a half-line p>0 provides for WZNW coset theories self-adjoint vertex operatorson account of hidden symmetries generated by an S-matrix.
B\"or\"oczky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang recently proved the log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality which is stronger than the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality for two origin-symmetric convex bodies in the plane. This paper establishes the…
We develop an algebraic version of Cartan method of equivalence or an analog of Tanaka prolongation for the (extrinsic) geometry of curves of flags of a vector space $W$ with respect to the action of a subgroup $G$ of the $GL(W)$. Under…
In this paper, we introduce the pseudo-torsion functions along spacelike curves whose curvature vector field has isolated lightlike points in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space, and prove the fundamental theorem. Moreover, we analyze the behavior of…
We introduce null surfaces (or nullcone fronts) of pseudo-spherical spacelike framed curves in the three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. These surfaces are formed by the light rays emitted from points on anti-de Sitter spacelike framed…
