We study cubic rational maps that take lines to plane curves. A complete description of such cubic rational maps concludes the classification of all planarizations, i.e., maps taking lines to plane curves.

Recently, the first Abel map for a stable curve of genus g>1 has been constructed. Fix an integer d>0 and let C be a stable curve of compact type of genus g>1. We construct two d-th Abel maps for C, having different targets, and we compare…

This is a follow-up paper of arXiv:1805.00115, where rational curves in surfaces that satisfy general positioned point and cross-ratio conditions were enumerated. A suitable correspondence theorem provided in arXiv:1509.07453 allowed us to…

We establish the sharp estimate <<_d N^{2/d} for the number of rational points of height at most N on an irreducible projective curve of degree d. We deduce this from a result for general hypersurfaces that is sensitive to the coefficients…

We enumerate complex curves on toric surfaces of any given degree and genus, having a single cusp and nodes as their singularities, and matching appropriately many point constraints. The solution is obtained via tropical enumerative…

In the nineties, several methods for dealing in a more efficient way with the implicitization of rational parametrizations were explored in the Computer Aided Geometric Design Community. The analysis of the validity of these techniques has…

We study the relation between the type of a double point of a plane curve and the curvilinear 0-dimensional subschemes of the curve at the point. An Algorithm related to a classical procedure for the study of double points via osculating…

We consider all genus 2 curves over Q given by an equation y^2 = f(x) with f a squarefree polynomial of degree 5 or 6, with integral coefficients of absolute value at most 3. For each of these roughly 200000 isomorphism classes of curves,…

The tangential map is a map on the set of smooth planar curves. It satisfies the 3D-consistency property and is closely related to some well-known integrable equations.

We define a computable topological invariant $\mu(\gamma)$ for generic closed planar regular curves $\gamma$, which gives an effective lower bound for the number of inflection points on a given generic closed planar curve. Using it, we…

This paper presents a spline-based parameterisation framework for plane graphs. The plane graph is characterised by a collection of curves forming closed loops that fence-off planar faces which have to be parameterised individually. Hereby,…

Let $X$ be either a general hypersurface of degree $n+1$ in $\mathbb P^n$ or a general $(2,n)$ complete intersection in $\mathbb P^{n+1}, n\geq 4$. We construct balanced rational curves on $X$ of all high enough degrees. If $n=3$ or $g=1$,…

We obtain new examples and the complete list of the rational cuspidal plane curves $C$ with at least three cusps, one of which has multiplicity ${\rm deg}\,C - 2$. It occurs that these curves are projectively rigid. We also discuss the…

This paper contains an attempt to formulate rigorously and to check predictions in enumerative geometry of curves following from Mirror Symmetry. The main tool is a new notion of stable map. We give an outline of a contsruction of…

We describe a method that allows, under some hypotheses, to compute all the rational points of some genus 5 curves defined over a number field. This method is used to solve some arithmetic problems that remained open.

Motivated by the problem of formation control for vehicles moving at unit speed in three-dimensional space, we are led to models of gyroscopically interacting particles, which require the machinery of curves and frames to describe and…

We give a complete factorization of the invariant factors of resultant matrices built from birational parameterizations of rational plane curves in terms of the singular points of the curve and their multiplicity graph. This allows us to…

The parametric equations of the plane curves determining the equilibrium shapes that a uniform inextensible elastic ring or tube could take subject to a uniform hydrostatic pressure are presented in an explicit analytic form. The…

A Tangle is a smooth simple closed curve formed from arcs (or ``links'') of circles with fixed radius. Most previous study of Tangles has dealt with the case where these arcs are quarter-circles, but Tangles comprised of thirds and sixths…

A novel and deterministic algorithm is presented to detect whether two given rational plane curves are related by means of a similarity, which is a central question in Pattern Recognition. As a by-product it finds all such similarities, and…
