Degree of the fibres of an elliptic fibration

Alexandru Buium (1983)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let X B an elliptic fibration with general fibre F . Let n e , n s , n a , n v be the minima of the non-zero intersection numbers ( , F ) where runs successively through the following sets: effective divisors on X , invertible sheaves spanned by global sections, ample divisors and very ample divisors. Let m be the maximum of the multiplicities of the fibres of X B . We prove that n e = n s if and only if n e 2 m and that n a = n v if and only if n a 3 m .

Recovering an algebraic curve using its projections from different points. Applications to static and dynamic computational vision

Jeremy Yirmeyahu Kaminski, Michael Fryers, Mina Teicher (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study some geometric configurations related to projections of an irreducible algebraic curve embedded in 3 onto embedded projective planes. These configurations are motivated by applications to static and dynamic computational vision. More precisely, we study how an irreducible closed algebraic curve X embedded in 3 , of degree d and genus g , can be recovered using its projections from points onto embedded projective planes. The embeddings are unknown. The only input is the defining...

The Brauer–Manin obstruction for curves having split Jacobians

Samir Siksek (2004)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let X 𝒜 be a non-constant morphism from a curve X to an abelian variety 𝒜 , all defined over a number field k . Suppose that X is a counterexample to the Hasse principle. We give sufficient conditions for the failure of the Hasse principle on X to be accounted for by the Brauer–Manin obstruction. These sufficiency conditions are slightly stronger than assuming that 𝒜 ( k ) and Ш ( 𝒜 / k ) are finite.

Syzygies and logarithmic vector fields along plane curves

Alexandru Dimca, Edoardo Sernesi (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

Similarity:

We investigate the relations between the syzygies of the Jacobian ideal of the defining equation for a plane curve C and the stability of the sheaf of logarithmic vector fields along C , the freeness of the divisor C and the Torelli properties of C (in the sense of Dolgachev-Kapranov). We show in particular that curves with a small number of nodes and cusps are Torelli in this sense.

Stein open subsets with analytic complements in compact complex spaces

Jing Zhang (2015)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let Y be an open subset of a reduced compact complex space X such that X - Y is the support of an effective divisor D. If X is a surface and D is an effective Weil divisor, we give sufficient conditions so that Y is Stein. If X is of pure dimension d ≥ 1 and X - Y is the support of an effective Cartier divisor D, we show that Y is Stein if Y contains no compact curves, H i ( Y , Y ) = 0 for all i > 0, and for every point x₀ ∈ X-Y there is an n ∈ ℕ such that Φ | n D | - 1 ( Φ | n D | ( x ) ) Y is empty or has dimension 0, where Φ | n D | ...

On ramified covers of the projective plane II: Generalizing Segre’s theory

Michael Friedman, Rebecca Lehman, Maxim Leyenson, Mina Teicher (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

The classical Segre theory gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a plane curve to be a branch curve of a (generic) projection of a smooth surface in 3 . We generalize this result for smooth surfaces in a projective space of any dimension in the following way: given two plane curves, B and E , we give a necessary and sufficient condition for B to be the branch curve of a surface X in N and E to be the image of the double curve of a 3 -model of X . In the classical Segre theory, a...

Rational points on curves

Michael Stoll (2011)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

This is an extended version of an invited lecture I gave at the Journées Arithmétiques in St. Étienne in July 2009. We discuss the state of the art regarding the problem of finding the set of rational points on a (smooth projective) geometrically integral curve  C over  . The focus is on practical aspects of this problem in the case that the genus of  C is at least  2 , and therefore the set of rational points is finite.

A differential equation related to the l p -norms

Jacek Bojarski, Tomasz Małolepszy, Janusz Matkowski (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let p ∈ (1,∞). The question of existence of a curve in ℝ₊² starting at (0,0) and such that at every point (x,y) of this curve, the l p -distance of the points (x,y) and (0,0) is equal to the Euclidean length of the arc of this curve between these points is considered. This problem reduces to a nonlinear differential equation. The existence and uniqueness of solutions is proved and nonelementary explicit solutions are given.

On Zariski's theorem in positive characteristic

Ilya Tyomkin (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In the current paper we show that the dimension of a family V of irreducible reduced curves in a given ample linear system on a toric surface S over an algebraically closed field is bounded from above by - K S . C + p g ( C ) - 1 , where C denotes a general curve in the family. This result generalizes a famous theorem of Zariski to the case of positive characteristic. We also explore new phenomena that occur in positive characteristic: We show that the equality 𝚍𝚒𝚖 ( V ) = - K S . C + p g ( C ) - 1 does not imply the nodality of C even if C belongs...

Singularities of 2 Θ -divisors in the jacobian

Christian Pauly, Emma Previato (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We consider the linear system | 2 Θ 0 | of second order theta functions over the Jacobian J C of a non-hyperelliptic curve C . A result by J.Fay says that a divisor D | 2 Θ 0 | contains the origin 𝒪 J C with multiplicity 4 if and only if D contains the surface C - C = { 𝒪 ( p - q ) p , q C } J C . In this paper we generalize Fay’s result and some previous work by R.C.Gunning. More precisely, we describe the relationship between divisors containing 𝒪 with multiplicity 6 , divisors containing the fourfold C 2 - C 2 = { 𝒪 ( p + q - r - s ) p , q , r , s C } , and divisors singular along C - C , using...

The end curve theorem for normal complex surface singularities

Walter D. Neumann, Jonathan Wahl (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove the “End Curve Theorem,” which states that a normal surface singularity ( X , o ) with rational homology sphere link Σ is a splice quotient singularity if and only if it has an end curve function for each leaf of a good resolution tree. An “end curve function” is an analytic function ( X , o ) ( , 0 ) whose zero set intersects Σ in the knot given by a meridian curve of the exceptional curve corresponding to the given leaf. A “splice quotient singularity” ( X , o ) is described by giving an explicit set of...
