Bounds for the anticanonical bundle of a homogeneous projective rational manifold.
The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity is one of the most important invariants in studying the minimal free resolution of the defining ideals of the projective varieties. There are some bounds on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the projective variety in terms of the other basic invariants such as dimension, codimension and degree. This paper studies a bound on the regularity conjectured by Hoa, and shows this bound and extremal examples in the case of divisors on rational normal scrolls.
The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we give an upper bound on the order of a multisecant line to an integral arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay subscheme in Pn of codimension two in terms of the Hilbert function. Secondly, we give an explicit description of the singular locus of the blow up of an arbitrary local ring at a complete intersection ideal. This description is used to refine a standard linking theorem. These results are tied together by the construction of sharp examples for the bound,...
In this work we study the moduli part in the canonical bundle formula of an lc-trivial fibration whose general fibre is a rational curve. If is the Cartier index of the fibre, it was expected that would provide a bound on the denominators of the moduli part. Here we prove that such a bound cannot even be polynomial in , we provide a bound and an example where the smallest integer that clears the denominators of the moduli part is . Moreover we prove that even locally the denominators depend...
Laminations are classic sets of disjoint and non-self-crossing curves on surfaces. Lamination languages are languages of two-way infinite words which code laminations by using associated labeled embedded graphs, and which are subshifts. Here, we characterize the possible exact affine factor complexities of these languages through bouquets of circles, i.e. graphs made of one vertex, as representative coding graphs. We also show how to build families of laminations together with corresponding lamination...
These are the notes from a one-week course on Braid Monodromy of Algebraic Curves given at the Université de Pau et des Pays de l’Adour during the Première Ecole Franco-Espagnole: Groupes de tresses et topologie en petite dimension in October 2009.This is intended to be an introductory survey through which we hope we can briefly outline the power of the concept monodromy as a common area for group theory, algebraic geometry, and topology of projective curves.The main classical results are stated...
In this work, we describe the historic links between the study of -dimensional manifolds (specially knot theory) and the study of the topology of complex plane curves with a particular attention to the role of braid groups and Alexander-like invariants (torsions, different instances of Alexander polynomials). We finish with detailed computations in an example.
The branching data of an algebraic function is a list of orders of local monodromies around branching points. We present branching data that ensure that the algebraic functions having them are representable by radicals. This paper is a review of recent work by the authors and of closely related classical work by Ritt.
