Self-duality equation: Monodromy matrices and algebraic curves
We develop the representation theory of selfinjective algebras which admit Galois coverings by the repetitive algebras of algebras whose derived category of bounded complexes of finite-dimensional modules is equivalent to the derived category of coherent sheaves on a weighted projective line with virtual genus greater than one.
An interesting and open question is the classification of affine algebraic plane curves. Abhyankar and Moh (1977) completely described the possible links at infinity for those curves where the link has just one component, a knot. Such curves are said to have one place at infinity. The Abhyankar-Moh result has been of great assistance in classifying those polynomials which define a connected curve with one place at infinity. This paper provides a new proof of the Abhyankar-Moh result which is then...
Let be a smooth projective curve of genus defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic . Given a semistable vector bundle over , we show that its direct image under the Frobenius map of is again semistable. We deduce a numerical characterization of the stable rank- vector bundles , where is a line bundle over .
Experience shows that in geometric situations the separating ideal associated with two orderings of a ring measures the degree of tangency of the corresponding ultrafilters of semialgebraic sets. A related notion of separating ideals is introduced for pairs of valuations of a ring. The comparison of both types of separating ideals helps to understand how a point on a surface is approached by different half-branches of curves.
A notion of positivity, called Seshadri ampleness, is introduced for a smooth curve in a polarized smooth projective -fold , whose motivation stems from some recent results concerning the gonality of space curves and the behaviour of stable bundles on under restriction to . This condition is stronger than the normality of the normal bundle and more general than being defined by a regular section of an ample rank- vector bundle. We then explore some of the properties of Seshadri-ample curves....
