The rationality of some moduli spaces of plane curves
We describe the set of minimal log discrepancies of toric log varieties, and study its accumulation points.
Equivalence is established between a special class of Painlevé VI equations parametrized by a conformal dimension , time dependent Euler top equations, isomonodromic deformations and three-dimensional Frobenius manifolds. The isomonodromic tau function and solutions of the Euler top equations are explicitly constructed in terms of Wronskian solutions of the 2-vector 1-constrained symplectic Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (CKP) hierarchy by means of Grassmannian formulation. These Wronskian solutions give...
We classify those smooth (n-1)-folds in G(1,Pn) for which the restriction of the rank-(n-1) universal bundle has more than n+1 independent sections. As an application, we classify also those (n-1)-folds for which that bundle splits.
