Researchers compute monodromy groups of surface families over quartic curves.

Holomorphic maps between configuration spaces are classified, resolving quartic and elliptic curve problems.

We study the discriminant of a degree 4 extension given by a deformed bidouble cover, i.e., by equations z^2= u + a w, w^2= v + bz. We first show that the discriminant surface is a quartic which is cuspidal on a twisted cubic, i.e.,is the discriminant of the general equation of degree 3. We then take a(u,v), b(u,v) and…

Automatically explores geometric loci of curves using software networking.

We investigate the structure of a variety of new Moishezon twistor spaces, by utilizing the pluri-half-anti-canonical map from the twistor spaces. Each of these twistor spaces is bimeromorphic to a double covering of a scroll of planes over a rational normal curve, and the branch divisor of the double cover is a cut of…

Let ${\mathcal {B}}$ be a reducible reduced plane curve. We introduce a new point of view to study the topology of $(\PP^2, {\mathcal {B}})$ via Galois covers and Alexander polynomials. We show its effectiveness through examples of Zariski $N$-plets for conic and conic-quartic configurations.

We study the moduli space of null curves in Klein's quartic in the four-dimensional (complex) projective plane using methods developed by Robert Bryant. As a consequence, we show that minimal surfaces with $9$ embedded planar ends do not exist and formulate some conjectures about the previous moduli space.

Study shows K-moduli spaces connect quartic surfaces to K3 surfaces, verifying predictions and classifying degenerations.

We investigate the action of the automorphism group of a closed Riemann surface on its set of theta characteristics (or spin structures). We give criteria for when an automorphism fixes all spin structures, or when it fixes just one. The case of hyperelliptic curves and of the Klein quartic are discussed in detail.

We study complex spatial quartic surfaces with simple singularities up to equisingular deformations; as a first step, give a complete equisingular deformation classification of the so-called non-special simple quartic surfaces.

Study shows K-moduli spaces of curves on quadrics and K3 surfaces match with VGIT quotients.

We investigate the special Kähler geometry of the base of the Hitchin integrable system in terms of spectral curves and topological recursion. The Taylor expansion of the special Kähler metric about any point in the base may be computed by integrating the $g = 0$ Eynard-Orantin invariants of the corresponding spectral …

Segre quartic surfaces linked to minitwistor spaces with Einstein-Weyl structures.

Minimal surfaces with isothermal parameters admitting Bézier representation were studied by Cosin and Monterde. They showed that, up to an affine transformation, the Enneper surface is the only bi-cubic isothermal minimal surface. Here we study bi-quartic isothermal minimal surfaces and establish the general form of th…

The theory of slice regular functions of a quaternion variable is applied to the study of orthogonal complex structures on domains Ω of R^4. When Ω is a symmetric slice domain, the twistor transform of such a function is a holomorphic curve in the Klein quadric. The case in which Ω is the complement of a parabola is st…

Formula conjectured for rational cuspidal curves in projective plane.

Classifies branched Willmore spheres using conformal Gauss maps.

We construct a topological invariant of algebraic plane curves, which is in some sense an adaptation of the linking number of knot theory. This invariant is shown to be a generalization of the I-invariant of line arrangements developed by the first author with Artal and Florens. We give two practical tools for computin…

Elliptic curves and braid groups linked through configuration spaces.

Klein quartic maximizes the first positive Laplacian eigenvalue's multiplicity to 8.

We give an algebro-geometric construction of some of the non-arithmetic ball quotients constructed by the author, Parker and Paupert. The new construction reveals a relationship between the corresponding orbifold fundamental groups and the automorphism group of the Klein quartic, and also with groups constructed by Bar…

Study Einstein-Weyl spaces from Segre quartic surfaces, finding unique geodesics and deformations.

We prove some value of the harmonic volume for the Klein quartic $C$ is nonzero modulo ${1/2}\{mathbb Z}$, using special values of the generalized hypergeometric function ${}_3F_2$. This result tells us the algebraic cycle $C-C^-$ is not algebraically equivalent to zero in the Jacobian variety $J(C)$.

Study confirms nullity of biharmonic maps family, linking spectral and arithmetic geometry.

Paper constructs an infinite 3-7 surface in 3D space.

In this paper, we consider a Finsler space with a Randers change of Quartic metric F = $\sqrt[4]{α^4 + β^4} + β$. The conditions for this space to be with reversible geodesics are obtained. Further, we study some geometrical properties of F with reversible geodesics and prove that the Finsler metric F induces a general…

Here are described the axiumbilic points that appear in generic one parameter families of surfaces immersed in R4. At these points the ellipse of curvature of the immersion, Little, Garcia - Sotomayor has equal axes. A review is made on the basic preliminaries on axial curvature lines and the associated axiumbilic poin…

Study of rational curves in complex manifolds with specific normal bundles.

Study of zero-divisors in sedenions via determinant factorization.

A quadratic point on a surface in $RP^3$ is a point at which the surface can be approximated by a quadric abnormally well (up to order 3). We conjecture that the least number of quadratic points on a generic compact non-degenerate hyperbolic surface is 8; the relation between this and the classic Carathéodory conjectur…

We consider the parameter space $\mathcal U_d$ of smooth plane curves of degree $d$. The universal smooth plane curve of degree $d$ is a fiber bundle $\mathcal E_d\to\mathcal U_d$ with fiber diffeomorphic to a surface $Σ_g$. This bundle gives rise to a monodromy homomorphism $ρ_d:π_1(\mathcal U_d)\to\mathrm{Mod}(Σ_g)$,…

Study calculates volumes of Fano K-moduli spaces in various dimensions.

It is shown that the sum of class numbers of orders in totally complex quartic fields with no real quadratic subfield obeys an asymptotic law similar to the prime numbers, as the bound on the regulators tends to infinity. Here only orders which are maximal at a given set of primes containing an even number of elements …

Study on homological Dehn functions of groups of type $FP_2$.

We study real lines on certain Moishezon threefolds which are potentially twistor spaces of 3CP^2. Here, line means a smooth rational curve whose normal bundle is O(1)^2 and the reality implies the invariance under an anti-holomorphic involution on the threefolds. Our threefolds are birational to double coverings of CP…

Compactifies a component by studying metric degeneration.

We study log canonical thresholds on quartic threefolds, quintic fourfolds, and double spaces. As an application, we show that they have a Kaehler-Einstein metric if they are general.

A Laguerre geometric local characterization is given of L-minimal surfaces and Laguerre deformations (T-transforms) of L-minimal isothermic surfaces in terms of the holomorphicity of a quartic and a quadratic differential. This is used to prove that, via their Laguerre Gauss maps, the T-transforms of L-minimal isotherm…

In this paper we considerably extend the class of known $α$-minimizing hypercones using sub-calibration methods. Indeed, the improvement of previous results follows from a careful analysis of special cubic and quartic polynomials.

Study on Einstein metrics on specific homogeneous spaces.

We prove that any weakly triholomorphic map from a compact hyperkähler surface to an algebraic K3 surface defined by a homogeneous polynomial of degree 4 in $\mathbb{C}P^3$ has only isolated singularities.

In this paper we deal with the classical question of existence of polynomial in momenta integrals for geodesic flows on the 2-torus. For the quasi-linear system on coefficients of the polynomial integral we consider the region (so called elliptic regions) where there are complex-conjugate eigenvalues. We show that for …

This article proposes a new method for the estimation of the parameters of a simple linear regression model which accounts for the role of co-moments in non-Gaussian distributions being based on the minimization of a quartic loss function. Although the proposed method is very general, we examine its application to fina…
