Some Remarks on Calabi-Yau Manifolds
2010
Here we focus on the geometry of the “mirror quintic” Y and its generalizations. In particular, we illustrate how to obtain new birational models of Y . The article under review can be regarded as an announcement of or supplement to results in forthcoming papers of the author and his collaborators concerning quintic threefolds, the Dwork pencil, and its natural generalization to higher dimensions [G. Bini, “Quotients of hypersurfaces in weighted projective space”, preprint, arxiv.org/ abs/0905.2099, Adv. Geom., to appear; G. Bini, B. van Geemen and T. L. Kelly, “Mirror quintics, discrete symmetries and Shioda maps”, preprint, arxiv.org/abs/0809. 1791, J. Algebraic Geom., to appear; G. Bini …
Optimal Extensions of Conformal Mappings from the Unit Disk to Cardioid-Type Domains
2019
AbstractThe conformal mapping $$f(z)=(z+1)^2 $$ f ( z ) = ( z + 1 ) 2 from $${\mathbb {D}}$$ D onto the standard cardioid has a homeomorphic extension of finite distortion to entire $${\mathbb {R}}^2 .$$ R 2 . We study the optimal regularity of such extensions, in terms of the integrability degree of the distortion and of the derivatives, and these for the inverse. We generalize all outcomes to the case of conformal mappings from $${\mathbb {D}}$$ D onto cardioid-type domains.
A short proof of the infinitesimal Hilbertianity of the weighted Euclidean space
2020
We provide a quick proof of the following known result: the Sobolev space associated with the Euclidean space, endowed with the Euclidean distance and an arbitrary Radon measure, is Hilbert. Our new approach relies upon the properties of the Alberti-Marchese decomposability bundle. As a consequence of our arguments, we also prove that if the Sobolev norm is closable on compactly-supported smooth functions, then the reference measure is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure.
P-spaces and the Whyburn property
2009
We investigate the Whyburn and weakly Whyburn property in the class of $P$-spaces, that is spaces where every countable intersection of open sets is open. We construct examples of non-weakly Whyburn $P$-spaces of size continuum, thus giving a negative answer under CH to a question of Pelant, Tkachenko, Tkachuk and Wilson. In addition, we show that the weak Kurepa Hypothesis (a set-theoretic assumption weaker than CH) implies the existence of a non-weakly Whyburn $P$-space of size $\aleph_2$. Finally, we consider the behavior of the above-mentioned properties under products; we show in particular that the product of a Lindel\"of weakly Whyburn P-space and a Lindel\"of Whyburn $P$-space is we…
Groups with soluble minimax conjugate classes of subgroups
2008
A classical result of Neumann characterizes the groups in which each subgroup has finitely many conjugates only as central-by-finite groups. If $\mathfrak{X}$ is a class of groups, a group $G$ is said to have $\mathfrak{X}$-conjugate classes of subgroups if $G/core_G(N_G(H)) \in \mathfrak{X}$ for each subgroup $H$ of $G$. Here we study groups which have soluble minimax conjugate classes of subgroups, giving a description in terms of $G/Z(G)$. We also characterize $FC$-groups which have soluble minimax conjugate classes of subgroups.
Aesthetics of Geometry and the Problem of Representation in Monument Sculpture
2017
Since the 1920s and 1930s, constructivist and concretist visual art movements have stressed geometric forms, proportions and orders as a base for artistic expressions and aesthetic experiences. After the World War II geometric form was adopted to the public sculpture. Abstract, geometrically constructed sculpture was also used in commemorative functions in modern monument art. The combination of the commemoration of a significant historical event or a national hero, and the aesthetic ideas based on constructivist or concretist art movements caused a lot of debates and confrontations in many Western countries. In particular, the interpretation of abstract monuments problematized: abstract mo…

Let \emph{Primes} be the set of all prime numbers, $k$ be a finite extension of the field of rational numbers and $\bar{k}$ be an algebraic closure of $k$. Let $(g, r)$ be a pair of nonnegative integers such that $2g - 2 + r > 0$ and $X$ be a hyperbolic curve of type $(g, r)$ over $k$. The author observes that, for each $l \in \emph{Primes}$, there are two natural outer representations on $\pi^{\{ l\}}_{1} (X \otimes_{k} \bar{k})$: $$\rho_{X / k} ^{\{ l\}}: G_{k} := Gal(\bar{k} / k) \rightarrow Out (\pi^{\{ l\}}_{1} (X \otimes_{k} \bar{k}))$$ and $$ \rho_{g, [r]} ^{\{ l\}}: \pi_{1}(M_{g, [r]}) \rightarrow Out (\pi^{\{ l\}}_{1} (X \otimes_{k} \bar{k})),$$ where $\pi^{\{ l\}}_{1} (X \otimes_{…

A smooth projective complex curve C is called rationally uniformized by radicals if there exists a covering map C \rightarrow P^1 with solvable Galois group. C is called algebraically uniformized by radicals if there exists a finite covering C^{\prime} \rightarrow C with C^{\prime} rationally uniformized by radicals. Abramovich and Harris posed the following problem in [D. Abramovich and J. Harris, Abelian varieties and curves in $W_{d}(C)$, Compositio Math., 78 (1991), pp. 227–-238]. \vspace{1ex} Statement S(d, h, g): \textit{Suppose C^{\prime} \rightarrow C is a nonconstant map of smooth curves with C of genus g. If C^{\prime} admits a map of degree d or less to a curve of genus h or less…
On base loci of higher fundamental forms of toric varieties
2019
We study the base locus of the higher fundamental forms of a projective toric variety $X$ at a general point. More precisely we consider the closure $X$ of the image of a map $({\mathbb C}^*)^k\to {\mathbb P}^n$, sending $t$ to the vector of Laurent monomials with exponents $p_0,\dots,p_n\in {\mathbb Z}^k$. We prove that the $m$-th fundamental form of such an $X$ at a general point has non empty base locus if and only if the points $p_i$ lie on a suitable degree-$m$ affine hypersurface. We then restrict to the case in which the points $p_i$ are all the lattice points of a lattice polytope and we give some applications of the above result. In particular we provide a classification for the se…
Tower sets and other configurations with the Cohen-Macaulay property
2014
Abstract Some well-known arithmetically Cohen–Macaulay configurations of linear varieties in P r as k-configurations, partial intersections and star configurations are generalized by introducing tower schemes. Tower schemes are reduced schemes that are a finite union of linear varieties whose support set is a suitable finite subset of Z + c called tower set. We prove that the tower schemes are arithmetically Cohen–Macaulay and we compute their Hilbert function in terms of their support. Afterwards, since even in codimension 2 not every arithmetically Cohen–Macaulay squarefree monomial ideal is the ideal of a tower scheme, we slightly extend this notion by defining generalized tower schemes …
