The polyhedral Hodge number $h^{2,1}$ and vanishing of obstructions

2000

We prove a vanishing theorem for the Hodge number $h^{2,1}$ of projective toric varieties provided by a certain class of polytopes. We explain how this Hodge number also gives information about the deformation theory of the toric Gorenstein singularity derived from the same polytope. In particular, the vanishing theorem for $h^{2,1}$ implies that these deformations are unobstructed.

A class of unitals of order q which can be embedded in two different planes of order q2

1987

By deriving the desarguesian plane of order q2 for every prime power q a unital of order q is constructed which can be embedded in both the Hall plane and the dual of the Hall plane of order q2 which are non-isomorphic projective planes. The representation of translation planes in the fourdimensional projective space of J. Andre and F. Buekenhouts construction of unitals in these planes are used. It is shown that the full automorphism groups of these unitals are just the collineation groups inherited from the classical unitals.

Kollineationen und Schliessungssätze für Ebene Faserungen

1979

Every affine central collineation of a translation plane π induces a special collineation of the projective space π spanned by the spreadF belonging to π. Here the relations between these special collineations of π and certain incidence propositions inF are investigated; so new proofs are given for some characterisations of (A,B)-regular spreads included in [7].

The module structure of Hochschild homology in some examples

2008

Abstract In this Note we give a simple proof of a conjecture by A. Caldararu stating the compatibility between the modified Hochschild–Kostant–Rosenberg isomorphism and the action of Hochschild cohomology on Hochschild homology in the case of Calabi–Yau manifolds and smooth projective curves.

Vector Bundles and Torsion Free Sheaves on Degenerations of Elliptic Curves

2006

In this paper we give a survey about the classification of vector bundles and torsion free sheaves on degenerations of elliptic curves. Coherent sheaves on singular curves of arithmetic genus one can be studied using the technique of matrix problems or via Fourier-Mukai transforms, both methods are discussed here. Moreover, we include new proofs of some classical results about vector bundles on elliptic curves.

Cohomologie relative des applications polynomiales

2001

Let F be a polynomial dominating mapping from Cn to Cq with n>q. We study the de Rham cohomology of the fibres of F, and its relative cohomology groups. Let us fix a strictly positive weighted homogeneous degree on C[x1,…,xn]. With the leading terms of the coordinate functions of F, we construct a fibre of F that is said to be “at infinity”. We introduce the cohomology groups of F at infinity. These groups, denoted by Hk(F−1(∞)), enable us to study all the other cohomology groups of F. For instance, if the fibre at infinity has an isolated singularity at the origin, we prove that any quasi-homogeneous basis of Hn−q(F−1(∞)) provides a basis of all groups Hn−q(F−1(y)), as well as a basis of t…

2002

Generalizing cones over projective toric varieties, we present arbitrary toric varieties as quotients of quasiaffine toric varieties. Such quotient presentations correspond to groups of Weil divisors generating the topology. Groups comprising Cartier divisors define free quotients, whereas ℚ–Cartier divisors define geometric quotients. Each quotient presentation yields homogeneous coordinates. Using homogeneous coordinates, we express quasicoherent sheaves in terms of multigraded modules and describe the set of morphisms into a toric variety.

Some Problems on Homomorphisms and Real Function Algebras

2001

In this paper we solve a problem about the representation of all homomorphisms on a real function algebra as point evaluations and another two about function algebras in which homomorphisms are point evaluations on sequences in the algebra.

Segre, Klein, and the Theory of Quadratic Line Complexes

2016

Two of C. Segre’s earliest papers, (Segre 1883a) and (Segre 1884), dealt with the classification of quadratic line complexes, a central topic in line geometry. These papers, the first written together with Gino Loria, were submitted to Felix Klein in 1883 for publication in Mathematische Annalen. Together with the two lengthier works that comprise Segre’s dissertation, (Segre 1883b) and (Segre 1883c), they took up and completed a topic that Klein had worked on a decade earlier (when he was known primarily as an expert on line geometry). Using similar ideas, but a new and freer approach to higher-dimensional geometry, Segre not only refined and widened this earlier work but also gave it a ne…

Convergence-theoretic mechanisms behind product theorems

2000

Abstract Commutation of the topologizer with products, quotientness of product maps, preservation of some properties by products, topologicity of continuous convergence, continuity of complete lattices are facets of the same quest. A new method of multifilters is used to establish (in terms of core-contour-compactness) sufficient and necessary conditions for these properties in the framework of general convergences. The relativized Antoine reflector plays here an important role. Several classical results (of Whitehead, Michael, Boehme, Cohen, Day and Kelly, Hofmann and Lawson, Schwarz and Weck, Kent and Richardson, and others) are extended or refined.
