We give an elementary, explicit smooth compactification of a parameter space for the family of twisted cubics. The construction also applies to the family of subschemes defined by determinantal nets of quadrics, e.g., cubic ruled surfaces in $\boldsymbol P^4$, Segre varieties in $\boldsymbol P^5$. It is suitable for applications of Bott's formula to a few enumerative problems.

The 2-jet of a Σ3 map-germ f:(3, 0) → (3, 0) determines a net of quadratic maps from 3 to 3; for nets of general type this jet is sufficient for equivalence. The classification of such nets involves a single parameter c. It is shown in [7], also in [3], that the versai unfolding of f is topologically trivial over the parameter space. However, there are 4 connected components of this space of nets. The main object of this paper is to show that the corresponding unfolded maps are of different topological types.

AbstractA contact twisted cubic structure$$({\mathcal M},\mathcal {C},{\varvec{\upgamma }})$$ ( M , C , γ ) is a 5-dimensional manifold $${\mathcal M}$$ M together with a contact distribution $$\mathcal {C}$$ C and a bundle of twisted cubics $${\varvec{\upgamma }}\subset \mathbb {P}(\mathcal {C})$$ γ ⊂ P ( C ) compatible with the conformal symplectic form on $$\mathcal {C}$$ C . The simplest contact twisted cubic structure is referred to as the contact Engel structure; its symmetry group is the exceptional group $$\mathrm {G}_2$$ G 2 . In the present paper we equip the contact Engel structure with a smooth section $$\sigma : {\mathcal M}\rightarrow {\varvec{\upgamma }}$$ σ : M → γ , which “marks” a point in each fibre $${\varvec{\upgamma }}_x$$ γ x . We study the local geometry of the resulting structures $$({\mathcal M},\mathcal {C},{\varvec{\upgamma }}, \sigma )$$ ( M , C , γ , σ ) , which we call marked contact Engel structures. Equivalently, our study can be viewed as a study of foliations of $${\mathcal M}$$ M by curves whose tangent directions are everywhere contained in $${\varvec{\upgamma }}$$ γ . We provide a complete set of local invariants of marked contact Engel structures, we classify all homogeneous models with symmetry groups of dimension $$\ge 6$$ ≥ 6 up to local equivalence, and we prove an analogue of the classical Kerr theorem from Relativity.

Little is known of the details of systems of concomitants belonging to double binary forms. The cases of the single ground form of orders (1, 1), (2, 1), (2, 2) respectively, together with the simultaneous system of any number of (1, 1) forms, are the only four cases, which have been published. The following pages establish the simultaneous system of two (2, 1) forms.This system is fundamental for the geometrical treatment of two twisted cubics lying upon a quadric surface and having four common points.
