Abstract Let S be a compact complex surface in class VII0 + containing a cycle of rational curves C = ∑Dj . Let D = C + A be the maximal connected divisor containing C. If there is another connected component of curves C ′ then C ′ is a cycle of rational curves, A = 0 and S is a Inoue-Hirzebruch surface. If there is only one connected component D then each connected component Ai of A is a chain of rational curves which intersects a curve Dj of the cycle and for each curve Dj of the cycle there at most one chain which meets Dj . In other words, we do not prove the existence of curves other those of the cycle C, but if some other curves exist the maximal divisor looks like the maximal divisor of a Kato surface with perhaps missing curves. The proof of this topological result is an application of Donaldson theorem on trivialization of the intersection form and of deformation theory. We apply this result to show that a twisted logarithmic 1-form has a trivial vanishing divisor.

Abstract We improve on the first fall degree bound of polynomial systems that arise from a Weil descent along Semaev’s summation polynomials relevant to the solution of the Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem via Gröbner basis algorithms.

Abstract We investigate the location of zeros for the partition function of the anti-ferromagnetic Ising model, focusing on the zeros lying on the unit circle. We give a precise characterization for the class of rooted Cayley trees, showing that the zeros are nowhere dense on the most interesting circular arcs. In contrast, we prove that when considering all graphs with a given degree bound, the zeros are dense in a circular sub-arc, implying that Cayley trees are in this sense not extremal. The proofs rely on describing the rational dynamical systems arising when considering ratios of partition functions on recursively defined trees.

Let X be a nonsingular algebraic K3 surface carrying a nonsingular hyperelliptic curve of genus 3 and no rational curves. Our purpose is to study two algebraic deformations of X, viz. one specialization and one generalization. We assume the characteristic ≠ 2. The generalization of X is a nonsingular quartic surface Q in P3 : we wish to show in § 1 that there is an irreducible algebraic family of surfaces over the affine line, in which X is a member and in which Q is a general member. The specialization of X is a surface Y having a birational model which is a ramified double cover of a quadric cone in P3.

We prove that the canonical bundle of a foliation by curves on a compact Kähler manifold is pseudoeffective, unless the foliation is a (special) foliation by rational curves.

The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that the techniques of Computer Aided Geometric Design such as spatial rational curves and surfaces could be applied to Kinematics, Computer Animation and Robotics. For this purpose we represent a method which utilizes a special class of rational curves called Rational Frenet-Serret (RF) [8] curves for robot trajectory planning. RF curves distinguished by the property that the motion of their Frenet-Serret frame is rational. We describe an algorithm for interpolation of positions by a rational Frenet-Serret motion. Further more we provide an analysis on spatial frames (Frenet-Serret frame and Rotation Minimizing frame) for smooth robot arm motion and investigate their applications in sweep surface modeling.

Abstract In the design and manufacturing of shell structures it is frequently necessary to construct trimming curves on surfaces. The novel method introduced in this paper was formulated to be coordinate independent and computationally efficient for a very general class of surfaces. Generality of the formulation is attained by solving a tensorial differential equation that is formulated in terms of local differential properties of the surface. In the method proposed here, a space curve is mapped onto the surface by tracing a surface curve whose points are connected to the space curve via surface normals. This surface curve is called to be an orthogonal projection of the space curve onto the surface. Tracing of the orthogonal projection is achieved by solving the aforementionned tensorial differential equation. For an implicitely represented surface, the differential equation is solved in three-space. For a parametric surface the tensorial differential equation is solved in the parametric space associated with the surface representation. This method has been tested on a broad class of examples including polynomials, splines, transcendental parametric and implicit surface representations. Orthogonal projection of a curve onto a surface was also developed in the context of surface blending. The orthogonal projection of a curve onto two surfaces to be blended provides not only a trimming curve design tool, but it was also used to construct smooth natural maps between trimming curves on different surfaces. This provides a coordinate and representation independent tool for constructing blend surfaces.
