The paper studies a relation between fundamental group of the complement to a plane singular curve and the orbifold pencils containing it. The main tool is the use of Albanese varieties of cyclic covers ramified along such curves. Our results give sufficient conditions for a plane singular curve to belong to an orbifold pencil, that is, a pencil of plane curves with multiple fibers inducing a map onto an orbifold curve whose orbifold fundamental group is nontrivial. We construct an example of a cyclic cover of the projective plane which is an abelian surface isomorphic to the Jacobian of a curve of genus 2 illustrating the extent to which these conditions are necessary.

AbstractA conjecture of Gromov states that a one-ended word-hyperbolic group must contain a subgroup that is isomorphic to the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic surface. Recent papers by Gordon and Wilton and by Kim and Wilton give sufficient conditions for hyperbolic surface groups to be embedded in a hyperbolic Baumslag double G. Using Nielsen cancellation methods based on techniques from previous work by the second author, we prove that a hyperbolic orientable surface group of genus 2 is embedded in a hyperbolic Baumslag double if and only if the amalgamated word W is a commutator: that is, W = [U, V] for some elements U, V ∈ F. Furthermore, a hyperbolic Baumslag double G contains a non-orientable surface group of genus 4 if and only if W = X2Y2 for some X, Y ∈ F. G can contain no non-orientable surface group of smaller genus.

In this paper, sufficient conditions ensuring existence and multiplicity of positive solutions for a class of nonlinear singular fractional differential systems are derived with Riemann–Stieltjes coupled integral boundary value conditions in Banach Spaces. Nonlinear functions f(t,u,v) and g(t,u,v) in the considered systems are allowed to be singular at every variable. The boundary conditions here are coupled forms with Riemann–Stieltjes integrals. In order to overcome the difficulties arising from the singularity, a suitable cone is constructed through the properties of Green’s functions associated with the systems. The main tool used in the present paper is the fixed point theorem on cone. Lastly, an example is offered to show the effectiveness of our obtained new results.

Abstract This paper is devoted to the study of initial-boundary value problems for time-fractional analogues of Korteweg-de Vries, Benjamin-Bona-Mahony, Burgers, Rosenau, Camassa-Holm, Degasperis-Procesi, Ostrovsky and time-fractional modified Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equations on a bounded domain. Sufficient conditions for the blowing-up of solutions in finite time of aforementioned equations are presented. We also discuss the maximum principle and influence of gradient non-linearity on the global solvability of initial-boundary value problems for the time-fractional Burgers equation. The main tool of our study is the Pohozhaev nonlinear capacity method. We also provide some illustrative examples.

AbstractIn this note we study curves (arrangements) in the complex projective plane which can be considered as generalizations of free curves. We construct families of arrangements which are nearly free and possess interesting geometric properties. More generally, we study 3-syzygy curve arrangements and we present examples that admit unexpected curves.

AbstractIn this paper we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on a regular semigroup in order that it should be an idempotent separating homomorphic image of a full subsemigroup of the direct product of a group and a fundamental or combinatorial regular semigroup. The main tool used is the concept of a prehomomrphism θ: S → T between regular semigroups. This is a mapping such that (ab) θ ≦ aθ bθ in the natural partial order on T.

A twisted torus knot is a knot obtained from a torus knot by twisting adjacent strands by full twists. The twisted torus knots lie in [Formula: see text], the genus 2 Heegaard surface for [Formula: see text]. Primitive/primitive and primitive/Seifert knots lie in [Formula: see text] in a particular way. Dean gives sufficient conditions for the parameters of the twisted torus knots to ensure they are primitive/primitive or primitive/Seifert. Using Dean’s conditions, Doleshal shows that there are infinitely many twisted torus knots that are fibered and that there are twisted torus knots with distinct primitive/Seifert representatives with the same slope in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we extend Doleshal’s results to show there is a four parameter family of positive twisted torus knots. Additionally, we provide new examples of twisted torus knots with distinct representatives with the same surface slope in [Formula: see text].

A rational projective plane ([Formula: see text]) is a simply connected, smooth, closed manifold [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text]. An open problem is to classify the dimensions at which such a manifold exists. The Barge–Sullivan rational surgery realization theorem provides necessary and sufficient conditions that include the Hattori–Stong integrality conditions on the Pontryagin numbers. In this paper, we simplify these conditions and combine them with the signature equation to give a single quadratic residue equation that determines whether a given dimension supports a [Formula: see text]. We then confirm the existence of a [Formula: see text] in two new dimensions and prove several non-existence results using factorization of the numerators of the divided Bernoulli numbers. We also resolve the existence question in the Spin case, and we discuss existence results for the more general class of rational projective spaces.

We consider a problem of realizability of Gauss diagrams by closed plane curves where the plane curves have only double points of transversal self-intersection. We formulate the necessary and sufficient conditions for realizability. These conditions are based only on the parity of double and triple intersections of the chords in the Gauss diagram.

AbstractLet V be a K3 surface defined over a number field k. The Batyrev-Manin conjecture for V states that for every nonempty open subset U of V, there exists a finite set ZU of accumulating rational curves such that the density of rational points on U − ZU is strictly less than the density of rational points on ZU. Thus, the set of rational points of V conjecturally admits a stratification corresponding to the sets ZU for successively smaller sets U.In this paper, in the case that V is a Kummer surface, we prove that the Batyrev-Manin conjecture for V can be reduced to the Batyrev-Manin conjecture for V modulo the endomorphisms of V induced by multiplication by m on the associated abelian surface A. As an application, we use this to show that given some restrictions on A, the set of rational points of V which lie on rational curves whose preimages have geometric genus 2 admits a stratification of Batyrev-Manin type.

We give a brief survey of the so-called Fenchel's problem for the projective plane, that is the problem of existence of finite Galois coverings of the complex projective plane branched along a given divisor and prove the following result: Let p, q be two integers greater than 1 and C be an irreducible plane curve. If there is a surjection of the fundamental group of the complement of C into a free product of cyclic groups of orders p and q, then there is a finite Galois covering of the projective plane branched along C with any given branching index.
