Complex Projective

We estimate the dimensions of the spaces of holomorphic sections of certain line bundles to give improved lower bounds on the index of complex isotropic harmonic maps to complex projective space from the sphere and torus, and in some cases from higher genus surfaces.

AbstractLet M 2n be a closed smooth manifold homotopy equivalent to the complex projective space ℂP(n). It is known that the first Pontrjagin class p 1(M) of M 2n has the form (n+1+24α(M))u 2 for some integer α(M) where u is a generator of H 2(M; ℤ). We prove that α(M) is even when n is even but not divisible by 64.

Let CPn denote the complex projective space of complex dimension n. If k < n, CPk−1 is embedded as the (2k –1)-skeleton of CPn and we denote by , the stunted projective space, the quotient of CPn. by CPk−1.

Practical Implications

In the context of multiple view geometry, images of static scenes are modeled as linear projections from a projective space P^3 to a projective plane P^2 and, similarly, videos or images of suitable dynamic or segmented scenes can be modeled as linear projections from P^k to P^h, with k>h>=2. In those settings, the projective reconstruction of a scene consists in recovering the position of the projected objects and the projections themselves from their images, after identifying many enough correspondences between the images. A critical locus for the reconstruction problem is a configuration of points and of centers of projections, in the ambient space, where the reconstruction of a scene fails. Critical loci turn out to be suitable algebraic varieties. In this paper we investigate those critical loci which are hypersurfaces in high dimension complex projective spaces, and we determine their equations. Moreover, to give evidence of some practical implications of the existence of these critical loci, we perform a simulated experiment to test the instability phenomena for the reconstruction of a scene, near a critical hypersurface.
