    • Plane curves with small linear orbits, I 

      Aluffi, Paoli; Faber, Carel (Association des Annales de l'Institut Fourier, 2000)
      In this paper we compute the degree of the closure of the linear orbits of most curves with positive dimensional stabilizers. Our tool is a nonsingular variety dominating the orbit closure, which we construct by a blow-up ...
    • Uncrumpled: A scheme for bounding the pinch points on a variety of projected surfaces 

      Cartisano, Adam (2023-05)
      Let X be a smooth surface and let phi be a finitely ramified map from X to P^N with N at least 4, which is birational onto its image Y = phi(X), and with Y non-degenerate in P^N. In this paper, we produce a lower bound for ...
