Plane curves with small linear orbits, I
(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
(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 ...
