A note on higher order Gauss maps

We study Gauss maps of order $k$, associated to a projective variety $X$ embedded in projective space via a line bundle $L.$ We show that if $X$ is a smooth, complete complex variety and $L$ is a $k$-jet spanned line bundle on $X$, with $k\geq 1,$ then the Gauss map of order $k$ has finite fibers, unless $X=\mathbb{P}^n$ is embedded by the Veronese embedding of order $k$. In the case where $X$ is a toric variety, we give a combinatorial description of the Gauss maps of order $k$, its image and the generic fibers.

Multidimensional Persistence and Noise

In this paper we study multidimensional persistence modules [5,13] via what we call tame functors and noise systems. A noise system leads to a pseudo-metric topology on the category of tame functors. We show how this pseudo-metric can be used to identify persistent features of compact multidimensional persistence modules. To count such features we introduce the feature counting invariant and prove that assigning this invariant to compact tame functors is a 1-Lipschitz operation. For 1-dimensional persistence, we explain how, by choosing an appropriate noise system, the feature counting invariant identifies the same persistent features as the classical barcode construction.

Bounded Negativity and Arrangements of Lines

The Bounded Negativity Conjecture predicts that for any smooth complex surface $X$ there exists a lower bound for the selfintersection of reduced divisors on $X$. This conjecture is open. It is also not known if the existence of such a lower bound is invariant in the birational equivalence class of $X$. In the present note we introduce certain constants $H(X)$ which measure in effect the variance of the lower bounds in the birational equivalence class of $X$. We focus on rational surfaces and relate the value of $H({\mathbb P}^2)$ to certain line arrangements. Our main result is Theorem 3.3 and the main open challenge is Problem 3.10.

Local positivity of line bundles on smooth toric varieties and Cayley polytopes

For any non-negative integer $k$ the $k$-th osculating dimension at a given point $x$ of a variety $X$ embedded in projective space gives a measure of the local positivity of order $k$ at that point. In this paper we show that a smooth toric embedding having maximal $k$-th osculating dimension, but not maximal $(k+1)$-th osculating dimension, at every point is associated to a Cayley polytope of order $k$. This result generalises an earlier characterisation by David Perkinson. In addition we prove that the above assumptions are equivalent to requiring that the Seshadri constant is exactly $k$ at every point of $X$, generalising a result of Atsushi Ito.

A classification of smooth convex 3-polytopes with at most 16 lattice points

We provide a complete classification up to isomorphism of all smooth convex lattice 3-polytopes with at most 16 lattice points. There exist in total 103 different polytopes meeting these criteria. Of these, 99 are strict Cayley polytopes and the remaining 4 are obtained as inverse stellar subdivisions of such polytopes. We derive a classification, up to isomorphism, of all smooth embeddings of toric threefolds in $\mathbb{P}^N$ where $N\le 15$. Again we have in total 103 such embeddings. Of these, 99 are projective bundles embedded in $\mathbb{P}^N$ and the remaining 4 are blow-ups of such toric threefolds.
