Elementary (-1)-curves of P^3

In this note we deal with rational curves in P^3 which are images of a line by means of a finite sequence of cubo-cubic Cremona transformations. We prove that these curves can always be obtained applying to the line a sequence of such transformations increasing at each step the degree of the curve. As a corollary we get a result about curves that can give speciality for linear systems of P^3.

Special systems through double points on an algebraic surface

Let S be a smooth algebraic surface satisfying the following property: H^i(\oc_S(C))=0 (i=1,2) for any irreducible and reduced curve C of S. The aim of this paper is to provide a characterization of special linear systems on S which are singular along a set of double points in general position. As an application, the dimension of such systems is evaluated in case S is an Abelian, an Enriques, a K3 or an anticanonical rational surface.

A note on the very ampleness of complete linear systems on blowings-up of P^3

In this note we consider the blowing-up X of P^3 along r general points of the anticanonical divisor of a smooth quadric in P^3. Given a complete linear system |L| = |dH - m_1 E_1 -...- m_r E_r| on X, with H the pull-back of a plane in P^3 and E_i the exceptional divisor corresponding to P_i, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the very ampleness (resp. base point freeness and non-speciality) of L. As a corollary we obtain a sufficient condition for the very ampleness of such a complete linear system on the blowing-up of P^3 along r general points.

A conjecture on special linear systems of P^3

In this note we consider the behavior of linear systems of P^3 through fat points under a cubo-cubic Cremona transformation. This allows us to produce a class of special systems which we conjecture to be the only ones.

On a class of special linear systems of P^3

In this paper we deal with linear systems of P^3 through fat points. We consider the behavior of these systems under a cubo-cubic Cremona transformation that allows us to produce a class of special systems which we conjecture to be the only ones.

Degeneration of linear systems through fat points on K3 surfaces

In this paper we introduce a technique to degenerate K3 surfaces and linear systems through fat points in general position on K3 surfaces. Using this degeneration we show that on generic K3 surfaces it is enough to prove that linear systems with one fat point are non-special in order to obtain the non-speciality of homogeneous linear systems through n = 4^u9^w fat points in general position. Moreover, we use this degeneration to obtain a result for homogeneous linear systems through n = 4^u9^w fat points in general position on a general quartic surface in P^3.

Special linear Systems on Toric Varieties

We consider linear systems on toric varieties of any dimension, with invariant base points, giving a characterization of special linear systems. We then make a new conjecture for linear systems on rational surfaces.

Linear systems on generic K3 surfaces

In this paper we prove the equivalence of two conjectures on linear systems through fat points on a generic K3 surface. The first conjecture is exactly as Segre conjecture on the projective plane. Whereas the second characterizes such linear system and can be compared to the Gimigliano-Harbourne-Hirschowitz conjecture.

Representation of matroids

In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient criterion for representability of a matroid over an algebraic closed field. This leads to an algorithm, based on an extension of Groebner Bases, in order to decide if a given matroid is representable over such a field.

A very ampleness result

Let (M,L) be a polarized manifold and let G(M,L) be the graded algebra generated by H^0(M,iL) in degree i. The aim of this paper is to establish a connection between the generators of G(M,L) and the very ampleness of the line bundle rL. Some applications are given.
