Lefschetz Properties for Higher Order Nagata Idealizations

We study a generalization of Nagata idealization for level algebras. These algebras are standard graded Artinian algebras whose Macaulay dual generator is given explicity as a bigraded polynomial of bidegree $(1,d)$. We consider the algebra associated to polynomials of the same type of bidegree $(d_1,d_2)$. We prove that the geometry of the Nagata hypersurface of order $e$ is very similar to the geometry of the original hypersurface. We study the Lefschetz properties for Nagata idealizations of order $e$, proving that WLP holds if $d_1\geq d_2$. We give a complete description of the associated algebra in the monomial square free case.

Laplace equations, Lefschetz properties and line arrangements

In this note we generalize the main result in [DIV: R. Di Gennaro, G. Ilardi, J. Valles, Singular hypersurfaces characterizing the Lefschetz properties J. Lond. Math. Soc. (2) 89 (2014), no. 1, 194-212] on artinian ideals failing Lefschetz properties, varieties satisfying Laplace equations and existence of suitable singular hypersurfaces. Moreover we characterize the minimally generation of ideals generated by power of linear forms by the configuration of their dual points in the projective plane and we use this result to improve some propositions on line arrangments and Strong Lefschetz property (SLP) at range 2 in [DIV]. The starting point was an example in [CHMN: D. Cook II, B. Harbourne, J. Migliore, U. Nagel, Line arrangements and configurations of points with an unusual geometric property (2017), arXiv:1602.02300v2]. Finally we show the equivalence among failing SLP, Laplace equations and some unexpected curves in [CHMN].

On higher Gauss maps

We prove that the general fibre of the $i$-th Gauss map has dimension $m$ if and only if at the general point the $(i+1)$-th fundamental form consists of cones with vertex a fixed $\mathbb P^{m-1}$, extending a known theorem for the usual Gauss map. We prove this via a recursive formula for expressing higher fundamental forms. We also show some consequences of these results.

Singular hypersurfaces characterizing the Lefschetz properties

In the paper untitled "Laplace equations and the Weak Lefschetz Property" the authors highlight the link between rational varieties satisfying a Laplace equation and artinian ideals that fail the Weak Lefschetz property. Continuing their work we extend this link to the more general situation of artinian ideals failing the Strong Lefschetz Property. We characterize the failure of SLP (that includes WLP) by the existence of special singular hypersurfaces (cones for WLP). This characterization allows us to solve three problems posed by Migliore and Nagel and to give new examples of ideals failing the SLP. Finally, line arrangements are related to artinian ideals and the unstability of the associated derivation bundle is linked with the failure of SLP. Moreover we reformulate the so-called Terao's conjecture for free line arrangements in terms of artinian ideals failing the SLP.

On varieties with higher osculating defect

In this paper, using the method of moving frames, we generalise some of Terracini's results on varieties with tangent defect. In particular, we characterise varieties with higher order osculating defect in terms of Jacobians of higher fundamental forms and moreover we characterise varieties with "small" higher fundamental forms as contained in scrolls.

Puiseux power series solutions for systems of equations

We give an algorithm to compute term by term multivariate Puiseux series expansions of series arising as local parametrizations of zeroes of systems of algebraic equations at singular points. The algorithm is an extension of Newton's method for plane algebraic curves replacing the Newton polygon by the tropical variety of the ideal generated by the system. As a corollary we deduce a property of tropical varieties of quasi-ordinary singularities.

Geometry of syzygies via Poncelet varieties

We consider the Grassmannian $\mathbb{G}r(k,n)$ of $(k+1)$-dimensional linear subspaces of $V_n=H^0({¶^1},Ø_{¶^1}(n))$. We define $\frak{X}_{k,r,d}$ as the classifying space of the $k$-dimensional linear systems of degree $n$ on $¶^1$ whose basis realize a fixed number of polynomial relations of fixed degree, say a fixed number of syzygies of a certain degree. The first result of this paper is the computation of the dimension of $\frak{X}_{k,r,d}$. In the second part we make a link between $\frak{X}_{k,r,d}$ and the Poncelet varieties. In particular, we prove that the existence of linear syzygies implies the existence of singularities on the Poncelet varieties.
