متن کاملSingularities of the Moduli Space of Level Curves
We describe the singular locus of the compactification of the moduli space Rg,` of curves of genus g paired with an `-torsion point in their Jacobian. Generalising previous work for ` ≤ 2, we also describe the sublocus of noncanonical singularities for any positive integer `. For g ≥ 4 and ` = 3, 4, 6, this allows us to provide a lifting result on pluricanonical forms playing an essential role ...
متن کاملShortening Curves on Surfaces
METHODS of shortening a curve in a manifold have been used to establish the existence of closed geodesics, and in particular of simple closed geodesics on 2-spheres. For this purpose, a curve evolution process should (a) not increase the number of self-intersections of a curve, (b) exist for all time or until a curve collapses to a point, (c) shorten curves sufficiently fast so that curves whic...
متن کاملSingularities of rational Bézier curves
We prove that if an nth degree rational Bézier curve has a singular point, then it belongs to the two (n− 1)th degree rational Bézier curves defined in the (n− 1)th step of the de Casteljau algorithm. Moreover, both curves are tangent at the singular point. A procedure to construct Bézier curves with singularities of any order is given. 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملClosed Curves and Space Curves
So far we have discussed only ‘local’ properties of (plane) curves. These properties depend only on the behavior of a curve near a given point, and not on the ‘global’ shape of the curve. Now let us look at some global results about curves. The most famous, and perhaps the oldest, of these is the ‘isoperimetric inequality’, which relates the length of a certain ‘closed’ curve to the area it con...
