A family of algebraic curves covering a projective variety $X$ is called a web of curves on $X$ if it has only finitely many members through a general point of $X$. A web of curves on $X$ induces a web-structure, in the sense of local differential geometry, in a neighborhood of a general point of $X$. We study how the local differential geometry of the web-structure affects the global algebraic geometry of $X$. Under two geometric assumptions on the web-structure, the pairwise non-integrability condition and the bracket-generating condition, we prove that the local differential geometry determines the global algebraic geometry of $X$, up to generically finite algebraic correspondences. The two geometric assumptions are satisfied, for example, when $X subset {bf P}^N$ is a Fano submanifold of Picard number 1, and the family of lines covering $X$ becomes a web. In this special case, we have a stronger result that the local differential geometry of the web-structure determines $X$ up to biregular equivalences. As an application, we show that if $X, X subset {bf P}^N, dim X geq 3,$ are two such Fano manifolds of Picard number 1, then any surjective morphism $f: X to X$ is an isomorphism.

A nilmanifold is a (left) quotient of a nilpotent Lie group by a cocompact lattice. A hypercomplex structure on a manifold is a triple of complex structure operators satisfying the quaternionic relations. A hypercomplex nilmanifold is a compact quotient of a nilpotent Lie group equipped with a left-invariant hypercomplex structure. Such a manifold admits a whole 2-dimensional sphere $S^2$ of complex structures induced by quaternions. We prove that for any hypercomplex nilmanifold $M$ and a generic complex structure $Lin S^2$, the complex manifold $(M,L)$ has algebraic dimension 0. A stronger result is proven when the hypercomplex nilmanifold is abelian. Consider the Lie algebra of left-invariant vector fields of Hodge type (1,0) on the corresponding nilpotent Lie group with respect to some complex structure $Iin S^2$. A hypercomplex nilmanifold is called abelian when this Lie algebra is abelian. We prove that all complex subvarieties of $(M,L)$ for generic $Lin S^2$ on a hypercomplex abelian nilmanifold are also hypercomplex nilmanifolds.
In this paper, we adapt the differential signature construction to the equivalence problem for complex plane algebraic curves under the actions of the projective group and its subgroups. Given an action of a group $G$, a signature map assigns to a plane algebraic curve another plane algebraic curve (a signature curve) in such a way that two generic curves have the same signatures if and only if they are $G$-equivalent. We prove that for any $G$-action, there exists a pair of rational differential invariants, called classifying invariants, that can be used to construct signatures. We derive a formula for the degree of a signature curve in terms of the degree of the original curve, the size of its symmetry group and some quantities depending on a choice of classifying invariants. For the full projective group, as well as for its affine, special affine and special Euclidean subgroups, we give explicit sets of rational classifying invariants and derive a formula for the degree of the signature curve of a generic curve as a quadratic function of the degree of the original curve. We show that this generic degree is the sharp upper bound.
We explain that in the study of the asymptotic expansion at the origin of a period integral like $gamma$z $omega$/df or of a hermitian period like f =s $rho$.$omega$/df $land$ $omega$ /df the computation of the Bernstein polynomial of the fresco (filtered differential equation) associated to the pair of germs (f, $omega$) gives a better control than the computation of the Bernstein polynomial of the full Brieskorn module of the germ of f at the origin. Moreover, it is easier to compute as it has a better functoriality and smaller degree. We illustrate this in the case where f $in$ C[x 0 ,. .. , x n ] has n + 2 monomials and is not quasi-homogeneous, by giving an explicite simple algorithm to produce a multiple of the Bernstein polynomial when $omega$ is a monomial holomorphic volume form. Several concrete examples are given.
Using Galois theory, we construct explicitly (in all complex dimensions >1) an infinite family of simple complex tori of algebraic dimension 0 with Picard number 0.
This is an expanded version of the two papers Interpolation of Varieties of Minimal Degree and Interpolation Problems: Del Pezzo Surfaces. It is well known that one can find a rational normal curve in $mathbb P^n$ through $n+3$ general points. More recently, it was shown that one can always find nonspecial curves through the expected number of general points and linear spaces. After some expository material regarding scrolls, we consider the generalization of this question to varieties of all dimensions and explain why smooth varieties of minimal degree satisfy interpolation. We give twenty-two equivalent formulations of interpolation. We also classify when Castelnuovo curves satisfy weak interpolation. In the appendix, we prove that del Pezzo surfaces satisfy weak interpolation. Our techniques for proving interpolation include deformation theory, degeneration and specialization, and association.
