Syzygies of Veronese Embeddings

We prove that the Veronese embedding _O ⁿ (d): ^{n N} with n2, d3 does not satisfy property N _p (according to Green and Lazarsfeld) if p3d–2. We make the conjecture that also the converse holds. This is true for n=2 and for n=d=3.     

A Conjecture on Veronese Generating Submanifolds

In this paper,the higher dimensional conjecture on Veronese generating subman-ifolds proposed by Prof. SUN Zhen-zu is generalized to Pseudo-Euclidean Space L1(m+1), it is proved that in the higher dimentional Lorentz Space L1(m+1), the generating submanifolds of an n dimentional submanifold of Pseudo-Riemannian unit sphere S1m is an n+1 dimentional minimal submanifold of S1(m+1) in L1(m+2) and is of 1-type in L1(m+2).     

Veronese Varieties Over Finite Fields and Their Projections

Inthis paper Veronese varieties of degree d over aGalois field are studied. We also show that some of known capsembedded into classical varieties always are projections of Veronesevarieties.     

On Two Conjectures Concerning the Veronese Generating submanifolds

The notion of finite type submanifolds was introduced by B.Y.Chen.In this paper the con-jectures on scalar curvature of Veronses generating submanifolds in E^6 and the minimal conjecture on Veronese space-like submanifold ∑ and Veronese pseudo-Riemannian submanifold-↑∑ in E1^6 are proved.We have ∑ is minimal in H^5.-↑∑ is minimal in S1^5,∑ and -↑∑ are of 1-type in E1^6.     

The Veronese surface revisited

Recently, the classical Veronese surface reemerged in the context of the application oriented field of Computer Aided Geometric Design due to its interesting relation to rational triangular Bézier surfaces. This motivated the investigation of Veronese varieties presented in this paper. It is shown that the general degree Veronese surface forms a singular subvariety of certain algebraic varieties. This general result is then further examined and extended in the low-degree cases . Received 3 May 2000.

Veronese embedding and two–character sets

Two infinite families of two–character sets in PG(5,q) arising from the Veronese surface of PG(5,q) are constructed.     

Strong embeddings of minimum genus

A “folklore conjecture, probably due to Tutte” (as described in [P.D. Seymour, Sums of circuits, in: Graph Theory and Related Topics (Proc. Conf., Univ. Waterloo, 1977), Academic Press, 1979, pp. 341-355]) asserts that every bridgeless cubic graph can be embedded on a surface of its own genus in such a way that the face boundaries are cycles of the graph. Sporadic counterexamples to this conjecture have been known since the late 1970s. In this paper we consider closed 2-cell embeddings of graphs and show that certain (cubic) graphs (of any fixed genus) have closed 2-cell embedding only in surfaces whose genus is very large (proportional to the order of these graphs), thus providing a plethora of strong counterexamples to the above conjecture. The main result yielding such counterexamples may be of independent interest.     

Minimal full polarized embeddings of dual polar spaces

Let Δ be a thick dual polar space of rank n ≥ 2 admitting a full polarized embedding e in a finite-dimensional projective space Σ, i.e., for every point x of Δ, e maps the set of points of Δ at non-maximal distance from x into a hyperplane e∗(x) of Σ. Using a result of Kasikova and Shult [11], we are able the show that there exists up to isomorphisms a unique full polarized embedding of Δ of minimal dimension. We also show that e∗ realizes a full polarized embedding of Δ into a subspace of the dual of Σ, and that e∗ is isomorphic to the minimal full polarized embedding of Δ. In the final section, we will determine the minimal full polarized embeddings of the finite dual polar spaces DQ(2n,q), DQ ⁻(2n+1,q), DH(2n−1,q ²) and DW(2n−1,q) (q odd), but the latter only for n≤ 5. We shall prove that the minimal full polarized embeddings of DQ(2n,q), DQ ⁻(2n+1,q) and DH(2n−1,q ²) are the `natural' ones, whereas this is not always the case for DW(2n−1, q).B.

A new approach to constructing exponentially many nonisomorphic nonorientable triangular embeddings of complete graphs

We prove a theorem that for an integer s?0, if 12s+7 is a prime number, then the number of nonisomorphic face 3-colorable nonorientable triangular embeddings of K_n, where n=(12s+7)(6s+7), is at least . By some number-theoretic arguments there are an infinite number of integers s satisfying the hypothesis of the theorem. The theorem is the first known example of constructing at least 2^αn?+o(n?), ?>1, nonisomorphic nonorientable triangular embeddings of K_n for n=6t+1, . To prove the theorem, we use a new approach to constructing nonisomorphic triangular embeddings of complete graphs. The approach combines a cut-and-paste technique and the index one current graph technique. A new connection between Steiner triple systems and constructing triangular embeddings of complete graphs is given.
