چکیده
Let X be a smooth aane variety of dimension n > 2. Assume that the group H 1 (X; Z) is a torsion group and that (X) = 1. Let Y be a projectively smooth aane hypersurface Y C n+1 of degree d > 1, which is smooth at innnity. Then there is no injective polynomial mapping f : X ! Y: This contradicts a result of Peretz 5].

M ar 2 00 3 3 - dimensional affine hypersurfaces admitting a pointwise SO ( 2 ) - or Z 3 - symmetry
3-dimensional affine hypersurfaces admitting a pointwise SO(2)-or Z 3-symmetry Abstract In (equi-)affine differential geometry, the most important algebraic invariants are the affine (Blaschke) metric h, the affine shape operator S and the difference tensor K. A hypersurface is said to admit a point-wise symmetry if at every point there exists a linear transformation preserving the affine metri...
متن کاملThe Monge-Ampère equation and its geometric applications
In this paper we present the basic theory of the Monge-Ampère equation together with a selection of geometric applications, mainly to affine geometry. First we introduce the Monge-Ampère measure and the resultant notion of generalized solution of Aleksandrov. Then we discuss a priori estimates and regularity, followed by the existence and uniqueness of solutions to various boundary value proble...
متن کاملMinimization with the Affine Normal Direction
In this paper, we consider minimization of a real-valued function f over R and study the choice of the affine normal of the level set hypersurfaces of f as a direction for minimization. The affine normal vector arises in affine differential geometry when answering the question of what hypersurfaces are invariant under unimodular affine transformations. It can be computed at points of a hypersur...
متن کاملOn the Number of Affine Equivalence Classes of Spherical Tube Hypersurfaces
We consider Levi non-degenerate tube hypersurfaces in Cn+1 that are (k, n−k)-spherical, i.e., locally CR-equivalent to the hyperquadric with Levi form of the signature (k, n − k), with n ≤ 2k. We show that the number of affine equivalence classes of such hypersurfaces is infinite (in fact, uncountable) in the following cases: (i) k = n − 2, n ≥ 7; (ii) k = n − 3, n ≥ 7; (iii) k ≤ n − 4. For all...
متن کاملThe Fundamental Theorems of Curves and Hypersurfaces in Centro-affine Geometry
The motivation of this paper is to find formulations of the local rigidity theorems for centro-affine curves and hypersurfaces that are amenable to direct application to problems in control theory. Élie Cartan’s method of moving frames develops the solutions in a natural way. The case of centro-affine curves has previously appeared only for certain low dimensions. This is the first time a theor...
