The famous Mather-Yau theorem in singularity theory yields a bijection of isomorphy classes of germs of isolated hypersurface singularities and their respective Tjurina algebras.
This result has been generalized by T. Gaffney and H. Hauser to singularities of isolated singularity type. Due to the fact that both results do not have a constructive proof, it is the objective of this thesis to extract explicit information about hypersurface singularities from their Tjurina algebras.
First we generalize the result by Gaffney-Hauser to germs of hypersurface singularities, which are strongly Euler-homogeneous at the origin. Afterwards we investigate the Lie algebra structure of the module of logarithmic derivations of Tjurina algebra while considering the theory of graded analytic algebras by G. Scheja and H. Wiebe. We use the aforementioned theory to show that germs of hypersurface singularities with positively graded Tjurina algebras are strongly Euler-homogeneous at the origin. We deduce the classification of hypersurface singularities with Stanley-Reisner Tjurina ideals.
The notion of freeness and holonomicity play an important role in the investigation of properties of the aforementioned singularities. Both notions have been introduced by K. Saito in 1980. We show that hypersurface singularities with Stanley--Reisner Tjurina ideals are holonomic and have a free singular locus. Furthermore, we present a Las Vegas algorithm, which decides whether a given zero-dimensional \(\mathbb{C}\)-algebra is the Tjurina algebra of a quasi-homogeneous isolated hypersurface singularity. The algorithm is implemented in the computer algebra system OSCAR.
Numerical Godeaux surfaces are minimal surfaces of general type with the smallest possible numerical invariants. It is known that the torsion group of a numerical Godeaux surface is cyclic of order \(m\leq 5\). A full classification has been given for the cases \(m=3,4,5\) by the work of Reid and Miyaoka. In each case, the corresponding moduli space is 8-dimensional and irreducible.
There exist explicit examples of numerical Godeaux surfaces for the orders \(m=1,2\), but a complete classification for these surfaces is still missing.
In this thesis we present a construction method for numerical Godeaux surfaces which is based on homological algebra and computer algebra and which arises from an experimental approach by Schreyer. The main idea is to consider the canonical ring \(R(X)\) of a numerical Godeaux surface \(X\) as a module over some graded polynomial ring \(S\). The ring \(S\) is chosen so that \(R(X)\) is finitely generated as an \(S\)-module and a Gorenstein \(S\)-algebra of codimension 3. We prove that the canonical ring of any numerical Godeaux surface, considered as an \(S\)-module, admits a minimal free resolution whose middle map is alternating. Moreover, we show that a partial converse of this statement is true under some additional conditions.
Afterwards we use these results to construct (canonical rings of) numerical Godeaux surfaces. Hereby, we restrict our study to surfaces whose bicanonical system has no fixed component but 4 distinct base points, in the following referred to as marked numerical Godeaux surfaces.
The particular interest of this thesis lies on marked numerical Godeaux surfaces whose torsion group is trivial. For these surfaces we study the fibration of genus 4 over \(\mathbb{P}^1\) induced by the bicanonical system. Catanese and Pignatelli showed that the general fibre is non-hyperelliptic and that the number \(\tilde{h}\) of hyperelliptic fibres is bounded by 3. The two explicit constructions of numerical Godeaux surfaces with a trivial torsion group due to Barlow and Craighero-Gattazzo, respectively, satisfy \(\tilde{h} = 2\).
With the method from this thesis, we construct an 8-dimensional family of numerical Godeaux surfaces with a trivial torsion group and whose general element satisfy \(\tilde{h}=0\).
Furthermore, we establish a criterion for the existence of hyperelliptic fibres in terms of a minimal free resolution of \(R(X)\). Using this criterion, we verify experimentally the
existence of a numerical Godeaux surface with \(\tilde{h}=1\).
Das Ziel dieser Dissertation ist die Entwicklung und Implementation eines Algorithmus zur Berechnung von tropischen Varietäten über allgemeine bewertete Körper. Die Berechnung von tropischen Varietäten über Körper mit trivialer Bewertung ist ein hinreichend gelöstes Problem. Hierfür kombinieren die Autoren Bogart, Jensen, Speyer, Sturmfels und Thomas eindrucksvoll klassische Techniken der Computeralgebra mit konstruktiven Methoden der konvexer Geometrie.
Haben wir allerdings einen Grundkörper mit nicht-trivialer Bewertung, wie zum Beispiel den Körper der \(p\)-adischen Zahlen \(\mathbb{Q}_p\), dann stößt die konventionelle Gröbnerbasentheorie scheinbar an ihre Grenzen. Die zugrundeliegenden Monomordnungen sind nicht geeignet um Problemstellungen zu untersuchen, die von einer nicht-trivialen Bewertung auf den Koeffizienten abhängig sind. Dies führte zu einer Reihe von Arbeiten, welche die gängige Gröbnerbasentheorie modifizieren um die Bewertung des Grundkörpers einzubeziehen.\[\phantom{newline}\]
In dieser Arbeit präsentieren wir einen alternativen Ansatz und zeigen, wie sich die Bewertung mittels einer speziell eingeführten Variable emulieren lässt, so dass eine Modifikation der klassischen Werkzeuge nicht notwendig ist.
Im Rahmen dessen wird Theorie der Standardbasen auf Potenzreihen über einen Koeffizientenring verallgemeinert. Hierbei wird besonders Wert darauf gelegt, dass alle Algorithmen bei polynomialen Eingabedaten mit ihren klassischen Pendants übereinstimmen, sodass für praktische Zwecke auf bereits etablierte Softwaresysteme zurückgegriffen werden kann. Darüber hinaus wird die Konstruktion des Gröbnerfächers sowie die Technik des Gröbnerwalks für leicht inhomogene Ideale eingeführt. Dies ist notwendig, da bei der Einführung der neuen Variable die Homogenität des Ausgangsideal gebrochen wird.\[\phantom{newline}\]
Alle Algorithmen wurden in Singular implementiert und sind als Teil der offiziellen Distribution erhältlich. Es ist die erste Implementation, welches in der Lage ist tropische Varietäten mit \(p\)-adischer Bewertung auszurechnen. Im Rahmen der Arbeit entstand ebenfalls ein Singular Paket für konvexe Geometrie, sowie eine Schnittstelle zu Polymake.
In the first part of this thesis we study algorithmic aspects of tropical intersection theory. We analyse how divisors and intersection products on tropical cycles can actually be computed using polyhedral geometry. The main focus is the study of moduli spaces, where the underlying combinatorics of the varieties involved allow a much more efficient way of computing certain tropical cycles. The algorithms discussed here have been implemented in an extension for polymake, a software for polyhedral computations.
In the second part we apply the algorithmic toolkit developed in the first part to the study of tropical double Hurwitz cycles. Hurwitz cycles are a higher-dimensional generalization of Hurwitz numbers, which count covers of \(\mathbb{P}^1\) by smooth curves of a given genus with a certain fixed ramification behaviour. Double Hurwitz numbers provide a strong connection between various mathematical disciplines, including algebraic geometry, representation theory and combinatorics. The tropical cycles have a rather complex combinatorial nature, so it is very difficult to study them purely "by hand". Being able to compute examples has been very helpful
in coming up with theoretical results. Our main result states that all marked and unmarked Hurwitz cycles are connected in codimension one and that for a generic choice of simple ramification points the marked cycle is a multiple of an irreducible cycle. In addition we provide computational examples to show that this is the strongest possible statement.
Numerical Algorithms in Algebraic Geometry with Implementation in Computer Algebra System SINGULAR
(2011)
Polynomial systems arise in many applications: robotics, kinematics, chemical kinetics,
computer vision, truss design, geometric modeling, and many others. Many polynomial
systems have solutions sets, called algebraic varieties, having several irreducible
components. A fundamental problem of the numerical algebraic geometry is to decompose
such an algebraic variety into its irreducible components. The witness point sets are
the natural numerical data structure to encode irreducible algebraic varieties.
Sommese, Verschelde and Wampler represented the irreducible algebraic decomposition of
an affine algebraic variety \(X\) as a union of finite disjoint sets \(\cup_{i=0}^{d}W_i=\cup_{i=0}^{d}\left(\cup_{j=1}^{d_i}W_{ij}\right)\) called numerical irreducible decomposition. The \(W_i\) correspond to the pure i-dimensional components, and the \(W_{ij}\) represent the i-dimensional irreducible components. The numerical irreducible decomposition is implemented in BERTINI.
We modify this concept using partially Gröbner bases, triangular sets, local dimension, and
the so-called zero sum relation. We present in the second chapter the corresponding
algorithms and their implementations in SINGULAR. We give some examples and timings,
which show that the modified algorithms are more efficient if the number of variables is not
too large. For a large number of variables BERTINI is more efficient.
Leykin presented an algorithm to compute the embedded components of an algebraic variety
based on the concept of the deflation of an algebraic variety.
Depending on the modified algorithm mentioned above, we will present in the third chapter an
algorithm and its implementation in SINGULAR to compute the embedded components.
The irreducible decomposition of algebraic varieties allows us to formulate in the fourth
chapter some numerical algebraic algorithms.
In the last chapter we present two SINGULAR libraries. The first library is used to compute
the numerical irreducible decomposition and the embedded components of an algebraic variety.
The second library contains the procedures of the algorithms in the last Chapter to test
inclusion, equality of two algebraic varieties, to compute the degree of a pure i-dimensional
component, and the local dimension.
