Characterization of rational ruled surfaces
The ruled surface is a typical modeling surface in computer aided geometric design. It is usually given in the standard parametric form. However, it can also be in the forms than the standard one. For these forms, it is necessary to determine and find the standard form.

Tori and surfaces violating a local-to-global principle for rationality
We show that even within a class of varieties where the Brauer–Manin obstruction is the only obstruction to the local-to-global principle for the existence of rational points (Hasse principle), this obstruction, even in a stronger, base change invariant ...

Rational Parametrization of Surfaces
A rational surface is an algebraic surface birationally isomorphic to \( {\mathbb P}^{2} \). The author investigates the computational problems of rational parametrization of algebraic surfaces and formulates several algorithms for the purpose. He describes preliminary techniques (quadratic surfaces, inversion of birational maps, parametrization of a ...

A Green's function for diffraction by a rational wedge
In this paper we derive an expression for the point source Green's function for the reduced wave equation, valid in an angular sector whose angle is equal to a rational multiple of 77.

We constructed several families of elliptic K3 surfaces with Mordell-Weil groups of ranks from 1 to 4. We studied F-theory compactifications on these elliptic K3 surfaces times a K3 surface.

Implicitization of Rational Parametric Surfaces
Let \(S\subset \mathbb{C}^3\) be a surface parametrized by a map \(F_a(s,t)= (f_1(s,t),\;f_2(s,t),\;f_3(s,t))\), where \(f_i\) are polynomials in \(s\) and \(t\). The implicitization process would find an equation \(f(x,y,z)=0\) such that the zero locus of the equation, \(W=\{(x,y, z)\mid f(x,y,z) =0\}\), is the smallest subset \(W\subset \mathbb{C}^3\)

Computation of the degree of rational surface parametrizations [PDF]
A rational affine parametrization of an algebraic surface establishes a rational correspondence of the affine plane with the surface. We consider the problem of computing the degree of such a rational map. In general, determining the degree of a rational

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Nonnegativity Preserving Interpolation by C1 Bivariate Rational Spline Surface
This paper is concerned with the nonnegativity preserving interpolation of data on rectangular grids. The function is a kind of bivariate rational interpolation spline with parameters, which is C1 in the whole interpolation region.
