Let X be a nonsingular quasi-projective complex algebraic variety and let E be an algebraic vector bundle on X of rank r ≥ 2. The pullback of E by the blowup of X at a suitably chosen nonsingular subvariety of X of codimension ...

We show that symmetry defect hypersurfaces for two generic members of the irreducible algebraic family of n-dimensional smooth irreducible subvarieties in general position in C²ⁿ are homeomorphic and they have homeomorphic ...
