V751 Cyg and V Sge as transient supersoft X-ray sources

I review the observational evidence for luminous, soft X-ray emission during optical low-states in the two cataclysmic variables V751 Cyg and V Sge, and discuss the possible link to the canonical supersoft X-ray sources.Comment: 6 pages with newarcrc.sty; inv. talk given at the 60th birthday Symp. in honour of Brian Warner, Oxford, April 1999, to appear in New Astronomy Reviews (Elsevier), eds.

On the tangent space to the Hilbert scheme of points in P3

In this paper we study the tangent space to the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^3$, motivated by Haiman's work on $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^2$ and by a long-standing conjecture of Brian\c{c}on and Iarrobino on the most singular point in $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^n$. For points parametrizing monomial subschemes, we consider a decomposition of the tangent space into six distinguished subspaces, and show that a fat point exhibits an extremal behavior in this respect. This decomposition is also used to characterize smooth monomial points on the Hilbert scheme. We prove the first Brian\c{c}on-Iarrobino conjecture up to a factor of 4/3, and improve the known asymptotic bound on the dimension of $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^3$. Furthermore, we construct infinitely many counterexamples to the second Brian\c{c}on-Iarrobino conjecture, and we also settle a weaker conjecture of Sturmfels in the negative.Comment: 19 pages.
