OblInts

OblInts, short for Obligatory Intersections, is a term used in some areas of mathematics to describe certain types of geometric configurations or topological features. The core idea behind OblInts relates to situations where the existence of one object or property necessitates the presence of another. This concept can appear in various mathematical contexts, including algebraic geometry, differential geometry, and topology.

In algebraic geometry, OblInts might refer to situations where the intersection of certain algebraic varieties must occur at specific points or along particular subvarieties due to the defining equations of those varieties. The "obligatory" nature arises from the constraints imposed by the algebraic relationships.

In differential geometry, OblInts could relate to how curves or surfaces must intersect or be tangent to each other under certain conditions. For instance, the curvature or torsion of a curve might dictate that it must intersect another curve at a particular angle or point if they are to exist in a specific space.

Topologically, OblInts may arise when the fundamental properties of a space or manifold require certain linkages or intersections between its constituent parts. This could involve the intersection patterns of cycles or the connectivity of different components within a complex structure. The precise definition and application of OblInts can vary depending on the specific mathematical field and the problem being studied.
