For a split reductive group $G$ we realise identities in the Grothendieck group of $\widehat{G}$-representation in terms of cycle relations between certain closed subschemes inside the affine grassmannian. These closed subschemes are…

We discuss a surprising relationship between the partially ordered set of Newton points associated to an affine Schubert cell and the quantum cohomology of the complex flag variety. The main theorem provides a combinatorial formula for the…

We introduce partial duality of hypermaps, which include the classical Euler-Poincar\'e duality as a particular case. Combinatorially, hypermaps may be described in one of three ways: as three involutions on the set of flags (bi-rotation…

The (directed) Bruhat graph $\hat{\Gamma}(u,v)$ has the elements of the Bruhat interval $[u,v]$ as vertices, with directed edges given by multiplication by a reflection. Famously, $\hat{\Gamma}(e,v)$ is regular if and only if the Schubert…

Let $G$ be a nontrivial permutation group of degree $n$. If $G$ is transitive, then a theorem of Jordan states that $G$ has a derangement. Equivalently, a finite group is never the union of conjugates of a proper subgroup. If $G$ is…

We develop a systematic method to classify connected \'etale algebras $A$'s in (possibly degenerate) pre-modular category $\mathcal B$. In particular, we find the category of $A$-modules, $\mathcal B_A$, have ranks bounded from above by…

Geometric modeling by constraints leads to large systems of algebraic equations. This paper studies bipartite graphs underlaid by systems of equations. It shows how these graphs make possible to polynomially decompose these systems into…

In this paper we prove that for any commutative (but in general non-associative) algebra $A$ with an invariant symmetric non-degenerate bilinear form there is a graded vertex algebra $V = V_0 \oplus V_2 \oplus V_3\oplus ...$, such that…

An (edge) decomposition of a graph $G$ is a set of subgraphs of $G$ whose edge sets partition the edge set of $G$. Here we show, for each odd $\ell \geq 5$, that any graph $G$ of sufficiently large order $n$ with minimum degree at least…

The Grassmannian, which is the manifold of all $k$-dimensional subspaces in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, was decomposed through three equivalent methods connecting combinatorial geometries, Schubert cells and convex polyhedra by…

A specialization of a K3 surface with Picard rank one to a K3 with rank two defines a vanishing class of order two in the Brauer group of the general K3 surface. We give the B-field invariants of this class. We apply this to the K3 double…

In this paper we study the operation of cutting off edges of a simple $3$-polytope $P$ along the graph $\Gamma$. We give the criterion when the resulting polytope is simple and when it is flag. As a corollary we prove the analog of…

Degeneracy loci of morphisms between vector bundles have been used in a wide variety of situations. We introduce a vast generalization of this notion, based on orbit closures of algebraic groups in their linear representations. A preferred…

We tackle the Riemann-Hilbert problem on the Riemann sphere as stalk-wise logarithmic modifications of the classical R\"ohrl-Deligne vector bundle. We show that the solutions of the Riemann-Hilbert problem are in bijection with some…

In this paper, we consider affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties $X_w(b)$ and their certain union $X(\mu,b)$ inside the affine flag variety of a reductive group. Several important results in the study of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties have…

Let $k$ be an arbitrary field, $\Lambda$ be a $k$-algebra and $V$ be a $\Lambda$-module. When it exists, the universal deformation ring $R(\Lambda,V)$ of $V$ is a $k$-algebra whose local homomorphisms to $R$ parametrize the lifts of $V$ up…

This paper determines the relationship between the geometry of retractions and the combinatorics of folded galleries for arbitrary affine buildings, and so provides a unified framework to study orbits in affine flag varieties. We introduce…

In the first half of this article, we review the Steinberg theory for double flag varieties for symmetric pairs. For a special case of the symmetric space of type AIII, we will consider $ X = GL_{2n}/P_{(n,n)} \times GL_n / B_n^+ \times…

We extend the results on the graph closures of the birational maps between projective spaces and Grassmannians to the case of PBW degenerate flag varieties. The advantage of the PBW degenerate flags (as opposed to their classical analogues)…

In this paper, we give an explicit description about the second Hochschild cohomology groups of bipartite Brauer graph algebras with trivial grading. Based on this, we provide geometric interpretations of deformations associated to some…
