A weighted graph $\phi G$ encodes a finite metric space $D_{\phi G}$. When is $D$ totally decomposable? When does it embed in $\ell_1$ space? When does its representing matrix have $\leq 1$ positive eigenvalue? We give useful lemmata and…
A finite group G is called admissible over a given field if there exists a central division algebra that contains a G-Galois field extension as a maximal subfield. We give a definition of embedding problems of division algebras that extends…

We derive a procedure for computing an upper bound on the number of equiangular lines in various Euclidean vector spaces by generalizing the classical pillar decomposition developed by (Lemmens and Seidel, 1973); namely, we use linear…
For an arbitrary field of any characteristic we give an explicit description, in terms of Pl\"ucker coordinates, of the projective linear space that cuts out the Lagrangian-Grassmannian variety $L(n,2n)$ of maximal isotropic subspaces in a…
A lattice L is spatial if every element of L is a join of completely join-irreducible elements of L (points), and strongly spatial if it is spatial and the minimal coverings of completely join-irreducible elements are well-behaved.…
Triangular decomposition is a classic, widely used and well-developed way to represent algebraic varieties with many applications. In particular, there exist sharp degree bounds for a single triangular set in terms of intrinsic data of the…
Given a finite set $W$ in $\bar{k}^n$ where $\bar{k}$ is the algebraic closure of a field $k$ one would like to determine if $W$ can be decomposed as $\prod_{i=1}^n V_i$ where $V_i \subset \bar{k}$ under a linear transformation, that is,…
