In this paper we discuss some recent results about extremal contractions of complex algebraic varieties. These are proper surjective maps, $\phi: X\longrightarrow Z$, of normal varieties with connected fibers such that $X$ has mild…
We consider a new class of linear codes, called affine Grassmann codes. These can be viewed as a variant of generalized Reed-Muller codes and are closely related to Grassmann codes. We determine the length, dimension, and the minimum…
A new class of distances for graph vertices is proposed. This class contains parametric families of distances which reduce to the shortest-path, weighted shortest-path, and the resistance distances at the limiting values of the family…
We investigate multi-point algebraic geometric codes defined from curves related to the generalized Hermitian curve introduced by Alp Bassa, Peter Beelen, Arnaldo Garcia, and Henning Stichtenoth. Our main result is to find a basis of the…
A toric code is an error-correcting code determined by a toric variety or its associated integral convex polytope. We investigate $4$- and $5$-dimensional toric $3$-fold codes, which are codes arising from polytopes in $\mathbf{R}^3$ with…
We propose reducible algebraic curves as a mechanism to construct Partial MDS (PMDS) codes geometrically. We obtain new general existence results, new explicit constructions and improved estimates on the smallest field sizes over which such…
Toric geometry provides a bridge between the theory of polytopes and algebraic geometry: one can associate to each lattice polytope a polarized toric variety. In this paper we explore this correspondence to classify smooth lattice polytopes…
We extend the work of Cremona, Fisher and Stoll on minimising genus one curves of degrees 2,3,4,5, to some of the other representations associated to genus one curves, as studied by Bhargava and Ho. Specifically we describe algorithms for…
In this paper we look into the structure of finite-dimensional graded superalgebras of various types such as associative, Lie and Jordan over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
For any affine-variety code we show how to construct an ideal whose solutions correspond to codewords with any assigned weight. We classify completely the intersections of the Hermitian curve with lines and parabolas (in the…
We review the language of differential forms and their applications to Riemannian Geometry with an orientation to General Relativity. Working with the principal algebraic and differential operations on forms, we obtain the structure…
Subspace codes, and in particular cyclic subspace codes, have gained significant attention in recent years due to their applications in error correction for random network coding. In this paper, we introduce a new technique for constructing…
We prove the existence of infinitely many solutions to an elliptic problem by borrowing the techniques from algebraic topology. The solution(s) thus obtained will also be proved to be bounded.
This expository paper explores the interaction of group ordering with topological questions, especially in dimensions 2 and 3. Among the topics considered are surfaces, braid groups, 3-manifolds and their structures such as foliations and…
This paper first gives a brief overview over some interesting descriptions of conic sections, showing formulations in the three geometric algebras of Euclidean spaces, projective spaces, and the conformal model of Euclidean space. Second…
We construct a family of (n,k) convolutional codes with degree \delta in {k,n-k} that have a maximum distance profile. The field size required for our construction is of the order n^{2\delta}, which improves upon the known constructions of…
Every algebraic variety can be regarded as a symplectic manifold being equipped with a Kahler form. Therefore it is natural to study lagrangian geometry of any algebraic variety. We present two basic constructions which can be applied to a…
The paper consist of two parts. In the first part we introduce flags of lattices and associated injective systems of (non-normal) cones and projective systems of (non-normal) affine toric varieties. We study the associated field of…
The real solutions to a system of sparse polynomial equations may be realized as a fiber of a projection map from a toric variety. When the toric variety is orientable, the degree of this map is a lower bound for the number of real…
We give explicit formulas for the dimensions and the degrees of $A$-discriminant varieties introduced by Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky. Our formulas can be applied also to the case where the $A$-discriminant varieties are higher-codimensional…
