We study the free path problem, i.e., if we are given two free arrangements of hyperplanes, then we can connect them by free arrangements or not. We prove that if an arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{A} \setminus \{H,L\}$ are free,…
Holm introduced $m$-free $\ell$-arrangements which is a generalization of free arrangements, while he asked whether all $\ell$-arrangements are $m$-free for $m$ large enough. Recently Abe and the author verified that this question is in the…
An m-free hyperplane arrangement is a generalization of a free arrangement. Holm asked the following two questions: (1)Does m-free imply (m+1)-free for any arrangement? (2)Are all arrangements m-free for m large enough? In this paper, we…
The freeness of hyperplane arrangements in a three dimensional vector space over finite field is discussed. We prove that if the number of hyperplanes is greater than some bound, then the freeness is determined by the characteristic…
In this article we show that any free hyperplane arrangement with exponents 1's and 2's is a supersolvable arrangement. We conjecture that any free arrangement with exponents 1's, 2's and exactly one 3, is also supersolvable, and we show…
Generalizing a result of Yoshinaga in dimension 3, we show that a central hyperplane arrangement in 4-space is free exactly if its restriction with multiplicities to a fixed hyperplane of the arrangement is free and its reduced…
We consider the triple $(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{A}',\mathcal{A}^H)$ of hyperplane arrangements and the division of their characteristic polynomials. We show that the freeness of $\mathcal{A}^H$ and the division of $\chi(\mathcal{A};t)$ by…
We introduce a new class of arrangements of hyperplanes, called (strictly) plus-one generated arrangements, from algebraic point of view. Plus-one generatedness is close to freeness, i.e., plus-one generated arrangements have their…
Every subarrangement of Weyl arrangements of type $ B_{\ell} $ is represented by a signed graph. Edelman and Reiner characterized freeness of subarrangements between type $ A_{\ell-1} $ and type $ B_{\ell} $ in terms of graphs. Recently,…
Let A be a generic hyperplane arrangement composed of r hyperplanes in an n-dimensional vector space, and S the polynomial ring in n variables. We consider the S-submodule D(m)(A) of the nth Weyl algebra of homogeneous differential…
A free multiarrangement of rank $k$ is defined to be extendable if it is obtained from a simple rank $(k+1)$ free arrangement by the natural restriction to a hyperplane (in the sense of Ziegler). Not all free multiarrangements are…
Let $V$ be a complex finite dimensional super vector space with an action of a connected semisimple group $G$. We classify those pairs $(G,V)$ for which all homogeneous components of the super symmetric algebra of $V$ decompose…
We will consider some characterizations of freeness of a hyperplane arrangement, in terms of the following properties: locally freeness, factorization of characteristic polynomial and freeness of restricted multiarrangement. In the case of…
In this paper, we study the class of free multiarrangements of hyperplanes. Specifically, we investigate the relations between freeness over a field of finite characteristic and freeness over the rationals.
Only few categories of free arrangements are known in which Terao's conjecture holds. One of such categories consists of $3$-arrangements with unbalanced Ziegler restrictions. In this paper, we generalize this result to arbitrary…
In this paper, we study the class of free hyperplane arrangements. Specifically, we investigate the relations between freeness over a field of finite characteristic and freeness over $\mathbb{Q}$.
We show that the deletion theorem of a free arrangement is combinatorial, i.e., whether we can delete a hyperplane from a free arrangement keeping freeness depends only on the intersection lattice. In fact, we give an explicit sufficient…
The addition-deletion theorems for hyperplane arrangements, which were originally shown in [H. Terao, Arrangements of hyperplanes and their freeness I, II. J. Fac. Sci. Univ. Tokyo Sect. IA Math. 27 (1980), 293--320], provide useful ways to…
Hyperplane Arrangements of rank $3$ admitting an unbalanced Ziegler restriction are known to fulfill Terao's conjecture. This long-standing conjecture asks whether the freeness of an arrangement is determined by its combinatorics. In this…
We show that the notion of MAT-freeness for hyperplane arrangements depends on the underlying field. In particular, MAT-freeness is not combinatorial.
