We review some relations occurring between the combinatorial intersection theory on the moduli spaces of stable curves and the asymptotic behavior of the 't Hooft-Kontsevich matrix integrals. In particular, we give an alternative proof of…

We establish Central Limit Theorems for the volumes of intersections of $B_{p}^n$ (the unit ball of $\ell_p^n$) with uniform random subspaces of codimension $d$ for fixed $d$ and $n\to \infty$. As a corollary we obtain higher order…

We introduce a new multiplication for the polytope algebra, defined via the intersection of polytopes. After establishing the foundational properties of this intersection product, we investigate finite-dimensional subalgebras that arise…

At the heart of convex geometry lies the observation that the volume of convex bodies behaves as a polynomial. Many geometric inequalities may be expressed in terms of the coefficients of this polynomial, called mixed volumes. Among the…

Generalizing the notion of Newton polytope, we define the Newton-Okounkov body, respectively, for semigroups of integral points, graded algebras, and linear series on varieties. We prove that any semigroup in the lattice Z^n is…

Zonoids are Hausdorff limits of zonotopes, while zonotopes are convex polytopes defined as the Minkowski sums of finitely many segments. We present a combinatorial framework that links the study of mixed volumes of zonoids (a topic that has…

It is well known that $n$-dimensional projective group gives rise to a non-homogenous representation of the Lie algebra $sl(n+1)$ on the polynomial functions of the projective space. Using Shen's mixed product for Witt algebras (also known…

The Brunn-Minkowski theory relies heavily on the notion of mixed volumes. Despite its particular importance, even explicit representations for the mixed volumes of two convex bodies in Euclidean space are available only in special cases.…

Let $\tau$ denote the divisor function, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies some mild hypotheses. We establish the asymptotic formula or non-trivial upper bound for the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \leq…

We present several analogies between convex geometry and the theory of holomorphic line bundles on smooth projective varieties or K\"ahler manifolds. We study the relation between positive products and mixed volumes. We define and study a…

The famous Minkowski inequality provides a sharp lower bound for the mixed volume $V(K,M[n-1])$ of two convex bodies $K,M\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ in terms of powers of the volumes of the individual bodies $K$ and $M$. The special case where $K$…

This is the second installment of a series of papers aimed at developing a theory of Hrushovski-Kazhdan style motivic integration for certain types of nonarchimedean $o$-minimal fields, namely power-bounded $T$-convex valued fields, and…

In this paper, we develop the general intersection theory of nef b-divisors, extending the movable intersection theory. We define a notion of restricted volume of b-divisors and prove a quantitative version of the monotonicity of the…

Let $\mathcal I_k$ be the class of convex $k$-intersection bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (in the sense of Koldobsky) and $\mathcal I_k^m$ be the class of convex origin-symmetric bodies all of whose $m$-dimensional central sections are…

Let $\mathbb{P}\Omega^d\mathcal{M}_{0,n}(\kappa)$, where $\kappa=(k_1,\dots,k_n)$, be a stratum of (projectivized) $d$-differentials in genus $0$. We prove a recursive formula which relates the volume of…

We survey three settings in which dimensions of intersection cohomology groups of algebraic varieties provide deep combinatorial and representation-theoretic information, and computations of the groups themselves have been made using…

In a recent work, R. Pandharipande, J. P. Solomon and the second author have initiated a study of the intersection theory on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces with boundary. They conjectured that the generating series of the intersection…

In the paper "Isoperimetry of waists and local versus global asymptotic convex geometries", it was proved that the existence of nicely bounded sections of two symmetric convex bodies K and L implies that the intersection of randomly rotated…

Intersection bodies represent a remarkable class of geometric objects associated with sections of star bodies and invoking Radon transforms, generalized cosine transforms, and the relevant Fourier analysis. The main focus of this article is…

The volume of a Cartier divisor is an asymptotic invariant, which measures the rate of growth of sections of powers of the divisor. It extends to a continuous, homogeneous, and log-concave function on the whole N\'eron--Severi space, thus…
