An algebraic variety is said to have the $A_k$-property if any $k$ points are contained in some common affine open neighbourhood. A theorem of W{\l}odarczyk states that a normal variety has the $A_2$-property if and only if it admits a…
We show global uniqueness of the solution to a class of constrained variational problems, using scaling properties. This is used to establish the essential uniqueness of solutions of a large deviations problem in multiple dimensions. The…
In this article, we introduce and study the concept of $\textit{spherical-vectors}$, which can be perceived as a natural extension of the arguments of complex numbers in the context of quaternions. We initially establish foundational…
It is given the diffeomorphism classification on generic singularities of tangent varieties to curves with arbitrary codimension in a projective space. The generic classifications are performed in terms of certain geometric structures and…
This paper is devoted to a discussion of specific properties of invariants in the theory of forms.
For a singular variety X, an essential step to determine its smoothability and study its deformations is the understanding of the tangent sheaf and of the sheaf T^1_X:=ext^1(Omega_X,O_X). A variety is semi-smooth if its singularities are…
Symmetric varieties are normal equivariant open embeddings of symmetric homogeneous spaces and they are interesting examples of spherical varieties. The principal goal of this article is to study the rigidity under K\"{a}hler deformations…
We introduce and study the property of orthogonal independence, a restricted additivity axiom applying when alternatives are orthogonal. The axiom requires that the preference for one marginal change over another should be maintained after…
This paper studies the singularities of affine Schubert varieties in the affine Grassmannian (of type $\mathrm{A}^{(1)}_\ell$). For two classes of affine Schubert varieties, we determine the singular loci; and for one class, we also…
We introduce and study the class of spherically ordered groups. The notions of spherically ordered groups and their spectra of spherical orderability are introduced. Values of these spectra are found for a series of natural groups.
We classify spherical conjugacy classes in a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of good, odd characteristic.
Let G be a connected complex reductive group. A well known theorem of I. Losev's says that a smooth affine spherical G-variety X is uniquely determined by its weight monoid, which is the set of irreducible representations of G that occur in…
In this paper we study super-isolated abelian varieties, that is, abelian varieties over finite fields whose isogeny class contains a single isomorphism class. The goal of this paper is to (1) characterize whether a product of…
One of basic difficulties of machine learning is handling unknown rotations of objects, for example in image recognition. A related problem is evaluation of similarity of shapes, for example of two chemical molecules, for which direct…
The so-called Scattering Equations which govern the kinematics of the scattering of massless particles in arbitrary dimensions have recently been cast into a system of homogeneous polynomials. We study these as affine and projective…
We give a complete description of all order 1 invariants of spherical curves. We also identify the subspaces of all J-invariants and S-invariants, and present two equalities satisfied by any spherical curve.
Let $k$ be any field and $k^s$ its separable closure. Let $X$ be an affine variety over $k$ which is isomorphic to affine $n$-space over the field extension $k^s$. Then $X$ is isomorphic to affine $n$ space over $k$.
Using the characterization of the spin representation in terms of exterior forms, we give a complete classification of invariant spinors on the nine homogeneous realizations of the sphere $S^n$. In each of the cases we determine the…
In this article we study the cohomological and homological (due to Jannsen) Hodge conjecture for singular varieties. The motivation for studying singular varieties comes from the fact that any smooth projective variety X is birational to a…
We introduce the classes of (strongly) ($\Theta$-)discrete homogeneous spaces. We discuss the relationships of these classes to other classes of spaces possessing homogeneity-related properties, such as (strongly) ($n$-)homogeneous spaces.…
