This chapter combines an introduction and research survey about Schubert varieties. The theme is to combinatorially classify their singularities using a family of polynomial ideals generated by determinants.
Some applications of a result, which is proved recently, is considered. We first prove three determinantal identities concerning the binomial coefficient and Stirling numbers of the first and the second kind. We also easily obtain the…
Many (if not most) of convex polytopes, important for combinatorial and algebraic geometry, are closely related to secondary polytopes of point configurations, or base polytopes of submodular functions, or their numerous variations and…
In this paper we study the Newton's method for finding a singularity of a differentiable vector field defined on a Riemannian manifold. Under the assumption of invertibility of covariant derivative of the vector field at its singularity, we…
We consider here a particular quadratic equation linking two elements of a C-Algebra. By analysing powers of the unknowns, it appears a double sequence of polynomials related to classical Bernoulli polynomials. We get the generating…
The problem of expressing a specific polynomial as the determinant of a square matrix of affine-linear forms arises from algebraic geometry, optimisation, complexity theory, and scientific computing. Motivated by recent developments in this…
We revisit a classical theme of (general or translation invariant) valuations on convex polyhedra. Our setting generalizes the classical one, in a ``dual'' direction to previously considered generalizations: while previous research was…
Based on previous work by the author we deduce that the invariant introduced by Bierstone and Milman in order to give a proof for constructive resolution of singularities in characteristic zero can be determined purely by considering…
The paper contains a combinatorial theorem (the sequence of Newton polygons of a reccurent sequence of polynomials is quasi-linear) and two applications of it in classical and quantum topology, namely in the behavior of the $A$-polynomial…
The aim of this study is to provide a perspective to help understand the singular average operator over polynomial hypersurfaces. In particular, this perspective will provide brevity and the possibility of generalizing previous results…
In this lecture notes we try to familiarize the audience with the theory of Bernoulli polynomials; we study their properties, and we give, with proofs and references, some of the most relevant results related to them. Several applications…
We study exceptional quotient singularities. In particular, we prove an exceptionality criterion in terms of the $\alpha$-invariant of Tian, and utilize it to classify four-dimensional and five-dimensional exceptional quotient…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate order of contact on real hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb C}^n$ by using Newton polyhedra which are important notion in the study of singularity theory. To be more precise, an equivalence condition for…
The classical multidimensional resultant can be defined as the, suitably normalized, generator of a projective elimination ideal in the ring of universal coefficients. This is the approach via the so-called inertia forms or…
In this paper, we determine the bifurcation set of a real polynomial function of two variables for non-degenerate case in the sense of Newton polygons by using a toric compactification. We also count the number of singular phenomena at…
In this paper we study polynomial maps of vector spaces and their eigenvectors and eigenvalues. The new quantity called complanart is defined. Complanarts determine complanarity of solution vectors of systems of polynomial equations.…
The uniqueness question of the multivariate moment problem is studied by different methods: Hilbert space operators, complex function theory, polynomial approximation, disintegration, integral geometry. Most of the known results in the…
We introduce a variation of the well-known Newton-Hironaka polytope for algebroid hypersurfaces. This combinatorial object is a perturbed version of the original one, parametrized by a real number. For well-chosen values of the parameter,…
We explore systems of polynomial equations where we seek complex solutions with absolute value 1. Geometrically, this amounts to understanding intersections of algebraic varieties with tori -- Cartesian powers of the unit circle. We study…
The Thom polynomial of a singularity $\eta$ expresses the cohomology class of the $\eta$-singularity locus of a map in terms of the map's simple invariants. In this informal survey -- based on two lectures given at the Isaac Newton…
