The complement of an arrangement A of a finite number of affine hyperplanes in complex n-space has the structure of a poset of spaces indexed by the intersection poset, L(A). The space corresponding to G in L(A) is homotopy equivalent to…
The aim of this work is to lay the foundations of differential geometry and Lie theory over the general class of topological base fields and -rings for which a differential calculus has been developed in recent work (collaboration with H.…
We study a class of complex polynomial equations on a finite graph with a view to understanding how holistic phenomena emerge from combinatorial structure. Particular solutions arise from orthogonal projections of regular polytopes,…
We present a novel framework for studying combinatorial identities through the geometric lens of subset distributions in q-valued cubes. By analyzing how elements of arbitrary subsets are distributed among the faces of the cube E_q^n, we…
We study random subcube intersection graphs, that is, graphs obtained by selecting a random collection of subcubes of a fixed hypercube $Q_d$ to serve as the vertices of the graph, and setting an edge between a pair of subcubes if their…
In $d$-dimensional space (over any field), given a set of lines, a joint is a point passed through by $d$ lines not all lying in some hyperplane. The joints problem asks to determine the maximum number of joints formed by $L$ lines, and it…
A topological hyperplane is a subspace of R^n (or a homeomorph of it) that is topologically equivalent to an ordinary straight hyperplane. An arrangement of topological hyperplanes in R^n is a finite set H such that k topological…
We investigate the metric structure of the intersection lattice L(B(n,k)) of the discriminantal arrange ment using circuit supports. We show that the cover graph associated with L(B(n,k)) is isometrically embedded into a hypercube, making…
If $ABC$ is a given triangle in the plane, $P$ is any point not on the extended sides of $ABC$ or its anticomplementary triangle, $Q$ is the complement of the isotomic conjugate of $P$ with respect to $ABC$, $DEF$ is the cevian triangle of…
A projective rectangle is like a projective plane that has different lengths in two directions. We develop the basic theory of projective rectangles including incidence properties, projective subplanes, configuration counts, a partial…
The general position number ${\rm gp}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the cardinality of a largest set of vertices $S$ such that no element of $S$ lies on a geodesic between two other elements of $S$. The complementary prism $G\overline{G}$ of $G$ is…
We study the complement problem in projective spaces $\mathbb{P}^n$ over any algebraically closed field: If $H, H' \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n$ are irreducible hypersurfaces of degree $d$ such that the complements $\mathbb{P}^n \setminus H$,…
We classify one-element extensions of a hyperplane arrangement by the induced adjoint arrangement. Based on the classification, several kinds of combinatorial invariants including Whitney polynomials, characteristic polynomials, Whitney…
Several papers have been written studying unexpected hypersurfaces. We say a finite set of points Z admits unexpected hypersurfaces if a general union of fat linear subspaces imposes less that the expected number of conditions on the ideal…
Given a set of nonempty subsets of some universal set, their intersection graph is defined as the graph with one vertex for each set and two vertices are adjacent precisely when their representing sets have non-empty intersection. Sometimes…
The Euler characteristic of a very affine variety encodes the number of critical points of the likelihood equation on this variety. In this paper, we study the Euler characteristic of the complement of a hypersurface arrangement with…
We study the generic behavior of Hamiltonian trajectories on a regular level set in the cotangent bundle, after projection to the base. We prove that for a generic submersive level set, projected trajectories have discrete…
In this paper we examine different problems regarding complete intersection varieties of high degree in a complex projective space. First we show how one can deduce hyperbolicity for generic complete intersection of high multidegree and…
We introduce geometric consideration into the theory of formal languages. We aim to shed light on our understanding of global patterns that occur on infinite strings. We utilise methods of geometric group theory. Our emphasis is on large…
We study biplane graphs drawn on a finite planar point set $S$ in general position. This is the family of geometric graphs whose vertex set is $S$ and can be decomposed into two plane graphs. We show that two maximal biplane graphs---in the…
