In this article we prove that the ideal-Shi arrangements are free central arrangements of hyperplanes satisfying the dual-partition formula. Then it immediately follows that there exists a saturated free filtration of the cone of any affine…
The Shi arrangement is an affine arrangement of hyperplanes consisting of the hyperplanes of the Weyl arrangement and their parallel translations. It was introduced by J.-Y. Shi in the study of the Kazhdan-Lusztig representation of the…
We show that the hyperplane arrangement of a coconvex set in a finite root system is free if and only if it is free in corank 4. As a consequence, we show that the inversion arrangement of a Weyl group element w is free if and only if w…
We consider deformations of the Weyl arrangement of type $A_2$, which include the extended Shi and Catalan arrangements. These last ones are well-known to be free. We study their sheaves of logarithmic vector fields in all other cases, and…
For more than hundred years, various concepts were developed to understand the fields of geometric objects and invariant differential operators between them for conformal Riemannian and projective geometries. More recently, several general…
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…
Any deformation of a Weyl or Clifford algebra can be realized through some change of generators in the undeformed algebra. Here we briefly describe and motivate our systematic procedure for constructing all such changes of generators for…
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 show that an element $w$ of a finite Weyl group $W$ is rationally smooth if and only if the hyperplane arrangement $I$ associated to the inversion set of $w$ is inductively free, and the product $(d_1+1) \cdots (d_l+1)$ of the…
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…
Let H be a graded Hecke algebra with complex deformation parameters and Weyl group W. We show that the Hochschild, cyclic and periodic cyclic homologies of H are all independent of the parameters, and compute them explicitly. We use this to…
The extended Shi and Catalan arrangements are well investigated arrangements. In this paper, we prove that the cone of the extended Catalan arrangement of type A is always hereditarily free, while we determine the dimension in which the…
We define a three-parameter deformation of the Weyl-Heisenberg algebra that generalizes the q-oscillator algebra. By a purely algebraical procedure, we set up on this quantum space two differential calculi that are shown to be invariant on…
Hyperplane arrangements dissect $\mathbb{R}^n$ into connected components called chambers, and a well-known theorem of Zaslavsky counts chambers as a sum of nonnegative integers called Whitney numbers of the first kind. His theorem…
Two notions of riffle shuffling on finite Coxeter groups are given: one using Solomon's descent algebra and another using random walk on chambers of hyperplane arrangements. These coincide for types $A$,$B$,$C$, $H_3$, and rank two groups.…
We prove a characterization of freeness, conjectured by Athanasiadis, for the family of hyperplane arrangements which lie between the Coxeter and the Catalan arrangement of type $A_\ell$. One direction was already proved in [2]. Here we…
Whenever a given Poisson manifold is equipped with discrete symmetries the corresponding algebra of invariant functions or the algebra of functions twisted by the symmetry group can have new deformations, which are not captured by…
A unified description of the relationship between the Hamiltonian structure of a large class of integrable hierarchies of equations and W-algebras is discussed. The main result is an explicit formula showing that the former can be…
A hyperplane arrangement in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is a finite collection of affine hyperplanes. The regions are the connected components of the complement of these hyperplanes. By a theorem of Zaslavsky, the number of regions of a hyperplane…
For the algebraic group $SL_{l+1}(\mathbb{C})$ we describe a system of positive roots associated to conjugacy classes in its Weyl group. Using this we explicitly describe the algebra of regular functions on certain transverse slices to…
