A generalization of the Bethe ansatz equations is studied, where a scalar two-particle S-matrix has several zeroes and poles in the complex plane, as opposed to the ordinary single pole/zero case. For the repulsive case (no complex roots),…

We propose a refinement of the Betti numbers and of the homology with coefficients in a field of a compact ANR in the presence of a continuous real valued function. The refinement of Betti numbers consists of finite configurations of points…

We study the dependence of graded Betti numbers of monomial ideals on the characteristic of the base field. The examples we describe include bipartite ideals, Stanley--Reisner ideals of vertex-decomposable complexes and ideals with…

This manuscript recounts some of the author's contributions to algebraic and enumerative combinatorics. We have focused on two types of generalizations of bipartite maps, which are bipartite graphs embedded on surfaces. Maps are known to…

Let X be a smooth projective variety with torsion-free Picard group. We introduce complexes of vector spaces whose homology determines the structure of the minimal free resolution of the Cox ring of X over the polynomial ring and show how…

In the classical theory of toric manifolds polytopes appear in two guises -- as Newton polytopes of line bundles on the complex, and as moment polytopes on the symplectic side, the link between the two being established by the…

Let $P\subset \mathbb R^n$ be a belt polytope, that is a polytope whose normal fan coincides with the fan of some hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal A$. Also, let $G:\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R^d$ be a linear map of full rank whose kernel is in…

Let $R=\Bbbk[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $\Bbbk$ and let $I\subset R$ be a monomial ideal preserved by the natural action of the symmetric group $\mathfrak S_n$ on $R$. We give a combinatorial method to determine the…

In a paper by Lin an interesting family of semipermutations comes out to index the elements of a cohomology basis of a Hessenberg type variety. The corresponding Betti numbers are a generalization of Eulerian numbers. We show three…

A unital in PG(2,q^2) is a set U of q^3+1 points such that each line meets U in 1 or q+1 points. The well known example is the classical unital consisting of all absolute points of a non-degenerate unitary polarity of PG(2,q^2). Unitals…

Let $P$ be a simple polytope of dimension $n$ with $m$ facets. In this paper we pay our attention on those elementary symmetric polynomials in the Stanley--Reisner face ring of $P$ and study how the decomposability of the $n$-th elementary…

Let $\R$ be a real closed field, $ {\mathcal Q} \subset \R[Y_1,...,Y_\ell,X_1,...,X_k], $ with $ \deg_{Y}(Q) \leq 2, \deg_{X}(Q) \leq d, Q \in {\mathcal Q}, #({\mathcal Q})=m,$ and $ {\mathcal P} \subset \R[X_1,...,X_k] $ with $\deg_{X}(P)…

The main result of this paper is that the polytope of the bipartite TSP is significantly different from that of the general TSP. Comb inequalities are known as facet defining ones in the general case. In the bipartite case, however, many of…

We extend a result of Guan by showing that the second Betti number of a 4-dimensional primitively symplectic orbifold is at most 23 and there are at most 91 singular points. The maximal possibility 23 can only occur in the smooth case. In…

We determine the codimension of the Betti strata of the family G(H) parametrizing graded Artinian quotients A of the polynomial ring R in two variables, having Hilbert function H. The Betti stratum G(B,H) parametrizes all such quotients…

The type A_n full root polytope is the convex hull in R^{n+1} of the origin and the points e_i-e_j for 1<= i<j <= n+1. Given a tree T on the vertex set [n+1], the associated root polytope P(T) is the intersection of the full root polytope…

We study the topology of the real algebraic hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^n$ that can be constructed via combinatorial patchworking using triangulations that are dilations by two of other triangulations. By examining the real critical points…

We compute the integral cohomology ring of configuration spaces of two points on a given real projective space. Apart from an integral class, the resulting ring is a quotient of the known integral cohomology of the dihedral group of order 8…

The Boij-S\"oderberg characterization decomposes a Betti table into a unique positive integral linear combination of pure diagrams. Given a module with a pure resolution, we describe explicit formulae for computing the decomposition of the…

We completely characterize the faces of the root polytope $\tilde Q_G = \text{conv}\{\mathbf 0, \mathbf e_i - \mathbf e_j\: (i,j) \in E(G)\}$ combinatorially. Our results specialize to state of the art results in a straightforward way.
