A multiplication on persistence diagrams is introduced by means of Schubert calculus. The key observation behind this multiplication comes from the fact that the representation space of persistence modules has the structure of the Schubert…
In this paper we focus on various aspects of singular complex plane curves, mostly in the context of their homological properties and the associated combinatorial structures. We formulate some challenging open problems that can point to new…
We study projective structures on a surface having poles of prescribed orders. We obtain a monodromy map from a complex manifold parameterising such structures to the stack of framed $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ local systems on the…
In this paper we give a detailed proof that the Milnor fiber $X_t$ of an analytic complex isolated singularity function defined on a reduced $n$-equidimensional analytic complex space $X$ is a regular neighborhood of a polyhedron $P_t…
It is well-known that reconstruction algorithms in quantitative susceptibility mapping often contain streaking artifacts. In [1], the cause of the artifacts is identified as propagation of singularities. In this work, we analyze such…
We study a class of maps having the Collatz function (famously related to the Collatz Conjecture) as an example, under the topological and ergodic perspectives, including an approach with thermodynamic formalism. By introducing a key…
In this paper we develop in detail the geometric constructions that lead to many uniqueness results for the determination of polyhedral sets, typically scatterers, by a finite minimal number of measurements. We highlight how unique…
For each $n$, let $M_n$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with independent $\pm 1$ entries. We show that ${\mathbb P}\{\mbox{$M_n$ is singular}\}=(1/2+o_n(1))^n$, which settles an old problem. Some generalizations are considered.
A discrete analog of the holomorphic map $z^{\gamma}$ is studied. It is given by Schramm's circle pattern with the combinatorics of the square grid. It is shown that the corresponding circle patterns are embedded and described by special…
We demonstrate that the complete and non-redundant set of Landau singularities of Feynman integrals may be explicitly obtained from the Whitney stratification of an algebraic map. As a proof of concept, we leverage recent theoretical and…
Examples of small contingency tables on binary random variables with large integer programming gaps on the lower bounds of cell entries were constructed by Sullivant. We argue here that the margins for which these constructed large gaps…
We examine the validity of the results obtained with the singularity confinement integrability criterion in the case of discrete Painlev\'e equations. The method used is based on the requirement of non-exponential growth of the homogeneous…
This paper introduces iterated monodromy groups for transcendental functions and discusses them in the simplest setting, for post-singularly finite exponential functions. These groups are self-similar groups in a natural way, based on an…
Drinfeld's relative compactification plays a basic role in the theory of automorphic sheaves, and its singularities encode representation-theoretic information in the form of intersection cohomology. We introduce a resolution of…
By the Riemann-mapping theorem, one can bijectively map the interior of an $n$-gon $P$ to that of another $n$-gon $Q$ conformally. However, (the boundary extension of) this mapping need not necessarily map the vertices of $P$ to those $Q$.…
Starting from a finite simple graph $G$, for each eigenvalue $\theta$ of its adjacency matrix one can construct a convex polytope $P_G(\theta)$, the so called $\theta$-eigenpolytop of $G$. For some polytopes this technique can be used to…
In this text I present some problems which led to the introduction of special kinds of graphs as tools for studying singular points of algebraic surfaces. I explain how such graphs were first described using words, and how several…
We investigate a family of one dimensional maps for which the bifurcation diagram looks differently than the usual ones. We describe and exemplify various unique and interesting phenomena arising for this family of maps.
We consider wave maps from $\mathbb R^{2+1}$ to a $C^\infty$-smooth Riemannian manifold, $\mathcal N$. Such maps can exhibit energy concentration, and at points of concentration, it is known that the map (suitably rescaled and translated)…
A map is a connected topological graph cellularly embedded in a surface and a complete map is a cellularly embedded complete graph in a surface. In this paper, all automorphisms of complete maps of order n are determined by permutations on…
