In "Faces of a Hyperplane Arrangement Enumerated by Ideal Dimension, with Applications to Plane, Plaids, and Shi," Zaslavsky showed how to compute the number $r_\ell(\mathcal{A})$ of regions of a real hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$…
Consider the collection of hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ whose defining equations are given by $\{x_i + x_j = 0\mid 1\leq i<j\leq n\}$. This arrangement is called the threshold arrangement since its regions are in bijection with labeled…
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…
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 extend the Billera-Ehrenborg-Readdy map between the intersection lattice and face lattice of a central hyperplane arrangement to affine and toric hyperplane arrangements. For arrangements on the torus, we also generalize Zaslavsky's…
We study Pythagorean hyperplane arrangements, originally defined by Zaslavsky. In this first part of a series on such arrangements, we introduce a new notion of genericity for such arrangements. Using this notion we construct an auxiliary…
This paper provides an overview of selected results and open problems in the theory of hyperplane arrangements, with an emphasis on computations and examples. We give an introduction to many of the essential tools used in the area, such as…
A subspace arrangement is a finite collection of affine subspaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$. One of the main problems associated to arrangements asks up to what extent the topological invariants of the union of these spaces, and of their complement…
We study enumerative questions on the moduli space $\mathcal{M}(L)$ of hyperplane arrangements with a given intersection lattice $L$. Mn\"ev's universality theorem suggests that these moduli spaces can be arbitrarily complicated; indeed it…
We introduce toric arrangements, essentially finite families of codimension 1 subtori of a torus or of their cosets, as a periodic generalization of hyperplane arrangements, compute cohomology of the complement of such an arrangement and…
In this work, we obtained separation results via codimension-1 maps to generalized manifolds. More specifically, we proved results that allow us to estimate the number of connected components of the complement of the image of such maps.
We develop a model for the cohomology of the complement of a hypersurface arrangement inside a smooth projective complex variety. This generalizes the case of normal crossing divisors, discovered by P. Deligne in the context of the mixed…
The Zariski theorem says that for every hypersurface in a complex projective (resp. affine) space of dimension at least 3 and for every generic plane in the projective (resp. affine) space the natural embedding generates an isomorphism of…
This paper is the first in a series. The main goal of the series is to present a geometric construction of certain remarkable tensor categories arising from quantum groups coresponding to the value of deformation parameter $q$ equal to a…
An arrangement of hyperplanes is a finite collection of hyperplanes in a real Euclidean space. To such a collection one associates the characteristic polynomial that encodes the combinatorics of intersections of the hyperplanes. Finding the…
Drawing parallels with hyperplane arrangements, we develop the theory of arrangements of submanifolds. Given a smooth, finite dimensional, real manifold $X$ we consider a finite collection $\mathcal{A}$ of locally flat, codimension-1…
In this paper we consider the hyperplane arrangement in $\mathbb{R}^n$ whose hyperplanes are $\{x_i + x_j = 1\mid 1\leq i < j\leq n\}\cup \{x_i=0,1\mid 1\leq i\leq n\}$. We call it the \emph{boxed threshold arrangement} since we show that…
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…
We use a construction which we call generalized cylinders to give a new proof of the fundamental theorem of hypersurface theory. It has the advantage of being very simple and the result directly extends to semi-Riemannian manifolds and to…
The collection of reflecting hyperplanes of a finite Coxeter group is called a reflection arrangement and it appears in many subareas of combinatorics and representation theory. We focus on the problem of counting regions of reflection…
