It is shown that, under some natural assumptions, the tensor product of differentially smooth algebras and the skew-polynomial rings over differentially smooth algebras are differentially smooth.
Partial quotients of moment-angle complexes are topological analogues of smooth, not necessarily compact toric varieties. In 1998, Buchstaber and Panov proposed a formula for the cohomology ring of such a partial quotient in terms of a…
G. Walker and R. Wood proved that in degree $2^n-1-n$, the space of indecomposable elements of $\Bbb F_2[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$, considered as a module over the mod 2 Steenrod algebra, is isomorphic to the Steinberg representation of $GL_n(\Bbb…
Ehrenborg, Govindaiah, Park, and Readdy recently introduced the van der Waerden complex, a pure simplicial complex whose facets correspond to arithmetic progressions. Using techniques from combinatorial commutative algebra, we classify when…
For a graph $G$, Bayer-Denker-Milutinovi\'c-Rowlands-Sundaram-Xue study in \cite{B-D-M-R-S-X} a new graph complex $\Delta_k^t(G)$, namely the simplicial complex with facets that are complements to independent sets of size $k$ in $G$. They…
We prove that the Stanley--Reisner ideal of the Alexander dual of the subword complexes in Coxeter groups has linear quotients with respect to the lexicographical order of the minimal monomial generators. As a consequence, we obtain a…
Metastable gels formed by weakly attractive colloidal particles display a distinctive two-stage time-dependent settling behavior under their own weight. Initially a space-spanning network is formed that for a characteristic time, which we…
The purpose of this paper is to exhibit fine structure for polyhedral products Z(K;(X,A) and polyhedral smash products $\widehat{Z}(K;(X,A)$. (Moment-angle complexes are special cases for which (X,A) = (D^2,S^1)). There are three main…
Let $K$ be a field and $R=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$. Let $\Delta$ be a simplicial complex on $n$ vertices and $I=I_{\Delta}$ be its Stanley-Reisner ideal. In this paper, we show that if $I$…
We use molecular dynamics simulations of a simple model to show that dispersions of slightly elongated colloidal particles with long-range dipolar interactions, like ferrofluids, can form a physical (reversible) gel at low volume fractions.…
We study rings of integral modular forms for congruence subgroups as modules over the ring of integral modular forms for the full modular group. In many cases these modules are free or decompose at least into well-understood pieces. We…
In this paper, we define and prove basic properties of complement polyhedral product spaces, dual complexes and polyhedral join complexes. Then we compute the universal algebra of polyhedral join complexes under certain split conditions and…
We derive expressions for the shear modulus of deeply-quenched, glassy solids, in terms of a Cauchy-Born free energy expansion around a rigid (quenched) reference state, following the approach due to Alexander [Alexander, Phys. Rep. 296,…
Multicomponent gel systems have garnered much interest due to their compelling mechanical properties in the past decade. Yet, some mechanisms associated with multicomponent gels, such as sequential gelation, have been explored primarily in…
In an elegant paper, D. Nelson suggested a method to produce tetravalent colloids based on a tetrahedral configuration created on the surface of a spherical particle. It emerges from a two-dimensional nematic liquid crystal placed on a…
Star colloids are rigid particles with long and slender arms connected to a central core. We show numerically that the colloid shapes control the rheology of their suspensions. In particular, colloids with curved arms and hooks can entangle…
Performing light scattering experiments we show that introducing short-ranged attraction to a colloidal suspension of nearly hard spheres by addition of free polymer produces new glass transition phenomena. We observe a dramatic…
We construct so called Hall monoidal categories (and Hall modules thereover) and exhibit them as a categorification of classical Hall and Hecke algebras (and certain modules thereover). The input of the (functorial!) construction are…
A panel structure on a topological space is just a locally finite family of closed subspaces. A space together with a panel structure is called a space with faces. In this paper, we introduce a notion of polyhedral product over a space with…
We prove a conjecture of Bahri, Bendersky, Cohen and Gitler: if K is a shifted simplicial complex on n vertices, X_1,..., X_n are spaces and CX_i is the cone on X_i, then the polyhedral product determined by K and the pairs (CX_i,X_i) is…
