If $X=(M_n(\mathbb{R}),\|\cdot\|)$ is a unitarily invariant normed space on , then we prove (via exact computations for a Jacobi orthogonal random matrix ensemble) that the spectral gap of the Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions on…

We prove the following three statements: 1) Let $(A, \bar A)$ be a partition of the spherical surface $S^n$ into two measurable sets. Let $st_A$ and $st_{\bar A}$ be their measure density functions of distance. Then $|st_A - st_{\bar A}|$…

The space $ \ft_n = \C^n/\C $ of $n$ points on the line modulo translation has a natural compactification $ \overline \ft_n $ as a matroid Schubert variety. In this space, pairwise distances between points can be infinite; it is natural to…

A conservative Newton system (d/dt)^2 q = -grad V(q) in R^n is called separable when the Hamilton--Jacobi equation for the natural Hamiltonian H = (1/2) p^2 + V(q) can be solved through separation of variables in some curvilinear…

We introduce the moduli space $R \bar{M}_{2k,l}$ of pointed real curves of genus zero and give its natural stratification. The strata of $R \bar{M}_{2k,l}$ correspond to real curves of genus zero with different degeneration types and are…

Consider the moduli space M^0 of arrangements of n hyperplanes in general position in projective (r-1)-space. When r=2 the space has a compactification given by the moduli space of stable curves of genus 0 with n marked points. In higher…

Let $(X,\mathcal{O}_X(1))$ be a polarized smooth projective variety over the complex numbers. Fix $\mathcal{D}\in \mathrm{coh}(X)$ and a nonnegative rational polynomial $\delta$. Using GIT we contruct a coarse moduli space for…

Hassett's moduli spaces of weighted stable curves form an important class of alternate modular compactifications of the moduli space of smooth curves with marked points. In this article we define a tropical analogue of these moduli spaces…

The polytope structure of the associahedron is decomposed into two categories, types and classes. The classification of types is related to integer partitions, whereas the classes present a new combinatorial problem. We solve this and…

The main result of this article is that the component of the Alexeev-Koll\'{a}r-Shepherd-Barron moduli space of stable surfaces parameterizing stable degenerations of symmetric squares of curves is isomorphic to the moduli space of stable…

If $n \geq 3$, then moduli space ${\mathcal M}_{0,[n+1]}$, of isomorphisms classes of $(n+1)$-marked spheres, is a complex orbifold of dimension $n-2$. Its branch locus ${\mathcal B}_{0,[n+1]}$ consists of the isomorphism classes of those…

For $n\ge5$, it is well known that the moduli space $\mathfrak{M_{0,\:n}}$ of unordered $n$ points on the Riemann sphere is a quotient space of the Zariski open set $K_n$ of $\mathbb C^{n-3}$ by an $S_n$ action. The stabilizers of this…

We study the separability of the Neumann-Rosochatius system on the n-dimensional sphere using the geometry of bi-Hamiltonian manifolds. Its well-known separation variables are recovered by means of a separability condition relating the…

We give a systematic construction of semiorthogonal decompositions of derived categories of coherent sheaves on quasi-smooth derived algebraic stacks over $\mathbb{C}$, where the summands are subcategories defined by weight conditions, and…

We construct the smooth, compact moduli space of similarity classes of labeled, oriented triangles. The space, denoted $\mathfrak D$, is a connected sum of three projective planes, and projects via blowdown to two shape spaces that have…

Isolated hypersurface singularities come equipped with a Milnor lattice, a ${\mathbb Z}$-lattice of finite rank, and a set of $distinguished$ ${\mathbb Z}$-bases of this lattice. Usually these bases are constructed from $one$ morsification…

We construct a desingularization of the ``main component'' $\bar{\mathfrak M}_{1,k}^0(\Bbb{P}^n,d)$ of the moduli space $\bar{\mathfrak M}_{1,k}(\Bbb{P}^n,d)$ of genus-one stable maps into the complex projective space $\Bbb{P}^n$. As a…
