In this paper, we consider a family of closed planar algebraic curves $\mathcal{C}$ which are given in parametrization form via a trigonometric polynomial $p$. When $\mathcal{C}$ is the boundary of a compact convex set, the polynomial $p$…

We propose a conjecture regarding the integrally closedness of lattice polytopes with large lattice lengths. We demonstrate that a lattice simplex in dimension 3 (resp. 4) with lattice length of at least 2 (resp. 3 and no edge has lattice…

This paper investigates the number of supports of the Schubert polynomial $\mathfrak{S}_w(x)$ indexed by a permutation $w$. This number also equals the number of lattice points in the Newton polytope of $\mathfrak{S}_w(x)$. We establish a…

We present a new type of basis set which is local, compact, and orthogonal. The basis functions, called orthlets, are centered at the sites of a lattice and are specifically adapted to represent the system being studied. The adaptability…

We introduce W-spin structures on a Riemann surface and give a precise definition to the corresponding W-spin equations for any quasi-homogeneous polynomial W. Then, we construct examples of nonzero solutions of spin equations in the…

Let $V$ be a vector space over a finite field $k$. We give a condition on a subset $A \subset V$ that allows for a local criterion for checking when a function $f:A \to k$ is a restriction of a polynomial function of degree $<m$ on $V$. In…

Using tropical convexity Dochtermann, Fink, and Sanyal proved that regular fine mixed subdivisions of Minkowski sums of simplices support minimal cellular resolutions. They asked if the regularity condition can be removed. We give an…

We introduce tame sc-Fredholm sections and slices of sc-Fredholm sections. A slice is a notion of subpolyfold that is compatible with the sc-Fredholm section and has finite locally constant codimension. We prove that the subspace of a tame…

The spline space $C_k^r(\Delta)$ attached to a subdivided domain $\Delta$ of $\R^{d} $ is the vector space of functions of class $C^{r}$ which are polynomials of degree $\le k$ on each piece of this subdivision. Classical splines on planar…

Nonlinear approximation from regular piecewise polynomials (splines) of degree $<k$ supported on rings in $\R^2$ is studied. By definition a ring is a set in $\R^2$ obtained by subtracting a compact convex set with polygonal boundary from…

We develop a discrete extension operator for trimmed spline spaces consisting of piecewise polynomial functions of degree $p$ with $k$ continuous derivatives. The construction is based on polynomial extension from neighboring elements…
