The M-polynomial provides a unifying framework for a wide class of degree-based topological indices. Despite its structural importance, general methods for computing the M-polynomial under graph constructions remain limited. In this paper,…
Consider a real algebraic variety, $\R X$, of dimension $d$. If its complexification, $\C X$, is a rational homology manifold (at least in a neighborhood of $\R X$), then the intersection form in $\C X$ defines a bilinear form in…
In the case of a compact orientable pseudomanifold, a well-known theorem of M. Goresky and R. MacPherson says that the cap product with a fundamental class factorizes through the intersection homology groups. In this work, we show that this…
The possibility of formulating quantum mechanics over quaternionic Hilbert spaces can be traced back to von Neumann's foundational works in the thirties. The absence of a suitable quaternionic version of spectrum prevented the full…
We provide a new foundation for combinatorial commutative algebra and Stanley-Reisner theory using the partition complex introduced in [Adi18]. One of the main advantages is that it is entirely self-contained, using only a minimal knowledge…
Bruinier and Yang conjectured a formula for an intersection number on the arithmetic Hilbert modular surface, CM(K).T_m, where CM(K) is the zero-cycle of points corresponding to abelian surfaces with CM by a primitive quartic CM field K,…
The setting is a square-tiled surface X. We study the quantity KVol, defined as the supremum over all pairs of closed curves, of their algebraic intersection divided by the product of their length, times the volume of X (so as to make it…
A new integral representation of smooth translation invariant and rotation equivariant even Minkowski valuations is established. Explicit formulas relating previously obtained descriptions of such valuations with the new more accessible one…
We construct a new operation among representations of the symmetric group that interpolates between the classical internal and external products, which are defined in terms of tensor product and induction of representations. Following…
We prove a generalization of the polarization identity of linear algebra expressing the inner product of a complex inner product space in terms of the norm, where the field of scalars is extended to an associative algebra equipped with an…
In these lecture notes we review the various relations between intersection theory on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces, integrable hierarchies of KdV type, matrix models, and topological quantum field theories. We explain in particular…
Let $\mathbf{G}$ be either a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic or a quantum group at a root of unity. We define new classes of indecomposable $\mathbf{G}$-modules, which we call…
We consider artinian algebras $A=\mathbb{C}[x_0,\ldots,x_m]/I$, with $I$ generated by a regular sequence of homogeneous forms of the same degree $d\geq 2$. We show that the multiplication by a general linear form from $A_{d-1}$ to $A_d$ is…
We associate to any given finite set of valuations on the polynomial ring in two variables over an algebraically closed field a numerical invariant whose positivity characterizes the case when the intersection of their valuation rings has…
We introduce a definition of braided tensor product $\operatorname{M}\overline{\boxtimes}\operatorname{N}$ of von Neumann algebras equipped with an action of a quasi-triangular quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ (this includes the case when…
We prove new kinematic formulas for tensor valuations and simplify previously known Crofton formulas by using the recently developed algebraic theory of translation invariant valuations. The heart of the paper is the computation of the…
The purpose of this paper is to provide a new account of multiplicity for finite morphisms between smooth projective varieties. Traditionally, this has been defined using commutative algebra in terms of the length of integral ring…
In this paper, the $mn$-dimensional space of tensor-product polynomials of two variables, of degree at most $(m-1)+(n-1)$, is considered. A theory of two-variate polynomials is developed by establishing the algebra and basic algebraic…
We give a new residual intersection decomposition for the refined intersection products of Fulton-MacPherson. Our formula refines the celebrated residual intersection formula of Fulton, Kleiman, Laksov, and MacPherson. The new decomposition…
The concept of a fluid algebra was introduced by Sullivan over a decade ago as an algebraic construct which contains everything necessary in order to write down a form of the Euler equation, as an ODE whose solutions have invariant…
