A phylogenetic variety is an algebraic variety parameterized by a statistical model of the evolution of biological sequences along a tree. Understanding this variety is an important problem in the area of algebraic statistics with…
Let R: V x V -> V x V be a Hecke type solution of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation (a Hecke symmetry). Then, the Hilbert-Poincre' series of the associated R-exterior algebra of the space V is a ratio of two polynomials of degree m…
We derive the structure of the Higgs branch of 5d superconformal field theories or gauge theories from their realization as a generalized toric polygon (or dot diagram). This approach is motivated by a dual, tropical curve decomposition of…
We show how, given a sufficiently large point cloud sampled from an embedded 2-manifold in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we may obtain a global representation as a cell complex with vertices given by a representative subset of the point cloud. The vertex…
We first motivate the study of a certain quotient of the loop braid category, both for the mathematics underpinning recent approaches to topological quantum computation; and as a key example in non-semisimple higher representation theory.…
In this paper we compute Lawson homology groups and semi-topological K-theory for some threefolds and fourfolds. We consider smooth complex projective varieties whose zero cycles are supported on a proper subvariety. Rationally connected…
Phylogenetic invariants are equations that vanish on algebraic varieties associated with Markov processes that model molecular substitutions on phylogenetic trees. For practical applications, it is essential to understand these equations…
Two representations of a reductive group G are spectrally equivalent if the same irreducible representations appear in both of them. The semigroup of finite dimensional representations of G with tensor product and up to spectral equivalence…
For a subgroup $H$ of a reductive group $G$, let $\mathfrak m\subset \mathfrak g^*$ be the cotangent space of $eH\in G/H$. The linear action $(H:\mathfrak m)$ is the coisotropy representation. It is known that the complexity and rank of…
We develop a theory of representations of (discrete) polymatroids over tracts in terms of Pl\"ucker coordinates and suitable Pl\"ucker relations. As special cases, we recover polymatroids themselves as polymatroid representations over the…
The K-rings of non-singular complex pro jective varieties as well as quasi- toric manifolds were described in terms of generators and relations in an earlier work of the author with V. Uma. In this paper we obtain a similar description for…
Let $Q$ be a bipartite quiver with vertex set $Q_0$ such that the number of arrows between any source vertex and any sink vertex is constant. Let $\beta=(\beta(x))_{x \in Q_0}$ be a dimension vector of $Q$ with positive integer coordinates.…
We provide two algorithms for computing the volume of a convex polytope with half-space representation {x>=0; Ax <=b} for some (m,n) matrix A and some m-vector b. Both algorithms have a O(n^m) computational complexity which makes them…
The three-manifold topological invariants $\hat Z$ capture the half-index of the three-dimensional theory with ${\mathcal{N}}=2$ supersymmetry obtained by compactifying the M5 brane theory on the closed three-manifold. In 2019, surprising…
We consider the phylogenetic tree model in which every node of the tree is observed and binary and the transitions are given by the same matrix on each edge of the tree. We are able to compute the Grobner basis and Markov basis of the toric…
In this paper we study the representation theory for certain ``half lattice vertex algebras.'' In particular we construct a large class of irreducible modules for these vertex algebras. We also discuss how the representation theory of these…
Mirkovic and Vilonen discovered a canonical basis of algebraic cycles for the intersection homology of (the closures of the strata of) the loop Grassmannian. The moment map images of these varieties are a collection of polytopes, and they…
Given a planar graph $G$ and an integer $b$, OrthogonalPlanarity is the problem of deciding whether $G$ admits an orthogonal drawing with at most $b$ bends in total. We show that OrthogonalPlanarity can be solved in polynomial time if $G$…
Let $M_{1,2}(F)$ be the algebra of $3 \times 3$ matrices with orthosymplectic superinvolution $*$ over a field $F$ of characteristic zero. We study the $*$-identities of this algebra through the representation theory of the group…
Let $M_n$ be the configuration space of equilateral polygonal linkages with $n$ vertices in the Euclidean plane ${\mathbb R}^2$. We consider the case that $n$ is odd and set $n=2m+1$. In spite of the long history of research, the homology…
