Let ${\mathcal Q}_n^d$ be the vector space of homogeneous forms of degree $d\ge 3$ on ${\mathbb C}^n$, with $n\ge 2$. The object of our study is the map $\Phi$, introduced in earlier articles by J. Alper, M. Eastwood and the author, that…

Let $d\ge 3$, $n\ge 2$. The object of our study is the morphism $\Phi$, introduced in earlier articles by J. Alper, M. Eastwood and the author, that assigns to every homogeneous form of degree $d$ on ${\mathbb C}^n$ for which the…

We determine the squarefree part of the scalar factor that arises when the quartic invariant of the generic binary form $F$ of odd degree $2n+1$ is expressed as the discriminant of the unique quadratic covariant $(F,F)_{2n}$. This…

Let $A$ be an associative algebra with a superinvolution $*$ over a field of characteristic zero, and let $c_n^*(A)$, $n = 1, 2, \ldots$, denote its sequence of $*$-codimensions. It is well known that this sequence is either polynomially…

Given a nondegenerate ternary form $f=f(x_1,x_2,x_3)$ of degree 4 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, we use the geometry of K3 surfaces to construct a certain positive-dimensional family of irreducible…

We construct the moduli space, $M_d$, of degree $d$ rational maps on $\mathbb{P}^1$ in terms of invariants of binary forms. We apply this construction to give explicit invariants and equations for $M_3$. Using classical invariant theory, we…

We study orientifold projections of families of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ toric quiver gauge theories. We restrict to quivers that have the unusual property of being associated with multiple periodic planar diagrams which give rise,…

An explicit invariant-theoretic description of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_3^1$ of degree-three rational maps on $\mathbb{P}^1$ is developed. A cubic map $\phi$ is represented, up to conjugation, by the pair of binary forms $(f, g) \in…

We construct an associative differential algebra on a two-parameter quantum plane associated with a nilpotent endomorphism $d$ in the two cases $d^{2}=0$ and $d^3=0$ $(d^2\neq 0).$ The correspondent curvature is derived and the related non…

It was conjectured in a recent article by M. Eastwood and the second author that all absolute classical invariants of forms of degree $m\ge 3$ on ${\mathbb C}^n$ can be extracted, in a canonical way, from those of forms of degree $n(m-2)$…

This paper investigates two involutions on binary trees. One is the mirror symmetry of binary trees which combined with the classical bijection $\varphi$ between binary trees and plane trees answers an open problem posed by Bai and Chen.…

We study real nonsingular projective cubic fourfolds up to deformation equivalence combined with projective equivalence and prove that they are classified by the conjugacy classes of involutions induced by the complex conjugation in the…

There are many specific results, spread over the literature, regarding the dualisation of quadrics in projective spaces and quadratic forms on vector spaces. In the present work we aim at generalising and unifying some of these. We start…

In this work, we address some important topological and algebraic aspects of two-qudit states evolving under local unitary operations. The projective invariant subspaces and evolutions are connected with the common elements characterizing…

We show that a finite connected quiver Q with no oriented cycles is tame if and only if for each dimension vector $\mathbf{d}$ and each integral weight $\theta$ of Q, the moduli space $\mathcal{M}(Q,\mathbf{d})^{ss}_{\theta}$ of…

In this paper we prove a correspondence between a canonical degree six covariant of binary quartic forms $F$ and a cubic covariant of a pair of ternary quadratic forms $(f_A, f_B)$. In the process we obtain a canonical way to diagonalize a…

The main result of this paper is a recursive description of all decompositions \[ \Delta^+ = \Phi_1 \sqcup \Phi_2 \sqcup \dots \sqcup \Phi_k \] of the positive roots $\Delta^+$ of an arbitrary root system $\Delta$ into a disjoint union of…

We provide an explicit planar Abelian dual for three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ $U(N)_k$ SQCD with $F$ fundamental chiral multiplets. This construction covers the entire $(N, F, k)$ parameter space (provided supersymmetry is unbroken),…

A polynomial transformation of the real plane $\Bbb R^2$ is a mapping $\Bbb R^2\to\Bbb R^2$ given by two polynomials of two variables. Such a transformation is called cubic if the degrees of its polynomials are not greater than three. It…

We associate an square to any two dimensional evolution algebra. This geometric object is uniquely determined, does not depend on the basis and describes the structure and the behaviour of the algebra. We determine the identities of degrees…
