We study the double Grothendieck polynomials of Kirillov--Naruse for the symplectic and odd orthogonal Grassmannians. These functions are explicitly written as sums of Pfaffian and are identified with the stable limits of the fundamental…
Equidistant codes over vector spaces are considered. For $k$-dimensional subspaces over a large vector space the largest code is always a sunflower. We present several simple constructions for such codes which might produce the largest…
We compute the elementary divisors of the adjacency and Laplacian matrices of families of polar graphs. These graphs have as vertices the isotropic one-dimensional subspaces of finite vector spaces with respect to non-degenerate forms, with…
Modeling videos and image-sets as linear subspaces has proven beneficial for many visual recognition tasks. However, it also incurs challenges arising from the fact that linear subspaces do not obey Euclidean geometry, but lie on a special…
The Grassmann angle improves upon similar angles between subspaces that measure volume contraction in orthogonal projections. It works in real or complex spaces, with important differences, and is asymmetric, what makes it more efficient…
In this paper we consider partial linear spaces induced on the point set of a polar space, but with as lines the hyperbolic lines of this polar space. We give some geometric characterizations of these and related spaces. The results have…
Here we give brief account of hermitian symplectic spaces, showing that they are intimately connected to symmetric as well as self-adjoint extensions of a symmetric operator. Furthermore we find an explicit parameterisation of the Lagrange…
We determine the invariants characterizing the $Sp(n)$-orbits in the real Grassmannian $Gr^\R(2k,4n)$ of the $2k$-dimensional complex and $\Sigma$-complex subspaces of a $4n$-dimensional Hermitian quaternionic vector space. A…
Let V be a vector space with a nondegenerate symmetric form and OG be the orthogonal Grassmannian which parametrizes maximal isotropic subspaces in V. We give a presentation for the (small) quantum cohomology ring QH^*(OG) and show that its…
We launch the study of the tropicalization of the symplectic Grassmannian, that is, the space of all linear subspaces that are isotropic with respect to a fixed symplectic form. We formulate tropical analogues of several equivalent…
Convex neural codes are combinatorial structures describing the intersection pattern of a collection of convex sets. Inductively pierced codes are a particularly nice subclass of neural codes introduced in the information visualization…
We introduce a natural generalization of the scattering equations, which connect the space of Mandelstam invariants to that of points on ${\mathbb{CP}^1}$, to higher-dimensional projective spaces $\mathbb{CP}^{k-1}$. The standard, $k=2$…
It is well-known that the coset spaces G(k((z)))/G(k[[z]]), for a reductive group G over a field k, carry the geometric structure of an inductive limit of projective k-schemes. This k-ind-scheme is known as the affine Grassmannian for G.…
Let k be a field. Denote by Spc(k)_* the unstable, pointed motivic homotopy category and by Omega_Gm: Spc(k)_* \to Spc(k)_* the Gm-loops functor. For a k-group G, denote by Gr_G the affine Grassmannian of G. If G is isotropic reductive, we…
Let $b$ be a symmetric or alternating bilinear form on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$. When the characteristic of the underlying field is not $2$, we determine the greatest dimension for a linear subspace of nilpotent $b$-symmetric…
This paper resolves a long-standing open problem by providing a classification of Willmore $2$-spheres in $S^n$. We show that any such $2$-sphere is either totally isotropic--originating from the projection of a special twistor curve in the…
Restricted secant varieties of Grassmannians are constructed from sums of points corresponding to $k$-planes with the restriction that their intersection has a prescribed dimension. We study dimensions of restricted secant of Grassmannians…
This paper proposes a generalized framework with joint normalization which learns lower-dimensional subspaces with maximum discriminative power by making use of the Riemannian geometry. In particular, we model the similarity/dissimilarity…
We revisit Pollard's classical result on consistency for $k$-means clustering in Euclidean space, with a focus on extensions in two directions: first, to problems where the data may come from interesting geometric settings (e.g., Riemannian…
The totally nonnegative Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}(k,n)_{\geq0}$ is the subset of the real Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}(k,n)$ consisting of points with all nonnegative Pl\"ucker coordinates. The circular Bruhat order is a poset isomorphic to…
