Let $ V $ a vector space of dimension $n$. A family $ \{H_1, \ldots, H_p \} $ of vectorial hyperplans $V$ defines an arrangement $ {\cal A} $ of $ V $. For $ i \in \{ 1, \ldots, p \} $, let $ l_i $ be a linear form on $V$ with $H_i$ as…
We study the notion of a nice partition or factorization of a hyperplane arrangement due to Terao from the early 1990s. The principal aim of this note is an analogue of Terao's celebrated addition-deletion theorem for free arrangements for…
We consider the vanishing ideal of an arrangement of linear subspaces in a vector space and investigate when this ideal can be generated by products of linear forms. We introduce a combinatorial construction (blocker duality) which yields…
Let $\mathcal A\subset\mathbb P^{k-1}$ be a rank $k$ arrangement of $n$ hyperplanes, with the property that any $k$ of the defining linear forms are linearly independent (i.e., $\mathcal A$ is called $k-$generic). We show that for any…
Suppose that W is a finite, unitary, reflection group acting on the complex vector space V. Let A = A(W) be the associated hyperplane arrangement of W. Terao has shown that each such reflection arrangement A is free. Let L(A) be the…
The Jacobian ideal of a hyperplane arrangement is an ideal in the polynomial ring whose generators are the partial derivatives of the arrangements defining polynomial. In this article, we prove that an arrangement can be reconstructed from…
In the theory of hyperplane arrangements, the most important and difficult problem is the combinatorial dependency of several properties. In this atricle, we prove that Terao's celebrated addition-deletion theorem for free arrangements is…
We investigate arrangements of hyperplanes whose normal vectors are given by connected subgraphs of a fixed graph. These include the resonance arrangement and certain ideal subarrangements of Weyl arrangements. We characterize those which…
A bi-arrangement of hyperplanes in a complex affine space is the data of two sets of hyperplanes along with a coloring information on the strata. To such a bi-arrangement, one naturally associates a relative cohomology group, that we call…
Let A = (A,V) be a complex hyperplane arrangement and let L(A) denote its intersection lattice. The arrangement A is called supersolvable, provided its lattice L(A) is supersolvable, a notion due to Stanley. Jambu and Terao showed that…
A hyperplane arrangement $\cA$ is said to be free if the corresponding Jacobian ideal $J_\cA$ is Cohen-Macaulay. If $\cA$ is free then $J_\cA$ is unmixed (i.e. equidimensional). Freeness is an important property, yet its presence is not…
The discriminantal arrangement is the space of configurations of $n$ hyperplanes in generic position in a $k$ dimensional space (see \cite{MS}). Differently from the case $k=1$ in which it corresponds to the well known braid arrangement,…
A toric hyperplane is the preimage of a point $x \in S^1$ of a continuous surjective group homomorphism $\theta: \mathbb{T}^n \to S^1$. A finite hyperplane arrangement is a finite collection of such hyperplanes. In this paper, we study the…
We give an explicit presentation for the integral cohomology ring of the complement of any arrangement of level sets of characters in a complex torus (alias "toric arrangement"). Our description parallels the one given by Orlik and Solomon…
The k-th Fitting ideal of the Alexander invariant B of an arrangement A of n complex hyperplanes defines a characteristic subvariety, V_k(A), of the complex algebraic n-torus. In the combinatorially determined case where B decomposes as a…
We give a Orlik-Solomon type presentation for the cohomology ring of arrangements in a non-compact abelian Lie group. The new insight consists in comparing arrangements in different abelian groups. Our work is based on the Varchenko-Gelfand…
Orthogonal spaces are vector spaces together with a quadratic form whose associated bilinear form is non-degenerate. Over fields of characteristic two, there are many quadratic forms associated to a given bilinear form and quadratic…
We study Stanley-Reisner ideals of broken circuits complexes and characterize those ones admitting a linear resolution or being complete intersections. These results will then be used to characterize arrangements whose Orlik-Terao ideal has…
In these notes we study hyperplane arrangements having at least one logarithmic derivation of degree two that is not a combination of degree one logarithmic derivations. It is well-known that if a hyperplane arrangement has a linear…
Tame arrangements were informally introduced by Orlik and Terao for the study of Milnor fibers of hyperplane arrangements. After that, tame arrangements have been applied to a lot of researches on arrangements including freeness, master…
