Let $R$ be a polynomial ring over a field and $I \subset R$ be a Gorenstein ideal of height three that is minimally generated by homogeneous polynomials of the same degree. We compute the multiplicity of the saturated special fiber ring of…

Let $A$, $B$ be two rings and $T=\left(\begin{smallmatrix} A & M \\ 0 & B \\\end{smallmatrix}\right)$ with $M$ an $A$-$B$-bimodule. We first construct a semi-complete duality pair $\mathcal{D}_{T}$ of $T$-modules using duality pairs in…

We study the Gorenstein property for phylogenetic group-based models. We prove that for the groups $\mathbb Z_3$ and $\mathbb Z_2\times \mathbb Z_2$ and trivalent trees the associated polytopes are always Gorenstein extending the results of…

To every poset P, Stanley (1986) associated two polytopes, the order polytope and the chain polytope, whose geometric properties reflect the combinatorial qualities of P. This construction allows for deep insights into combinatorics by way…

We describe an algorithm for determining whether two convex polytopes P and Q, embedded in a lattice, are isomorphic with respect to a lattice automorphism. We extend this to a method for determining if P and Q are equivalent, i.e. whether…

Hibi showed that the polynomial in the numerator of the Ehrhart series of a reflexive polytope is palindromic. We proved that those in the numerator of the Ehrhart series of every graph polytope (defined later) of the bipartite graph is…

Polynomial functors are a categorical generalization of the usual notion of polynomial, which has found many applications in higher categories and type theory: those are generated by polynomials consisting a set of monomials built from sets…

We prove that double Schubert polynomials have the Saturated Newton Polytope property. This settles a conjecture by Monical, Tokcan and Yong. Our ideas are motivated by the theory of multidegrees. We introduce a notion of standardization of…

Given a lattice $L$, a full dimensional polytope $P$ is called a {\em Delaunay polytope} if the set of its vertices is $S\cap L$ with $S$ being an {\em empty sphere} of the lattice. Extending our previous work \cite{DD-hyp} on the {\em…

E. Bayer-Fluckiger gave a necessary and sufficient condition for a polynomial to be realized as the characteristic polynomial of a semisimple isometry of an even unimodular lattice, by describing the local-global obstruction, and the author…

Let A and B be arbitrary sets with at least two elements. The arity gap of a function f: A^n \to B is the minimum decrease in its essential arity when essential arguments of f are identified. In this paper we study the arity gap of…

Let $g(x)$ be a fixed non-constant complex polynomial. It was conjectured by Schinzel that if $g(h(x))$ has boundedly many terms, then $h(x)\in \C[x]$ must also have boundedly many terms. Solving an older conjecture raised by R\'enyi and by…

We characterize the edges of two classes of $0/1$-polytopes. The first class corresponds to the stable set polytope of a graph $G$ and includes chain polytopes of posets, some instances of matroid independence polytopes, as well as…

We study singularities obtained by the contraction of the maximal divisor in compact (non kaehlerian) surfaces which contain global spherical shells. These singularities are of genus 1 or 2, may be Q-Gorenstein, numerically Gorenstein or…

The article [14] gives a list of 51 symplectic hypergeometric monodromy groups corresponding to primitive pairs of degree four polynomials, which are products of cyclotomic polynomials, and for which, the absolute value of the leading…

We show that the problem to decide whether two (convex) polytopes, given by their vertex-facet incidences, are combinatorially isomorphic is graph isomorphism complete, even for simple or simplicial polytopes. On the other hand, we give a…

Let $\mathcal{P} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a polytope whose vertices have rational coordinates. By a seminal result of E. Ehrhart, the number of integer lattice points in the $k$th dilate of $\mathcal{P}$ ($k$ a positive integer) is a…

We study the equational theory of the Weihrauch lattice with multiplication, meaning the collection of equations between terms built from variables, the lattice operations $\sqcup$, $\sqcap$, the product $\times$, and the finite…

We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic polynomial over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a self-similar closed subgroup of the group of…

This note is an introduction to the properties of stable polynomials in several variables with real or complex coefficients. These polynomials are defined in terms of where the polynomial is non-vanishing. We do not cover well-known topics…
