Motivated by the Gray code interpretation of Hamiltonian cycles in Cayley graphs, we investigate the existence of Hamiltonian cycles in tope graphs of hyperplane arrangements, with a focus on simplicial, reflection, and supersolvable…

For a unital ring $S$, an $S$-linear quasigroup is a unital $S$-module, with automorphisms $\rho$ and $\lambda$ giving a (nonassociative) multiplication $x\cdot y=x^\rho+y^\lambda$. If $S$ is the field of complex numbers, then ordinary…

We study the effective superpotential of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories with a mass gap, whose analytic properties are encoded in an algebraic curve. We propose that the degree of the curve equals the number of semiclassical branches of…

Let $A$ be a finite dimensional $Q-$algebra and $\Gamma subset A$ a $Z-$order. We classify those $A$ with the property that $Z^2$ does not embed in $\mathcal{U}(\Gamma)$. We call this last property the hyperbolic property. We apply this in…

Over the complex numbers, the complement of a collection of hyperplanes is a widely-studied object; the cohomology ring, in particular, is known to have a structure depending only on the combinatorial properties of the intersection of…

We review recent developments in the context of two-dimensional conformally invariant sigma-models. These quantum field theories play a prominent role in the covariant superstring quantization in flux backgrounds and in the analysis of…

A connected 3-valent plane graph, whose faces are $q$- or 6-gons only, is called a {\em graph $q_n$}. We classify all graphs $4_n$, which are isometric subgraphs of a $m$-hypercube $H_m$.

The fundamental group of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement plays an important role in studying the corresponding arrangements. In particular, for large families of hyperplane arrangements, this fundamental group, being isomorphic…

For every quiver (valued) of finite representation type we define a finitely presented group called a picture group. This group is very closely related to the cluster theory of the quiver. For example, positive expressions for the Coxeter…

The operator valued distributions which arise in quantum field theory on the noncommutative Minkowski space can be symbolized by a generalization of chord diagrams, the dotted chord diagrams. In this framework, the combinatorial aspects of…

Let $S$ be a scheme such that $2$ is not a zero divisor. In this paper, we address the following question: given a quadratic algebra over $S$, how can we parametrize its Picard group in terms of quadratic forms? In 2011, Wood established a…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective connected curve of genus $g\ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $G$ be a finite group, $P$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $N_G(P)$ its normalizer in $G$. We show…

Let G be a branch group (as defined by Grigorchuk) acting on a tree T. A parabolic subgroup P is the stabiliser of an infinite geodesic ray in T. We denote by $\rho_{G/P}$ the associated quasi-regular representation. If G is discrete, these…

The Menichetti-Kaplansky theorem states that a finite semifield that is three-dimensional over its center is either a field or a twisted field of Albert. This implies that a quadratic homogeneous bijection of $\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ is…

In this note we connect the language of Bessis's Garisde categories with Salvetti's metrical-hemisphere complexes in order to find new examples of weak Garside groups. As our main example, we show that the fundamental group of the…

Random walk on the chambers of hyperplanes arrangements is used to define a family of card shuffling measures $H_{W,x}$ for a finite Coxeter group W and real $x \neq 0$. By algebraic group theory, there is a map from the semisimple orbits…

The purpose of this paper is twofold. In the first part we concentrate on hyperplane sections of algebraic schemes, and present results for determining when Gr\"obner bases pass to the quotient and when they can be lifted. The main…

A semigroup S containing a zero element is said to be 0-left cancellative if st = sr \neq 0 implies that t = r. Given such an S we build an inverse semigroup H(S), called the inverse hull of S. Motivated by the study of certain C*-algebras…

We detect topological semigroups that are topological paragroups, i.e., are isomorphic to a Rees product of a topological group over topological spaces with a continuous sandwich function. We prove that a simple topological semigroup $S$ is…

This paper continues a geometric study of Harvey's Complex of Curves, whose ultimate goal is to apply the theory of hyperbolic spaces and groups to algorithmic questions for the Mapping Class Group and geometric properties of Kleinian…
