The various types of compactifications of symmetric spaces and locally symmetric spaces are well-studied. Among them, the De Concini-Procesi compactification, also known as the wonderful compactification, of symmetric varieties has been…
In this paper we answer positively a question raised by Kapovich and Leeb in a paper titled "Finsler bordifications of symmetric and certain locally symmetric spaces". Specifically, we show that for a finite-dimensional vector space with a…
The celebrated BKK Theorem expresses the number of roots of a system of generic Laurent polynomials in terms of the mixed volume of the corresponding system of Newton polytopes.Pukhlikov and the second author noticed that the cohomology…
The first steps in defining tropicalization for spherical varieties have been taken in the last few years. There are two parts to this theory: tropicalizing subvarieties of homogeneous spaces and tropicalizing their closures in spherical…
We study the real spectrum compactification of character varieties of finitely generated groups in semisimple Lie groups. This provides a compactification with good topological properties, and we interpret the boundary points in terms of…
Given a period map defined over a quasi-projective variety, we construct a completion with rich geometric and Hodge-theoretic meaning. This result may be regarded as an analog of Mumford's toroidal compactification for locally symmetric…
Given a basic compact semi-algebraic set $\K\subset\R^n$, we introduce a methodology that generates a sequence converging to the volume of $\K$. This sequence is obtained from optimal values of a hierarchy of either semidefinite or linear…
A recent result of Frantzikinakis establishes sufficient conditions for joint ergodicity in the setting of $\mathbb{Z}$-actions. We generalize this result for actions of second-countable locally compact abelian groups. We obtain two…
We study the Cox realization of an affine variety, i.e., a canonical representation of a normal affine variety with finitely generated divisor class group as a quotient of a factorially graded affine variety by an action of the Neron-Severi…
Matrix factorization problems over various semirings naturally arise in different contexts of modern pure and applied mathematics. These problems are very hard in general and cause computational difficulties in applications. We give a…
We present an expanded expository account of the $K$-moment problem for polynomial algebras over \(\R^d\), with special emphasis on compact basic closed semialgebraic sets. The central question is to characterize those linear functionals on…
We extend a theorem by Kleiner, stating that on a group with polynomial growth, the space of harmonic functions of polynomial of at most $k$ is finite dimensional, to the settings of locally compact groups equipped with measures with…
Tropical refined invariants of toric surfaces constitute a fascinating interpolation between real and complex enumerative geometries via tropical geometry. They were originally introduced by Block and G\"ottsche, and further extended by…
We describe the semigroup of the Lipschitz saturation of a complex analytic toric singularity in arbitrary dimension. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a monomial in the normalization to belong to the Lipschitz saturation, in…
We describe a class of affine toric varieties $V$ that are set-theoretically minimally defined by codim $V+1$ binomial equations over fields of any characteristic.
The main goal of the present paper is two-fold. First we extend the theory of toroidal embeddings introduced by Kempf, Knudsen, Mumford and Saint-Donat to the class of toroidal varieties with stratifications (which is the main body of the…
We introduce a new bounded theory RS^1_2 and show that the functions which are Sigma^b_1-representable in it are precisely random functions which can be computed in polynomial time. Concretely, we pass through a class of oracle functions…
Given a monad T on a suitable enriched category B equipped with a proper factorization system (E,M), we define notions of T-completion, T-closure, and T-density. We show that not only the familiar notions of completion, closure, and density…
