Manin and Schechtman introduced a family of arrangements of hyperplanes generalizing classical braid arrangements, which they called the $\textit{discriminantal arrangements}$. Athanasiadis proved a conjecture by Bayer and Brandt providing…
We study a specific line arrangement obtained from a generic $2$-section of the braid arrangement, and compute the fundamental group of its complement via braid monodromy. We show that the resulting presentation of the fundamental group…
In 1989 Manin and Schechtman defined the discriminantal arrangement $\mathcal{B}(n, k,\mathcal{A})$ associated to a generic arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ of $n$ hyperplanes in a $k$-dimensional space. An equivalent notion was already introduced…
The discriminantal arrangement $\mathcal{B}(n,k,\mathcal{A})$ has been introduced by Manin and Schectman in 1989 and it consists of all non-generic translates of a generic arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ of n hyperplanes in a $k$-dimensional…
We define double (central and cocentral) extensions of Manin pairs introduced by Drinfeld, attached to curves and meromorphic differentials. We define ``infinite twistings'' of these pairs and quantize them in the $sl_{2}$ case, adapting…
The $2n$ dimensional manifold with two mutually commutative operators of differentiation is introduced. Nontrivial multidimensional integrable systems connected with arbitrary graded (semisimple) algebras are constructed. The general…
The complement of a complex hyperplane arrangement is known to be homotopic to a minimal CW complex. There are several approaches to the minimality. In this paper, we restrict our attention to real two dimensional cases, and introduce the…
One of the central problems in the topology of hyperplane arrangements is determining whether the complement is a $K(\pi,1)$-space. In this paper, we study Manin--Schechtman arrangements, introduced as higher-dimensional analogs of the…
We introduce a new category of differential graded multi-oriented props whose representations (called homotopy algebras with branes) in a graded vector space require a choice of a collection of $k$ linear subspaces in that space, $k$ being…
A multiplication on the 2D cohomological Hall algebra (CoHA) of the variety of commuting matrices was described by Schiffman and Vasserot. This construction can be generalised to other varieties that exist as the zero-locus of a function on…
We study the geometry of equiclassical strata of the discriminant in the space of plane curves of a given degree, which are families of curves of given degree, genus and class (degree of the dual curve). Our main observation is that the use…
In the present note we study certain arrangements of codimension $2$ flats in projective spaces, we call them "Fermat arrangements". We describe algebraic properties of their defining ideals. In particular, we show that they provide…
In this informal expository note, we quickly introduce and survey compactifications of strata of holomorphic 1-forms on Riemann surfaces, i.e. spaces of translation surfaces. In the last decade, several of these have been constructed,…
We introduce a rich family of generalizations of the pentagram map sharing the property that each generates an infinite configuration of points and lines with four points on each line. These systems all have a description as $Y$-mutations…
We develop further the algebra of cospans and spans of graphs introduced by Katis, Sabadini and Walters for the sequential and parallel composition of processes, adding here data types.
We show that points in specific degree 2 hypersurfaces in the Grassmannian $Gr(3, n)$ correspond to generic arrangements of $n$ hyperplanes in $\mathbb{C}^3$ with associated discriminantal arrangement having intersections of multiplicity…
We show that the way in which Betti cohomology varies in a proper family of complex algebraic varieties is controlled by certain "higher discriminants" in the base. These discriminants are defined in terms of transversality conditions,…
Multimodal normal incestual systems are investigated in terms of multiple categories. The different sorted composition of operators are exhibited as 2-cells in multiple categories built up from 2-categories giving rise to different axioms.…
This paper is about two arrangements of hyperplanes. The first --- the Shi arrangement --- was introduced by Jian-Yi Shi to describe the Kazhdan-Lusztig cells in the affine Weyl group of type $A$. The second --- the Ish arrangement --- was…
This paper gives insight into intriguing connections between two apparently unrelated theories: the theory of skein modules of 3-manifolds and the theory of representations of groups into special linear groups of 2 by 2 matrices. Let R be a…
