We construct uncountably many isoparametric families of hypersurfaces in Damek-Ricci spaces. We characterize those of them that have constant principal curvatures by means of the new concept of generalized Kahler angle. It follows that, in…

Our aim is to generalize the result that two generic complex line arrangements are equivalent. In fact for a line arrangement A we associate its defining polynomial, the product of a_ix+b_iy+c_i, so that A = (f=0). We prove that the…

Schubert varieties of hyperplane arrangements, also known as matroid Schubert varieties, play an essential role in the proof of the Dowling-Wilson conjecture and in Kazhdan-Lusztig theory for matroids. We study these varieties as…

In this article we prove that the ideal-Shi arrangements are free central arrangements of hyperplanes satisfying the dual-partition formula. Then it immediately follows that there exists a saturated free filtration of the cone of any affine…

This article presents a study of an algebra spanned by the faces of a hyperplane arrangement. The quiver with relations of the algebra is computed and the algebra is shown to be a Koszul algebra. It is shown that the algebra depends only on…

We show that the characteristic polynomial of a hyperplane arrangement can be recovered from the class in the Grothendieck group of varieties of the complement of the arrangement. This gives a quick proof of a theorem of Orlik and Solomon…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an affine hyperplane arrangement, $L(\mathcal{A})$ its intersection poset, and $\chi_{\mathcal{A}}(t)$ its characteristic polynomial. This paper aims to propose combinatorial structures for the factorization of…

Generalizing three-family chiral fermion conditions to $I_{ac}=-(3+h)$ and $I_{ac'}=h$, with positive integer $h$, we extend the landscape of three-family ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Pati-Salam models in a broader region. Differing from the…

We show that if $1<p\neq 2<\infty$, then any isometry of the $p$-convexification of the combinatorial Banach space associated with a hereditary family of finite subsets of $\mathbb{N}$ containing the singletons is given by a signed…

Let $S$ be a finite set of geometric objects partitioned into classes or \emph{colors}. A subset $S'\subseteq S$ is said to be \emph{balanced} if $S'$ contains the same amount of elements of $S$ from each of the colors. We study several…

For every irreducible complex representation~$\pi_\lambda$ of the symmetric group~$\S_n$, we construct, in a canonical way, a so-called intrinsic hyperplane arrangement~$\A_{\lambda}$ in the space of~$\pi_\lambda$. This arrangement is a…

The Ish arrangement was introduced by Armstrong to give a new interpretation of the $q,t$-Catalan numbers of Garsia and Haiman. Armstrong and Rhoades showed that there are some striking similarities between the Shi arrangement and the Ish…

For an ample line bundle on an Abelian or K3 surface, minimal with respect to the polarization, the relative Hilbert scheme of points on the complete linear system is known to be smooth. We give an explicit expression in quasi-Jacobi forms…

For a family $(A_q)_{q\in Q}$ of subsets of a semigroup, the product intersection set records those exponents $h \in \mathbb{N}$ for which the $h$-fold product set of the intersection, $(\bigcap_q A_q)^h$, is equal to $\bigcap_q A_q^h$, the…

It is well-known that three-family supersymmetric Pati-Salam models from intersecting D6-branes, where either one or both of the ${\rm U}(2)$ gauge factors are replaced by a ${\rm USp}(2)$ group, are quite scarce. In order to construct all…

Given two symmetric convex bodies $L \subseteq K \subseteq \R^n$ with $L$ strictly convex, we prove that there exist at least $n$ hyperplanes $H$ tangent to $L$, such that the center of mass of $H \cap K$ belongs to $\partial L$. The…

In the framework of the study of the $Sp(n)$-orbits in the real Grassmannian $G^\R(k,4n)$ of $k$-dimensional non oriented subspaces of a real $4n$-dimensional vector space $V$, here we consider the case of the isoclinic subspaces whose set…

The purpose of this article is to study the relationship between numerical invariants of certain subspace arrangements coming from reflection groups and numerical invariants arising in the representation theory of Cherednik algebras. For…

The Lefschetz hyperplane section theorem asserts that an affine variety is homotopy equivalent to a space obtained from its generic hyperplane section by attaching some cells. The purpose of this paper is to describe attaching maps of these…

A simple geometric mechanism: "the locus of intersections of perpendicular bisectors and normal lines", often arises in many guises in Nonlinear Sciences. In this paper, a new application of this simple geometric mechanism is given. Namely,…
