Let $V$ be a complex algebraic hypersurface defined by a polynomial $f$ with Newton polytope $\Delta$. It is well known that the spine of its amoeba has a structure of a tropical hypersurface. We prove in this paper that there exists a…
The paper deals with singularities of nonconfluent hypergeometric functions in several variables. Typically such a function is a multi-valued analytic function with singularities along an algebraic hypersurface. We describe such…
We show that the amoeba of a complex algebraic variety defined as the solutions to a generic system of $n$ polynomials in $n$ variables has a finite basis. In other words, it is the intersection of finitely many hypersurface amoebas.…
We consider the multilinear polytope defined as the convex hull of the set of binary points satisfying a collection of multilinear equations. The complexity of the facial structure of the multilinear polytope is closely related to the…
The topology of amoebas of complex algebraic hypersurfaces is deeply connected to the combinatorics of the Newton polytope and the convex geometry of the Ronkin function. A long-standing conjecture of Passare and Rullgard asserts that the…
We study the non-archimedean counterpart to the complex amoeba of an algebraic variety, and show that it coincides with a polyhedral set defined by Bieri and Groves using valuations. For hypersurfaces this set is also the tropical variety…
Amoebas are projections of complex algebraic varieties in the algebraic torus under a Log-absolute value map, which have connections to various mathematical subjects. While amoebas of hypersurfaces have been intensively studied in recent…
We find polyhedral divisors corresponding to the torus action of complexity one on affine trinomial hypersurfaces. Explicit computations for particular classes of such hypersurfaces including Pham-Brieskorn surfaces and rational trinomial…
We develop a collection of numerical algorithms which connect ideas from polyhedral geometry and algebraic geometry. The first algorithm we develop functions as a numerical oracle for the Newton polytope of a hypersurface and is based on…
An amoeba is the image of a subvariety of an algebraic torus under the logarithmic moment map. We consider some qualitative aspects of amoebas, establishing some results and posing problems for further study. These problems include…
We describe complex conjugation on the primitive middle-dimensional algebraic de Rham cohomology of a smooth projective hypersurface defined over a number field that admits a real embedding. We use Griffiths' description of the cohomology…
This article provides an overview of our joint work on binary polynomial optimization over the past decade. We define the multilinear polytope as the convex hull of the feasible region of a linearized binary polynomial optimization problem.…
For a system of polynomial equations, whose coefficients depend on parameters, the Newton polyhedron of its discriminant is computed in terms of the Newton polyhedra of the coefficients. This leads to an explicit formula (involving mixed…
We call a real algebraic hypersurface in $(\mathbb{C}^*)^n$ simplicial if it is given by a real Laurent polynomial in $n$-variables that has exactly $n+1$ monomials with non-zero coefficients and such that the convex hull in $\mathbb{R}^n$…
This paper studies the curvatures of amoebas and real amoebas (i.e. essentially logarithmic curvatures of the complex and real parts of a real algebraic hypersurface) and of tropical and real tropical hypersurfaces. If V is a tropical…
We derive efficient algorithms for coarse approximation of algebraic hypersurfaces, useful for estimating the distance between an input polynomial zero set and a given query point. Our methods work best on sparse polynomials of high degree…
We enumerate complex algebraic hypersurfaces in $P^n$, of a given (high) degree with one singular point of a given singularity type. Our approach is to compute the (co)homology classes of the corresponding equi-singular strata in the…
A product of cochains in a polyhedral complex is constructed. The multiplication algorithm depends on the choice of a parameter. The parameter is a linear functional on the ambient space. Cocycles form a subring of the ring of cochains,…
A new formula is obtained in algebraic topology, in terms of Betti numbers, and a new method, called the spinal method, is suggested and developed for generating quadrangulations of closed orientable surfaces. Those surfaces arise as the…
We present two algorithms that compute the Newton polytope of a polynomial defining a hypersurface H in C^n using numerical computation. The first algorithm assumes that we may only compute values of f - this may occur if f is given as a…
