We introduce the notion of tropical defects, certificates that a system of polynomial equations is not a tropical basis, and provide two algorithms for finding them in affine spaces of complementary dimension to the zero set. We use these…
For tropical $n$-variable polynomials $f, g$ a criterion of containment for tropical hypersurfaces $Trop(f)\subset Trop(g)$ is provided in terms of their Newton polyhedra $N(f), N(g)\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. Namely, $Trop(f)\subset…
Let $V\subset\R^m$ be a convex body, symmetric about all coordinate hyperplanes, and let $\PP_{aV},\, a\ge 0$, be a set of all algebraic polynomials whose Newton polyhedra are subsets of $aV$. We prove a limit equality as $a\to \iy$ between…
For each infinite series of the classical Lie groups of type B,C or D, we introduce a family of polynomials parametrized by the elements of the corresponding Weyl group of infinite rank. These polynomials represent the Schubert classes in…
We present tools and definitions to study abstract tropical manifolds in dimension 2, which we call simply tropical surfaces. This includes explicit descriptions of intersection numbers of 1-cycles, normal bundles to some curves and…
We prove quasipolynomial bounds on the inverse theorem for the Gowers $U^{s+1}[N]$-norm. The proof is modeled after work of Green, Tao, and Ziegler and uses as a crucial input recent work of the first author regarding the equidistribution…
We study some basic algorithmic problems concerning the intersection of tropical hypersurfaces in general dimension: deciding whether this intersection is nonempty, whether it is a tropical variety, and whether it is connected, as well as…
We introduce a general class of symmetric polynomials that have saturated Newton polytope and their Newton polytope has integer decomposition property. The class covers numerous previously studied symmetric polynomials.
We adapt ideas of Phong, Stein and Sturm and ideas of Ikromov and M\"uller from the continuous setting to various discrete settings, obtaining sharp bounds for exponential sums and the number of solutions to polynomial congruences for…
We use Young's raising operators to give short and uniform proofs of several well known results about Schur polynomials and symmetric functions, starting from the Jacobi-Trudi identity.
We define skew Schubert polynomials to be normal form (polynomial) representatives of certain classes in the cohomology of a flag manifold. We show that this definition extends a recent construction of Schubert polynomials due to Bergeron…
As a step of a tropical approach to problems on algebraic classes of cohomology groups (such as the Hodge conjecture), in this paper, we introduce tropical analogs of (rational) Milnor $K$-groups, and prove the existence of the Gersten…
We prove that for any degree d, there exist (families of) finite sequences a_0, a_1,..., a_d of positive numbers such that, for any real polynomial P of degree d, the number of its real roots is less than or equal to the number of the…
We establish a lower bound for the complexity of multiplying two skew polynomials. The lower bound coincides with the upper bound conjectured by Caruso and Borgne in 2017, up to a log factor. We present algorithms for three special cases,…
We prove that the well-known condition of being a balanced labeling can be characterized in terms of the sliding algorithm on tower diagrams. The characterization involves a generalization of authors' Rothification algorithm. Using the…
We fix the supports A=(A_1,...,A_k) of a list of tropical polynomials and define the tropical resultant TR(A) to be the set of choices of coefficients such that the tropical polynomials have a common solution. We prove that TR(A) is the…
Erd\H os introduced the quantity $S=T\sum^T_{i=1}X_i$, where $X_1,\dots, X_T$ are arithmetic progressions, and cover the square numbers up to $N$. He conjectured that $S$ is close to $N$, i.e. the square numbers cannot be covered…
The coefficients of twisted Alexander polynomials of a knot induce regular functions of the $SL_2(\mathbb{C})$-character variety. We prove that the function of the highest degree has a finite value at an ideal point which gives a minimal…
We introduce the notion of semi-characteristic polynomial for a semi-linear map of a finite- dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic p. This polynomial has some properties in common with the classical characteristic…
The prototypical examples of tropical compactifications are compactifications of complements of hyperplane arrangements, which posses a number of remarkable properties not satisfied by more general tropical compactifications of closed…
