We compute small rational models for configuration spaces of points on oriented surfaces, as right modules over the framed little disks operad. We do this by splitting these surfaces in unions of several handles. We first describe rational…
We investigate discrete Poincar\'e inequalities on piecewise polynomial subspaces of the Sobolev spaces H(curl) and H(div) in three space dimensions. We characterize the dependence of the constants on the continuous-level constants, the…
For a subfield $\K$ of the field $\C$ of complex numbers, we consider curve and divisorial valuations on the algebra $\K[[x,y]]$ of formal power series in two variables with the coeficients in $\K$. We compute the semigroup Poincar\'e…
In this paper we use Weil conjectures (Deligne's theorem) to calculate the Betti numbers of the moduli spaces of semi-stable parabolic bundles on a curve. The quasi parabolic analogue of the Siegel formula, together with the method of…
We factor the virtual Poincare polynomial of every homogeneous space G/H, where G is a complex connected linear algebraic group and H is an algebraic subgroup, as $t^{2u} (t^2-1)^r Q_{G/H}(t^2)$ for a polynomial $Q_{G/H}$ with non-negative…
The paper is devoted to developing subdifferential theory for set-valued mappings taking values in ordered infinite-dimensional spaces. This study is motivated by applications to problems of vector and set optimization with various…
We consider the space of germs of Fedosov structures at a point, together with the group of origin-preserving diffeomorphisms acting on it. We calculate dimensions of moduli spaces of $k$-jets of generic structures and construct Poincar\'e…
Earlier, there were defined two generalized (``motivic'') versions of the Poincar\'e series of a collection of plane valuations on the algebra ${\mathcal O}_{{\mathbb C}^2,0}$ of germs of holomorphic functions in two variables. One of them…
We give an algorithm for deciding whether a planar polynomial differential system has a first integral which factorizes as a product of defining polynomials of curves with only one place at infinity. In the affirmative case, our algorithm…
This paper characterizes which subsets of C^n can be the set of positions of n points on a linkage in the complex plane C. For example, assuming compactness they are just compact semialgebraic sets. Noncompact configuration spaces are…
The estimates of the uniform norm of the Chebyshev polynomials associated with a compact set $K$ in the complex plane are established. These estimates are exact (up to a constant factor) in the case where $K$ consists of a finite number of…
The notions of deleted and restricted arrangements have been useful in the study of arrangements of hyperplanes. If A is an arrangement of hyperplanes, x in A and A', A'' the deleted and restricted arrangements, there is a formula…
The long-standing problem of minimal projections is addressed from a computational point of view. Techniques to determine bounds on the projection constants of univariate polynomial spaces are presented. The upper bound, produced by a…
Let $\mathcal{C}_{\mathbi{d}},$ $\mathcal{I}_{\mathbi{d}},$ $\mathbi{d}{=}(d_1,d_2,..., d_n)$ be the algebras of join covariants and joint invariants of the $n$ binary forms of degrees $d_1,d_2,..., d_n.$ Formulas for computation of the…
We construct and study a natural homeomorphism between the moduli space of polynomial cubic differentials of degree d on the complex plane and the space of projective equivalence classes of oriented convex polygons with d+3 vertices. This…
From a group action on a space, define a variant of the configuration space by insisting that no two points inhabit the same orbit. When the action is almost free, this "orbit configuration space" is the complement of an arrangement of…
We study combinatorics of two generalizations of Dellac configurations. First, we establish a correspondence between a generalized Dellac configuration with three parameters and a generalized Dumont permutations. Secondly, by relaxing…
Many invariants of finitely generated positive cancelative commutative semigroups can be studied from their Poincar\'e series. We offer and present several closed formulas for them. Moreover, those formulas have elementary proofs and are…
In this note we give an explicit description of the irreducible components of the reduced point varieties of quantum polynomial algebras.
We prove the $\Lambda$-variation diminishing property of the Bernstein and Kantorovich polynomials. Next we apply this result to characterize the space $C\Lambda BV_c$ as the closure of the space of polynomials in the $\Lambda BV$ norm. A…
