A discriminantal hyperplane arrangement B(n,k,A) is constructed from a given (generic) hyperplane arrangement A, which is classified as either very generic or non-very generic depending on the combinatorial structure of B(n,k,A). In…

Mixed-parity module emerges for instance when a de Rham Galois representation is being tensored with a square root of cyclotomic character, which produces half odd integers as the corresponding Hodge-Tate weights. We build the whole…

We use the theory of hyperplane arrangements to construct natural bases for the homology of partition lattices of types A, B and D. This extends and explains the "splitting basis" for the homology of the partition lattice given in [Wa96],…

We study and classify representations of a torsion group $G$ over an idempotent semifield with special attention on the case over the Boolean semifield $\mathbb{B}$. In subsequent work we extend this theory to studying representations of…

A hyperplane arrangement is said to satisfy the ``Riemann hypothesis'' if all roots of its characteristic polynomial have the same real part. This property was conjectured by Postnikov and Stanley for certain families of arrangements which…

It is an open question to give a combinatorial interpretation of the Falk invariant of a hyperplane arrangement, i.e. the third rank of successive quotients in the lower central series of the fundamental group of the arrangement. In this…

Let $r \leqslant n$ be nonnegative integers, and let $N = \binom{n}{r} - 1$. For a matroid $M$ of rank $r$ on the finite set $E = [n]$ and a partial field $k$ in the sense of Semple--Whittle, it is known that the following are equivalent:…

We present an algebraic framework which simultaneously generalizes the notion of linear subspaces, matroids, valuated matroids, and oriented matroids. We call the resulting objects matroids over hyperfields. In fact, there are (at least)…

Motivated by entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes, where the hull dimension determines the number of required pre-shared entangled pairs, we study hulls of two families of $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear codes defined by…

This paper gives a geometric interpretation of the notion of quasi-symmetric representation and uses this to show that the discriminant locus associated to such a representation is a hyperplane arrangement. Moreover, we identify this…

We show new algorithms and constructions over linear delta-matroids. We observe an alternative representation for linear delta-matroids, as a contraction representation over a skew-symmetric matrix. This is equivalent to the more standard…

We develop a discrete gauge-theoretic framework for superposition in large language models (LLMs) that replaces the single-global-dictionary premise with a sheaf-theoretic atlas of local semantic charts. Contexts are clustered into a…

We undertake a combinatorial study of the piecewise linear map g : R^{2m+2n} --> R^{mn} which assigns to the four vectors a, A in R^m and b, B in R^n the m by n matrix given by g_{ij} = min (a_i + b_j, A_i+B_j). This map arises naturally in…

This note is mostly an expository survey, centered on the topology of complements of hyperplane arrangements, their Milnor fibrations, and their boundary structures. An important tool in this study is provided by the degree 1 resonance and…

Let $P(h),h\in]0,1]$ be a semiclassical scalar differential operator of order $2$. The existence of a supersymmetric structure given by a matrix $G(x;h)$ was exhibited in \cite{HeHiSj13} under rather general assumptions. In this note we…

Let $c\in \mathbb{C}^{m},$ $f:\mathbb{C}^{m}\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^{n}(\mathbb{C})$ be a linearly nondegenerate meromorphic mapping over the field $\mathcal{P}_{c}$ of $c$-periodic meromorphic functions in $\mathbb{C}^{m}$, and let $H_{j}$…

Let $\rho\colon G\to \mathrm{GL}_n(K)$ be an continuous irreducible representation of a compact group over a complete discretely valued field $K$. Let $W_i,W_j$ be two irreducible subrepresentations of $\overline{\rho}^{ss}$, the…

The multivariate Tutte polynomial $\hat Z_M$ of a matroid $M$ is a generalization of the standard two-variable version, obtained by assigning a separate variable $v_e$ to each element $e$ of the ground set $E$. It encodes the full structure…

A transversal matroid $M$ of rank $r$ on $[n]$ can be associated to a family of binary matrices corresponding to different presentations of $M$. We describe those matrices which arise from unique maximal presentations of size $r$- giving a…

In the present paper we introduce a notion of $G-$decompositions of matrices. Main result of the paper is that a symmetric matrix $A_m$ has a $G-$decomposition in the class of stochastic (resp. substochastic) matrices if and only if $A_m$…
