The paper is devoted to the well-known problem of smooth structures on moment-angle manifolds. Each real or complex moment-angle manifold has an equivariant smooth structure given by an intersection of quadrics corresponding to a geometric…
We explain how to use the probabilistic method to prove the existence of real polynomial singularities with rich topology, i.e. with total Betti number of the maximal possible order. We show how similar ideas can be used to produce real…
In this work, we discuss graph like image of curves under moment maps and their relation with the Newton polygon of the curve, which has applications to Lagrangian torus fibration of Calabi-Yau manifolds.
We use some moment graph techniques, recently introduced by Lanini and P\"utz, to provide a combinatorial description of the smooth locus in flat linear degenerations of flag varieties, generalizing a result proved by Cerulli Irelli, Feigin…
In this note, we introduce the concept of momentumly closed forms. A nondegenerate momentumly closed two-form defines a moment map that generalizes the classical notion associated with symplectic forms. We then develop an extended theory of…
We study the Hessian geometry of toric multi-Taub-NUT metrics and their phase change phenomena via the images of their moment maps. This generalizes an earlier paper on toric Gibbons-Hawking metrics.
We consider toric maximum likelihood estimation over the field of Puiseux series and study critical points of the likelihood function using tropical methods. This problem translates to finding the intersection points of a tropical affine…
In order to extend our approach based on SU$*$(4), we were led to (real) projective and (line) Complex geometry. So here we start from quadratic Complexe which yield naturally the 'light cone' $x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}+x_{3}^{2}-x_{0}^{2}=0$…
The study of the topology of polynomial maps originates from classical questions in affine geometry, such as the Jacobian Conjecture, as well as from works of Whitney, Thom, and Mather in the 1950-70s on diffeomorphism types of smooth maps.…
We study the collection of measures obtained via push-forward along a map between smooth varieties over p-adic fields. We investigate when the stalks of this collection are finite-dimensional. We provide an algebro-geometric criterion…
Topological spaces - such as classifying spaces, configuration spaces and spacetimes - often admit extra temporal structure. Qualitative invariants on such directed spaces often are more informative yet more difficult to calculate than…
We investigate the real algebraic complexity of contours of amoebas associated with algebraic hypersurfaces and complete intersections in complex algebraic tori. Motivated by the foundational estimates of Lang--Shapiro--Shustin \cite{LSS},…
We consider the order of convergence for linear and nonlinear Monte Carlo approximation of compact embeddings from Sobolev spaces of dominating mixed smoothness defined on the torus $\mathbb{T}^d$ into the space $L_{\infty}(\mathbb{T}^d)$…
We give a new framework for proving the existence of low-degree, polynomial approximators for Boolean functions with respect to broad classes of non-product distributions. Our proofs use techniques related to the classical moment problem…
We study the surjectivity of suitable weighted Gaussian maps which provide a natural generalization of the standard Gaussian maps and encode the local geometry of the locus of curves endowed with a higher root of the canonical bundle having…
Congruences, or $2$-parameter families of lines in $3$-space are of interest in many situations, in particular in geometric optics. In this paper we consider elements of their geometry which are invariant under affine changes of…
For each strongly connected finite-dimensional (pure) simplicial complex we construct a finite group, the group of projectivities of the complex, which is a combinatorial but not a topological invariant. This group is studied for…
We present a framework for characterizing injectivity of classes of maps (on cosets of a linear subspace) by injectivity of classes of matrices. Using our formalism, we characterize injectivity of several classes of maps, including…
This paper is devoted to the investigation of selected situations when the computation of projective (and other) equivalences of algebraic varieties can be efficiently solved with the help of finding projective equivalences of finite sets…
This is an outline of work in progress. We study the conjecture that the topological entropy of a real cubic map depends ``monotonely'' on its parameters, in the sense that each locus of constant entropy in parameter space is a connected…
