Superspace of rank $n$ is a $\mathbb{Q}$-algebra with $n$ commuting generators $x_1, \dots, x_n$ and $n$ anticommuting generators $\theta_1, \dots, \theta_n$. We present an extension of the Vandermonde determinant to superspace which…
Motivated by questions on the ranges of commutators of dilated floor functions and one posed in Problem 27327 from Gazeta Matematic\u{a}, we investigate the precise ranges of certain generalized polynomials depending on a real parameter and…
We first prove a new separating hyperplane theorem characterizing when a pair of compact convex subsets $K, K'$ of the Euclidean space intersect, and when they are disjoint. The theorem is distinct from classical separation theorems. It…
In this paper, we uncover a new uncertainty principle that governs the complexity of Boolean functions. This principle manifests as a fundamental trade-off between two central measures of complexity: a combinatorial complexity of its…
The numerical analysis of variational integrators relies on variational error analysis, which relates the order of accuracy of a variational integrator with the order of approximation of the exact discrete Lagrangian by a computable…
We modify the well-known interior penalty finite element discretization method so that it allows for element-by-element assembly. This is possible due to the introduction of additional unknowns associated with the interfaces between…
The classical Kantorovich-Rubinstein duality guarantees coincidence between metrics on the space of probability distributions defined on the one hand via transport plans (couplings) and on the other hand via price functions. Both…
From a transfer formula in multivariate finite operator calculus, comes an expansion for the determinant similar to Ryser's formula for the permanent. Although this one contains many more terms than the usual determinant formula. To prove…
In this work we derive and analyze variational integrators of higher order for the structure-preserving simulation of mechanical systems. The construction is based on a space of polynomials together with Gauss and Lobatto quadrature rules…
Let $\mathscr{M}$ be a conditional oriented matroid. We define a graded algebra $\widehat{\mathscr{VG}}_\mathscr{M}$ with vector space dimension given by the number of covectors in $\mathscr{M}$ which admits a distinguished filtration…
We study the distance set problem for pairs of compact sets $A, B\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$. We show that if $B$ is contained in a hyperplane and \begin{align*} \dim_{H} A+\dim_{H} B>n, \end{align*} then the distance set $…
A new approximation of the discriminant of a second order periodic differential equation is presented as a recursive summation of the evaluation of its excitation function at different values of time. The new approximation is obtained, at…
The permanent-determinant method and its generalization, the Hafnian-Pfaffian method, are methods to enumerate perfect matchings of plane graphs that was discovered by P. W. Kasteleyn. We present several new techniques and arguments related…
Discriminantal arrangements are hyperplane arrangements, which are generalized braid ones. They are constructed from given hyperplane arrangements, but their combinatorics are not invariant under combinatorial equivalence. However, it is…
Let $V$ be a valuation domain of rank one and quotient field $K$. Let $\overline{\hat{K}}$ be a fixed algebraic closure of the $v$-adic completion $\hat K$ of $K$ and let $\overline{\hat{V}}$ be the integral closure of $\hat V$ in…
We extend Deligne's notion of determinant functor to tensor triangulated categories. Specifically, to account for the multiexact structure of the tensor, we define a determinant functor on the 2-multicategory of triangulated categories and…
We compute the equation of the 7-secant variety to the Veronese variety (P^4,O(3)), its degree is 15. This is the last missing invariant in the Alexander-Hirschowitz classification. It gives the condition to express a homogeneous cubic…
In this paper, we will give an upper bound of the number of auxiliary hypersurfaces in the determinant method, which reformulates an unpublished work of Salberger by Arakelov geometry. One of the key constants will be determined by the…
The determinantal form of the partition function of the 6-vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions was given by Izergin. It is known that for a special value of the crossing parameter the partition function reduces to a Schur…
