We solve and generalize an open problem posted by James Propp (Problem 16 in New Perspectives in Geometric Combinatorics, Cambridge University Press, 1999) on the number of tilings of quasi-hexagonal regions on the square lattice with every…
We consider the algebra of Hecke correspondences (elementary transformations at a single point) acting on the algebraic K-theory groups of the moduli spaces of stable sheaves on a smooth projective surface S. We derive quadratic relations…
We study a class of duality transformations in generalised Z(2) gauge theories and Ising models on two- and three-dimensional compact lattices. The theories are interpreted algebraically in terms of the structure constants of a…
The basic disentanglement theorem established by the present authors states that estimates on a weighted geometric mean over (convex) families of functions can be disentangled into quantitatively linked estimates on each family separately.…
To every minimal model of a complete local isolated cDV singularity Donovan--Wemyss associate a finite dimensional symmetric algebra known as the contraction algebra. We construct the first known standard derived equivalences between these…
We give a new proof of the following interesting fact recently proved by Bower and Michael: if a d-dimensional rectangular box can be tiled using translates of two types of rectangular bricks, then it can also be tiled in the following way.…
We prove that the "Thaddeus flips" of $L$-twisted sheaves constructed by Matsuki and Wentworth can be obtained via Bridgeland wall-crossing. Similarly, we realize the change of polarization for moduli spaces of 1-dimensional Gieseker…
It is shown that there are primitive substitution tilings with dense tile orientations invariant under n-fold rotation for n=2,3,4,5,6,8. The proof for dense tile orientations uses a general result about irrationality of angles in certain…
Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a set of finite measure. The periodic tiling conjecture suggests that if $\Omega$ tiles $\mathbb{R}^d$ by translations then it admits at least one periodic tiling. Fuglede's conjecture suggests that…
We consider domino tilings of three-dimensional cubiculated regions. A flip is a local move: two neighboring parallel dominoes are removed and placed back in a different position. The twist is an integer associated to each tiling, which is…
In the 1970s Thurston introduced a technique known as ``jiggling'' which brings any triangulation into general position (a stronger version of transversality) by subdividing and perturbing. This result is now known as Thurston's jiggling…
We show that in the presence of $n$-fold rotation symmetries and time-reversal symmetry, the number of fermion flavors must be a multiple of $2n$ ($n=2,3,4,6$) on two-dimensional lattices, a stronger version of the well-known fermion…
Hypersimplices are well-studied objects in combinatorics, optimization, and representation theory. For each hypersimplex, we define a new family of subpolytopes, called r-stable hypersimplices, and show that a well-known regular unimodular…
In the derived category of a commutative noetherian ring, we explicitly construct a silting object associated with each sp-filtration of the Zariski spectrum satisfying the "slice" condition. Our new construction is based on local…
This paper is the first part of a project aimed at understanding deformations of triangulated categories, and more precisely their dg and A infinity models, and applying the resulting theory to the models occurring in the Homological Mirror…
We count tilings of the $n \times m$ rectangular grid, cylinder, and torus with arbitrary tile sets up to arbitrary symmetries of the square and rectangle, along with cyclic shifting of rows and columns. This provides a unifying framework…
This paper gives the first description of derived monodromy on the stringy K\"ahler moduli space (SKMS) for a general irreducible flopping curve C in a 3-fold X with mild singularities. We do this by constructing two new infinite helices:…
We present a simplified proof of a forty-year-old result concerning the tiling of the plane with equilateral convex polygons. Our approach is based on a theorem by M. Rao, who used an exhaustive computer search to confirm the completeness…
The classical Sturm-Hurwitz-Kellogg theorem asserts that a function, orthogonal to an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle, has at least n+1 sign changes. We prove the converse: given an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle and…
In this paper, we introduce certain new features of the shuffle algebra, that will allow us to obtain explicit formulas for the isomorphism between its Drinfeld double and the elliptic Hall algebra.
