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.…
We compute the number of rhombus tilings of a hexagon with sides $a+2,b+2,c+2,a+2,b+2,c+2$ with three fixed tiles touching the border. The particular case $a=b=c$ solves a problem posed by Propp. Our result can also be viewed as the…
We prove a central limit theorem for the length of the longest subsequence of a random permutation which follows one of a class of repeating patterns. This class includes every fixed pattern of ups and downs having at least one of each,…
We consider tilings of quadriculated regions by dominoes and of triangulated regions by lozenges. We present an overview of results concerning tileability, enumeration and the structure of the space of tilings.
We prove the multiplicative version of the dimensional reduction theorem in cohomological Donaldson--Thomas theory. More precisely, we show that the BPS cohomology associated with the loop stack of a $0$-shifted symplectic stack admits a…
In this paper, we prove a transversality theorem for the moduli space of perturbed special Lagrangian submanifolds in a 6-dimensional manifold equipped with a generalization of a Calabi-Yau structure. These perturbed special Lagrangian…
A general construction principle of inflation rules for decagonal quasiperiodic tilings is proposed. The prototiles are confined to be polygons with unit edges. An inflation rule for a tiling is the combination of an expansion and a…
In 1908 Voronoi conjectured that every convex polytope which tiles space face-to-face by translations is affinely equivalent to the Dirichlet-Voronoi polytope of some lattice. In 1999 Erdahl proved this conjecture for the special case of…
We formulate and prove the Remodeling Conjecture with descendants, which is a version of all-genus equivariant descendant mirror symmetry for semi-projective toric Calabi-Yau 3-orbifolds with integral structures. We construct an isomorphism…
While it is well known from examples that no interesting `halfspace theorem' holds for properly immersed complete $n$-dimensional self-translating mean curvature flow solitons in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, we show that they must…
Three-dimensional integer partitions provide a convenient representation of codimension-one three-dimensional random rhombus tilings. Calculating the entropy for such a model is a notoriously difficult problem. We apply transition matrix…
Which polygons admit two (or more) distinct lattice tilings of the plane? We call such polygons double tiles. It is well-known that a lattice tiling is always combinatorially isomorphic either to a grid of squares or to a grid of regular…
We shall present a ``linear algebraic'' proof (involving some calculations in the algebra of linear operators on a vector space of polynomials and some manipulations of determinants) of the formula for the enumeration of symmetric…
The notion of silting mutation was introduced by Iyama and the author. In this paper we mainly study silting mutation for self-injective algebras and prove that any representation-finite symmetric algebra is tilting-connected. Moreover we…
Given a pure, full-dimensional, locally strongly connected polyhedral complex C with convex support, we characterize, by a local codimension-2 condition, polyhedral complexes that coarsen C. The proof of the characterization draws upon a…
We give a construction of a self-similar tiling of the plane with any prescribed expansion coefficient $\lambda\in\C$ (satisfying the necessary algebraic condition of being a complex Perron number). For any integer $m>1$ we show that there…
We will simplify the earlier proofs of Perelman's collapsing theorem of 3-manifolds given by Shioya-Yamaguchi and Morgan-Tian. Among other things, we use Perelman's semi-convex analysis of distance functions to construct the desired local…
Discrete analogs of extrema of curvature and generalizations of the four-vertex theorem to the case of polygons and polyhedra are suggested and developed. For smooth curves and polygonal lines in the plane, a formula relating the number of…
In a recent preprint, Lai and Rohatgi compute the generating functions of lozenge tilings of "quartered hexagons with dents" by applying the method of "graphical condensation". The purpose of this note is to exhibit how (a generalization…
We study random tiling models in the limit of high rotational symmetry. In this limit a mean-field theory yields reasonable predictions for the configurational entropy of free boundary rhombus tilings in two dimensions. We base our…
