We establish basic facts about the varieties of homogeneous polynomials divisible by powers of linear forms, and explain consequences for geometric complexity theory. This includes quadratic set-theoretic equations, a description of the…

We expand the basic geometric elements of the simplex method to linear programs in locally convex topological vector spaces and provide conditions under which the method converges in value to optimality. This setting generalizes many…

Counting integer points in large convex bodies with smooth boundaries containing isolated flat points is oftentimes an intermediate case between balls (or convex bodies with smooth boundaries having everywhere positive curvature) and cubes…

Let K be an infinite field and let R be a K-algebra endowed with a homogeneous polynomial norm N of degree n. If N satisfies a formal analogue of the Cayley-Hamilton Theorem the we will show that R is a quotient of the ring of the…

The objective of this paper is to complete certain issues from our recent contribution [J. Calatayud, J.-C. Cort\'es, M. Jornet, L. Villafuerte, Random non-autonomous second order linear differential equations: mean square analytic…

For a regular, compact, polynomially convex circled set K in C^2, we construct a sequence of pairs {P_n,Q_n} of homogeneous polynomials in two variables with deg P_n = deg Q_n = n such that the sets K_n: = {(z,w) \in C^2 : |P_n(z,w)| \leq…

Equifacetal simplices, all of whose codimension one faces are congruent to one another, are studied. It is shown that the isometry group of such a simplex acts transitively on its set of vertices, and, as an application, equifacetal…

We show that for all homogeneous polynomials $ f_{m}$ of degree $m$, in $d$ variables, and each $j = 1, \dots , d$, we have \begin{equation*} \left\langle x_{j}^{2}f_{m},f_{m}\right\rangle _{L^{2}\left( \mathbb{S}% ^{d-1}\right) } \geq…

The Deligne-Simpson problem in the multiplicative version is formulated like this: {\em give necessary and sufficient conditions for the choice of the conjugacy classes $C_j\in SL(n,{\bf C})$ so that there exist irreducible $(p+1)$-tuples…

Majorization inequalities for symmetric polynomials have interested mathematicians for centuries, from the AM-GM inequality for two variables going back at least to Euclid, through classical results of Newton, Muirhead and Gantmacher, to…

We generalize certain totient functions using elementary symmetric polynomials and derive explicit product forms for the totient functions involving the second elementary symmetric sum. This work follows from the work of Toth [The Ramanujan…

This work is a study of polynomial compositions having a fixed number of terms. We outline a recursive method to describe these characterizations, give some particular results and discuss the general case. In the final sections, some…

We initiate the study of subpolytopes of the permutahedron that arise as the convex hulls of stack-sorting on permutations. We primarily focus on $Ln1$ permutations, i.e., permutations of length $n$ whose penultimate and last entries are…

We prove non-trivial bounds for bilinear forms with hyper-Kloosterman sums with characters modulo a prime $q$ which, for both variables of length $M$, are non-trivial as soon as $M\geq q^{3/8+\delta}$ for any $\delta>0$. This range, which…

We show that the conditions imposed on a second order linear differential equation with rational coefficients on the complex line by requiring it to have regular singularities with fixed exponents at the points of a finite set $P$ and…

The "simplicial complexes" and "join" (*) today used within combinatorics aren't the classical concepts, cf. Spanier (1966) p. 108-9, but, exept for \emptyset, complexes having {\emptyset} as a subcomplex resp. \Sigma1 * \Sigma2 := {\sigma1…

In 1888 Hilbert showed that every nonnegative homogeneous polynomial with real coefficients of degree $2d$ in $n$ variables is a sum of squares if and only if $d=1$ (quadratic forms), $n=2$ (binary forms) or $(n,d)=(3,2)$ (ternary…

In this paper, pursuing the same line of ideas in the proof of an old longstanding open conjecture of \emph{Kadison-Singer} , we introduce a key lemma which we call it the interlacing lemma which indicates a necessary condition for having a…

A construction of algebraic surfaces based on two types of simple arrangements of lines, containing the prototiles of substitution tilings, has been proposed recently. The surfaces are derived with the help of polynomials obtained from…

We study the representation theory of the nested instantons quiver presented in [1], which describes a particular class of surface defects in four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories. We show that the moduli space of its stable…
