It has been a long-standing challenge to find a geometric object underlying the cosmological wavefunction for Tr($\phi^3$) theory, generalizing associahedra and surfacehedra for scattering amplitudes. In this note we describe a new class of…

We compute the spectra of the adjacency matrices of the semi-regular polytopes. A few different techniques are employed: the most sophisticated, which relates the 1-skeleton of the polytope to a Cayley graph, is based on methods akin to…

In this paper we give a matrix version of Handelman's Positivstellensatz [1], representing polynomial matrices which are positive definite on convex, compact polyhedra. Moreover, we propose also a procedure to find such a representation. As…

Symmetric Grothendieck polynomials are inhomogeneous versions of Schur polynomials that arise in combinatorial $K$-theory. A polynomial has saturated Newton polytope (SNP) if every lattice point in the polytope is an exponent vector. We…

Since Hochster's work, spectral spaces have attracted increasing interest. Through this note we intend to show that the set of proper ideals of a ring endowed with coarse lower topology is a spectral space.

A classic theorem by Steinitz states that a graph G is realizable by a convex polyhedron if and only if G is 3-connected planar. Zonohedra are an important subclass of convex polyhedra having the property that the faces of a zonohedron are…

Given an n-tuple of positive real numbers, Konno defines an algebraic variety called a hyperpolygon space, a hyperkahler analogue of the Kahler variety parametrizing spacial polygons with fixed edge lengths. The ordinary polygon space can…

Given a linear map on the vector space of symmetric matrices, every fiber intersected with the set of positive semidefinite matrices is a spectrahedron. Using the notion of the fiber body we can build the average over all such fibers and…

This article describes a method to compute successive convex approximations of the convex hull of a set of points in R^n that are the solutions to a system of polynomial equations over the reals. The method relies on sums of squares of…

We show that the K-theory spectra of many assemblers, such as the assembler of polytopes in euclidean, hyperbolic or spherical geometry, as well as the assembler of definable sets, are equivalent to the K-theory spectrum of a squares…

Let $C$ be a proper convex cone generated by a compact set which supports a measure $\mu$. A construction due to A.Barvinok, E.Veomett and J.B. Lasserre produces, using $\mu$, a sequence $(P_k)_{k\in \mathbb{N}}$ of nested spectrahedral…
