In this article we make several contributions of independent interest. First, we introduce the notion of stressed hyperplane of a matroid, essentially a type of cyclic flat that permits to transition from a given matroid into another with…
We prove some semipositivity theorems for singular varieties coming from graded polarizable admissible variations of mixed Hodge structure. As an application, we obtain that the moduli functor of stable varieties is semipositive in the…
Graded Hecke algebras can be constructed in terms of equivariant cohomology and constructible sheaves on nilpotent cones. In earlier work, their standard modules and their irreducible modules where realized with such geometric methods. We…
Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $2$. Following a method by O' Grady, we construct a semismall desingularization $\tilde{\mathcal{M}}_{Dol}^G$ of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{Dol}^G$ of semistable $G$-Higgs bundles of degree…
We develop a theory of parametrized geometric cobordism by introducing smooth Thom stacks. This requires identifying and constructing a smooth representative of the Thom functor acting on vector bundles equipped with extra geometric data,…
We introduce a general theory of homological Milnor-Witt cycle modules over an excellent base scheme equipped with a dimension function, extending both Rost's cycle modules and Feld's theory over fields. To any such module we associate a…
We study Soergel modules for arbitrary Coxeter groups. For infinite Coxeter groups, we show that the homomorphisms between Soergel modules are in general more than those coming from morphisms of Soergel bimodules. This result provides a…
This paper is an exposition of the completion of a modular group with respect to its inclusion into SL_2(Q) and the connection with the theory of modular forms and variations of mixed Hodge structure over modular curves. Among the goals of…
The Topological Representation Theorem for (oriented) matroids states that every (oriented) matroid can be realized as the intersection lattice of an arrangement of codimension one homotopy spheres on a homotopy sphere. In this paper, we…
In this work, we develop a new theory of multivariate V-filtration on D-modules along a simple normal crossing divisor and relate it with Sabbah's multi-filtration. We establish several new structural results and relate them with the Hodge…
The proof of the combinatorial Hard Lefschetz Theorem for the ``virtual'' intersection cohomology of a not necessarily rational polytopal fan that has been presented by K. Karu completely establishes Stanley's conjectures for the…
We introduce a new topological invariant of complex line arrangements in the complex projective plane, derived from the interaction between their complement and the boundary of a regular neighbourhood. The motivation is to identify Zariski…
We calculate the E-polynomials of certain twisted GL(n,C)-character varieties M_n of Riemann surfaces by counting points over finite fields using the character table of the finite group of Lie-type GL(n,F_q) and a theorem proved in the…
We explore and extend the application of homological algebra to describe quantum entanglement, initiated in arXiv:1901.02011, focusing on the Hodge-theoretic structure of entanglement cohomology in finite-dimensional quantum systems. We…
We study the cohomology ring of the Bott--Samelson variety. We compute an explicit presentation of this ring via Soergel's result, which implies that it is a purely combinatorial invariant. We use the presentation to introduce the…
For $G = \mathrm{GL}_2, \mathrm{SL}_2, \mathrm{PGL}_2$ we compute the intersection E-polynomials and the intersection Poincar\'e polynomials of the $G$-character variety of a compact Riemann surface $C$ and of the moduli space of $G$-Higgs…
Starting from any finite simple graph, one can build a reflexive polytope known as a symmetric edge polytope. The first goal of this paper is to show that symmetric edge polytopes are intrinsically matroidal objects: more precisely, we…
We investigate the cohomology of the Milnor fibre of a reflection arrangement as a module for the group $\Gamma$ generated by the reflections, together with the cyclic monodromy. Although we succeed completely only for unitary reflection…
For any subfield K of the complex numbers which is not contained in an imaginary quadratic number field, we construct conjugate varieties whose algebras of K-rational (p,p)-classes are not isomorphic. This compares to the Hodge conjecture…
We give a short and direct proof of the $\lambda_g$-Conjecture. The approach is through the Ekedahl-Lando-Shapiro-Vainshtein theorem, which establishes the ``polynomiality'' of Hurwitz numbers, from which we pick off the lowest degree…
