We study the unitarity of monodromies of rank two Fuchsian systems of SL type with $(n+1)$ regular singularities on the Riemann sphere, namely, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for the monodromy group to be conjugate to a…
In this paper we show that the $SL_{2}(\mathbb C)$ character variety of the Riemann sphere $\Sigma_5$ with five boundary components is a $5$-parameter family of affine varieties of dimension $4$. We endow this family of affine varieties…
We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic morphism f with an infinite postcritical orbit over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a…
We determine the set of polynomials $f(x)\in k[x]$, where $k$ is a finite field, such that the local system on $\mathbb G_m^2$ which parametrizes the family of exponential sums $(s,t)\mapsto\sum_{x\in k}\psi(sf(x)+tx)$ has finite monodromy,…
Our aim is to find a general approach to the theory of classical solutions of the Garnier system in $n$-variables, ${\cal G}_n$, based on the Riemann-Hilbert problem and on the geometry of the space of isomonodromy deformations. Our…
We study movable singularities of Garnier systems using the connection of the latter with isomonodromic deformations of Fuchsian systems. Questions on the existence of solutions for some inverse monodromy problems are also considered.
A Fuchsian system of rank 8 in 3 variables with 4 parameters is presented. The singular locus consists of six planes and a cubic surface. The restriction of the system onto the intersection of two singular planes is an ordinary differential…
In the last years a lot of work has been concentrated on the study of the behaviour at infinity of polynomial maps. This behaviour can be very complicated, therefore the main idea was to find special classes of polynomial maps which have,…
A computation shows that there are 77 (up to scalar shifts) possible pairs of integer coefficient polynomials of degree five, having roots of unity as their roots, and satisfying the conditions of Beukers and Heckman [1], so that the…
Let X be a 2-sphere with n punctures. We classify all conjugacy classes of Zariski-dense representations $$\rho: \pi_1(X)\to SL_2(\mathbb{C})$$ with finite orbit under the mapping class group of X, such that the local monodromy at one or…
We have classified special solutions around the origin for the two-dimensional degenerate Garnier system G(1112) with generic values of complex parameters, whose linear monodromy can be calculated explicitly.
We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic polynomial over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a self-similar closed subgroup of the group of…
We give a complete classification of the finite $2$-groups $G$ for which the automorphism group $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$ acting naturally on $G$ has three orbits. There are two infinite families and one additional group, of order $2^9$. All…
This paper studies the properties of two kinds of matroids: (a) algebraic matroids and (b) finite and infinite matroids whose ground set have some canonical symmetry, for example row and column symmetry and transposition symmetry. For (a)…
In earlier work, Katz exhibited some very simple one parameter families of exponential sums which gave rigid local systems on the affine line in characteristic p whose geometric (and usually, arithmetic) monodromy groups were SL(2,q), and…
Given a matroid or flag of matroids we introduce several broad classes of polynomials satisfying Deletion-Contraction identities, and study their singularities. There are three main families of polynomials captured by our approach:…
For every integer $g \,\geq\, 2$ we show the existence of a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g$ such that the rank two trivial holomorphic vector bundle ${\mathcal O}^{\oplus 2}_{\Sigma}$ admits holomorphic connections with…
We initiate the axiomatic study of affine oriented matroids (AOMs) on arbitrary ground sets, obtaining fundamental notions such as minors, reorientations and a natural embedding into the frame work of Complexes of Oriented Matroids. The…
Differential systems with a Fuchsian linear part are studied in regions including all the singularities in the complex plane of these equations. Such systems are not necessarily analytically equivalent to their linear part (they are not…
We consider deformations of a differential system with Poincare' rank 1 at infinity and Fuchsian singularity at zero along a stratum of a coalescence locus. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the deformation to be strongly…
