Suppose $A=\{a_1,\ldots,a_{n+2}\}\subset\mathbb{Z}^n$ has cardinality $n+2$, with all the coordinates of the $a_j$ having absolute value at most $d$, and the $a_j$ do not all lie in the same affine hyperplane. Suppose $F=(f_1,\ldots,f_n)$…
We construct Frobenius structures on the $\mathbb{C}^{\times}$-bundle of the complement of a toric arrangement associated with a root system, by making use of a one-parameter family of torsion free and flat connections on it. This gives…
We explore the regularity of the roots of Garding hyperbolic polynomials and real stable polynomials. As an application we obtain new regularity results of Sobolev type for the eigenvalues of Hermitian matrices and for the singular values…
The Grassmannian ${\mathcal G}_q(n,k)$ is the set of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$. It is well known that codes in the Grassmannian space can be used for error-correction in random network coding. On the…
We provide a general construction procedure for antilinearly invariant complex root spaces. The proposed method is generic and may be applied to any Weyl group allowing to take any element of the group as a starting point for the…
Root systems are sets with remarkable symmetries and therefore they appear in many situations in mathematics. Among others, denominator formulae of root systems are very beautiful and mysterious equations which have several meanings from a…
Arithmetic root systems are invariants of Nichols algebras of diagonal type with a certain finiteness property. They can also be considered as generalizations of ordinary root systems with rich structure and many new examples. On the other…
We use cluster structures and mirror symmetry to explicitly describe a natural class of Newton-Okounkov bodies for Grassmannians. We consider the Grassmannian $X=Gr_{n-k}(\mathbb C^n)$, as well as the mirror dual Landau-Ginzburg model…
Tits has defined Kac-Moody groups for all root systems, over all commutative rings with unit. A central concept is the idea of a prenilpotent pair of (real) roots. In particular, writing down his group presentation explicitly would require…
We derive a number of summation and transformation formulas for elliptic hypergeometric series on the root systems A_n, C_n and D_n. In the special cases of classical and q-series, our approach leads to new elementary proofs of the…
Let $f \in { \mathbb R} ( t) [x]$ be given by $ f(t, x) = x^n + t \cdot g(x) $ and $\beta_1 < \dots < \beta_m$ the distinct real roots of the discriminant $\Delta_{(f, x)} (t)$ of $f(t, x)$ with respect to $x$. Let $\gamma$ be the number of…
An attempt is made to understand the root spaces of Kac Moody algebras of hyperbolic type, and in particular $E_{10}$, in terms of a DDF construction appropriate to a subcritical compactified bosonic string. While the level-one root spaces…
In this paper, we exhibit new monotonicity properties of roots of families of orthogonal polynomials $P_n^{(z)}(x)$ depending polynomially on a parameter (Laguerre and Gegenbauer). By establishing that $P_n^{(z)}(x)$ are realrooted in $z$…
We investigate special points on the Grassmannian which correspond to friezes with coefficients in the case of rank two. Using representations of arithmetic matroids we obtain a theorem on subpolygons of specializations of the coordinate…
Suppose $q$ is a prime power and $f\in\mathbb{F}_q[x]$ is a univariate polynomial with exactly $t$ monomial terms and degree $<q-1$. To establish a finite field analogue of Descartes' Rule, Bi, Cheng, and Rojas (2013) proved an upper bound…
Let $F$ be a field of characteristic zero and let $E$ be the Grassmann algebra of an infinite dimensional $F$-vector space $L$. In this paper we study the superalgebra structures (that is the $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-gradings) that the algebra $E$…
The topology of Liouville sets of the real forms of the complex generic Neumann system depends indirectly on the roots of the special polynomial $U_{\cal S}(\lambda)$. For certain polynomials, the existence and positions of the real roots,…
Let $W$ be a simply laced Weyl group of finite type and rank $n$. If $W$ has type $E_7$, $E_8$, or $D_n$ for $n$ even, then the root system of $W$ has subsystems of type $nA_1$. This gives rise to an irreducible Macdonald representation of…
This article is studying the roots of the reliability polynomials of linear consecutive-\textit{k}-out-of-\textit{n}:\textit{F} systems. We are able to prove that these roots are unbounded in the complex plane, for any fixed $k\ge2$. In the…
We introduce a new problem on the elementary symmetric polynomials $\sigma_k$, stemming from the constraint equations of some modified gravity theory. For which coefficients is a linear combination of $\sigma_k$ $1/p$-concave, with $0 \leq…
