We establish the equidistribution with respect to the bifurcation measure of post-critically finite maps in any one-dimensional algebraic family of unicritical polynomials. Using this equidistribution result, together with a combinatorial…

We compute a primary cohomological obstruction to the existence of an equipartition for j mass distributions in R^d by two hyperplanes in the case 2d-3j = 1. The central new result is that such an equipartition always exists if d=6 2^k +2…

We prove new upper and lower bounds on $\epsilon$-approximate sign-rank, a relaxation of sign-rank introduced by Chornomaz, Moran, and Waknine (STOC 2025). We show that every $m \times n$ sign matrix with approximate sign-rank $d$ contains…

Let n,d be positive integers, with d even (say d=2e). Let X_(n,d) denote the locus of degree d hypersurfaces in P^n which consist of two e-fold hyperplanes. We bound the regularity of the ideal of this variety. Moreover, we show that this…

In the first part of this paper, we consider, in the context of an arbitrary hyperplane arrangement, the map between compactly supported cohomology to the usual cohomology of a local system. A formula (i.e., an explicit algebraic de Rham…

Given a set of points $P$ and a set of regions $\mathcal{O}$, an incidence is a pair $(p,o ) \in P \times \mathcal{O}$ such that $p \in o$. We obtain a number of new results on a classical question in combinatorial geometry: What is the…

We prove an upper bound of the form $2^{O(d^2 \mathrm{polylog}\,d)}$ on the number of affine (resp. linear) equivalence classes of, by increasing order of generality, 2-level d-polytopes, d-cones and d-configurations. This in particular…

We consider the problem of computing sample points in each connected component of a semi-algebraic set defined by the non-vanishing or the positivity of an n-variate polynomial of degree d, with rational coefficients of bit size bounded by…

We give a simple proof of the matrix Spencer conjecture up to poly-logarithmic rank: given symmetric $d \times d$ matrices $A_1,\ldots,A_n$ each with $\|A_i\|_{\mathsf{op}} \leq 1$ and rank at most $n/\log^3 n$, one can efficiently find…

For a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb R^d$, for any $d\ge 2$, a hyperplane $h$ is called $k$-rich with respect to $P$ if it contains at least $k$ points of $P$. Answering and generalizing a question asked by Peyman Afshani, we show that…

One of the equivalent formulations of the Kadison-Singer problem which was resolved in 2013 by Marcus, Spielman and Srivastava, is the "paving conjecture". Roughly speaking, the paving conjecture states that every positive semi-definite…

The Topological Tverberg Theorem claims that any continuous map of a (q-1)(d+1)-simplex to \R^d identifies points from q disjoint faces. (This has been proved for affine maps, for d=1, and if q is a prime power, but not yet in general.) The…

The Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) lemma allows subsets of a high-dimensional space to be embedded into a lower-dimensional space while approximately preserving all pairwise Euclidean distances. This important result has inspired an extensive…

We introduce a novel concept of rank for subsets of finite metric spaces E^n_q (the set of all n-dimensional vectors over an alphabet of size q) equipped with the Hamming distance, where the rank R(A) of a subset A is defined as the number…

We consider the structure of Pisot substitution tiling spaces, in particular, the structure of those spaces for which the translation action does not have pure discrete spectrum. Such a space is always a measurable m-to-one cover of an…

Given a smooth totally nonholonomic distribution on a smooth manifold, we construct a singular distribution capturing essential abnormal lifts which is locally generated by vector fields with controlled divergence. Then, as an application,…

We describe an algorithm computing the monodromy and the pole order filtration on the top Milnor fiber cohomology of hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^n$ whose pole order spectral sequence degenerates at the second page. In the case of…

Let S be a smooth, projective surface of Picard rank 1 and very ample generator embedding S into P^n. Let C be a smooth curve in O(m) for m \geq 5. We prove that any base-point free, complete g^r_d on C for r\in\{1,2\} and d small enough is…

We prove that for every graph $G$ with a sufficiently large complete bipartite induced minor, either $G$ has an induced minor isomorphic to a large wall, or $G$ contains a large constellation; that is, a complete bipartite induced minor…

In this paper we consider a family of projective embeddings of the geometry $\Gamma = A_{n,\{1,n\}}(F)$ of point-hyperplanes flags of the projective geometry $\Sigma = PG(n,F)$. The natural embedding $\varepsilon_{mathrm{nat}}$ is one of…
