This paper studies the poles of the real Archimedean zeta function for a weighted homogeneous polynomial $f \in \mathbb{R}[x, y]$ with an isolated singularity at the origin. By applying a weighted blow-up, we derive the meromorphic…

Poincare Polynomial of a Kac-Moody Lie algebra can be obtained by classifying the Weyl orbit $W(\rho)$ of its Weyl vector $\rho$. A remarkable fact for Affine Lie algebras is that the number of elements of $W(\rho)$ is finite at each and…

For the affine and hyperbolic root system the symmetric part of the centralizers of root subgroups in the corresponding Steinberg groups are calculated. In the affine case the corresponding root subsystems can be computed in term of the…

We find automorphic form corrections which are generalized Lorentzian Kac--Moody superalgebras without odd real simple roots (see R. Borcherds \cite{Bo1} -- \cite{Bo7}, V. Kac \cite{Ka1} -- \cite{Ka3}, R. Moody \cite{Mo} and \S~6 of this…

General hyperplane sections of a Fano threefold $Y$ of index 2 and Picard rank 1 are del Pezzo surfaces, and their Picard group is related to a root system. To the corresponding roots, we associate objects in the Kuznetsov component of $Y$…

We present a simple method for determining the shape of fundamental domains of generalized modular groups related to Weyl groups of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras. These domains are given as subsets of certain generalized upper half planes,…

Suppose that X is a Fano manifold that corresponds under Mirror Symmetry to a Laurent polynomial f, and that P is the Newton polytope of f. In this setting it is expected that there is a family of algebraic varieties over the unit disc with…

We use tools of additive combinatorics for the study of subvarieties defined by {\it high rank} families of polynomials in high dimensional $\mathbb{F} _q$-vector spaces. In the first, analytic part of the paper we prove a number properties…

We present a variant of the Theory of Lorentzian (i. e. with a hyperbolic generalized Cartan matrix) Kac-Moody algebras recently developed by V. A. Gritsenko and the author. It is closely related with and strongly uses results of R.…

Let $X$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$ and $f$ a quasi-unipotent automorphism of $X$. When $\mathbf{k}$ is the field of complex numbers, Lin, Oguiso, and D.-Q. Zhang provide an explicit formula for the…

Let $W$ be an affine Weyl group, and let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$. The diagrammatic Hecke category $\mathcal{D}$ for $W$ over $\Bbbk$ is a categorification of the Hecke algebra for $W$ with rich connections to modular…

We show that, given a rank 3 affine root system $\Phi$ with Weyl group $W$, there is a unique oriented matroid structure on $\Phi$ which is $W$-equivariant and restricts to the usual matroid structure on rank 2 subsystems. Such oriented…

In this note, we investigate an infinite one parameter family of circle packings, each with a set of three mutually tangent circles. We use these to generate an infinite set of circle packings with the Apollonian property. That is, every…

We study the family of commutative subspaces in the trigonometric holonomy Lie algebra $t^{\mathrm{trig}}_{\Phi}$, introduced by Toledano Laredo, for an arbitrary root system $\Phi$. We call these subspaces \emph{Bethe subspaces} because…

Let $\mathcal P_{\Phi}$ be the root polytope of a finite irreducible crystallographic root system $\Phi$, i.e., the convex hull of all roots in $\Phi$. The polar of $\mathcal P_{\Phi}$, denoted $\mathcal P_{\Phi}^*$, coincides with the…
