Building sets were introduced in the study of wonderful compactifications of hyperplane arrangement complements and were later generalized to finite meet-semilattices. Convex geometries, the duals of antimatroids, offer a robust…

We present a necessary and sufficient condition for the reachable set, i.e., the set of states reachable from a ball of initial states at some time, of an ordinary differential equation to be convex. In particular, convexity is guaranteed…

The set of matrices of given positive semidefinite rank is semialgebraic. In this paper we study the geometry of this set, and in small cases we describe its boundary. For general values of positive semidefinite rank we provide a conjecture…

Motivated by questions of manifold learning, we study a sequence of random manifolds, generated by embedding a fixed, compact manifold $M$ into Euclidean spheres of increasing dimension via a sequence of Gaussian mappings. One of the…

A set-system $S\subseteq \{0,1\}^n$ is cube-ideal if its convex hull can be described by capacity and generalized set covering inequalities. In this paper, we use combinatorics, convex geometry, and polyhedral theory to give exponential…

This work is concerned with different aspects of spectrahedra and their projections, sets that are important in semidefinite optimization. We prove results on the limitations of so called Lasserre and theta body relaxation methods for…

Non-autonomous iterated function systems are a generalization of iterated function systems. If the contractions in the system are conformal mappings, it is called a non-autonomous conformal iterated function system, and its attractor is…

This paper is about integral zonotopes. It is proven that large zonotopes in a convex cone have a limit shape, meaning that, after suitable scaling, the overwhelming majority of the zonotopes are very close to a fixed convex set. Several…
