In this paper, we study the incidence algebra $T$ of the attenuated space poset $\mathcal{A}_q(N, M)$. We consider the following topics. We consider some generators of $T$: the raising matrix $R$, the lowering matrix $L$, and a certain…
The group PGL(2) of linear transformations of the projective line acts naturally on the d-dimensional projective space P^d parametrizing configurations (`d-tuples') of points on the line. In this note we are concerned with the orbits of…
Given a $2^N$-dimensional Cayley-Dickson algebra, where $3 \leq N \leq 6$, we first observe that the multiplication table of its imaginary units $e_a$, $1 \leq a \leq 2^N -1$, is encoded in the properties of the projective space PG$(N-1,2)$…
In this paper, we investigate the subset obtained by evaluations of a fixed multilinear polynomial on a given algebra. We provide an example of a multilinear polynomial, whose image is not a vector subspace; namely, the product of two…
Twisted period integrals are ubiquitous in theoretical physics and mathematics, where they inhabit a finite-dimensional vector space governed by an inner product known as the intersection number. In this work, we uncover the associated…
We consider congruences of straight lines in a plane with the combinatorics of the square grid, with all elementary quadrilaterals possessing an incircle. It is shown that all the vertices of such nets (we call them incircular or IC-nets)…
Given a smooth compact complex surface together with a holomorphic line bundle on it, using the theory of Hodge modules, we compute the twisted Hodge groups/numbers of Hilbert schemes (or Douady spaces) of points on the surface with values…
For a given hypergraph, an orientation can be assigned to the vertex-edge incidences. This orientation is used to define the adjacency and Laplacian matrices. In addition to studying these matrices, several related structures are…
We construct moduli spaces of linear self-maps of projective space with marked points, up to projective equivalence. That is, we let the special linear group act simultaneously by conjugation on projective linear maps and diagonally on…
We classify moduli spaces of arrangements of 10 lines with quadruple points. We show that moduli spaces of arrangements of 10 lines with quadruple points may consist of more than 2 disconnected components, namely 3 or 4 distinct points. We…
We study $p$-adic manifolds associated with twisted points of quotient stacks $\mathcal{X} = [U/G]$ and their quotient spaces $\pi:\mathcal{X} \to X$. We prove several structural results about the fibres of $\pi$ and derive in particular a…
In this paper, we characterise ovoidal cones by their intersection numbers. We first show that a set of points of $\mathrm{PG}(4,q)$ which intersects planes in $1$, $q+1$ or $2q+1$ points is either an ovoidal cone or a parabolic quadric,…
In this paper, we highlight that the point group structure of elliptic curves over finite or infinite fields, may be also observed on singular cubics with a quadratic component. Starting from this, we are able to introduce in a very general…
We investigate point arrangements $v_i\in\mathbb R^d,i\in \{1,...,n \}$ with certain prescribed symmetries. The arrangement space of $v$ is the column span of the matrix in which the $v_i$ are the rows. We characterize properties of $v$ in…
We consider the Cohen-Macaulay compactification of the space of twisted cubics in projective n-space. This compactification is the fine moduli scheme representing the functor of CM-curves with Hilbert polynomial 3t+1. We show that the…
We elaborate on the recent proposal that intersection numbers of certain cohomology classes on the moduli space of genus-zero Riemann surfaces with punctures compute tree-level scattering amplitudes in quantum field theories. The relevant…
We provide a unified approach, via deformations of incidence algebras, to several important types of representations with finiteness conditions, as well as the combinatorial algebras which produce them. We show that over finite dimensional…
It is well-known that there exists a bijection between the set of lines of the projective 3-dimensional space $P^3$ and all real points of the so-called Pl\"ucker quadric $\Psi$. Moreover one can identify each point of the Pl\"ucker…
An $(n_3)$ configuration is an incidence structure equivalent to a linear hypergraph on $n$ vertices which is both 3-regular and 3-uniform. We investigate a variant in which one constraint, say 3-regularity, is present, and we allow exactly…
In this article we look at a scroll of $PG(6,q)$ that uses a projectivity to rule a conic and a twisted cubic. We show this scroll is a ruled quintic surface $\mathcal V^5_2$, and study its geometric properties. The motivation in studying…
