In this paper we show that a normal affine toric variety X different from the algebraic torus is uniquely determined by its automorphism group in the category of affine irreducible, not necessarily normal, algebraic varieties if and only if…
We show that any finite affinely independent set can be isometrically embedded into a regular polygonal torus, that is, a finite product of regular polygons. As a consequence, with a straightforward application of K\v{r}\'{i}\v{z}'s…
We generalize an inequality for convex lattice polygons -- aka toric surfaces -- to general rational surfaces.
This paper constructs pavings by affine spaces for the affine Springer fibers for PGL(3) obtained from regular compact elements in a split maximal torus. These pavings are constructed by intersecting the affine Springer fiber with a…
Generalizing the passage from a fan to a toric variety, we provide a combinatorial approach to construct arbitrary effective torus actions on normal, algebraic varieties. Based on the notion of a ``proper polyhedral divisor'' introduced in…
The problem of classification of cubic homogeneous Finslerian 3D metrics with respect to their isometries is considered. It is shown, that there are 6 different general affine types of such metrics. Algebras of isometries are presented in…
Employing a centro-affine flow on smooth convex bodies, we generate new centro-affine differential invariants. One class of the newly defined invariants is the object of a sharp isoperimetric inequality, while other new inequalities on…
Suppose $P$ is a symmetric convex polygon in the plane. We give a polynomial time algorithm that decides if $P$ can tile the plane by transations at some level (not necessarily at level one; this is multiple tiling). The main technical…
We classify complex compact parallelizable manifolds which admit flat torsion free holomorphic affine connections. We exhibit complex compact manifolds admitting holomorphic affine connections, but no flat torsion free holomorphic affine…
We provide a definitive classification of all finite sets of regular polygons that admit a tiling of the hyperbolic plane, thereby establishing the decidability of the Domino Problem for this class of prototiles. We show that admissibility…
Toric log del Pezzo surfaces correspond to convex lattice polygons containing the origin in their interior and having only primitive vertices. An upper bound on the volume and on the number of boundary lattice points of these polygons is…
We define and study a new family of polytopes which are formed as convex hulls of partial alternating sign matrices. We determine the inequality descriptions, number of facets, and face lattices of these polytopes. We also study partial…
We classify affine rank three Tits arrangements whose roots are contained in the locus of a homogeneous cubic polynomial. We find that there exist irreducible affine Tits arrangements which are not locally spherical.
For two general polytopal complexes the set of face-wise affine maps between them is shown to be a polytopal complex in an algorithmic way. The resulting algorithm for the affine hom-complex is analyzed in detail. There is also a natural…
We introduce the arithmetic width of a convex body, defined as the number of distinct values a linear functional attains on the lattice points within the body. Arithmetic width refines lattice width by detecting gaps in the lattice point…
We classify surjective self-maps (of degree at least two) of affine surfaces according to the log Kodaira dimension.
Flow polytopes of acyclic oriented graphs arise naturally in combinatorial optimization, and the study of their volumes and triangulations has revealed intriguing connections across combinatorics, geometry, algebra, and representation…
A detailed combinatorial analysis of planar convex lattice polygonal lines is presented. This makes it possible to answer an open question of Vershik regarding the existence of a limit shape when the number of vertices is constrained.
Let $V$ be an absolutely irreducible affine variety over $\mathbb{F}_p$. A Lehmer point on $V$ is a point whose coordinates satisfy some prescribed congruence conditions, and a visible point is one whose coordinates are relatively prime.…
We study the behavior of a dimer model under the operation of removing a corner from the lattice polygon and taking the convex hull of the rest. This refines an operation of Gulotta, and the special McKay correspondence plays an essential…
