Polynomial solutions to the KP hierarchy are known to be parametrized by a cone over an infinite-dimensional Grassmann variety. Using the notion of Schubert derivation on a Grassmann algebra, we encode the classical Pl\"ucker equations of…

Our main result is that every n-dimensional polytope can be described by at most (2n-1) polynomial inequalities and, moreover, these polynomials can explicitly be constructed. For an n-dimensional pointed polyhedral cone we prove the bound…

Let $R$ be a polynomial ring over a field. We describe the extremal rays and the facets of the cone of local cohomology tables of finitely generated graded $R$-modules of dimension at most two. Moreover, we show that any point inside the…

The concept of full points of abstract unitals has been introduced by Korchm\'aros, Siciliano and Sz\H{o}nyi as a tool for the study of projective embeddings of abstract unitals. In this paper we give a more detailed description of the…

We consider polyhedral cones, associated with quasi-semi-metrics (oriented distances), in particular, with oriented multi-cuts, on n points. We computed the number of facets and of extreme rays, their adjacencies, and incidences of the…

In this article, we introduce combinatorial models for poly-Bernoulli polynomials and poly-Euler numbers of both kinds. As their applications, we provide combinatorial proofs of some identities involving poly-Bernoulli polynomials.

The theory of intrinsic volumes of convex cones has recently found striking applications in areas such as convex optimization and compressive sensing. This article provides a self-contained account of the combinatorial theory of intrinsic…

We give a combinatorial characterization of the family of lines of P G(3, q) which meet a hyperbolic quadric in two points (the so called secant lines) using their intersection properties with the points and planes of PG(3,q).

We describe a characterization of convex polyhedra in $\h^3$ in terms of their dihedral angles, developed by Rivin. We also describe some geometric and combinatorial consequences of that theory. One of these consequences is a combinatorial…

We give a description of prepositive cones -- a notion of ordering on algebras with involution introduced by Astier and Unger -- in the specific context of quaternion algebras with involution. Our main result establishes that, for a broad…

We present a complete computational classification of the combinatorial types of hyperplane sections, or slices, of the regular cube up to dimension six. For each dimension, we determine the exact number of distinct combinatorial types.…

We show that the size of the intersection of a Hermitian variety in $\PG(n,q^2)$, and any set satisfying an $r$-dimensional-subspace intersection property, is congruent to 1 modulo a power of $p$. In particular, in the case where $n=2$, if…

Convex or concave sequences of $n$ positive terms, viewed as vectors in $n$-space, constitute convex cones with $2n-2$ and $n$ extreme rays, respectively. Explicit description is given of vectors spanning these extreme rays, as well as of…

We classify the algebraic combinatorial geometries of arbitrary field extensions of transcendence degree greater than 4 and describe their groups of automorphisms. Our results and proofs extend similar results and proofs by Evans and…

We first introduce a configuration of arbitrary isogonal conjugates related to a known property concerning the spiral center of two pairs of isogonal conjugates. We then consider a special case where two conics are tangent at exactly two…

We classify the combinatorial types of Murai spheres in dimensions $1$ and $2$, thereby showing that the corresponding convex simple polytopes have Delzant realizations. Then we describe all chordal Murai spheres $\mathrm{Bier}_c(M)$ with…

For every proper convex cone $K \subset \mathbb R^3$ there exists a unique complete hyperbolic affine 2-sphere with mean curvature $-1$ which is asymptotic to the boundary of the cone. Two cones are associated if the corresponding affine…

The problem of classifying linear systems of conics in projective planes dates back at least to Jordan, who classified pencils (one-dimensional systems) of conics over $\mathbb{C}$ and $\mathbb{R}$ in 1906--1907. The analogous problem for…

As already done for the matrix case for example in [Joe Harris, Algebraic Geometry - A first course, p.256] we give a parametrization of the Bouligand tangent cone of the variety of tensors of bounded TT rank. We discuss how the proof…

We give a generalization of "Curious Identity" of De Concini and Procesi. Our proof is based on the recent result of Waldspurger about the decomposition of the cone dual to the fundamental chamber of a finite reflection group as a disjoint…
