Structure monoids and groups are algebraic invariants of equational varieties. We show how to construct presentations of these objects from coherent categorifications of equational varieties, generalising several results of Dehornoy. We…
The purpose of this note is to prove the existence of a remarkable structure in an iterated sumset derived from a set $P$ in a Cartesian square $\mathbb{F}_p^n\times\mathbb{F}_p^n$. More precisely, we perform horizontal and vertical sums…
Given a symmetric monoidal category $C$ with product $\sqcup$, where the neutral element for the product is an initial object, we consider the poset of $\sqcup$-complemented subobjects of a given object $X$. When this poset has finite…
Define an expansion poset to be the poset of monomials of a cluster variable attached to an arc in a polygon, where each monomial is represented by the corresponding combinatorial object from some fixed combinatorial cluster expansion…
We present new examples of topologically convex edge-ununfoldable polyhedra, i.e., polyhedra that are combinatorially equivalent to convex polyhedra, yet cannot be cut along their edges and unfolded into one planar piece without overlap.…
Coxeter polynomials are important homological invariants that are defined for a large class of finite-dimensional algebras. It is of particular interest to develop methods to compute these polynomials. We define the notion of insertion of a…
Abstract polytopes are combinatorial structures with distinctive geometric, algebraic, or topological characteristics, that generalize (the face lattice of) traditional polyhedra, polytopes or tessellations. Most research has focused on…
We show that basic homotopical notions such as homotopy sets and groups, connected and truncated maps, cellular constructions and skeleta, etc., extend to the setting of $(\infty,\infty)$-categories, as well as to presentable categories…
This paper constructs (with challenging obstacles) on the three torus with its cubical decomposition: Firstly, a combinatorial graded intersection algebra (graded by the codimension) which is commutative and associative defined by…
We identify a family of $O(|E(G)|^2)$ nontrivial facets of the connected matching polytope of a graph $G$, that is, the convex hull of incidence vectors of matchings in $G$ whose covered vertices induce a connected subgraph. Accompanying…
A hinged dissection of a set of polygons S is a collection of polygonal pieces hinged together at vertices that can be folded into any member of S. We present a hinged dissection of all edge-to-edge gluings of n congruent copies of a…
We study the exactness of certain combinatorially defined complexes which generalize the Orlik-Solomon algebra of a geometric lattice. The main results pertain to complex reflection arrangements and their restrictions. In particular, we…
It is known that a knot complement (minus two points) decomposes into ideal octahedra with respect to a given knot diagram. In this paper, we study the Ptolemy variety for such an octahedral decomposition in perspective of Thurston's gluing…
Polypols are natural generalizations of polytopes, with boundaries given by nonlinear algebraic hypersurfaces. We describe polypols in the plane and in 3-space that admit a unique adjoint hypersurface and study them from an…
We construct compact polyhedra with $m$-gonal faces whose links are generalized 3-gons. It gives examples of cocompact hyperbolic bildings of type $P(m,3)$. For $m=3$ we get compact spaces covered by Euclidean buildings of type $A_2$.
There are several real spherical models associated with a root arrangement, depending on the choice of a building set. The connected components of these models are manifolds with corners which can be glued together to obtain the…
The two pillars of Algebraic topology - Homology and homotopy theory rely on the availability of basic building blocks called cells. Cells take the form of simplexes, and have properties such as faces, sub-cells, convexity and…
We consider two categories related to symplectic manifolds: 1. Objects are symplectic manifolds and morphisms are symplectic embeddings. 2. Objects are symplectic manifolds endowed with compatible almost complex structure and morphisms are…
The integral cohomology ring of the complement of an arrangement of linear subspaces of a finite dimensional complex projective space is determined by combinatorial data, i.e. the intersection poset and the dimension function.
Polynomials in a category have been studied as a generalization of the traditional notion in mathematics. Their construction has recently been extended to higher groupoids, as formalized in homotopy type theory, by Finster, Mimram, Lucas…
