We prove the following variant of Levi's Enlargement Lemma: for an arbitrary arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ of $x$-monotone pseudosegments in the plane and a pair of points $a,b$ with distinct $x$-coordinates and not on the same pseudosegment,…
Arrangements of pseudohyperplanes are widely studied in computational geometry. A rich subclass of pseudohyerplane arrangements, which has gained more attention in recent years, is the so-called signotopes. Introduced by Manin and…
We give a short and self-contained proof of Levi's Extension Lemma for pseudoline arrangements.
A hyperplane arrangement is said to satisfy the ``Riemann hypothesis'' if all roots of its characteristic polynomial have the same real part. This property was conjectured by Postnikov and Stanley for certain families of arrangements which…
We consider the problem of stretching pseudolines in a planar straight-line drawing to straight lines while preserving the straightness and the combinatorial embedding of the drawing. We answer open questions by Mchedlidze et al. by showing…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of augmentation for polytopes and use it to show the error in two presumptions that have been key in arriving at over-reaching/over-scoped claims of "impossibility" in recent extended formulations (EF)…
We show that the number of lines in an $m$--homogeneous supersolvable line arrangement is upper bounded by $3m-3$ and we classify the $m$--homogeneous supersolvable line arrangements with two modular points up-to lattice-isotopy. A lower…
We compute all isomorphism classes of simplicial arrangements in the real projective plane with up to 27 lines. It turns out that Gr\"unbaums catalogue is complete up to 27 lines except for four new arrangements with 22, 23, 24, 25 lines,…
We prove extension of a di-bar-closed, smooth, form from the intersection of a pseudoconvex domain with a complex hyperplane to the whole domain. The extension form is di-bar-closed, has harmonic coefficients and its L^2-norm is estimated…
The extension space conjecture of oriented matroid theory states that the space of all one-element, non-loop, non-coloop extensions of a realizable oriented matroid of rank $d$ has the homotopy type of a sphere of dimension $d-1$. We…
This paper is devoted to the classification problems concerning extended deformations of convex polyhedra and real hyperplane arrangements in the following senses: combinatorial equivalence of face posets, normal equivalence on normal fans…
We study supersolvable line arrangements in ${\mathbb P}^2$ over the reals and over the complex numbers, as the first step toward a combinatorial classification. Our main results show that a nontrivial (i.e., not a pencil or near pencil)…
let f be an endomorphism of a complex projective space, of degree bigger than one. Let us call an algebraic subset exceptional for f, if its inverse image is set-theoretically equal to itself. J.-Y. Briend, S. Cantat and M. Shishikura…
Begin with a set of four points in the real plane in general position. Add to this collection the intersection of all lines through pairs of these points. Iterate. Ismailescu and Radoi\v{c}i\'{c} (2003) showed that the limiting set is dense…
We study biplane graphs drawn on a finite point set $S$ in the plane in general position. This is the family of geometric graphs whose vertex set is $S$ and which can be decomposed into two plane graphs. We show that every sufficiently…
We extend a previous conjecture [cond-mat/0407477] relating the Perron-Frobenius eigenvector of the monodromy matrix of the O(1) loop model to refined numbers of alternating sign matrices. By considering the O(1) loop model on a…
A {\em simple drawing} $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ is one where each pair of edges share at most one point: either a common endpoint or a proper crossing. An edge $e$ in the complement of $G$ can be {\em inserted} into $D(G)$ if there exists a…
Any stretching of Ringel's non-Pappus pseudoline arrangement when projected into the Euclidean plane, implicitly contains a particular arrangement of nine triangles. This arrangement has a complex constraint involving the sines of its…
The classical 1991 result by Brightwell and Winkler states that the number of linear extensions of a poset is #P-complete. We extend this result to posets with certain restrictions. First, we prove that the number of linear extension for…
We study the log-rank conjecture from the perspective of point-hyperplane incidence geometry. We formulate the following conjecture: Given a point set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is covered by constant-sized sets of parallel hyperplanes, there…
