We discuss the distribution of the spectrum at infinity of a convenient and nondegenerate Laurent polynomial (singularity side) and the distribution of the Newton spectrum of a polytope (Ehrhart theory side). To this end, we study a hard…
We provide functional analogues of the classical geometric inequality of Rogers and Shephard on products of volumes of sections and projections. As a consequence we recover (and obtain some new) functional versions of Rogers-Shephard type…
We study convexity properties of the zeros of some special functions that follow from the convexity theorem of Sturm. We prove results on the intervals of convexity for the zeros of Laguerre, Jacobi and ultraspherical polynomials, as well…
We study the algebraic geometrical background of the Penner--Kontsevich matrix model with the potential $N\alpha \tr {\bigl(- \fr 12 \L X\L X +\log (1-X)+X\bigr)}$. We show that this model describes intersection indices of linear bundles on…
We identify the set of extreme points and apply Choquet theory to a normalized matrix-measure ball subject to finitely many linear side constraints. As an application we obtain integral representation formulas for the Herglotz class of…
We study algebraic curves that are envelopes of families of polygons supported on the unit circle T. We address, in particular, a characterization of such curves of minimal class and show that all realizations of these curves are…
We study completions of Archimedean vector lattices relative to any nonempty set of positively-homogeneous functions on finite-dimensional real vector spaces. Examples of such completions include square mean closed and geometric closed…
We study the arithmetic of complete intersections in projective space over number fields. Our main results include arithmetic Torelli theorems and versions of the Shafarevich conjecture, as proved for curves and abelian varieties by…
The properties of the intersection algebra of two principal monomial ideals in a polynomial ring are investigated in detail. Results are obtained regarding the Hilbert series and the canonical ideal of the intersection algebra using methods…
We consider the conjecture that all artinian height 4 complete intersections of forms of the same degree $d$ have the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP). We translate this problem to one of studying the general hyperplane section of a certain…
The Frobenius manifold structure on the space of rational functions with multiple simple poles is constructed. In particular, the dependence of the Saito-flat coordinates on the flat coordinates of the intersection form is studied. While…
The concept of convex compactness, weaker than the classical notion of compactness, is introduced and discussed. It is shown that a large class of convex subsets of topological vector spaces shares this property and that is can be used in…
We prove that linearizing certain families of polynomial optimization problems leads to new functorial operations in real convex sets. We show that under some conditions these operations can be computed or approximated in ways amenable to…
Let $f:\CN \rightarrow \C $ be a polynomial, which is transversal (or regular) at infinity. Let $\U=\CN\setminus f^{-1}(0)$ be the corresponding affine hypersurface complement. By using the peripheral complex associated to $f$, we give…
We review and present new studies on the relation between the partition functions of integrable lattice models and symmetric polynomials, and its combinatorial representation theory based on the correspondence, including our work. In…
Writing the values of Krawtchouk polynomials as matrices, we consider weighted partial sums along columns. For the general case, we find an identity that, in the symmetric case yields a formula for such partial sums. Complete sums of…
We discuss generalizations of some results on lattice polygons to certain piecewise linear loops which may have a self-intersection but have vertices in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We first prove a formula on the rotation number of a…
We investigate an enriched-categorical approach to a field of discrete mathematics. The main result is a duality theorem between a class of enriched categories (called $\overline{\mathbb{Z}}$- or $\overline{\mathbb{R}}$-categories) and that…
Given a Riemannian manifold M and a hypersurface H in M, it is well known that infinitesimal convexity on a neighborhood of a point in H implies local convexity. We show in this note that the same result holds in a semi-Riemannian manifold.…
In this work we investigate the transfer of fundamental order and completeness properties between truncated Riesz spaces and their unitizations. Specifically, we provide characterizations and equivalences for several notions of…
