We introduce and develop the theory of UMEL-shellable posets. These are posets equipped with an edge-lexicographical labeling satisfying certain uniformity and monotonicity properties. This framework encompasses classical families of…

Let S be a compact surface of genus >1, and g be a metric on S of constant curvature K\in\{-1,0,1\} with conical singularities of negative singular curvature. When K=1 we add the condition that the lengths of the contractible geodesics are…

We investigate structural properties of the cone of roots of relative Steiner polynomials of convex bodies. We prove that they are closed, monotonous with respect to the dimension, and that they cover the whole upper half-plane, except the…

Our work is motivated by the connection established between Lorentzian polynomials and the Dressian in the seminal work of Br\"and\'en and Huh on Lorentzian polynomials. We analyze this relation for the class of positroids, and are able to…

We study the class of Lorentzian symmetric polynomials and Lorentzian symmetric functions, which are defined to be symmetric functions for which every truncation of variables is Lorentzian. Similar to the space of Lorentzian polynomials, we…

In this paper, we establish an innovative framework in logarithmic Hodge theory for toroidal varieties, introducing weighted toroidal structures and developing a systematic obstruction theory for Hodge classes. Building upon recent advances…

Real-stable, Lorentzian, and log-concave polynomials are well-studied classes of polynomials, and have been powerful tools in resolving several conjectures. We show that the problems of deciding whether a polynomial of fixed degree is real…

The generalized Lax conjecture asserts that each hyperbolicity cone is a linear slice of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices. We prove the conjecture for a multivariate generalization of the matching polynomial. This is further…

The theory of log concave polynomials has recently been developed to study objects and problems in combinatorics and other subfields in mathematics. Particular classes of log concave polynomials called Lorentzian polynomials and…

Arthur Cohn's irreducibility criterion for polynomials with integer coefficients and its generalization connect primes to irreducibles, and integral bases to the variable $x$. As we follow this link, we find that these polynomials are ready…

The celebrated Mason's conjecture states that the sequence of independent set numbers of any matroid is log-concave, and even ultra log-concave. The strong form of Mason's conjecture was independently solved by Anari, Liu, Oveis Gharan and…

If X is a complex projective variety with klt singularities, then the mixed Hodge structures on the first two singular cohomology groups are pure. We describe the pieces of the Hodge decomposition in terms of reflexive differential forms.…

We introduce families of two-parameter multivariate polynomials indexed by pairs of partitions $v,w$ -- biaxial double $(\beta,q)$-Grothendieck polynomials -- which specialize at $q=0$ and $v=1$ to double $\beta$-Grothendieck polynomials…

A finitely generated module over the ring L=Z[t, t^{-1}] of integer Laurent polynomials that has no Z-torsion is determined by a pair of sub-lattices of L^d. Their indices are the absolute values of the leading and trailing coefficients of…

We prove that projective spaces of Lorentzian and real stable polynomials are homeomorphic to closed Euclidean balls. This solves a conjecture of June Huh and the author. The proof utilizes and refines a connection between the symmetric…

Hyperbolic polynomials elegantly encode a rich class of convex cones that includes polyhedral and spectrahedral cones. Hyperbolic polynomials are closed under taking polars and the corresponding cones, the derivative cones, yield…

Let $\theta$ be a root of a monic polynomial $h(x) \in \Z[x]$ of degree $n \geq 2$. We say $h(x)$ is monogenic if it is irreducible over $\Q$ and $\{ 1, \theta, \theta^2, \ldots, \theta^{n-1} \}$ is a basis for the ring $\Z_K$ of integers…
