For a given manifold $M$ we consider the non-linear Grassmann manifold $Gr_n(M)$ of $n$-dimensional submanifolds in $M$. A closed $(n+2)$-form on $M$ gives rise to a closed 2-form on $Gr_n(M)$. If the original form was integral, the 2-form…
Consider a compact Lie group and a closed subgroup. Generalizing a result of Klyachko, we give a necessary and sufficient criterion for a coadjoint orbit of the subgroup to be contained in the projection of a given coadjoint orbit of the…
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 consider the class of Beltrami fields (eigenfields of the curl operator) on three-dimensional Riemannian solid tori: such vector fields arise as steady incompressible inviscid fluids and plasmas. Using techniques from contact geometry,…
We construct a contact form on R^{2n+1}, n at least 2, equal to the standard contact form outside a compact set and defining the standard contact structure on all of R^{2n+1}, which has trapped Reeb orbits, including a torus invariant under…
Given a $G$-toric, folded-symplectic manifold with co-orientable folding hypersurface, we show that its orbit space is naturally a manifold with corners $W$ equipped with a smooth map $\psi: W \to \frak{g}^*$, where $\frak{g}^*$ is the dual…
We give a negative answer to a question by J.M. Landsberg on the nature of normalizations of orbit closures. A counterexample originates from the study of complex, ternary, cubic forms.
The maximally compact representation of a regular orbit is in terms of its action-angle variables. Computing the map between a trajectory's Cartesian coordinates and its action-angle variables is called torus construction. This article…
Much of dynamical algebraic combinatorics focuses on global dynamical systems defined via maps that are compositions of local toggle operators. The second author and Roby studied such maps that result from toggling independent sets of a…
In this paper we investigate the orbit closures for the class of representations of simple algebraic groups associated to various gradings on a simple Lie algebras of type $E_6$, $F_4$ and $G_2$. The methods for classifying the orbits for…
A 2-uniform tiling is an edge-to-edge tiling by regular polygons having $2$ distinct transitivity classes of vertices. There are 20 distinct 2-uniform tilings (these are of $14$ different types) on the plane, and since the plane is the…
We give a constructive proof of the existence of lower dimensional elliptic tori in nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems. In particular we adapt the classical Kolmogorov's normalization algorithm to the case of planetary systems, for which…
Let $S_{g}$ denote the closed orientable surface of genus $g$. In joint work with Huang, the first author constructed exponentially-many (in $g$) mapping class group orbits of pairs of simple closed curves whose complement is a single…
We show that in the neighborhood of the tripling bifurcation of a periodic orbit of a Hamiltonian flow or of a fixed point of an area preserving map, there is generically a bifurcation that creates a ``twistless'' torus. At this…
We show that under a lower Ricci curvature bound and an upper diameter bound, a torus admits a finite-sheeted covering space with volume bounded from below and diameter bounded from above. This partially recovers a result of Kloeckner and…
We consider here square tilings of the plane. By extending the formalism introduced in [3] we build a correspondence between plane maps endowed with an harmonic vector and square tilings satisfying a condition of regularity. In the case of…
Motivated by Buchstaber's and Terzic' work on the complex Grassmannians G(2,4) and G(2,5) we describe the moment map and the orbit space of oriented Grassmannians of planes under the action of a maximal compact torus. Our main tool is the…
We prove a positive combinatorial formula for the equivariant class of an orbit closure in the space of representations of an arbitrary quiver of type $A$. Our formula expresses this class as a sum of products of Schubert polynomials…
This paper is a continuation of arXiv:1201.1102. We investigate the orbit closures for the class of representations of simple algebraic groups associated to various gradings on the simple Lie algebra of type $E_7$. The methods for…
Let $f$ be a piecewise continuous and monotonic map on the interval with at most finitely many discontinuities and turning points. In this paper we study properties about this class of maps and show its main difference from the continuous…
