The multivariate integer Chebyshev problem is to find polynomials with integer coefficients that minimize the supremum norm over a compact set in $\C^d.$ We study this problem on general sets, but devote special attention to product sets…
We continue the study of counting complexity begun in [Buergisser, Cucker 04] and [Buergisser, Cucker, Lotz 05] by proving upper and lower bounds on the complexity of computing the Hilbert polynomial of a homogeneous ideal. We show that the…
Complex geometry represents a fundamental ingredient in the formulation of the Dirac equation by the Clifford algebra. The choice of appropriate complex geometries is strictly related to the geometric interpretation of the complex imaginary…
We develop a theory for the existence of perfect matchings in hypergraphs under quite general conditions. Informally speaking, the obstructions to perfect matchings are geometric, and are of two distinct types: 'space barriers' from convex…
We provide a suitable axiomatic framework for differential cohomology in the relative case and we deduce the corresponding long exact sequences. We also construct the relative version of the generalized Cheeger-Simons characters and we…
The Ehrhard-Borell inequality is a far-reaching refinement of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality that captures the sharp convexity and isoperimetric properties of Gaussian measures. Unlike in the classical Brunn-Minkowski theory, the…
For the multiple differential algebra of iterated differential forms (see math.DG/0605113 and math.DG/0609287) on a diffiety (O,C) an analogue of C-spectral sequence is constructed. The first term of it is naturally interpreted as the…
In this paper we focus on various aspects of singular complex plane curves, mostly in the context of their homological properties and the associated combinatorial structures. We formulate some challenging open problems that can point to new…
Using an inverse system of metric graphs as in: J. Cheeger and B. Kleiner, "Inverse limit spaces satisfying a Poincar\'e inequality", we provide a simple example of a metric space $X$ that admits Poincar\'e inequalities for a continuum of…
In this paper we prove discrete Poincar\'e inequalities that are uniform in the mesh size for the discrete de Rham complex of differential forms developed in [Bonaldi, Di Pietro, Droniou, and Hu, An exterior calculus framework for polytopal…
Using Langer's variation on the Bogomolov-Miyaoka-Yau inequality \cite[Theorem 0.1]{Langer} we provide some Hirzebruch-type inequalities for curve arrangements in the complex projective plane.
We introduce an axiomatic theory of spherical diagrams as a tool to study certain combinatorial properties of polyhedra in $\mathbb R^3$, which are of central interest in the context of Art Gallery problems for polyhedra and other…
A well-known family of determinantal inequalities for mixed volumes of convex bodies were derived by Shephard from the Alexandrov-Fenchel inequality. The classic monograph Geometric Inequalities by Burago and Zalgaller states a conjecture…
We consider and discretize a mixed formulation for linear elasticity with weakly imposed symmetry in two and three dimensions. Whereas existing methods mainly deal with simplicial or polygonal meshes, we take advantage of isogeometric…
In the computation of the intersection cohomology of Shimura varieties, or of the $L^2$ cohomology of equal rank locally symmetric spaces, combinatorial identities involving averaged discrete series characters of real reductive groups play…
This paper is concerned with the derivation and properties of differential complexes arising from a variety of problems in differential equations, with applications in continuum mechanics, relativity, and other fields. We present a…
Sharp Moser-Trudinger type inequalities and their extremal functions play an important role in studying nonlinear PDEs and geometry. We establish a new sharp Moser-Trudinger type inequality in the upper half space in two dimensions and…
This paper makes some preliminary observations towards an extension of current work on graphs defined on groups to simplicial complexes. I define a variety of simplicial complexes on a group which are preserved by automorphisms of the…
We prove a relative isoperimetric inequality in the plane, when the perimeter is defined with respect to a convex, positively homogeneous function of degree one, and characterize the minimizers.
We give an extension of Cheeger's deformation techniques for smooth Lie group actions on manifolds to the setting of singular Riemannian foliations induced by Lie groupoids actions. We give an explicit description of the sectional curvature…
