We consider random polynomials of the form $H_n(z)=\sum_{j=0}^n\xi_jq_j(z)$ where the $\{\xi_j\}$ are i.i.d non-degenerate complex random variables, and the $\{q_j(z)\}$ are orthonormal polynomials with respect to a compactly supported…

The main goal of this paper is to prove the polystability of the logarithmic tangent sheaf $\mathscr T_X(-D)$ of a log canonical pair $(X,D)$ whose canonical bundle $K_X+D$ is ample, generalizing in a significant way a theorem of Enoki. We…
Let $X\subset \mathbb{P}^r$ be an integral and non-degenerate variety. Let $\sigma _{a,b}(X)\subseteq \mathbb{P}^r$, $(a,b)\in \mathbb{N}^2$, be the join of $a$ copies of $X$ and $b$ copies of the tangential variety of $X$. Using the…
We identify a combinatorial quantity (the alternating sum of the h-vector) defined for any simple polytope as the signature of a toric variety. This quantity was introduced by Charney and Davis in their work, which in particular showed that…
Logarithmic Hilbert and Quot spaces are generalizations of their traditional versions adapted to study pairs and degenerations. The logarithmic Quot spaces of $(X,D)$ parameterize "algebraically transverse" (logarithmically flat) quotient…

We apply a theorem of Gel'fand, Goresky, MacPherson, and Serganova about matroid polytopes to study semistability of partial flags relative to a T-linearized ample line bundle of a flag space F = SL(n)/P where T is a maximal torus in SL(n)…
We show that a weight variety, which is a quotient of a flag variety by the maximal torus, admits a flat degeneration to a toric variety. In particular, we show that the moduli spaces of spatial polygons degenerate to polarized toric…
