While the intersection of the Grassmannian Bruhat decompositions for all coordinate flags is an intractable mess, the intersection of only the cyclic shifts of one Bruhat decomposition turns out to have many of the good properties of the…
The Losev-Manin moduli space parametrizes pointed chains of projective lines. In this paper we study a possible generalization to families of pointed degenerate toric varieties. Geometric properties of these families, such as flatness and…
We study variants of the well-known Collatz graph, by considering the action of the 3n+1 function on congruence classes. For moduli equal to powers of 2, these graphs are shown to be isomorphic to binary De Bruijn graphs. Unlike the Collatz…
We study harmonic morphisms of graphs as a natural discrete analogue of holomorphic maps between Riemann surfaces. We formulate a graph-theoretic analogue of the classical Riemann-Hurwitz formula, study the functorial maps on Jacobians and…
We determine the set of supports for the flat family of linear degenerations of flag varieties in terms of Motzkin combinatorics.
Since the end of the XIXth century, we know that each birational map of the complex projective plane is the product of a finite number of quadratic birational maps of the projective plane; this motivates our work which essentially deals…
In the case of gauge theories, which are ruled by an infinite-dimensional invariance group, various choices of antisymmetric bilinear maps on field functionals are indeed available. This paper proves first that, within this broad framework,…
In this work we study B-field transformations of multiplicative Poisson bivectors on a Lie groupoid G. We are concerned with B-fields given by multiplicative closed 2-forms on G. We view Poisson groupoids and their B-field symmetries as…
We enhance an isogeny graph of elliptic curves by incorporating level structures defined by bases of the kernels of iterates of the Verschiebung map. We extend several previous results on isogeny graphs with level structures defined by…
Quiver Grassmannians are varieties parametrizing subrepresentations of a quiver representation. It is observed that certain quiver Grassmannians for type A quivers are isomorphic to the degenerate flag varieties investigated earlier by the…
We show that in type A or C any degenerate flag variety is in fact isomorphic to a Schubert variety in an appropriate partial flag manifold.
The fundamental role of on-shell diagrams in quantum field theory has been recently recognized. On-shell diagrams, or equivalently bipartite graphs, provide a natural bridge connecting gauge theory to powerful mathematical structures such…
A parametrization of a positroid variety $\Pi$ of dimension $d$ is a regular map $(\mathbb{C}^{\times})^{d} \rightarrow \Pi$ which is birational onto a dense subset of $\Pi$. There are several remarkable combinatorial constructions which…
We construct invariants of birational maps with values in the Kontsevich--Tschinkel group and in the truncated Grothendieck groups of varieties. These invariants are morphisms of groupoids and are well-suited to investigating the structure…
We study the geometry of flag manifolds under different embeddings into a product of Grassmannians. We show that differential geometric objects and operations -- tangent vector, metric, normal vector, exponential map, geodesic, parallel…
There are numerous combinatorial objects associated to a Grassmannian permutation $w_\lambda$ that index cells of the totally nonnegative Grassmannian. We study several of these objects and their $q$-analogues in the case of permutations…
In this paper we resolve the complexity of the isomorphism problem on all but finitely many of the graph classes characterized by two forbidden induced subgraphs. To this end we develop new techniques applicable for the structural and…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group acting faithfully and linearly on a vector space $V$. Let $T(V)$ ($S(V)$) be the tensor (symmetric) algebra associated to $V$ which has a natural $\Gamma$ action. We study generalized quadratic relations on…
We define a birational map between labelings of a rectangular poset and its associated trapezoidal poset. This map tropicalizes to a bijection between the plane partitions of these posets of fixed height, giving a new bijective proof of a…
In this paper, we consider affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties $X_w(b)$ and their certain union $X(\mu,b)$ inside the affine flag variety of a reductive group. Several important results in the study of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties have…
