We study an irreducible real-analytic germ of an $n$-dimensional variety in $n$ dimensional complex space. Assuming that the variety is Segre nondegenerate we define an averaging operator that generalizes the Moser--Webster involution. This…
We survey results in algebraic complexity theory, focusing on matrix multiplication. Our goals are (i.) to show how open questions in algebraic complexity theory are naturally posed as questions in geometry and representation theory, (ii.)…
We give an algorithm for computing Segre classes of subschemes of arbitrary projective varieties by computing degrees of a sequence of linear projections. Based on the fact that Segre classes of projective varieties commute with…

Motivated by the study of the secant variety of the Segre-Veronese variety we propose a general framework to analyze properties of the secant varieties of toric embeddings of affine spaces defined by simplicial complexes. We prove that…
We prove that the set of Segre-degenerate points of a real-analytic subvariety $X$ in ${\mathbb{C}}^n$ is a closed semianalytic set. It is a subvariety if $X$ is coherent. More precisely, the set of points where the germ of the Segre…
Using the classical S.Lie method we obtain a complete description of infinitesimal symmetries of a holomorphic PDE system defining the Segre family of a real analytic hypersurface. This gives a new proof of some well known results of CR…
We have developed in the past several algorithms with intrinsic complexity bounds for the problem of point finding in real algebraic varieties. Our aim here is to give a comprehensive presentation of the geometrical tools which are…
We introduce a new family of invariants of real algebraic sets defined in terms of the topology of their complexifications and compute some of these invariants for spheres. This allows us to completely classify topological isomorphism…
The main question we target is the following: If one fixes a topological type of a complex normal surface singularity then what are the possible analytic types supported by it, and/or, what are the possible values of the geometric genus? We…
We consider a subanalytic subset A of a complex analytic manifold M (when M is viewed as a real manifold) and formulate conditions under which A is a complex analytic subset of M.
In this paper we present an effective method for linearizing rational varieties of codimension at least two under Cremona transformations, starting from a given parametrization. Using these linearizing Cremonas, we simplify the equations of…
We investigate the Ulrich complexity of certain examples of Brauer--Severi varieties, twisted flags and involution varieties and establish lower and upper bounds. Furthermore, we relate Ulrich complexity to the categorical representability…

We show that if the Segre varieties of a strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface in $\mathbb{C}^2$ are extremal discs for the Kobayashi metric, then that hypersurface has to be locally spherical. In particular, this gives yet another…
We describe new algorithms to compute Whitney stratifications of real algebraic varieties. Using either conormal or polar techniques, these algorithms stratify a complexification of a given real variety. We then show that the resulting…
