The Grassmannian, which is the manifold of all $k$-dimensional subspaces in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, was decomposed through three equivalent methods connecting combinatorial geometries, Schubert cells and convex polyhedra by…
We classify one-element extensions of a hyperplane arrangement by the induced adjoint arrangement. Based on the classification, several kinds of combinatorial invariants including Whitney polynomials, characteristic polynomials, Whitney…
It is known that the so-called monadic decomposition, applied to the adjunction connecting the category of bialgebras to the category of vector spaces via the tensor and the primitive functors, returns the usual adjunction between…
A complex hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ is said to be decomposable if there are no elements in the degree 3 part of its holonomy Lie algebra besides those coming from the rank 2 flats. When this purely combinatorial condition is…
A discriminantal hyperplane arrangement B(n,k,A) is constructed from a given (generic) hyperplane arrangement A, which is classified as either very generic or non-very generic depending on the combinatorial structure of B(n,k,A). In…
The k-th Fitting ideal of the Alexander invariant B of an arrangement A of n complex hyperplanes defines a characteristic subvariety, V_k(A), of the complex algebraic n-torus. In the combinatorially determined case where B decomposes as a…
The relationship between associative composition algebras of dimensions 2 and 4 within the context of homogeneous spaces, with a particular focus on Hamiltonian quaternions, is explored. In the special case of Hamiltonian quaternions, the…
The fundamental group of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement in a complex vector space is an important topological invariant. The third rank of successive quotients in the lower central series of the fundamental group was called Falk…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an affine hyperplane arrangement, $L(\mathcal{A})$ its intersection poset, and $\chi_{\mathcal{A}}(t)$ its characteristic polynomial. This paper aims to propose combinatorial structures for the factorization of…
Delta-matroids are "type B" generalizations of matroids in the same way that maximal orthogonal Grassmannians are generalizations of Grassmannians. A delta-matroid analogue of the Tutte polynomial of a matroid is the interlace polynomial.…
Denote by $M_n(K)$ the algebra of $n$ by $n$ matrices with entries in the field $K$. A theorem of Albert and Muckenhoupt states that every trace zero matrix of $M_n(K)$ can be expressed as $AB-BA$ for some pair $(A,B)$ of matrices of…
For a real affine hyperplane arrangement, we define an integer intersection matrix with a natural $q$-deformation related to the intersections of bounded chambers of the arrangement. By connecting the integer matrix to a bilinear form of…
The complement of an arrangement A of a finite number of affine hyperplanes in complex n-space has the structure of a poset of spaces indexed by the intersection poset, L(A). The space corresponding to G in L(A) is homotopy equivalent to…
We will start from the beginning and define a matroid and its Orlik-Solomon algebra and holonomy Lie algebra, but first we give some background from topology and cohomology. A (central) hyperplane arrangement is a finite number of subspaces…
Given a nonnegative integer $m$ and a finite collection ${\mathcal A}$ of linear forms on ${\mathbb Q}^d$, the arrangement of affine hyperplanes in ${\mathbb Q}^d$ defined by the equations $\alpha(x) = k$ for $\alpha \in {\mathcal A}$ and…
We generalize the classical notion of adjoint of a linear operator and the Aron-Schottenloher notion of adjoint of a homogeneous polynomial. The general notion is shown to enjoy several properties enjoyed by the classical ones, nevertheless…
We study the packing dimension of unions of subsets of $k$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ using tools from algorithmic information theory, obtaining an analog of a result of H\'era and a mild generalization of a recent result of Fraser. Along the…
In 1989 Manin and Schechtman defined the discriminantal arrangement $\mathcal{B}(n, k,\mathcal{A})$ associated to a generic arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ of $n$ hyperplanes in a $k$-dimensional space. An equivalent notion was already introduced…
Given a hyperplane arrangement in a complex vector space of dimension n, there is a natural associated arrangement of codimension k subspaces in a complex vector space of dimension k*n. Topological invariants of the complement of this…
Join-distributive lattices are finite, meet-semidistributive, and semimodular lattices. They are the same as Dilworth's lattices in 1940, and many alternative definitions and equivalent concepts have been discovered or rediscovered since…
