We construct projective toroidal compactifications for integral models of Shimura varieties of Hodge type. We also construct integral models of the minimal (Satake-Baily-Borel) compactification. Our results essentially reduce the problem to…
We study the relationship between line bundles on tropical compactifications of a very affine variety $Y$ and toric b-divisors on the associated tropical variety ${\rm Trop}(Y)$. By focusing on numerical equivalence classes, we construct a…
For a linear algebraic group G over the field of rational numbers, we consider the period domains D classifying G-mixed Hodge structures, and construct the extended period domains as toroidal partial compactifications. We give an…
A Laman graph $G$ is a minimally rigid graph in dimension two, and its realization number is its number of distinct embeddings with fixed generic edge lengths. While conjectured to grow exponentially in the number of vertices of $G$, the…
We introduce the notion of tropicalization for Poisson structures on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with coefficients in Laurent polynomials. To such a Poisson structure we associate a polyhedral cone and a constant Poisson bracket on this cone. There is a…
In the present paper, we investigate the question if the skeleton of a Mumford curve of genus two can be tropicalized faithfully in dimension three, i.e. if there exists an embedding of the curve in projective three space such that the…
Given the tropicalization of a complex subvariety of the torus, we define a morphism between the tropical cohomology and the rational cohomology of their respective tropical compactifications. We say that the subvariety of the torus is…
We construct a compactification of the Bruhat-Tits building associated to the group PGL(V) by attaching all the Bruhat-Tits buildings of PGL(W) for non-trivial subspaces W of V as a boundary.
We express the reduction types of Picard curves in terms of tropical invariants associated to binary quintics. We also give a general framework for tropical invariants associated to group actions on arbitrary varieties. The problem of…
String compactifications with T-duality twists are revisited and the gauge algebra of the dimensionally reduced theories calculated. These reductions can be viewed as string theory on T-fold backgrounds, and can be formulated in a `doubled…
Let GF denote the rational points of a semisimple group G over a non-archimedean local field F, with Bruhat-Tits building X. This paper contains five main results. We prove a convergence theorem for sequences of parahoric subgroups of GF in…
Let $X$ be a smooth geometrically connected projective curve of genus two over a complete non-archimedean field $K$. For discretely valued $K$, the first main theorem in \cite{liu} gives a set of criteria on the Igusa invariants of the…
Many important problems in extremal combinatorics can be stated as certifying polynomial inequalities in graph homomorphism numbers, and in particular, many ask to certify pure binomial inequalities. For a fixed collection of graphs…
We give an affirmative answer to a conjecture proposed by Tevelev in characteristic 0 case: any variety contains a sch\"on very affine open subvariety. Also we show that any fan supported on the tropicalization of a sch\"on very affine…
The possibility of extending operations of topological and semitopological algebras to their Stone-\v{C}ech compactification and factorization of continuous functions through homomorphisms to metrizable algebras are investigated. Most…
This article is the second installment in a series on the Berkovich ramification locus for nonconstant rational functions f: P^1 -> P^1. Here we show the ramification locus of f is contained in a strong tubular neighborhood of finite radius…
We use Drinfeld's relative compactifications and the Tannakian viewpoint on principal bundles to construct the Harder-Narasimhan stratification of the moduli stack Bun_G of G-bundles on an algebraic curve in arbitrary characteristic,…
In this article we define a natural tropicalization procedure for closed subsets of log-regular varieties in the case of constant coefficients and study its basic properties. This framework allows us to generalize some of Tevelev's results…
Given a smooth curve with weighted marked points, the Abel-Jacboi map produces a line bundle on the curve. This map fails to extend to the full boundary of the moduli space of stable pointed curves. Using logarithmic and tropical geometry,…
Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb{C}$ and $G$ be an algebraic group acting on $X$ whose action is closed. J. Poineau defined a compactification $X^\urcorner$ of $X(\mathbb{C})$ by using hybrid Berkovich spaces. We will focus on…
