The strong continuity principle reads "every pointwise continuous function from a complete separable metric space to a metric space is uniformly continuous near each compact image." We show that this principle is equivalent to the fan…
Let $X$ be a complete toric variety. We give a criterion to decide whether $X$ decomposes as a product of complete toric varieties by analyzing the $1$-skeleton of its fan. More precisely, we prove that any direct-sum decomposition of the…
We review the theory of combinatorial intersection cohomology of fans developed by Barthel-Brasselet-Fieseler-Kaup, Bressler-Lunts, and Karu. This theory gives a substitute for the intersection cohomology of toric varieties which has all…
We describe the Lelek fan, a smooth fan whose set of end-points is dense, and the Poulsen simplex, a Choquet simplex whose set of extreme points is dense, as Fra\"{i}ss\'e limits in certain natural categories of embeddings and projections.…
We present two algorithms determining all the complete and simplicial fans admitting a fixed non-degenerate set of vectors $V$ as generators of their 1-skeleton. The interplay of the two algorithms allows us to discerning if the associated…
A continuum is hereditarily equivalent if it is homeomorphic to each of its non-degenerate sub-continua. We show in this paper that the arc and the pseudo-arc are the only non-degenerate hereditarily equivalent plane continua.
A topological drawing of a graph is fan-planar if for each edge $e$ the edges crossing $e$ form a star and no endpoint of $e$ is enclosed by $e$ and its crossing edges. A fan-planar graph is a graph admitting such a drawing. Equivalently,…
Scattering diagrams arose in the context of mirror symmetry, Donaldson-Thomas theory, and integrable systems. We show that a consistent scattering diagram with minimal support cuts the ambient space into a complete fan. A special class of…
A planar portrait of a manifold is the pair of the image and the critical values of the manifold through a stable map into the plane. It can be considerd a geometric representation of the manifold drawn in the plane. The cusped fan is its…
We show that a natural quotient of the projective Fraisse limit of a family that consists of finite rooted trees is the Lelek fan. Using this construction, we study properties of the Lelek fan and of its homeomorphism group. We show that…
Suppose that $h$ is an instance of the Gaussian free field (GFF) on a simply connected domain $D \subseteq {\mathbf C}$ and $x,y \in \partial D$ are distinct. Fix $\kappa \in (0,4)$ and for each $\theta \in {\mathbf R}$ let $\eta_\theta$ be…
A famous construction of Gelfand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky associates to each finite point configuration $A \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ a polyhedral fan, which stratifies the space of weight vectors by the combinatorial types of regular…
We study the category of KM fans - a "stacky" generalization of the category of fans considered in toric geometry - and its various realization functors to "geometric" categories. The "purest" such realization takes the form of a functor…
Edge bundling is an important concept heavily used for graph visualization purposes. To enable the comparison with other established near-planarity models in graph drawing, we formulate a new edge-bundling model which is inspired by the…
Let $\phi(n,H)$ be the largest integer such that, for all graphs $G$ on $n$ vertices, the edge set $E(G)$ can be partitioned into at most $\phi(n, H)$ parts, of which every part either is a single edge or forms a graph isomorphic to $H$.…
We describe the structure of simplicial locally convex fans associated to even-dimensional complete toric varieties with signature 0. They belong to the set of such toric varieties whose even degree Betti numbers yield a top gamma vector…
The Groebner fan of an ideal $I\subset k[x_1,...,x_n]$, defined by Mora and Robbiano, is a complex of polyhedral cones in $R^n$. The maximal cones of the fan are in bijection with the distinct monomial initial ideals of $I$ as the term…
We investigate the equivariant intersection cohomology of a toric variety. Considering the defining fan of the variety as a finite topological space with the subfans being the open sets (that corresponds to the "toric" topology given by the…
We construct a family of uncountably many pairwise non-homeomorphic smooth fans that admit transitive homeomorphisms. In addition, we show that the star of Cantor fans admits a transitive homeomorphism.
We formulate a combinatorial version of the Intersection Hodge Conjecture for projective toric varieties. The conjecture asserts that the subspace of rational Hodge classes in the intersection cohomology $IH^*(X_\Sigma)$ is generated by the…
