An ellipsoid is the image of a ball under an affine transformation. If this affine transformation is over the complex numbers, we refer to it as a complex ellipsoid. Characterizations of real ellipsoids have received much attention over the…
We propose an abstract definition of convex spaces as sets where one can take convex combinations in a consistent way. A priori, a convex space is an algebra over a finitary version of the Giry monad. We identify the corresponding Lawvere…
Convexity and convex functions play an important role in theoretical physics. To initiate a study of the possible uses of convex functions in General Relativity, we discuss the consequences of a spacetime $(M,g_{\mu \nu})$ or an initial…

Distance Geometry is based on the inverse problem that asks to find the positions of points, in a Euclidean space of given dimension, that are compatible with a given set of distances. We briefly introduce the field, and discuss some open…
The well-known Bernstein-Kushnirenko theorem from the theory of Newton polyhedra relates algebraic geometry and the theory of mixed volumes. Recently the authors have found a far-reaching generalization of this theorem to generic systems of…
We investigate the regularity of the marginals onto hyperplanes for sets of finite perimeter. We prove, in particular, that if a set of finite perimeter has log-concave marginals onto a.e. hyperplane then the set is convex.
We introduce a notion of probabilistic convexity and generalize some classical globalization theorems in Alexandrov geometry. A weighted Alexandrov's lemma is developed as a basic tool.
We study the theory specialisations in algebraic geometry from a model theoretic viewpoint. In particular we investigate universality and maximality of specialisations in algebraic geometry.
Variational analysis presents a unified theory encompassing in particular both smoothness and convexity. In a Euclidean space, convex sets and smooth manifolds both have straightforward local geometry. However, in the most basic hybrid case…
In this paper, we give a purely cohomological interpretation of the extension problem for associative algebras; that is the problem of extending an associative algebra by another associative algebra. We then give a similar interpretation of…
The article is devoted to affine and wrap algebras over quaternions and octonions. Residues of functions of quaternion and octonion variables are studied. They are used for construction of such algebras. Their structure is investigated.
We review some basic results of convex analysis and geometry in $\mathbb{R}^n$ in the context of formulating a differential equation to track the distance between an observer flying outside a convex set $K$ and $K$ itself.
A simple theory of the covariant derivatives, deformed derivatives and relative covariant derivatives of multivector and multiform fields is presented using algebraic and analytical tools developed in previous papers.
The embeddings of complex plane projective curves in the plane are a cornerstone of the topological study of algebraic varieties. In this work, we deal with the local and global aspects of these embeddings, with a special attention to its…
In this paper we introduce an enhanced notion of extremal systems for sets in locally convex topological vector spaces and obtain efficient conditions for set extremality in the convex case. Then we apply this machinery to deriving new…
We formulate a number of new results in Algebraic Geometry and outline their derivation from Theorem 2.12 which belongs to Algebraic Combinatorics.
We introduce the notion of one-sided mapping cones of positive linear maps between matrix algebras. These are convex cones of maps that are invariant under compositions by completely positive maps from either the left or right side. The…
