For a hyperbolic link complement with a triangulation, there are hyperbolicity equations of the triangulation, which guarantee the hyperbolic structure of the link complement. In this paper, we explain that the number of the essential…
The ratio of volume to crossing number of a hyperbolic knot is known to be bounded above by the volume of a regular ideal octahedron, and a similar bound is conjectured for the knot determinant per crossing. We investigate a natural…
We introduce the concepts of max-closedness and numeraires of convex subsets in the nonnegative orthant of the topological vector space of all random variables built over a probability space, equipped with a topology consistent with…
We give a new proof of the fact that the complement of the complexification of a real hyperplane arrangement is homotopy equivalent to the Salvetti complex of the associated oriented matroid. Our proof involves no choices, is relatively…
We give explicit formulas for the Betti numbers, both stable and unstable, of the unordered configuration spaces of an arbitrary surface of finite type.
In [DJL07] it was shown that if A is an affine hyperplane arrangement in C^n, then at most one of the L^2-Betti numbers of its complement is non--zero. We will prove an analogous statement for complements of any algebraic curve in C^2.…
We show that for any degree $d$ hypersurface $Y \subset X$ in a possibly singular projective variety $X \subset \mathbf{P}^N$, the total Betti number of $Y$ is bounded by $3\text{deg}(X)\cdot d^n + C\cdot d^{n-1}$ for some explicit constant…
An exact computation of the persistent Betti numbers of a submanifold $X$ of a Euclidean space is possible only in a theoretical setting. In practical situations, only a finite sample of $X$ is available. We show that, under suitable…
This note considers the maximal positively invariant set for polynomial discrete time dynamics subject to constraints specified by a basic semialgebraic set. The note utilizes a relatively direct, but apparently overlooked, fact stating…
The local equicontinuity of an operator $T:X\rightrightarrows X^{*}$ with proper Fitzpatrick function $\varphi_{T}$ and defined in a barreled locally convex space $X$ has been shown to hold on the algebraic interior of…
We give a numerical characterization of the possible extremal Betti numbers (values as well as positions) of any homogeneous ideal in a polynomial ring over a field.
We exhibit an analogy between the problem of pushing forward measurable sets under measure preserving maps and linear relaxations in combinatorialoptimization. We show how invariance of hyperfiniteness of graphings under local isomorphism…
The freeness of hyperplane arrangements in a three dimensional vector space over finite field is discussed. We prove that if the number of hyperplanes is greater than some bound, then the freeness is determined by the characteristic…
Let $S$ be a polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ of characteristic $0$. A numerical characterization of all possible extremal Betti numbers of any graded submodule of a finitely generated graded free $S$-module is given.
Equivalent conditions that make the normal cone maximal monotone are investigated in the general settings of locally convex spaces. Some consequences such as Bishop Phelps and sum representability results are presented in the last part.
This note is mostly an expository survey, centered on the topology of complements of hyperplane arrangements, their Milnor fibrations, and their boundary structures. An important tool in this study is provided by the degree 1 resonance and…
We present here a variational method for maximizing the bandgap in a one-dimensional system where the potential is subject to given constraints. Two specific examples are studied in detail. In the first, we show that if the potential is…
This paper gives a sharp upper bound for the Betti numbers of a finitely generated multigraded $R$-module, where $R=\Bbbk [x_{1},...,x_{m}]$ is the polynomial ring over a field $\Bbbk$ in $m$ variables. The bound is given in terms of the…
A rank one local system on the complement of a hyperplane arrangement is said to be admissible if it satisfies certain non-positivity condition at every resonant edges. It is known that the cohomology of admissible local system can be…
A conjecture of Denef-Jacobs-Veys relates motivic principal value integrals of multivalued rational top-forms with cohomology support loci of rank one local systems. We give a stronger positive answer to this conjecture for hyperplane…
