We explain how to determine equations describing the ramification of an outer simple linear projection of a projective scheme in a way suited for explicit computations.
Graph polynomials are polynomials assigned to graphs. Interestingly, they also arise in many areas outside graph theory as well. Many properties of graph polynomials have been widely studied. In this paper, we survey some results on the…
We consider the family of cubic polynomials with a simple parabolic fixed point. We prove that the boundary of the immediate basin of attraction of the parabolic point is a Jordan curve and give a description of the dynamics.
This note wants to explain how to obtain meaningful pictures of (possibly high-dimensional) convex polytopes, triangulated manifolds, and other objects from the realm of geometric combinatorics such as tight spans of finite metric spaces…
In this note we investigate the connection between polylogarithms on curves and abelian schemes. The main result shows that the polylogarithm on the abelian scheme can be obtained as the push-forward of the polylogarithm on a suitable…

Closed form solutions for the computation of the solid angle from polygonal cross-sections are well known, however similar formulae for computation of projected solid angle are not generally available. Formulae for computing the projected…

Let $A$ be a closed affine subspace and let $B$ be a hyperplane in a Hilbert space. Suppose we are given their associated nearest point mappings $P_A$ and $P_B$, respectively. We present a formula for the projection onto their intersection…
An efficient algorithm to enumerate the vertices of a two-dimensional (2D) projection of a polytope, is presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm uses the support function of the polytope to be projected and enumerated for vertices.…
The Euclidean projection onto a convex set is an important problem that arises in numerous constrained optimization tasks. Unfortunately, in many cases, computing projections is computationally demanding. In this work, we focus on…
Given a real cubic function $f(x)$ with three roots, take an equilateral triangle $ABC$, the projections of which vertices are the roots of $f(x)$. There is a folklore fact that the vertical lines through the extrema of $f(x)$ are tangent…
In analogy to the equidistribution of preimages of a prescribed point by the iterates of a polynomial map in the complex plane towards the equilibrium measure, we show here the equidistribution of points for which the derivative of the n-th…
This paper is aimed at presenting a systematic survey of the existing now different formulations for the problem of projection of the origin of the Euclidean space onto the convex polyhedron (PPOCP). In the present paper, there are…

A general method of obtaining linear differential equations having polynomial solutions is proposed. The method is based on an equivalence of the spectral problem for an element of the universal enveloping algebra of some Lie algebra in the…
The purpose of the present article is to examine the essence of what has commonlybeen described as a "projective line", but which is here named a "meridian". This shall be done in several papers: this first paper devoted to the meridian…
We give a new proof of the formula expressing the area of the triangle whose vertices are the projections of an arbitrary point in the plane onto the sides of a given triangle, in terms of the geometry of the given triangle and the location…
We compute the dynamical degrees of certain compositions of reflections in points on a smooth cubic fourfold. Our interest in these computations stems from the irrationality problem for cubic fourfolds. Namely, we hope that they will…
A formula expressing a point of order 8 on an elliptic curve, in terms of the roots of the associated cubic polynomial, is given. Doubling such a point yields a point of order 4 distinct from the well-known points of order 4 given in…
