We study, in a global uniform manner, the quotient of the ring of polynomials in l sets of n variables, by the ideal generated by diagonal quasi-invariant polynomials for general permutation groups W=G(r,n). We show that, for each such…

Let the special linear group $G := SL_{2}$ act regularly on a $Q$-factorial variety $X$. Consider a maximal torus $T \subset G$ and its normalizer $N \subset G$. We prove: If $U \subset X$ is a maximal open $N$-invariant subset admitting a…
The Links--Gould invariant $\mathrm{LG}(L ; t_0, t_1)$ of a link $L$ is a two-variable quantum generalization of the Alexander--Conway polynomial $\Delta_L(t)$ and has been shown to share some of its most geometric features in several…
We compute the rational Chow class of the locus of genus 2 curves admitting a d-to-1 map to a genus 1 curve, recovering a result of Faber-Pagani when d=2. The answer exhibits quasi-modularity properties similar to those in the Gromov-Witten…
We show that the categories of smooth ${\rm SL}_2({\mathbb Q}_p)$-representations (resp. ${\rm GL}_2({\mathbb Q}_p)$-representations) of level $1$ on $p$-torsion modules are equivalent with certain explicitly described equivariant…
In this paper, we compute the E-polynomials of the $PGL(2,\mathbb{C})$-character varieties associated to surfaces of genus $g$ with one puncture, for any holonomy around it, and compare it with its Langlands dual case, $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$.…
We describe sequences of blowups of $\overline{M}_{0,5} \times \overline{M}_{0,5}$ and $\mathbf{P}^2 \times \mathbf{P}^2$ yielding a small resolution of the stable pair compactification $\overline{M}(3,6)$ of the moduli space $M(3,6)$ of…
We give positive combinatorial descriptions of Schubert structure constants $c_{u,v}^w$ for the full flag variety in type $A_{n-1}$ when $u$ and $v$ form what we refer to as a "$(p,q)$-pair" ($p+q=n$). The key observation is that a certain…
Let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$, $V$ a finite-dimensional $\Bbbk$-vector-space, and $G$ a finite $p$-group acting $\Bbbk$-linearly on $V$. Let $S = \Sym V^*$. We show that $S^G$ is a polynomial ring if and only if the…
Given an action of the one-dimensional torus on a projective variety, the associated Chow quotient arises as a natural parameter space of invariant $1$-cycles, which dominates the GIT quotients of the variety. In this paper we explore the…
Artinian quotients R of the local ring Q = k[[x,y,z]] are classified by multiplicative structures on A = Tor_Q^*(R,k); in particular, R is Gorenstein if and only if A is a Poincare duality algebra while R is Golod if and only if all…
Let $X$ be a projective normal toric variety and $T_0$ a rank one subtorus of the defining torus of $X$. We show that the normalization of the Chow quotient $X//T_0$, in the sense of Kapranov-Sturmfels-Zelevinsky, coarsely represents the…
For $n\leq 4$, we compute the indecomposible higher Chow groups $\overline{\operatorname{CH}}(\mathcal{M}_{1,n},1)$ with integer coefficients. As an application, we give new proofs of presentations of the integral Chow rings…

We derive Glynn's formula from Ryser's formula for the permanent. We further establish via an orbital argument that Glynn's formula yields an optimal row-homogeneous Chow-decomposition of the permanent. We introduce a method for…
