Let $\mathfrak{g} = \bigoplus_{i \in \mathbb{Z} /m \mathbb{Z}} \mathfrak{g}_i$ be a periodically graded semisimple complex Lie algebra. In this note, we give a uniform proof of the recent result by W. de Graaf and H. V. L\^e that the…
Combining recent results by A. Macinic, S. Papadima and R. Popescu with a spectral sequence and computer aided computations, we determine the monodromy action on $H^1(F,\mathbb{C})$, where $F$ denotes the Milnor fiber of the hyperplane…
J.-P. Roudneff conjectured in 1991 that every arrangement of $n \ge 2d+1\ge 5$ pseudohyperplanes in the real projective space $\mathbb{P}^d$ has at most $\sum_{i=0}^{d-2} \binom{n-1}{i}$ complete cells (i.e., cells bounded by each…
We conjecture that the roots of a degree-n univariate complex polynomial are located in a union of n-1 annuli, each of which is centered at a root of the derivative and whose radii depend on higher derivatives. We prove the conjecture for…
We show that the Bernstein-Sato polynomial (that is, the b-function) of a hyperplane arrangement with a reduced equation is calculable by combining a generalization of Malgrange's formula with the theory of Aomoto complexes due to Esnault,…
Let A be an arrangement of complex hyperplanes. The fundamental group of the complement of A is determined by a braid monodromy homomorphism from a finitely generated free group to the pure braid group. Using the Gassner representation of…
We show a combinatorial formula for a lower bound of the dimension of the non-unipotent monodromy part of the first Milnor cohomology of a hyperplane arrangement satisfying some combinatorial conditions. This gives exactly its dimension if…
We give conceptual proofs of certain basic properties of the arrangement of shifted root hyperplanes associated to a root system and a Weyl group invariant real valued parameter function on the root system. The method is based on the role…
We study the log-rank conjecture from the perspective of point-hyperplane incidence geometry. We formulate the following conjecture: Given a point set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is covered by constant-sized sets of parallel hyperplanes, there…
The main result of this thesis is to show that there are only finitely many integers $n$ such that both $n$ and $d(n)$ are highly composite numbers at the same time, where $d(n)$ is the divisor function. Bertrand's postulate [4] is used…
We consider arrangements of n hyperplanes of codimension one in a real projective space of dimension d. Let us denote by F the maximal possible number f of connected components of the complement in the projective space of dimension d to the…
For a reduced hyperplane arrangement we prove the analytic Twisted Logarithmic Comparison Theorem, subject to mild combinatorial arithmetic conditions on the weights defining the twist. This gives a quasi-isomorphism between the twisted…
A characteristic polynomial is an important invariant in the field of hyperplane arrangement. For the Linial arrangement of any irreducible root system, Postnikov and Stanley conjectured that all roots of the characteristic polynomial have…
Consider moduli schemes of vector bundles over a smooth projective curve endowed with parabolic structures over a marked point. Boden and Hu observed that a slight variation of the weights leads to a desingularisation of the moduli scheme,…
A central question in arrangement theory is to determine whether the characteristic polynomial $\Delta_q$ of the algebraic monodromy acting on the homology group $H_q(F(\mathcal{A}),\mathbb{C})$ of the Milnor fiber of a complex hyperplane…
We define and study the magnitude and magnitude homology of a real hyperplane arrangement by regarding its tope graph as a metric space. We prove several structural results for the magnitude of arrangements, including a symmetry formula,…
We give a criterion for modular extension of rank-4 hypermodular matroids, and prove a weakening of Kantor's conjecture for rank-4 realizable matroids. This proves the sticky matroid conjecture and Kantor's conjecture for realizable…
A continuous map C^d -> C^N is a complex k-regular embedding if any k pairwise distinct points in C^d are mapped by f into k complex linearly independent vectors in C^N. Our central result on complex k-regular embeddings extends results of…
We prove a strengthened form of a conjecture of Sun on a determinant attached to a binary quadratic form. Let $n>3$ and let $c,d\in\Z$. If $n$ is composite, then \[ \det\big[(i^2+cij+dj^2)^{n-2}\big]_{0\leq i,j\leq n-1}\equiv 0\pmod {n^2}…
The graded cellularity of Libedinsky Double Leaves, which form a basis for the endomorphism ring of the Bott_Samelson_Soergel bimodules, allows us to view the Kazhdan_Lusztig polynomials as graded decomposition numbers. Using this point of…
