Let ${\cal L}$ be a variation of Hodge structures on the complement $X^{*}$ of a normal crossing divisor (NCD) $ Y$ in a smooth analytic variety $X$ and let $ j: X^{*} = X - Y \to X $ denotes the open embedding. The purpose of this paper is…
We study a generalization of the classical correspondence between homogeneous quadratic polynomials, quadratic forms, and symmetric/alternating bilinear forms to forms in $n$ variables. The main tool is combinatorial polarization, and the…

Volume polynomials form a distinguished class of log-concave polynomials with remarkable analytic and combinatorial properties. I will survey realization problems related to them, review fundamental inequalities they satisfy, and discuss…
Recently, several striking advances have taken place regarding the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in finite fields of small characteristic, despite progress having remained essentially static for nearly thirty years, with the best known…
This paper is the first of a series of introductory papers on the fascinating world of Soergel bimodules. It is combinatorial in nature and should be accessible to a broad audience. The objective of this paper is to help the reader feel…
These are notes from a multi-year learning seminar on the algebraic approach to Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). The main topics covered are the theory of algebraic structures with few subpowers, the theory of absorbing subalgebras…
There is a two-component log-gas system with Boltzmann factor which provides an interpolation between the eigenvalue PDF for $\beta = 1$ and $\beta = 4$ invariant random matrix ensembles. The solvability of this log-gas system relies on the…
A survey is given on mathematical structures which emerge in multi-loop Feynman diagrams. These are multiply nested sums, and, associated to them by an inverse Mellin transform, specific iterated integrals. Both classes lead to sets of…
The Melnikov method is applied to periodically perturbed open systems modeled by an inverse--square--law attraction center plus a quadrupolelike term. A compactification approach that regularizes periodic orbits at infinity is introduced.…
We study the algebraic dynamical systems generated by triangular systems of rational functions and estimate the height growth of iterations generated by such systems. Further, using a result on the reduction modulo primes of systems of…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. For a log curve $X/k^{\times}$ over the standard log point, we define (algebraically) a combinatorial monodromy operator on its log-de Rham cohomology group. The invariant part…
The present paper is a continuation of [5], where Lie bialgebra structures on g[u] were studied. These structures fall into different classes labelled by the vertices of the extended Dynkin diagram of g. In [5] the Lie bialgebras…
Based on a variant of the Kontsevich $1\frac{1}{2}$-logarithm function, we construct a regulator in characteristic $p.$ This also leads to an infinitesimal invariant of certain cycles in characteristic $p.$
Cycle polytopes of matroids have been introduced in combinatorial optimization as a generalization of important classes of polyhedral objects like cut polytopes and Eulerian subgraph polytopes associated to graphs. Here we start an…
This thesis establishes a geometric approach to the de Rham realization of the polylogarithm. As a central result we construct the logarithm sheaves of rational abelian schemes in terms of the birigidified Poincar\'e bundle with universal…
In Lett. Math. Phys. 114, 54 (2024) and 115, 70 (2025), the author introduces what is presented as a novel method for determining whether a sequence of orthogonal polynomials is "classical", based solely on its initial recurrence…
We construct the (enhanced Rogers) dilogarithm function from the spin Chern-Simons invariant of C*-connections. This leads to geometric proofs of basic dilogarithm identities and a geometric context for other properties, such as the…
We give a complete characterization of polynomials in two complex variables that are cyclic with respect to the coordinate shifts acting on Dirichlet-type spaces in the bidisk, which include the Hardy space and the Dirichlet space of the…
The interlace polynomial q was introduced by Arratia, Bollobas, and Sorkin. It encodes many properties of the orbit of a graph under edge local complementation (ELC). The interlace polynomial Q, introduced by Aigner and van der Holst,…
