Operators on the ring of algebraically constructible functions are used to compute local obstructions for a four-dimensional semialgebraic set to be homeomorphic to a real algebraic set. The link operator and arithmetic operators yield…
Algebraically constructible functions connect real algebra with the topology of algebraic sets. In this survey we present some history, definitions, properties, and algebraic characterizations of algebraically constructible functions, and a…
On a smooth manifold M, the Kashiwara index formula expresses the weighted Euler characteristic of a constructible function in terms of its characteristic cycle. We generalize this formula to the case when M is a smooth orbifold, answering…
We revisit Akbulut and King's first example of a compact semialgebraic set which satisfies Sullivan's local Euler characteristic condition, but which is not homeomorphic to an algebraic set. A nontrivial obstruction is computed using the…
We show that on real algebraic sets algebraically constructible functions coincide with the finite sums of signs of polynomials. Then we give some applications.
We provide a toolbox of extension, gluing, and assembly techniques for factorization algebras. Using these tools, we fill various gaps in the literature on factorization algebras on stratified manifolds, the main one being that…
Let $X$ be a variety over a complete nontrivially valued field $K$. We construct an algebraizable formal model for the analytification of $X$ in the case $X$ admits a closed embedding into a toric variety. By algebraizable we mean that the…
We construct a topology on a given algebraically closed field with a distinguished subfield which is also algebraically closed. This topology is finer than Zariski topology and it captures the sets definable in the pair of algebraically…
We present some general theorems about operator algebras that are algebras of functions on sets, including theories of local algebras, residually finite dimensional operator algebras and algebras that can be represented as the scalar…
Alesker's theory of generalized valuations unifies smooth measures and constructible functions on real analytic manifolds, extending classical operations on functions and measures. Alesker showed that these operations agree with the…
We construct uncountably generated algebras inside the following sets of special functions: Sierpi\'nski-Zygmund functions, perfectly everywhere surjective functions and nowhere continuous Darboux functions. All conclusions obtained in this…
We investigate Grothendieck rings appearing in real geometry, notably for arc-symmetric sets, and focus on the relative case in analogy with the properties of the ring of algebraically constructible functions defined by McCrory and…
computable functions are defined by abstract finite deterministic algorithms on many-sorted algebras. We show that there exist finite universal algebraic specifications that specify uniquely (up to isomorphism) (i) all abstract computable…
For a smooth morphism $f: X \longrightarrow \Sigma$ of real analytic manifolds and an $\mathbb{R}$-constructible sheaf $F$ on $X$ satisfying some condition, we define a family of Lagrangian cycles parameterized by $\Sigma$ that we call the…
This paper develops the geometry of locally bounded rational functions on non-singular real algebraic varieties. First various basic geometric and algebraic results regarding these functions are established in any dimension, culminating…
We employ the notions of `sequential function' and `interrogation' (dialogue) in order to define new partial combinatory algebra structures on sets of functions. These structures are analyzed using J. Longley's preorder-enriched category of…
Cost functions provide a framework for constructions of sets Turing below the halting problem that are close to computable. We carry out a systematic study of cost functions. We relate their algebraic properties to their expressive…
Clifford algebras are important structures in Geometric Algebra and Quantum Mechanics. They have allowed a formalization of the primitive operators in Quantum Theory. The algebras are built over vector spaces with dimension a power of 2…
In this paper we show that if $(X,\mathcal{A})$ is a measurable space and if $Y$ is a topological model of a Lawvere theory $\mathcal{T}$ equipped with $\mathcal{B}$ the Borel $\sigma$-algebra on $Y$, then the set of…
The notion of constructible functions in the setting of tame real geometry has been introduced by Cluckers and Dan Miller in their work on parametric integration of globally subanalytic functions. A function on a globally subanalytic set is…
