Given a generic semidefinite program, specified by matrices with rational entries, each coordinate of its optimal solution is an algebraic number. We study the degree of the minimal polynomials of these algebraic numbers. Geometrically,…
A series of lecture notes on the elementary theory of algebraic numbers, using only knowledge of a first-semester graduate course in algebra (primarily groups and rings). No prerequisite knowledge of fields is required. Based primarily on…
This book gives a thorough introduction to topological data analysis (TDA), the application of algebraic topology to data science. Algebraic topology is traditionally a very specialized field of math, and most mathematicians have never been…
In this article we consider surfaces in the product space $\h^2\times \r$ of the hyperbolic plane $\h^2$ with the real line. The main results are: a description of some geometric properties of minimal graphs; new examples of complete…
This is the text of a series of five lectures given by the author at the "Second Annual Spring Institute on Noncommutative Geometry and Operator Algebras" held at Vanderbilt University in May 2004. It is meant as an overview of recent…
These are the informal notes of two seminars held at the Universita` di Roma "La Sapienza", and at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa in Spring and Autumn 1997. We discuss in detail the content of the parts of Givental's paper dealing…
This is an extended abstract for a talk given at the mini-workshop "Cohomology rings and fundamental groups of hyperplane arrangements, wonderful compactifications, and real toric varieties", held in Oberwolfach, September 30-October 6,…
This is an introduction to rings and fields, written for a quarter-long undergraduate course. It includes the basic properties of ideals, modules, algebras and polynomials, the constructions of ring extensions and finite fields, some…
This lecture notes are an expanded version of the course given at the ERC-School on Geometric Measure Theory and Real Analysis, held in Pisa, September 30th - October 30th 2013. The lectures aim to explain the main steps of a new proof of…
This text is a support for different courses of the master of Mechanics of the University Paris-Saclay. The content of this text is an introduction, for graduate students, to tensor algebra and analysis. Far from being exhaustive, the text…
This Master's thesis presents a study of the basic properties of the s-fractional perimeter and of the regularity theory of the corresponding s-minimal sets. In particular, we give full detailed proofs for all the Theorems contained in the…
Real algebraic geometry adapts the methods and ideas from (complex) algebraic geometry to study the real solutions to systems of polynomial equations and polynomial inequalities. As it is the real solutions to such systems modeling…
This is an expanded version of our work [AN88], 1988, in Russian. We classify del Pezzo surfaces over C with log terminal singularities of index \le 2. By classification, we understand a description of the intersection graph of all…
This is a collection of notes based on lectures given at IIT Madras in September 2019 and at IFT Madrid in November 2019. It is supposed to be a concise (and therefore not comprehensive) and pragmatic course on applied holography and…
This survey is meant to provide an introduction to the fundamental theorem of linear algebra and the theories behind them. Our goal is to give a rigorous introduction to the readers with prior exposure to linear algebra. Specifically, we…
Detailed illustration of the method for calculating the Chow group of a rational surface over a local field [math.AG/0302157 (th.~4)], applied to a certain del Pezzo surface of degree~4. Involves the construction of a regular integral model…
These are notes of the mini-course I gave during the CIMPA summer school at Villa de Leyva, Colombia, in July $2014$. The subject was my joint work with Damien Gayet on the topology of random real hypersurfaces, restricting myself to the…
We address the question of the degree of unirational parameterizations of degree four and degree three del Pezzo surfaces. Specifically we show that degree four del Pezzo surfaces over finite fields admit degree two parameterizations and…
These are lecture notes on the algebraic approach to regular languages. The classical algebraic approach is for finite words; it uses semigroups instead of automata. However, the algebraic approach can be extended to structures beyond…
We classify semi-algebraic surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with isolated singularities up to bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms with respect to the inner distance. In particular, we obtain complete classifications for the Nash surfaces and the complex…
