For a graph $G$, Bayer-Denker-Milutinovi\'c-Rowlands-Sundaram-Xue study in \cite{B-D-M-R-S-X} a new graph complex $\Delta_k^t(G)$, namely the simplicial complex with facets that are complements to independent sets of size $k$ in $G$. They…
A number of spectrum constructions have been devised to extract topological spaces from algebraic data. Prominent examples include the Zariski spectrum of a commutative ring, the Stone spectrum of a bounded distributive lattice, the Gelfand…
A local Riemann-Hilbert correspondence for tame meromorphic connections on a curve compatible with a parahoric level structure will be established. Special cases include logarithmic connections on G-bundles and on parabolic G-bundles, where…
Consider a rational projective plane curve C parameterized by three homogeneous forms h1,h2,h3 of the same degree d in the polynomial ring R=k[x,y] over the field k. Extracting a common factor, we may harmlessly assume that the ideal…
The complement of an arrangement A of a finite number of affine hyperplanes in complex n-space has the structure of a poset of spaces indexed by the intersection poset, L(A). The space corresponding to G in L(A) is homotopy equivalent to…
In the physics literature, Bilal--Fock--Kogan \cite{BFK} introduced the idea of parabolic reduced flat connections on a surface to give a geometric origin to $W$-algebras. In this paper, we combine these ideas with higher complex…
Let $ V $ a vector space of dimension $n$. A $V$ family $ \{H_1, \ldots, H_p \} $ of vectorial hyperplanes being distinct two by two defines an arrangement $ {\cal A}_p = {\cal A} ( H_1, \ldots ,H_p ) $ of $ V $. For $ i \in \{ 1, \ldots, p…
Several topologies can be defined on the prime, the maximal and the minimal prime spectra of a commutative ring; among them, we mention the Zariski topology, the patch topology and the flat topology. By using these topologies, Tarizadeh and…
We prove new upper bounds on homotopy and homology groups of o-minimal sets in terms of their approximations by compact o-minimal sets. In particular, we improve the known upper bounds on Betti numbers of semialgebraic sets defined by…
The number of equations needed to cut out a variety given by an ideal is called the arithmetic rank (of the ideal). It was shown in [8] that the notion of arithmetic rank is strongly related to the concept of regular sequences on the Matlis…
We present a spectral sequence which efficiently computes Betti numbers of a closed semi-algebraic subset of RP^n defined by a system of quadratic inequalities and the image of the homology homomorphism induced by the inclusion of this…
A concrete lower-bound for the Hochschild cohomological dimension of a commutative $k$-algebra, in terms of three other homological invariants is obtained. This result is then used to show that most $k$-algebras fail to be quasi-free, even…
We study the compactly supported rational cohomology of configuration spaces of points on wedges of spheres, equipped with natural actions of the symmetric group and the group $Out(F_g)$ of outer automorphisms of the free group. These…
We introduce the use of liaison addition to the study of hyperplane arrangements. For an arrangement, $\mathcal A$, of hyperplanes in $\mathbb P^n$, $\mathcal A$ is free if $R/J$ is Cohen-Macaulay, where $J$ is the Jacobian ideal of…
Let $\mathcal{A} \rightarrow S$ be an abelian scheme over an irreducible variety over $\mathbb{C}$ of relative dimension $g$. For any simply-connected subset $\Delta$ of $S^{\mathrm{an}}$ one can define the Betti map from…
We continue the study of the lower central series and its associated graded components for a free associative algebra with n generators, as initiated by B. Feigin and B. Shoikhet. We establish a linear bound on the degree of tensor field…
Fatgraphs are multigraphs enriched with a cyclic order of the edges incident to a vertex. This paper presents algorithms to: (1) generate the set of all fatgraphs having a given genus and number of boundary cycles; (2) compute automorphisms…
This paper is concerned with finding bounds on betti numbers and describing combinatorially and topologically (minimal) free resolutions of powers of ideals generated by a fixed number $q$ of square-free monomials. Among such ideals, we…
We study various ideals arising in the theory of system reliability. We use ideas from the theory of divisors, orientations and matroids on graphs to describe the minimal polyhedral cellular free resolutions of these ideals. In each case we…
We prove the minimality of the CW-complex structure for complements of hyperplane arrangements in $\mathbb C^n$ by using the theory of Lefschetz pencils and results on the variation maps within a pencil of hyperplanes. This also provides a…
