The theory of modular deformations is generalized for the category of complex analytic polyhedra which includes germs of complex space as well as any compact complex analytic space. The objective of the theory is a construction of fine…
In this paper we present an explicit combinatorial description of a special class of facets of the secondary polytopes of hypersimplices. These facets correspond to polytopal subdivisions called multi-splits. We show a relation between the…
A discrete analogue of the holomorphic map z^a is studied. It is given by a Schramm's circle pattern with the combinatorics of the square grid. It is shown that the corresponding immersed circle patterns lead to special separatrix solutions…
We show how to construct homology bases for certain CW complexes in terms of discrete Morse theory and cellular homology. We apply this technique to study certain subcomplexes of the half cube polytope studied in previous works. This…
Let L be the generalized mixed product ideal induced by a monomial ideal I. In this paper, we study the polymatroidal property of generalized mixed product ideals. Furthermore, some algebraic invariants of L are computed.
We report on various results, conjectures, and open problems related to Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of matroids. We focus on conjectures about the roots of these polynomials, all of which appear here for the first time.
The present paper is devoted to the study of dimonoids, algebraic structures with two associative binary operations that satisfy a prescribed system of axioms. We investigate the properties of dual dimonoids. In the class of noncommutative…
In this paper we consider planar polygons with parallel opposite sides. This type of polygons can be regarded as discretizations of closed convex planar curves by taking tangent lines at samples with pairwise parallel tangents. For this…
The weak-map order on the matroid base polytopes is the partial order defined by inclusion. Lucas proved that the base polytope of no binary matroid includes the base polytope of a connected matroid. A matroid base polytope is said to be…
There are many different algebraic, geometric and combinatorial objects that one can attach to a complex polynomial with distinct roots. In this article we introduce a new object that encodes many of the existing objects that have…
In recent contributions, algebraic multigrid methods have been designed and studied from the viewpoint of the spectral complementarity. In this note we focus our efforts on specific applications and, more precisely, on large linear systems…
One of the simplest axiomatizations of a matroid is in terms of independent sets. Curiously, no such independent set axiomatization is known for Gelfand and Serganova's WP-matroids (which are ``Coxeter group analogues'' of matroids). Here…
This thesis presents new applications of Gale duality to the study of polytopes, point configurations and oriented matroids with extremal combinatorial properties. The first part of the thesis explores construction techniques for neighborly…
Neighborly polytopes are those that maximize the number of faces in each dimension among all polytopes with the same number of vertices. Despite their extremal properties they form a surprisingly rich class of polytopes, which has been…
The Assmus-Mattson theorem gives a way to identify block designs arising from codes. This result was broadened to matroids and weighted designs. In this work we present a further two-fold generalisation: first from matroids to polymatroids…
We define the equivariant Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of a matroid equipped with a group of symmetries, generalizing the nonequivariant case. We compute this invariant for arbitrary uniform matroids and for braid matroids of small rank.
We construct a Leray model for a discrete polymatroid with arbitrary building set and we prove a generalized Goresky-MacPherson formula. The first row of the model is the Chow ring of the polymatroid; we prove Poincar\'e duality, Hard…
The celebrated Mason's conjecture states that the sequence of independent set numbers of any matroid is log-concave, and even ultra log-concave. The strong form of Mason's conjecture was independently solved by Anari, Liu, Oveis Gharan and…
Adhesive polymatroids were defined by F. Mat\'u\v{s} motivated by entropy functions. Two polymatroids are adhesive if they can be glued together along their joint part in a modular way; and are one-adhesive, if one of them has a single…
Folding is emerging as a promising manufacturing process to transform flat materials into functional structures, offering efficiency by reducing the need for welding, gluing, and molding, while minimizing waste and enabling automation.…
