Some combinatorial properties of fixed boundary rhombus random tilings with octagonal symmetry are studied. A geometrical analysis of their configuration space is given as well as a description in terms of discrete dynamical systems, thus…
We study the question of when a ring can be realized as a direct summand of a regular ring by examining the case of homogeneous coordinate rings. We present very strong obstacles to expressing a graded ring with isolated singularity as a…
Multitriangulations, and more generally subword complexes, yield a large family of simplicial complexes that are homeomorphic to spheres. Until now, all attempts to prove or disprove that they can be realized as convex polytopes faced major…
We study the Cox rings of smooth anticanonical Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in smooth toric Fano varieties. Using the combinatorics of primitive pairs of the ambient Fano polytope and the description of Cox rings of embedded varieties via…
Occam's Razor tells us to pick the simplest model that fits our observations. In order to make sense of his process mathematically, we interpret it in the context of posets of functions. Our approach leads to some unusual new combinatorial…
The purpose of this note is to relate certain ring-theoretic properties of rings in mixed and positive characteristics that are related to each other by a tilting operation used in perfectoid geometry. To this aim, we exploit the…
We define generalized Collatz mappings on free abelian groups of finite rank and study their iteration trajectories. Using geometric arguments we describe cones of points having a divergent trajectory and we deduce lower bounds for the…
Let $R$ be a local ring of characteristic $p>0$ which is $F$-finite and has perfect residue field. We compute the generalized Hilbert-Kunz invariant for certain modules over several classes of rings: hypersurfaces of finite representation…
We describe the "generic" part of the character ring of general linear groups over a finite field in terms of quiver representations.
We describe the effective and the big cones of a projective symmetric variety. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient combinatorial criterion for the bigness of a nef divisor on a projective symmetric variety. When the variety is…
Each graph and choice of a commutative ring gives rise to an associated graphical group. In this article, we introduce and investigate graph polynomials that enumerate conjugacy classes of graphical groups over finite fields according to…
In this paper, we present a general framework for the derivation of interesting finite combinatorial sums starting with certain classes of polynomial identities. The sums that can be derived involve products of binomial coefficients and…
We provide combinatorial/topological formula for the multiplicity of a complex analytic normal surface singularity whenever the analytic structure on the fixed topological type is generic.
We describe the rings of invariants for the finite orthogonal groups of plus type in odd characteristic acting on the defining representations. We also describe the invariants of the corresponding Sylow subgroups in the defining…
We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…
We study the geometry of $\mathcal{Q}$-conic arrangements in the complex projective plane. These are arrangements consisting of smooth conics and they admit certain quasi-homogeneous singularities. We show that such $\mathcal{Q}$-conic…
We provide a generalization of the construction of a spectrum of a commutative ring as a locally ringed space, applicable to cone injectivity classes in general contexts, especially in locally finitely presentable categories. In its full…
Given an algebraic torus action on a normal projective variety with finitely generated total coordinate ring, we study the GIT-equivalence for not necessarily ample linearized divisors, and we provide a combinatorial description of the…
We explain how to see finite combinatorics of preorders implicit in the {text} of basic topological definitions or arguments in (Bourbaki, General topology, Ch.I), and define a concise combinatorial notation such that complete definitions…
Let X be a surface whose Cox ring has a single relation satisfying moreover a kind of linearity property. Under a simple assumption, we show that the geometric Manin's conjectures hold for some degrees lying in the dual of the effective…
