We find an explicit combinatorial gradient vector field on the well known complex S (Salvetti complex) which models the complement to an arrangement of complexified hyperplanes. The argument uses a total ordering on the facets of the…
We present a package 'MixedMultiplicity' for computing mixed multiplicities of ideals in a Noetherian ring which is either local or a standard graded algebra over a field. This enables us to find mixed volumes of convex lattice polytopes…
We give a description of the Milnor fiber and the monodromy of a singularity of the form f+zg = 0 where f and g define plane curves and have no common components. The description depends only on the topological type of the two plane curve…
We calculate the mixed Hodge numbers of smooth 3-dimensional cluster varieties and show that they are of mixed Tate type. We also study the mixed Hodge structures of the cohomology and intersection cohomology groups of some singular cluster…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of spectral genus $\widetilde{p}_{g}$ of a germ of an isolated hypersurface singularity $(\mathbb{C}^{n+1}, 0) \to (\mathbb{C}, 0)$, defined as a sum of small exponents of monodromy eigenvalues. The…
The paper collects different approaches and viewpoints on bilinear forms and hermitian forms around isolated hypersurface singularities. It gives the relations between them in precise formulas. It does not contain new results.
We introduce the intersection cohomology module of a matroid and prove that it satisfies Poincar\'e duality, the hard Lefschetz theorem, and the Hodge-Riemann relations. As applications, we obtain proofs of Dowling and Wilson's Top-Heavy…
We prove that the boundaries of the Milnor fibers of smoothings of non-isolated reduced complex surface singularities are graph manifolds. Moreover, we give a method, inspired by previous work of N\'emethi and Szilard, to compute associated…
We develop a tighter implementation of basic PL topology, which keeps track of some combinatorial structure beyond PL homeomorphism type. With this technique we clarify some aspects of PL transversality and give combinatorial proofs of a…
We develop a combinatorial framework to study certain polyhedral maps which are higher-dimensional analogues of tropical covers between metric graphs. Under a mild combinatorial assumption, we show that a map satisfies the so-called…
We study codimension two determinantal varieties with isolated singularities. These singularities admit a unique smoothing, thus we can define their Milnor number as the middle Betti number of their generic fiber. For surfaces in C^4, we…
We compute the mixed Hodge structure on the cohomology ring of complements of complex coordinate subspace arrangements. The mixed Hodge structure can be described in terms of the special bigrading on the cohomology ring of complements of…
Consider the germ of an isolated surface singularity in $(\mC^3,0)$. The corresponding Milnor fibre possesses the homology lattice (the integral middle homology with a natural symmetric intersection form). An old question of A.Durfee (1978)…
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 introduce a variation of the well-known Newton-Hironaka polytope for algebroid hypersurfaces. This combinatorial object is a perturbed version of the original one, parametrized by a real number. For well-chosen values of the parameter,…
We prove compatibility relations between mixed Hodge numbers of $k$-Du Bois fibers in flat projective families and versal deformations of isolated $k$-Du Bois singularities. These extend the notion of polarized relations in asymptotic Hodge…
We show that very general hypersurfaces in odd-dimensional simplicial projective toric varieties verifying a certain combinatorial property satisfy the Hodge conjecture (these include projective spaces). This gives a connection between the…
We show that the category of mixed Hodge complexes admits a Cartan-Eilenberg structure, a notion introduced in [GNPR10] leading to a good calculation of the homotopy category in terms of (co)fibrant objects. This result provides a…
The purpose of this note is prove that the mixed Hodge structure constructed by the author in math.AG/0301140 [The Leray spectral sequence is motivic, Invent. 2005] for geometric variations of Hodge structure coincides with the structure…
A central question in arrangement theory is to determine whether the characteristic polynomial $\Delta_q$ of the algebraic monodromy acting on the homology group $H_q(F(\mathcal{A}),\mathbb{C})$ of the Milnor fiber of a complex hyperplane…
