In recent articles, the investigation of atomic bases in cluster algebras associated to affine quivers led the second-named author to introduce a variety called transverse quiver Grassmannian and the first-named and third-named authors to…

A frame is a system of vectors $S$ in Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$ with properties which allow one to write algorithms for the two operations, analysis and synthesis, relative to $S$, for all vectors in $\mathscr{H}$; expressed in…

We prove that the space $M(K(x,y))$ of $\mathbb R$-places of the field $K(x,y)$ of rational functions of two variables with coefficients in a totally Archimedean field $K$ has covering and integral dimensions $\dim M(K(x,y))=\dim_\IZ…

Metrics on Grassmannians have a wide array of applications: machine learning, wireless communication, computer vision, etc. But the available distances between subspaces of distinct dimensions present problems, and the dimensional asymmetry…

Let F(X) be the set of finite nonempty subsets of a set X. We have found the necessary and sufficient conditions under which for a given function f:F(X)-->R there is an ultrametric on X such that f(A)=diam A for every A\in F(X). For finite…

We introduce the concepts of complex Grassmannian codes and designs. Let G(m,n) denote the set of m-dimensional subspaces of C^n: then a code is a finite subset of G(m,n) in which few distances occur, while a design is a finite subset of…

It is well-known that the coset spaces G(k((z)))/G(k[[z]]), for a reductive group G over a field k, carry the geometric structure of an inductive limit of projective k-schemes. This k-ind-scheme is known as the affine Grassmannian for G.…

This paper proves the existence of potentials of the first and second kind of a Frobenius like structure in a frame which encompasses families of arrangements. Surprisingly the proof is based on the study of finite sets of vectors in a…

This paper extends results of Hatcher and Vogtmann's work "Cerf Theory for Graphs" to ribbon graphs. Given an orientable, punctured and basepointed surface Sigma, we prove that the space of ribbon graphs that can be drawn in Sigma is…

We describe the fundamental group and second homotopy group of ordered $k-$point sets in $Gr(k,n)$ generating a subspace of fixed dimension.

Let $K$ be an infinite field and $R=K[x_1,...,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring. Let $V=V_1, ..., V_m$ be a collection of vector spaces of linear forms. Denote by $A(V)$ the $K$-subalgebra of $R$ generated by the elements of the product $V_1...…

Let $\G(k,r)$ be the Grassmannian of $k$--subspaces in $\Proj^r$ embedded in $\Proj^{N(k,r)}$, with $N(k,r)={{r+1}\choose {k+1}}-1$, via the Pl\"ucker embedding. In this paper, extending some classical results by Gallarati (see \cite…

The affine Grassmannian is a noncompact smooth manifold that parameterizes all affine subspaces of a fixed dimension. It is a natural generalization of Euclidean space, points being zero-dimensional affine subspaces. We will realize the…

The lower central series invariants M_k of an associative algebra A are the two-sided ideals generated by k-fold iterated commutators; the M_k provide a filtration of A. We study the relationship between the geometry of X = Spec A_ab and…

The Grassmannian $\mathcal{G}_q(n,k)$ is the set of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$. K\"{o}tter and Kschischang showed that codes in Grassmannian space can be used for error-correction in random network…

The real Grassmannian is both a projective variety (via Pl\"ucker coordinates) and an affine variety (via orthogonal projections). We connect these two representations, and we develop the commutative algebra of the latter variety. We…

We derive explicit dimension formulas for irreducible $M_F$-spherical $K_F$-representations where $K_F$ is the maximal compact subgroup of the general linear group $GL(d,F)$ over a local field $F$ and $M_F$ is a closed subgroup of $K_F$…

The Grassmann angle improves upon similar angles between subspaces that measure volume contraction in orthogonal projections. It works in real or complex spaces, with important differences, and is asymmetric, what makes it more efficient…
