Tropical algebraic geometry is the geometry of the tropical semiring (R, min, +). The theory of total positivity is a natural generalization of the study of matrices with all minors positive. In this paper we introduce the totally positive…
A k-fan is a set of k half-lines (rays) all starting from the same point, called the origin of the fan. We discuss the partition of convex 2D regions into n (a positive integer) equal area convex pieces by fans with the following additional…
Let $t_1,\ldots,t_n$ be $\ell$-group terms in the variables $X_1,\ldots,X_m$. Let $\hat t_1,\ldots,\hat t_n$ be their associated piecewise homogeneous linear functions. Let $G $ be the $\ell$-group generated by $\hat t_1, \ldots,\hat t_n$…
We generalize the finite version of Gowers' Ramsey theorem to multiple tetris-like operations and apply it to show that a group of homeomorphisms that preserve a "typical" linear order of branches of the Lelek fan, a compact connected…
We apply convex geometry (cones, fans) to homological input (abelian categories, hearts of bounded t-structures) to construct a new invariant of an abelian category, its heart fan. This can be viewed as a `universal phase diagram' for…
We describe a family of tropical fans related to Grassmannian cluster algebras. These fans are related to the kinematic space of massless scattering processes in a number of ways. For each fan associated to the Grassmannian ${\rm Gr}(k,n)$…
The tropical fundamental class of a rational balanced polyhedral fan induces cap products between tropical cohomology and tropical Borel-Moore homology. When all these cap products are isomorphisms, the fan is said to be a tropical…
Graph associahedra are natural generalizations of the classical associahedra. They provide polytopal realizations of the nested complex of a graph $G$, defined as the simplicial complex whose vertices are the tubes (i.e. connected induced…
Generalizing the concepts of Stanley-Reisner and affine monoid algebras, one can associate to a rational pointed fan the toric face ring. Assuming that this ring is Cohen-Macaulay, the main result of this paper is to characterize the…
A fan $F$ is \emph{endpoint-homogeneous} if for any two endpoints $e,e'$ of $F$, there is a homeomorphism $h: F \rightarrow F$ such that $h(e) = e'$. We prove there are uncountably many distinct homeomorphism types of endpoint-homogeneous…
A famous construction of Gelfand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky associates to each finite point configuration $A \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ a polyhedral fan, which stratifies the space of weight vectors by the combinatorial types of regular…
We introduce the notion of Lorentzian fans, which form a special class of tropical fans that are particularly well-suited for proving Alexandrov-Fenchel type inequalities. To demonstrate the utility of Lorentzian fans, we prove a practical…
A~$k$-associahedron is a simplicial complex whose facets, called~$k$-triangulations, are the inclusion maximal sets of diagonals of a convex polygon where no~$k+1$ diagonals mutually cross. Such complexes are conjectured for about a decade…
Proving statements about linear operators expressed in terms of identities often leads to finding elements of certain form in noncommutative polynomial ideals. We illustrate this by examples coming from actual operator statements and…
We describe many different realizations with integer coordinates for the associahedron (i.e. the Stasheff polytope) and for the cyclohedron (i.e. the Bott-Taubes polytope) and compare them to the permutahedron of type A_n and B_n…
In the paper: Fans in the Theory of Real Semigroups. I. Algebraic Theory (submitted) we introduced the notion of fan in the categories of real semigoups and their dual abstract real spectra and developed the algebraic theory of these…
This paper shows that Gr\"obner walks aiming for the elimination of variables from a polynomial ideal can be terminated much earlier than previously known. To this end we provide an improved stopping criterion for a known Gr\"obner walk…
Let M be a coherent module over the ring D of linear differential operators on an analytic manifold X and let us consider k germs of transverse hypersurfaces at a point x in X. The Malgrange-Kashiwara V-filtrations along these…
For any lattice congruence of the weak order on $\mathfrak{S}_n$, N. Reading proved that glueing together the cones of the braid fan that belong to the same congruence class defines a complete fan. We prove that this fan is the normal fan…
In this paper we answer a question posed by V.V. Batyrev. The question asked if there exists a complete regular fan with more than quadratically many primitive collections. We construct a smooth projective toric variety associated to a…
