The main purpose of this paper is to introduce a new category, which we call a resonance category, whose combinatorics reflect that of canonical stratifications of $n$-fold symmetric smash products. The study of the stratifications can then…
We give a geometric approach to the relation between the irreducible components of the characteristic varieties of local systems on a plane curve arrangement complement and the associated pencils of plane curves discovered recently by M.…
The relationship between linear relations and matrix pencils is investigated. Given a linear relation, we introduce its Weyr characteristic. If the linear relation is the range (or the kernel) representation of a given matrix pencil, we…
Let $C$ be an algebraic curve defined by a sufficiently generic bivariate Laurent polynomial with given Newton polygon $\Delta$. It is classical that the geometric genus of $C$ equals the number of lattice points in the interior of…
The complete classification of (3,3)-nets and of (3,4)-nets with only double and triple points is given. Up to lattice isomorphism, there are exactly 3 effective possibilities in each case, and some of these provide new examples of…
Let $\bP^n$ be the space of all homogeneous polynomials of degree $n$ in two variables with real coefficients. The standard discriminant $\D_{n+1}\subset \bP^n$ is Whitney stratified according to the number and the multiplicities of…
A class of nets in constructive (in A.A.Markov's sense) topological space for which the convergence is equivalent to convergence of all subsequences, is described. B.A.Kushner's theorem about coincidence of strong and weak constructive…
We study tensor network varieties associated with the triangular graph, with a focus on the case where one of the physical dimensions is 2. This allows us to interpret the tensors as pencils of matrices. We provide a complete…
Relative notions of combinatorial asphericity have been used to prove that injective labeled oriented trees (which encode spines of ribbon 2-knots) are aspherical. This article presents an overview and comparison of the different notions of…
The definition of principal nest is supplemented with a system of frames that make possible the classification of combinatorial types for every level of the nest. As a consequence, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the…
The paper discusses the limitations of deep learning models in identifying and utilizing features that remain invariant under a bijective transformation on the data entries, which we refer to as combinatorial patterns. We argue that the…
We study a generalization of the classical correspondence between homogeneous quadratic polynomials, quadratic forms, and symmetric/alternating bilinear forms to forms in $n$ variables. The main tool is combinatorial polarization, and the…
Optics, aka functional references, are classes of tools that allow composable access into compound data structures. Usually defined as programming language libraries, they provide combinators to manipulate different shapes of data such as…
The main purpose of this article is to show that the numerical range of a linear pencil $\lambda A + B$ is equal to $\mathbb{C}$ if and only if $0$ belongs to the convex hull of the joint numerical range of $A$ and $B$. We also prove that…
The set of mxn singular matrix pencils with normal rank at most r is an algebraic set with r+1 irreducible components. These components are the closure of the orbits (under strict equivalence) of r+1 matrix pencils which are in Kronecker…
An important goal in studying the relations between unitary VOAs and conformal nets is to prove the equivalence of their ribbon categories. In this article, we prove this conjecture for many familiar examples. Our main idea is to construct…
A plabic graph is a planar bicolored graph embedded in a disk, which satisfies some combinatorial conditions. Postnikov's boundary measurement map takes the space of positive edge weights of a plabic graph $G$ to a positroid cell in some…
Any multiplicative quiver variety is endowed with a Poisson structure constructed by Van den Bergh through reduction from a Hamiltonian quasi-Poisson structure. The smooth locus carries a corresponding symplectic form defined by Yamakawa…
Two types of Poisson pencils connected to classical R-matrices and their quantum counterparts are considered. A representation theory of the quantum algebras related to some symmetric orbits in $sl(n)^*$ is constructed. A twisted version of…
We discuss the use of methods coming from integrable systems to study problems of enumerative and algebraic combinatorics, and develop two examples: the enumeration of Alternating Sign Matrices and related combinatorial objects, and the…
