In this paper, we constuct the multi-point blowup solutions of self-similar type for the inviscid Burgers equation. The shape and blowup dynamics are precisely described. Moreover, the solutions we construct are stable under small…

We introduce constructible directed complexes, a combinatorial presentation of higher categories inspired by constructible complexes in poset topology. Constructible directed complexes with a greatest element, called atoms, encompass common…

We show that an 'almost strong Lefschetz' property holds for the barycentric subdivision of a shellable complex. From this we conclude that for the barycentric subdivision of a Cohen-Macaulay complex, the $h$-vector is unimodal, peaks in…

We extend our theory of amorphous packings of hard spheres to binary mixtures and more generally to multicomponent systems. The theory is based on the assumption that amorphous packings produced by typical experimental or numerical…

Let X denote a reduced algebraic variety and D a Weil divisor on X. The pair (X,D) is said to be semi-simple normal crossings (semi-snc) at a point a of X if X is simple normal crossings at a (i.e., a simple normal crossings hypersurface,…

It is shown that there is an order isomorphism $\phi'$ from the poset $V$ of $B\times B$-orbits on the wonderful compactification of a semi-simple adjoint group $G$ with Weyl group $W$ to an interval in reverse Chevalley-Bruhat order on a…

The $k$-cut complex was recently introduced by Bayer et al. as a generalization of earlier work of Fr{\"o}berg (1990) and Eagon and Reiner (1998), and was shown to be shellable for several classes of graphs. In this article, we prove that…

Imposing a strong condition on the linear order of shellable complexes, we introduce strong shellability. Basic properties, including the existence of dimension-decreasing strong shelling orders, are developed with respect to nonpure…

Via a computer search, Altshuler and Steinberg found that there are 1296 +1 combinatorial 3-manifolds on nine vertices, of which only one is non-sphere. This exceptional 3-manifold $K^{3}_{9}$ triangulates the twisted $S^{2}$-bundle over…

In this paper, we successfully set up a generalized sphere theorem for compact Riemannian manifolds with radial Ricci curvature bounded.

We show that modular operads are equivalent to modules over a certain simple properad which we call the Brauer properad. Furthermore, we show that, in this setting, the Feynman transform corresponds to the cobar construction for modules of…

In this paper, we present a simple combinatorial proof of a Weyl type formula for hook Schur polynomials, which has been obtained by using a Kostant type cohomology formula for $\frak{gl}_{m|n}$. In general, we can obtain in a combinatorial…

We consider the homogenized linear feasibility problem, to find an $x$ on the unit sphere, satisfying $n$ line ar inequalities $a_i^Tx\ge 0$. To solve this problem we consider the centers of the insphere of spherical simpl ices, whose…

We show how to use Jantzen's sum formula for Weyl modules to prove semisimplicity criteria for endomorphism algebras of $\textbf{U}_q$-tilting modules (for any field $\mathbb{K}$ and any parameter $q\in\mathbb{K}-\{0,-1\}$). As an…

We show that if $K$ is a nilpotent finite complex, then $\Omega K$ can be built from spheres using fibrations and homotopy (inverse) limits. This is applied to show that if ${\mathrm {map}}_*(X,S^n)$ is weakly contractible for all $n$, then…

We show that solutions to the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system on ${\mathbb S}^1$ with critical fractional diffusion $(-\Delta)^\frac{1}{2}$ remain smooth for any initial data and any positive time. This disproves, at least in the…

We construct a sequence of explicit blow-ups and blow-downs on irreducible compact Hermitian symmetric spaces $X$ which transforms it into a projective space of the same dimension. Moreover this resolves a birational map given by Landsberg…

The shellability of the boundary complex of an unbounded polyhedron is investigated. To this end, it is necessary to pass to a suitable compactification, e.g., by one point. This observation can be exploited to prove that any tropical…

We construct a (shellable) polyhedral cell complex that supports a minimal free resolution of a Borel fixed ideal, which is minimally generated (in the Borel sense) by just one monomial in S=k[x_1,x_2,...,x_n]; this includes the case of…

An h-tiling on a finite simplicial complex is a partition of its geometric realization by maximal simplices deprived of several codimension one faces together with possibly their remaining face of highest codimension. In this last case, the…
