We have developed in the past several algorithms with intrinsic complexity bounds for the problem of point finding in real algebraic varieties. Our aim here is to give a comprehensive presentation of the geometrical tools which are…
The present article is an extended version of [6] containing new results and an updated list of references. We review the notion of polar analyticity introduced in a previous paper and succesfully applied in Mellin analysis and quadrature…
Given a projective plane $\Sigma$ and a polarity $\theta$ of $\Sigma$, the corresponding polarity graph is the graph whose vertices are the points of $\Sigma$, and two distinct points $p_1$ and $p_2$ are adjacent if $p_1$ is incident to…
We study generalized polar decompositions of densely defined, closed linear operators in Hilbert spaces and provide some applications to relatively (form) bounded and relatively (form) compact perturbations of self-adjoint, normal, and…
We describe a new relation between the topology of hyperplane arrangements, Milnor fibers and global polar curves, via the affine Lefschetz theory developped by A. N\'emethi. In particular, we improve some results due to Orlik and Terao…
We compute the motivic Milnor fiber of a complex plane curve singularity in an inductive and combinatoric way using the extended simplified resolution graph. The method introduced in this article has a consequence that one can study the…
We provide new criteria for the integrality and birationality of an extension of graded algebras in terms of the general notion of polar multiplicities of Kleiman and Thorup. As an application, we obtain a new criterion for when a module is…
In this article, we functorially associate definable sets to $k$-analytic curves, and definable maps to analytic morphisms between them, for a large class of $k$-analytic curves. Given a $k$-analytic curve $X$, our association allows us to…
Recently, a number of interesting relations have been discovered between generalised Pauli/Dirac groups and certain finite geometries. Here, we succeeded in finding a general unifying framework for all these relations. We introduce…
We consider various regular graphs defined on the set of elements of given rank of a finite polar space. It is likely that no two such graphs, of the same kind but defined for different ranks, can have the same degree. We shall prove this…
A polarity of a projective plane is a map, often assumed to be involutive, mapping a generic point to a generic line and reciprocally. The most classical polarity is the polarity with respect to a conic, but other exist: the harmonic…
Deleting a hyperplane from a polar space associated with a symplectic polarity we get a specific, symplectic, affine polar space. Similar geometry, called an \afsempol\ arises as a result of generalization of the notion of an alternating…
A graph $G$ is said to be an $(s, k)$-polar graph if its vertex set admits a partition $(A, B)$ such that $A$ and $B$ induce, respectively, a complete $s$-partite graph and the disjoint union of at most $k$ complete graphs. Polar graphs and…
We define the polar curves and the polar family associated to a projective web and obtain some results about the geometry of the generic element of this family. We also deal with the particular case of foliations and prove the constancy of…
Let $(X,0) \subset (\mathbb{R}^n,0)$ be the germ of a closed subanalytic set and let $f$ and $g : (X,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{R},0)$ be two subanalytic functions. Under some conditions, we relate the critical points of $g$ on the real Milnor…
Let $f(\bfz,\bar\bfz)$ be a mixed strongly polar homogeneous polynomial of $3$ variables $\bfz=(z_1,z_2, z_3)$. It defines a Riemann surface $V:=\{[\bfz]\in \BP^{2}\,|\,f(\bfz,\bar\bfz)=0 \}$ in the complex projective space $\BP^{2}$. We…
Extending the work of Freese, we further develop the theory of generalized trigonometric functions. In particular, we study to what extent the notion of polar form for the complex numbers may be generalized to arbitrary associative…
We study the boundary of the Milnor fibre of real analytic singularities $f: (\bR^m,0) \to (\bR^k,0)$, $m\geq k$, with an isolated critical value and the Thom $a_f$-property. We define the vanishing zone for $f$ and we give necessary and…
We consider the convergence of additive functionals under the determinantal point process with the confluent hypergeometric kernel, corresponding to a sufficiently smooth function $f(x/R)$, as $R\to\infty$. We show that these functionals…
For a projective hypersurface $X \subset \P^n$, the images of the polar maps of degree $k$ are studied. The cohomology class defined by these maps is calculated and classical results on dual varieties are presented as applications.
