A relation is proved between the Poincar\'{e} series of the coordinate algebra of a two-dimensional quasihomogeneous isolated hypersurface singularity and the characteristic polynomial of its monodromy operator. For a Kleinian singularity…

We study the effect of diagram automorphisms on rank-level duality. We use it to prove new symplectic rank-level dualities on genus zero smooth curves with marked points and chosen coordinates. We also show that rank-level dualities for the…

Gabrielov numbers describe certain Coxeter-Dynkin diagrams of the 14 exceptional unimodal singularities and play a role in Arnold's strange duality. In a previous paper, the authors defined Gabrielov numbers of a cusp singularity with an…

Homological Projective duality (HP-duality) theory, introduced by Kuznetsov [42], is one of the most powerful frameworks in the homological study of algebraic geometry. The main result (HP-duality theorem) of the theory gives complete…

Each extreme edge of the Newton diagram of a plurisubharmonic polynomial on $\mathbb{C}^2$ gives rise to a plurisubharmonic polynomial. It is tempting to believe that the union of the extreme edges or the convex hull of said union will do…

An isolated hypersurface singularity comes equipped with many different pairings on different spaces, the intersection form and the Seifert form on the Milnor lattice, a polarizing form for a mixed Hodge structure on a dual space, and a…

Thom polynomials provide universal formulas for the fundamental class of singularity loci in terms of characteristic classes. Ohmoto extended this notion to SSM-Thom polynomials, which refine this description by capturing the richer…

Fourteen kinds of triangle singularities with modality one in Arnold's classification list are discussed. We consider which kinds of combinations of rational double points can appear on small deformation fibers of the singularities. We show…

Electric-magnetic duality and higher dimensional analogues are obtained as symmetries in generalized coset constructions, similar to the axial-vector duality of two dimensional coset models described by Rocek and Verlinde. We also study…

A characteristic polynomial is an important invariant in the field of hyperplane arrangement. For the Linial arrangement of any irreducible root system, Postnikov and Stanley conjectured that all roots of the characteristic polynomial have…

Ordinary polytopes were introduced by Bisztriczky as a (nonsimplicial) generalization of cyclic polytopes. We show that the colex order of facets of the ordinary polytope is a shelling order. This shelling shares many nice properties with…

We study singularities obtained by the contraction of the maximal divisor in compact (non kaehlerian) surfaces which contain global spherical shells. These singularities are of genus 1 or 2, may be Q-Gorenstein, numerically Gorenstein or…

We give sharp lower bounds for the degree of the syzygies involving the partial derivatives of a homogeneous polynomial defining an even dimensional nodal hypersurface. This implies the validity of formulas due to M. Saito, L. Wotzlaw and…

Kasteleyn counted the number of domino tilings of a rectangle by considering a mutation of the adjacency matrix: a Kasteleyn matrix K. In this paper we present a generalization of Kasteleyn matrices and a combinatorial interpretation for…

Duality of curves is one of the important aspects of the ``classical'' algebraic geometry. In this paper, using this foundation, the duality of tropical polynomials is constructed to introduce the duality of Non-Archimedean curves. Using…

We give a new proof of Zariski's multiplicity conjecture in the case of isolated hypersurface singularities; this was first proved by de Bobadilla-Pe\l ka \cite{BobadillaPelka}. Our proof uses the TQFT structure of fixed-point Floer…

In a recent paper, Allen and Swenberg investigated which link polynomials are capable of detecting causality in (2+1)-dimensional globally hyperbolic spacetimes. They ultimately suggested it is likely that the Jones Polynomial accomplishes…

The notion of Ehrhart tensor polynomials, a natural generalization of the Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polytope, was recently introduced by Ludwig and Silverstein. We initiate a study of their coefficients. In the vector and matrix…

A system in a Birkhoff normal form with an irregular singularity of Poincare rank 1 at the origin and a regular singularity at infinity is through the Borel-Laplace transform dual to a system in an Okubo form. Schafke has showed that the…

Heteroclinic connections between two distinct hyperbolic periodic orbits in conservative systems are important in a wide range of applications. On the other hand, it is theoretically challenging to find large amplitude connections from…
