Gaussian random polytopes have received a lot of attention especially in the case where the dimension is fixed and the number of points goes to infinity. Our focus is on the less studied case where the dimension goes to infinity and the…
Let $A$ be an $n$ by $N$ real valued random matrix, and $\h$ denote the $N$-dimensional hypercube. For numerous random matrix ensembles, the expected number of $k$-dimensional faces of the random $n$-dimensional zonotope $A\h$ obeys the…
The typical cell of a Voronoi tessellation generated by $n+1$ uniformly distributed random points on the $d$-dimensional unit sphere $\mathbb S^d$ is studied. Its $f$-vector is identified in distribution with the $f$-vector of a beta'…
Motivation coming from the study of affine Weyl groups, a structure of ranked poset is defined on the set of circular permutations in $S_n$ (that is, $n$-cycles). It is isomorphic to the poset of so-called admitted vectors, and to an…
For a finite non-empty set $X$, let $\mathfrak{P}(X)$ denote the set of all posets with carrier $X$, ordered by inclusion of their partial order relations. We investigate properties of posets $P \in \mathfrak{P}(X)$ for which no lower cover…
We explore the operad of finite posets and its algebras. We use order polytopes to investigate the combinatorial properties of zeta values. By generalizing a family of zeta value identities, we demonstrate the applicability of this…
Let $k, n$ and $r$ be positive integers with $k < n$ and $r\leq\lfloor\frac{n}{k}\rfloor$. We determine the facets of the $r$-stable $n,k$-hypersimplex. As a result, it turns out that the $r$-stable $n,k$-hypersimplex has exactly $2n$…
We are interested in the distribution of the number of faces across all the $2-$cell embeddings of a graph, which is equivalent to the distribution of genus by Euler's formula. In order to study this distribution, we consider the local…
According to Suk's breakthrough result on the Erdos-Szekeres problem, any point set in general position in the plane, which has no $n$ elements that form the vertex set of a convex $n$-gon, has at most $2^{n+O\left({n^{2/3}\log n}\right)}$…
We prove that if an $n$-dimensional space $X$ satisfies certain topological conditions then any triangulation of $X$ as well as any its representation as a simplicial set with contractible faces has at least $2^n$ faces of dimension $n$.…
For each $n\ge 1$ we determine the minimum number of points in a poset with cyclic automorphism group of order $n$.
A finite poset X carries a natural structure of a topological space. Fix a field k, and denote by D(X) the bounded derived category of sheaves of finite dimensional k-vector spaces over X. Two posets X and Y are said to be derived…
Let $P_n$ be an $n$-dimensional regular polytope from one of the three infinite series (regular simplices, regular crosspolytopes, and cubes). Project $P_n$ onto a random, uniformly distributed linear subspace of dimension $d\geq 2$. We…
There is a canonical way to associate two simplicial complexes K, L to any relation $R\subset X\times Y$. Moreover, the geometric realizations of K and L are homotopy equivalent. This was studied in the fifties by C.H. Dowker. In this…
We give a formula for the Euler characteristic of a triangulated manifold of even dimension in terms of the numbers of even-dimensional faces only. The coefficients in this formula are universal (they do not depend on the dimension of the…
We introduce posets of simple vertex labeled minors of graphs and a generalization to the level of polymatroids, collectively termed minor posets. We show that any minor poset is isomorphic to the face poset of a regular CW sphere, and in…
In order to be able to use methods of Universal Algebra for investigating posets, we assign to every pseudocomplemented poset, to every relatively pseudocomplemented poset and to every sectionally pseudocomplemented poset a certain algebra…
We investigate point arrangements $v_i\in\mathbb R^d,i\in \{1,...,n \}$ with certain prescribed symmetries. The arrangement space of $v$ is the column span of the matrix in which the $v_i$ are the rows. We characterize properties of $v$ in…
An important theorem by Timofte states that nonnegativity of real $n$-variate symmetric polynomials of degree $d$ can be decided at test sets given by all points with at most $\lfloor\frac{d}{2}\rfloor$ distinct components. However, if the…
We study a class of polyhedra associated to marked posets. Examples of these polyhedra are Gelfand-Tsetlin polytopes and cones, as well as Berenstein-Zelevinsky polytopes, all of which have appeared in the representation theory of…
