The linear orbit of a degree d hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ is its orbit under the natural action of PGL(n+1), in the projective space of dimension $N =\binom{n+d}{d} - 1$ parameterizing such hypersurfaces. This action restricted to a…
We study spaces of lines that meet a smooth hypersurface X in P^n to high order. As an application, we give a polynomial upper bound on the number of planes contained in a smooth degree d hypersurface in P^5 and provide a proof of a result…
We construct families of rational functions $f \colon \bP^1_k \to \bP^1_k$ of degree $d \geq 2$ over a perfect field $k$ whose associated fixed-point processes fail to be martingales. Conversely, for any normal variety $X \subset…
Assuming the AND-distillation conjecture, the Pathwidth problem of determining whether a given graph G has pathwidth at most k admits no polynomial kernelization with respect to k. The present work studies the existence of polynomial…
Let $I(t)= \oint_{\delta(t)} \omega$ be an Abelian integral, where $H=y^2-x^{n+1}+P(x)$ is a hyperelliptic polynomial of Morse type, $\delta(t)$ a horizontal family of cycles in the curves $\{H=t\}$, and $\omega$ a polynomial 1-form in the…
For a graph G, we construct two algebras, whose dimensions are both equal to the number of spanning trees of G. One of these algebras is the quotient of the polynomial ring modulo certain monomial ideal, while the other is the quotient of…
We study several natural instances of the geometric hitting set problem for input consisting of sets of line segments (and rays, lines) having a small number of distinct slopes. These problems model path monitoring (e.g., on road networks)…
Let f: A^N \to A^N be a regular polynomial automorphism defined over a number field K. For each place v of K, we construct the v-adic Green functions G_{f,v} and G_{f^{-1},v} (i.e., the v-adic canonical height functions) for f and f^{-1}.…
Computing the critical points of a polynomial function $q\in\mathbb Q[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ restricted to the vanishing locus $V\subset\mathbb R^n$ of polynomials $f_1,\ldots, f_p\in\mathbb Q[X_1,\ldots, X_n]$ is of first importance in several…
Our objective is to illuminate the global structure of non-orientable manifolds with signature-changing metrics, with particular emphasis on global topological obstructions. Using explicit geometric constructions based on the topology of…
We provide some conditions for the graph of a Hoelder-continuous function on \bar{D}, where \bar{D} is a closed disc in the complex plane, to be polynomially convex. Almost all sufficient conditions known to date --- provided the function…
Let $T:= T(A, {\mathcal D})$ be a disk-like self-affine tile generated by an integral expanding matrix $A$ and a consecutive collinear digit set ${\mathcal D}$, and let $f(x)=x^{2}+px+q$ be the characteristic polynomial of $A$. In the…
We compute the diagonal F-thresholds of determinantal hypersurfaces arising from a generic matrix and from a generic symmetric matrix, as well as of the Pfaffian hypersurface arising from a generic skew-symmetric matrix of even size. The…
We study algebraic complexity classes and their complete polynomials under \emph{homogeneous linear} projections, not just under the usual affine linear projections that were originally introduced by Valiant in 1979. These reductions are…
The problem of the optimal approximation of circular arcs by parametric polynomial curves is considered. The optimality relates to the Hausdorff distance and have not been studied yet in the literature. Parametric polynomial curves of low…
Let $f\in\mathbb{Z}[T]$ be any polynomial of degree $d>1$ and $F\in\mathbb{Z}[X_{0},...,X_{n}]$ an irreducible homogeneous polynomial of degree $e>1$ such that the projective hypersurface $V(F)$ is smooth. In this paper we give a bound for…
Let (C, p_1, p_2, \ldots, p_n) be a general marked curve of genus g, and q_1, q_2, ..., q_n \in P^r be a general collection of points. We determine when there exists a nondegenerate degree d map f : C \to P^r so that f(p_i) = q_i for all i.…
Let $M_d$ be the moduli space of one-dimensional complex polynomial dynamical systems. The escape rates of the critical points determine a critical heights map $G: M_d \to \mathbb{R}^{d-1}$. For generic values of $G$, each connected…
Let f be a smooth Morse function on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert manifold, all of whose critical points have infinite Morse index and co-index. For any critical point x choose an integer a(x) arbitrarily. Then there exists a…
In this paper, we focus on clarifying the concept of solving equations of degree greater than six using continuous functions or hypergeometric functions and providing another proof of the non-existence of algebraic solutions for equations…
