Let $\mathrm{R}$ be a real closed field. We prove that the number of semi-algebraically connected components of a real hypersurface in $\mathrm{R}^n$ defined by a multi-affine polynomial of degree $d$ is bounded by $2^{d-1}$. This bound is…

Suppose $c_1,\ldots,c_{n+k}$ are real numbers, $\{a_1,\ldots,a_{n+k}\}\!\subset\!\mathbb{R}^n$ is a set of points not all lying in the same affine hyperplane, $y\!\in\!\mathbb{R}^n$, $a_j\cdot y$ denotes the standard real inner product of…

Suppose $f$ is a polynomial in $n$ variables with real coefficients, exactly $n+k$ monomial terms, and Newton polytope of positive volume. Estimating the number of connected components of the positive zero set of $f$ is a fundamental…

We prove new bounds on the Betti numbers of real varieties and semi-algebraic sets that have a more refined dependence on the degrees of the polynomials defining them than results known before. Our method also unifies several different…

We consider the problem of computing sample points in each connected component of a semi-algebraic set defined by the non-vanishing or the positivity of an n-variate polynomial of degree d, with rational coefficients of bit size bounded by…

We study the conjugacy class growth function in finitely generated virtually abelian groups. That is, the number of elements in the ball of radius $n$ in the Cayley graph which intersect a fixed conjugacy class. In the class of virtually…

We consider the algebra of invariants of $d$-tuples of $n\times n$ matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation over an infinite field of characteristic $p$ different from two. It is well-known that this…

We consider arrangements of n connected codimensional one submanifolds in closed d-dimensional manifold M. Let f be the number of connected components of the complement in M to the union of submanifolds. We prove the sharp lower bound for f…

Let $\R$ be a real closed field, $\mathcal{P},\mathcal{Q} \subset \R[X_1,...,X_k]$ finite subsets of polynomials, with the degrees of the polynomials in $\mathcal{P}$ (resp. $\mathcal{Q}$) bounded by $d$ (resp. $d_0$). Let $V \subset \R^k$…

We prove that any pair of bivariate trinomials has at most 5 isolated roots in the positive quadrant. The best previous upper bounds independent of the polynomial degrees were much larger, e.g., 248832 (for just the non-degenerate roots)…

Connected components of real algebraic sets are semi-algebraic, i.e. they are described by a boolean formula whose atoms are polynomial constraints with real coefficients. Computing such descriptions finds topical applications in optical…

A standard question in real algebraic geometry is to compute the number of connected components of a real algebraic variety in affine space. By adapting an approach for determining connectivity in complements of real hypersurfaces by Hong,…

Covering numbers are a powerful tool used in the development of approximation algorithms, randomized dimension reduction methods, smoothed complexity analysis, and others. In this paper we prove upper bounds on the covering number of…

We give new positive and negative results (some conditional) on speeding up computational algebraic geometry over the reals: (1) A new and sharper upper bound on the number of connected components of a semialgebraic set. Our bound is novel…

Let $A$ be an associative algebra graded by a finite group $G$ over a field ${F}$ of characteristic zero. One associates to $A$ the sequence of $G$-graded codimensions $c_n^G(A)$, $n=1,2,\ldots$, which measures the growth of the polynomial…

Recent progress in string theory has led to a reformulation of quantum-group polynomial invariants for knots and links into new polynomial invariants whose coefficients can be understood in topological terms. We describe in detail how to…

We study the expectation of the number of components $b_0(X)$ of a random algebraic hypersurface $X$ defined by the zero set in projective space $\mathbb{R}P^n$ of a random homogeneous polynomial $f$ of degree $d$. Specifically, we consider…

Interest in Conformal Field Theories and Quantum Field Theory lead physicists to consider configuration spaces of marked points on the complex projective line, $Conf_{0,d}(\mathbb{P})$. In this paper, a real semi-algebraic stratification of…

This paper establishes several upper and lower estimates for the maximal number of the connected components of the solution sets of monotone affine vector variational inequalities. Our results give a partial solution to Question~2 in [N.D.…

We introduce a graph-theoretic condition, called $(n,m)$--branching, that ensures a combinatorial round tree with controlled branching parameters can be quasi-isometrically embedded in the Davis complex of the right-angled Coxeter group…
