We study a class of bivariate deformed Hermite polynomials and some of their properties using classical analytic techniques and the Wigner map. We also prove the positivity of certain determinants formed by the deformed polynomials. Along…
This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate…
It was first pointed out by Weil that we can use classical invariant theory to compute the Jacobian of a genus one curve. The invariants required for curves of degree n = 2,3,4 were already known to the nineteenth centuary invariant…
Let F and G be homogeneous polynomials in disjoint sets of variables. We prove that the Waring rank is additive, thus proving the symmetric Strassen conjecture, when either F or G is a power, or F and G have two variables, or either F or G…
Zernike polynomials are widely used mathematical models of experimentally observed optical aberrations. Their useful mathematical properties, in particular their orthogonality, make them a ubiquitous basis set for solving various problems…
We give an elementary proof of the Pieri-type formula in the cohomology of a Grassmannian of maximal isotropic subspaces of an odd orthogonal or symplectic vector space. This proof proceeds by explicitly computing a triple intersection of…
We prove a version of the classical 'generic smoothness' theorem with smooth varieties replaced by non-commutative resolutions of singular varieties. This in particular implies a non-commutative version of the Bertini theorem.
The Joint Crossing Number problem asks for a simultaneous embedding of two disjoint graphs into one surface such that the number of edge crossings (between the two graphs) is minimized. It was introduced by Negami in 2001 in connection with…
This paper analyses a Waring type decomposition of a noncommuting (NC) polynomial $p$ with respect to the goal of evaluating $p$ efficiently on tuples of matrices. Such a decomposition can reduce the number of matrix multiplications needed…
We use a new variational method --based on the theory of anti-selfdual Lagrangians developed in [2] and [3]-- to establish the existence of solutions of convex Hamiltonian systems that connect two given Lagrangian submanifolds in $\R^{2N}$.…
Minimal surfaces are among the most natural objects in Differential Geometry, and have been studied for the past 250 years ever since the pioneering work of Lagrange. The subject is characterized by a profound beauty, but perhaps even more…
We solve the equivalence problem for the orthogonally separable webs on the three-sphere under the action of the isometry group. This continues a classical project initiated by Olevsky in which he solved the corresponding canonical forms…
The parquet formalism and Hedin's $GW\gamma$ approach are unified into a single theory of vertex corrections, corresponding to an exact reformulation of the parquet equations in terms of boson exchange. The method has no drawbacks compared…
Let $S$ be a smooth del Pezzo surface over a field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2, 3$. We define an invariant in the Grothendieck-Witt ring $GW(k)$ for "counting" rational curves in a curve class $D$ of fixed positive degree (with respect to…
As proved recently in [PT], for varieties $X^{r+1}\subset \mathbb P^N$ such that through $n\geq 2$ general points there passes an irreducible curve $C$ of degree $\delta\geq n-1$ we have $N\leq \pi(r,n,\delta+r(n-1)+2)$, where $\pi(r,n,d)$…
$\Gamma$-convergence methods are used to prove homogenization results for fractional obstacle problems in periodically perforated domains. The obstacles have random sizes and shapes and their capacity scales according to a stationary…
In this article, a posteriori error analysis of the elliptic obstacle problem is addressed using hybrid high-order methods. The method involve cell unknowns represented by degree-$r$ polynomials and face unknowns represented by degree-$s$…
By addressing a long-standing open problem, listed in a highly regarded collection of open questions in the field and described as a "worthwhile research project", this note extends Markov's theorem (Markoff, Math. Ann., 27:177-182, 1886)…
This note is based on a talk given at String-Math 2012 in Bonn, on a joint paper with Ed Segal. We exhibit derived equivalences corresponding to certain Grassmannian flops. The construction of these equivalences is inspired by work of…
The Springer variety is the set of flags stabilized by a nilpotent operator. In 1976, T.A. Springer observed that this variety's cohomology ring carries a symmetric group action, and he offered a deep geometric construction of this action.…
