An open problem in convex geometry asks whether two simplices $A,B\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$, both containing the origin in their convex hulls, admit a polynomial-length sequence of vertex exchanges transforming $A$ into $B$ while maintaining…

We say that a cover of surfaces S -> X has the Birman--Hilden property if the subgroup of the mapping class group of X consisting of mapping classes that have representatives that lift to S embeds in the mapping class group of S modulo the…

We considered the possibility that the oriented matroid theory is connected with supersymmetry via the Grassmann-Plucker relations. The main reason for this, is that such relations arise in both in the chirotopes definition of an oriented…

In a previous paper we introduced the notion of a D-Lie algebra $\tilde{L}$. A D-Lie algebra $\tilde{L}$ is an $A/k$-Lie-Rinehart algebra with a right $A$-module structure and a canonical central element $D$ satisfying several conditions.…

We give an affirmative answer to a long-standing conjecture of Thomassen, stating that every sufficiently highly connected graph has a $k$-vertex-connected orientation. We prove that a connectivity of order $O(k^2)$ suffices. As a key tool,…

B\'ar\'any, Kalai, and Meshulam recently obtained a topological Tverberg-type theorem for matroids, which guarantees multiple coincidences for continuous maps from a matroid complex to d-dimensional Euclidean space, if the matroid has…

Wei's celebrated Duality Theorem is generalized in several ways, expressed as duality theorems for linear codes over division rings and, more generally, duality theorems for matroids. These results are further generalized, resulting in two…

We initiate a systematic study of non-planar on-shell diagrams in N=4 SYM and develop powerful technology for doing so. We introduce canonical variables generalizing face variables, which make the dlog form of the on-shell form explicit. We…

Let $(M, q)$ be a quadratic projective module of an odd rank over an commutative ring, where the form $q$ is semiregular, with global Witt index of at least $2$, and with $\mathrm{rk}(M) \ge 7$. We prove standard commutator formulae and…

Klaus showed that the Oriented Matroid Complementarity Problem (OMCP) can be solved by a reduction to the problem of sink-finding in a unique sink orientation (USO) if the input is promised to be given by a non-degenerate extension of a…

We consider families of simple polytopes $P$ and simplicial complexes $K$ well-known in polytope theory and convex geometry, and show that their moment-angle complexes have some remarkable homotopy properties which depend on combinatorics…

We study the combinatorics of modular flats of oriented matroids and the topological consequences for their Salvetti complexes. We show that the natural map to the localized Salvetti complex at a modular flat of corank one is what we call a…

We first summarize the basic structure of the outer distribution module of a completely regular code. Then, employing a simple lemma concerning eigenvectors in association schemes, we propose to study the tightest case, where the indices of…

Let $k$ be a commutative ring, $A$ a commutative $k$-algebra and $D$ the filtered ring of $k$-linear differential operators of $A$. We prove that: (1) The graded ring $\gr D$ admits a canonical embedding $\theta$ into the graded dual of the…

We introduce in this paper the marked chain-order polytopes associated to a marked poset, generalizing the marked chain polytopes and marked order polytopes by putting them as extremal cases in an Ehrhart equivalent family. Some…

We consider the (graded) Matlis dual $\DD(M)$ of a graded $\D$-module $M$ over the polynomial ring $R = k[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ ($k$ is a field of characteristic zero), and show that it can be given a structure of $\D$-module in such a way…

Given a subgroup $\mathcal{H}$ of a product of finite groups $\mathcal{G} = \displaystyle\prod^n_{i=1} \Gamma_i$ and $b>1,$ we define a polymatroid $P(\mathcal{H},b).$ If all of the $\Gamma_i$ are isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z},$ $p$…

Let $D$ be a strong digraph on $n\geq 4$ vertices. In [3, Discrete Applied Math., 95 (1999) 77-87)], J. Bang-Jensen, Y. Guo and A. Yeo proved the following theorem: if (*) $d(x)+d(y)\geq 2n-1$ and $min \{d^+(x)+ d^-(y),d^-(x)+ d^+(y)\}\geq…

In this survey-research paper, we first introduce the theory of Smith classes of complexes with fixed-point free, periodic maps on them. These classes, when defined for the deleted product of a simplicial complex $K$, are the same as the…

The components of K*-vectors associated to a simple oriented matroid M are the numbers of general or special tope committees for M. Using the principle of inclusion-exclusion, we determine how the reorientations of M on one-element subsets…
