Motivated by a problem in motivic homotopy theory considered by Asok-Fasel-Hopkins, we give a description of the rational $C_2$-equivariant homotopy type of the classifying space ${BSU_{\mathbb{R}}}_m$ in terms of equivariant Eilenberg-Maclane spaces.
This paper studies, for a positive integer $m$, the subalgebra of the cohomology ring of the complex Grassmannians generated by the elements of degree at most $m$. We build in two ways upon a conjecture for the Hilbert series of this subalgebra due to Reiner and Tudose. The first reinterprets it in terms of the operation of $k$-conjugation, suggesting two conjectural bases for the subalgebras that would imply their conjecture. The second introduces an analogous conjecture for the cohomology of Lagrangian Grassmannians.
We recall that the $k$-Naples parking functions of length $n$ (a generalization of parking functions) are defined by requiring that a car which finds its preferred spot occupied must first back up a spot at a time (up to $k$ spots) before proceeding forward down the street. Note that the parking functions are the specialization of $k$ to $0$. For a fixed $0\leq k\leq n-1$, we define a function $φ_k$ which maps a $k$-Naples parking function to the permutation denoting the order in which its cars park. By enumerating the sizes of the fibers of the map $φ_k$ we give a new formula for the number of $k$-Naples parking functions as a sum over the permutations of length $n$. We remark that our formula for enumerating $k$-Naples parking functions is not recursive, in contrast to the previously known formula of Christensen et al [CHJ+20]. It can be expressed as the product of the lengths of particular subsequences of permutations, and its specialization to $k=0$ gives a new way to describe the number of parking functions of length $n$. We give a formula for the sizes of the fibers of the map $φ_0$, and we provide a recurrence relation for its corresponding logarithmic generating function. Furthermore, we relate the $q$-analog of our formula to a new statistic that we denote $\texttt{area}_k$ and call the $k$-Naples area statistic, the specialization of which to $k=0$ gives the $\texttt{area}$ statistic on parking functions.
Given two elements of a vector space acted on by a reductive group, we ask whether they lie in the same orbit, and if not, whether one lies in the orbit closure of the other. We develop techniques to optimize the orbit and orbit closure algorithms and apply these to give a partial classification of orbit closure containments in the case of cubic surfaces with infinitely many singular points, which are known to fall into 13 normal forms. We also discuss the computational obstructions to completing this classification, and discuss tools for future work in this direction.
We explore the connection between the rank of a polynomial and the singularities of its vanishing locus. We first describe the singularity of generic polynomials of fixed rank. We then focus on cubic surfaces. Cubic surfaces with isolated singularities are known to fall into 22 singularity types. We compute the rank of a cubic surface of each singularity type. This enables us to find the possible singular loci of a cubic surface of fixed rank. Finally, we study connections to the Hessian discriminant. We show that a cubic surface with singularities that are not ordinary double points lies on the Hessian discriminant, and that the Hessian discriminant is the closure of the rank six cubic surfaces.
