In the description of the monomials various combinatorial objects come into play: building sets, nested sets, and the fan of a suitable toric variety. In particular, I will focus on the case of the toric arrangements associated with root systems of type A. Here the combinatorial description of these basis offers a geometrical point of view on the relation between some eulerian statistics on the symmetric group. This is a joint work with Oscar Papini and Viola Siconolfi.

22/11/22	Seminario	16:00	17:00	1201 Dal Passo	Massimiliano Berti	SISSA Trieste	Seminario di Equazioni Differenziali Benjamin-Feir instability of Stokes waves Abstract A classical subject in fluid mechanics regards the spectral instability of traveling periodic water waves, called Stokes waves. Benjamin, Feir, Whitam and Zhakarov predicted, through experiments and formal arguments, that Stokes waves in sufficiently deep water are unstable, finding unstable eigenvalues near the origin of the complex plane, corresponding to small Floquet exponents $mu$ or equivalently to long-wave perturbations. The first rigorous mathematical results have been given by Bridges-Mielke (’95) in finite depth and by Nguyen-Strauss (’20) in infinite depth. On the other hand, it has been found numerically that when the Floquet number $mu$ varies, two eigenvalues trace an entire figure-eight. I will present a novel approach to prove this conjecture fully describing the unstable spectrum. This is joint work with A. Maspero and P. Ventura.

11/11/22	Seminario	16:00	17:00	1201 Dal Passo	Sabino DI TRANI	Università di Trento	Algebra & Representation Theory Seminar (ARTS) "Smoothness Criteria for T-Fixed Points in Flat Linear Degenerations of the Flag Variety" Abstract Linear Degenerations of the Flag Variety arise as very natural generalizations of the Complete Flag Variety and their geometrical properties very often appear to be linked with interesting combinatorial patterns. The talk will focus on a special class of linear degenerations, the Flat Degenerations, that have the remarkable property of being equidimensional algebraic varieties of the same dimension as the Complete Flag Variety. In some very recent works of M. Lanini and A. Pütz it is proved that Linear Degenerations of the Flag Variety can be endowed with a structure of GKM variety, under the action of a suitable algebraic torus T. The aim of the talk is to show how GKM Theory can be applied in this setting to prove some new results about the smooth locus in Flat Degenerations, generalizing a smoothness criterion proved by G. Cerulli Irelli, E. Feigin and M. Reineke for Feigin Degeneration. Finally, we provide a different combinatorial criterion, linking the smoothness property of a T-fixed point to the complete graph and to its orientations.

28/10/22	Seminario	16:00	17:00	1201 Dal Passo	Salvatore STELLA	Università de L'Aquila	Algebra & Representation Theory Seminar (ARTS) "Dominance order and pointed bases for cluster algebras" Abstract Cluster algebras are a class of commutative rings endowed with a partial canonical basis whose elements are called cluster monomials. They are defined recursively through the combinatorial machinery of seeds and mutations. Cluster monomials have a particularly nice property: they are pointed, i.e. they can be written as the product of a Laurent monomial with a monic polynomial with respect to any seed. One of the main problems in the theory has been to extend the set of cluster monomials to a full basis consisting only of pointed elements. This has been achieved in a variety of generalities using approaches deriving, for example, from representation of associative algebras, Teichmüller theory, and mirror symmetry. Recently Qin introduced a dominance order on the tropical points of the associated cluster variety and showed that this order can be used to parametrize all possible pointed bases. In this talk we will explicitly describe the dominance order in rank two using a simple geometric construction. We will then connect it to certain representations of SL₃ . Time permitting we will conclude discussing how this construction generalizes to higher rank.
28/10/22	Seminario	14:30	15:30	1201 Dal Passo	Carolina VALLEJO RODRIGUEZ	Università di Firenze	Algebra & Representation Theory Seminar (ARTS) "On character conductors" N.B.: This talk is part of the activity of the MIUR Excellence Department Project MATH@TOV CUP E83C18000100006 Abstract Given a character χ of a finite group G, there is a minimal positive integer f_χ such that all the values of χ belong to the f_χ-th cyclotomic field over the rationals. This number is often referred to as the conductor of χ. I will discuss some features of irreducible character conductors and their behavior with respect to factor groups.
28/10/22	Seminario	11:30	12:30	1201 Dal Passo	Fabio Cipriani	Politecnico di Milano	Spectral triples, Dirichlet spaces, and discrete groups. Abstract We study natural conditions on extended spectral triples $(A,h,D)$ by which the quantum differentials $da$ of elements $a in A$, belong to the ideal generated by the line element $ds = D^{-1}$. We also study upper and lower bounds on the singular values of the $da$'s to form a conformally invariant energy functional. We apply the general framework to study natural spectral triples of Dirichlet spaces and in particular those on duals of discrete groups arising on negative definite functions.
25/10/22	Seminario	16:00	17:00	1201 Dal Passo	Roberto Feola	Università di Roma Tre	Seminario di Equazioni Differenziali Long time NLS approximation for a quasilinear Klein-gordon equation on large compact domains Abstract We consider a class of Klein-Gordon equations with quasilinear, Hamiltonian and quadratic nonlinearities posed on a large box with periodic boundary conditions. We discuss how the cubic NLS equation can be derived to describe, approximately, the evolution of slow modulations in time and space of a spatially and temporarily oscillating wave packet. We show that the approximation is valid over a time scale which goes beyond the natural quadratic lifespan of solutions of cubic equations. We provide error estimates in Sobolev spaces. The proof is based on a combination of normal form techniques and energy methods. Note: This talk is part of the activity of the MIUR Department of Excellence Project MATH@TOV CUP E83C18000100006
