Discretized configurations and partial partitions
Aaron Abrams, David Gay, Valerie Hower
We show that the discretized configuration space of points in the -simplex is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres of dimension . This space is homeomorphic to t…
Shape-based peak identification for ChIP-Seq
Valerie Hower, Steven N. Evans, Lior Pachter
We present a new algorithm for the identification of bound regions from ChIP-seq experiments. Our method for identifying statistically significant peaks from read coverage is inspi…
Coverage statistics for sequence census methods
Steven N. Evans, Valerie Hower, Lior Pachter
Background: We study the statistical properties of fragment coverage in genome sequencing experiments. In an extension of the classic Lander-Waterman model, we consider the effect…
Parametric analysis of RNA folding
Valerie Hower, Christine E. Heitsch
We extend recent methods for parametric sequence alignment to the parameter space for scoring RNA folds. This involves the construction of an RNA polytope. A vertex of this polytop…
Hodge Spaces for Real Toric Varieties
Valerie Hower
We define the Z/2Z Hodge spaces H_{pq}(Σ) of a fan Σ. If Σis the normal fan of a reflexive polytope Δthen we use polyhedral duality to compute the Z/2Z Hodge Spaces of Σ. In partic…
A counterexample to the maximality of toric varieties
Valerie Hower
We present a counterexample to the conjecture of Bihan, Franz, McCrory, and van Hamel concerning the maximality of toric varieties. There exists a six dimensional projective toric…
