Canonical forms of oriented matroids
Christopher Eur, Thomas Lam
Positive geometries are semialgebraic sets equipped with a canonical differential form whose residues mirror the boundary structure of the geometry. Every full-dimensional projecti…
Vanishing theorems for combinatorial geometries
Christopher Eur, Alex Fink, Matt Larson
We establish strong vanishing theorems for line bundles on wonderful varieties of hyperplane arrangements, and we show that the resulting positivity properties of Euler characteris…
Kapranov degrees
Joshua Brakensiek, Christopher Eur, Matt Larson +1
The moduli space of stable rational curves with marked points has two distinguished families of maps: the forgetful maps, given by forgetting some of the markings, and the Kapranov…
Simplicial generation of Chow rings of matroids
Spencer Backman, Christopher Eur, Connor Simpson
We introduce a presentation of the Chow ring of a matroid by a new set of generators, called "simplicial generators." These generators are analogous to nef divisors on projective t…
