Lorentzian Polynomials, Higher Hessians, And The Hodge-Riemann Property For Codimension Two Graded Artinian Gorenstein Algebras, Pedro Macias-Marques, Chris Mcdaniel, Alexandra Seceleanu, Junzo Watanabe

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

We study the Hodge-Riemann property (HRP) for graded Artinian Gorenstein (AG) algebras. We classify AG algebras in codimension two that have HRP in terms of higher Hessian matrices and positivity of Schur functions associated to certain rectangular partitions.

In this paper we introduce the Hodge Riemann property (HRP) on an arbitrary graded oriented Artinian Gorenstein (AG) algebra defined over R, and we give a criterion on the higher Hessian matrix of its Macaulay dual generator (Theorem 3.1). AG algebras can be regarded as algebraic analogues of cohomology rings (in even degrees) of complex manifolds, and the HRP is analogous to …

Determinants Of Incidence And Hessian Matrices Arising From The Vector Space Lattice, Saeed Nasseh, Alexandra Seceleanu, Junzo Watanabe

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

Let V = ⁿi= _o V^I bethe lattice of subspaces of the n-dimensional vector space over the finite field Fq, and let A be the graded Gorenstein algebra defined over Q which has V as a Q basis. Let F be the Macaulay dual generator for A. We explicitly compute the Hessian determinant j 2F= Xi Xj j, evaluated at the point X1 = X2 = ... = XN = 1, and relate it to the determinant of the incidence matrix between V1 and Vn-1. Our exploration is motivated by the fact that both of these matrices naturally …
