Higher Convexity of Coamoeba Complements
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that the complement of the closure of the coamoeba of a variety of codimension k+1 is k-convex, in the sense of Gromov and Henriques. This generalizes a result of Nisse for hypersurface coamoebas. We use this to show that the complement of the nonarchimedean coamoeba of a variety of codimension k+1 is k-convex.

Higher Convexity for Complements of Tropical Varieties
We consider Henriques’ homological higher convexity for complements of tropical varieties, establishing it for complements of tropical hypersurfaces and curves, and for nonarchimedean amoebas of varieties that are complete intersections over the field of complex Puiseaux series. We conjecture that the complement of a tropical variety has this higher convexity, and prove a weak form of our conje...
متن کاملConvexity and Complementarity in Network Formation: Implications for the Structure of Pairwise Stable Networks
This paper studies the properties of convexity (concavity) and strategic complements (substitutes) in network formation and the implications for the structure of pairwise stable networks. First, different definitions of convexity (concavity) in own links from the literature are put into the context of diminishing marginal utility of own links. Second, it is shown that there always exists a pair...
متن کاملSubstitutes and complements in network flows viewed as discrete convexity
A new light is shed on “substitutes and complements” in the maximum weight circulation problem with reference to the concepts of L-convexity and M-convexity in the theory of discrete convex analysis. This provides us with a deeper understanding of the relationship between convexity and submodularity in combinatorial optimization.
متن کاملThe Phase Limit Set of a Variety
A coamoeba is the image of a subvariety of a complex torus under the argument map to the real torus. We describe the structure of the boundary of the coamoeba of a variety, which we relate to its logarithmic limit set. Detailed examples of lines in three-dimensional space illustrate and motivate these results.
متن کاملConvexity and Geodesic Metric Spaces
In this paper, we first present a preliminary study on metric segments and geodesics in metric spaces. Then we recall the concept of d-convexity of sets and functions in the sense of Menger and study some properties of d-convex sets and d-convex functions as well as extreme points and faces of d-convex sets in normed spaces. Finally we study the continuity of d-convex functions in geodesic metr...
