Chow stability is one notion of Mumford's Geometric Invariant Theory for studying the moduli space of polarized varieties. Kapranov, Sturmfels and Zelevinsky detected that Chow stability of polarized toric varieties is determined by its inherent {\it secondary polytope}, which is a polytope whose vertices correspond to…

A famous construction of Gelfand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky associates to each finite point configuration ARdA \subset \mathbb{R}^d a polyhedral fan, which stratifies the space of weight vectors by the combinatorial types of regular subdivisions of AA. That fan arises as the normal fan of a convex polytope. In a complete…

We explore several families of flip-graphs, all related to polygons or punctured polygons. In particular, we consider the topological flip-graphs of once-punctured polygons which, in turn, contain all possible geometric flip-graphs of polygons with a marked point as embedded sub-graphs. Our main focus is on the geometr…

The knot invariant Upsilon, defined by Ozsvath, Stipsicz, and Szabo, induces a homomorphism from the smooth knot concordance group to the group of piecewise linear functions on the interval [0,2]. Here we define a set of related secondary invariants, each of which assigns to a knot a piecewise linear function on [0,2].…

We introduce two invariants called the secondary cuspidal curvature and the bias on 5/25/2-cuspidal edges, and investigate their basic properties. While the secondary cuspidal curvature is an analog of the cuspidal curvature of (ordinary) cuspidal edges, there are no invariants corresponding to the bias. We prove that t…

In this study, we generalize double tangent bundles to double jet bundles. We present a secondary vector bundle structure on a 1-jet of a vector bundle. We show that 1-jet of a vector bundle carries two vector bundle structures, namely primary and secondary structures. We also show that the manifold charts induced by p…

Given a lattice L of R^n, a polytope D is called a Delaunay polytope in L if the set of its vertices is S\cap L where S is a sphere having no lattice points in its interior. D is called perfect if the only ellipsoid in R^n that contains S\cap L is exactly S. For a vector v of the Leech lattice Λ_{24} we define Λ_{24}(v…
