Alternative Fee Arrangements: an Idea Whose Time Has Come?
In this new legal economy, many clients have begun to reexamine the concept of alternative fee arrangements (“AFAs”) as an alternative to the billable hour model of legal services. A survey conducted by the Association of Corporate Counsel in 2008 found that 60% of general counsel and chief legal officers believed that the best way for outside counsel to improve relations would be to offer more...
متن کاملTranslated Tori in the Characteristic Varieties of Complex Hyperplane Arrangements
Abstract. We give examples of complex hyperplane arrangements A for which the top characteristic variety, V1(A), contains positive-dimensional irreducible components that do not pass through the origin of the algebraic torus (C∗)|A|. These examples answer several questions of Libgober and Yuzvinsky. As an application, we exhibit a pair of arrangements for which the resonance varieties of the Or...
متن کاملOn Valuations, the Characteristic Polynomial, and Complex Subspace Arrangements
We present a new combinatorial method to determine the characteristic polynomial of any subspace arrangement that is defined over an infinite field, generalizing the work of Blass and Sagan. Our methods stem from the theory of valuations and Groemer's integral theorem. As a corollary of our main theorem, we obtain a result of Zaslavsky about the number of chambers of a real hyperplane arrangeme...
متن کاملCharacteristic Varieties of Arrangements
The k Fitting ideal of the Alexander invariant B of an arrangement A of n complex hyperplanes defines a characteristic subvariety, Vk(A), of the complex algebraic torus (C). In the combinatorially determined case where B decomposes as a direct sum of local Alexander invariants, we obtain a complete description of Vk(A). For any arrangement A, we show that the tangent cone at the identity of the...
متن کاملOne can hear the Euler characteristic of a simplicial complex
We prove that that the number p of positive eigenvalues of the connection Laplacian L of a finite abstract simplicial complex G matches the number b of even dimensional simplices in G and that the number n of negative eigenvalues matches the number f of odd-dimensional simplices in G. The Euler characteristic X(G) of G therefore can be spectrally described as X(G)=p-n. This is in contrast to th...
