Abstract: Motivated by Hodge theory and volume polynomials, we introduce Lorentzian polynomials on cones. Using these we give a short and self-contained proof of the Heron-Rota-Welsh conjecture for the characteristic polynomial of a geometric lattice, first proved by Adiprasito, Huh and Katz. This is joint work with Jonathan Leake (Waterloo).
