Let u be a word over the positive integers. Motivated in part by a question from representation theory, we study the centralizer set of u which is C(u) = {w | uw is Knuth-equivalent to wu}. In particular, we give various necessary…
In this paper we compute the asymptotic behavior of the recurrence coefficients for polynomials orthogonal with respect to a logarithmic weight $w(x){\rm d}x = \log \frac{2k}{1-x}{\rm d}x$ on $(-1,1)$, $k > 1$, and verify a conjecture of…
Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{Z}$ that is not a Dirac mass and that has finite support. We prove that if the coefficients of a monic polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of degree $n$ are chosen independently at random…
Fink, M\'esz\'aros and St.Dizier showed that the Schubert polynomial $\mathfrak{S}_w(x)$ is zero-one if and only if $w$ avoids twelve permutation patterns. In this paper, we prove that the Grothendieck polynomial $\mathfrak{G}_w(x)$ is…
Let $X$ be a generic determinantal affine variety over a perfect field of characteristic $p \geq 0$ and $P \subset X$ be a standard prime divisor generator of $\mathrm{Cl}(X) \cong \mathbb{Z}$. We prove that the pair $(X,P)$ is purely…
We prove that the leading and penultimate leading coefficients in $u_3$ of the ``error" terms of NRS(2) applied to a cubic polynomial $f(z) =\sum_{i=0}^3 a_i z^i=\prod_{i=1}^3 (1-u_iz)$ with starting point $(-\frac{a_1}{a_2},…
We are interested in the uniqueness of solutions to Maxwell's equations when the magnetic permeability $\mu$ and the permittivity $\varepsilon$ are symmetric positive definite matrix-valued functions in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. We show that a…
We show that every element of PSL(2,q) is a commutator of elements of coprime orders. This is proved by showing first that in PSL(2,q) any two involutions are conjugate by an element of odd order.
The paper is devoted to the generalization of Lusztig's q-analog of weight multiplicities to the Lie superalgebras gl(n,m) and spo(2n,M). We define such q-analogs K_{lambda,mu}(q) for the typical modules and for the irreducible covariant…
In well-known work, Kazhdan and Lusztig (1979) defined a new set of Hecke algebra basis elements (actually two such sets) associated to elements in any Coxeter group. Often these basis elements are computed by a standard recursive algorithm…
A correction factor naturally arises in the theory of p-adic Kac--Moody groups. In this paper, we expand the correction factor into a sum of irreducible characters of the underlying Kac--Moody algebra. We derive a formula for the…
Let K,S,D be a division ring, an endomorphism and a S-derivation of K, respectively. In this setting we introduce generalized noncommutative symmetric functions and obtain Vieta formula and decompositions of differential operators.…
The $(P, w)$-partition generating function $K_{(P,w)}(x)$ is a quasisymmetric function obtained from a labeled poset. Recently, Liu and Weselcouch gave a formula for the coefficients of $K_{(P,w)}(x)$ when expanded in the quasisymmetric…
In this paper, we decompose the set of fully commutative elements into natural subsets when the Coxeter group is of type $D_n$, and study the combinatorics of these subsets, revealing hidden structures. (We do not consider type $A_n$ first,…
Let $W$ be a finite Coxeter group with Coxeter generating set $S=\{s_1,\ldots,s_n\}$, and $\rho$ be a complex finite dimensional representation of $W$. The characteristic polynomial of $\rho$ is defined as \begin{equation*}…
In this work, we investigate a novel approach to the Combinatorial Invariance Conjecture of Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomials for the symmetric group. Using the new concept of flipclasses, we introduce some combinatorial invariants of intervals…
A Newman polynomial has all the coefficients in $\{ 0,1\}$ and constant term 1, whereas a Littlewood polynomial has all coefficients in $\{-1,1\}$. We call $P(X)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ a Borwein polynomial if all its coefficients belong to $\{…
Fix a Dynkin diagram and let p be a coweight. When does there exist an element w of the corresponding Weyl group such that w is p-minuscule and w(p) is dominant? We answer this question for general Coxeter groups. We express and prove these…
It is shown that if $G$ is an uncountable Polish group and $A\subseteq G$ is a universally measurable set such that $A^{-1}A$ is meager, then the set $T_l(A)=\{\mu\in P(G): \mu(gA)=0 \text{for all} g\in G\}$ is co-meager. In particular, if…
