In a recent work, the combinatorial interpretation of the polynomial alpha(n;k1,k2,...,kn) counting the number of Monotone Triangles with bottom row k1 < k2 < ... < kn was extended to weakly decreasing sequences k1 >= k2 >= ... >= kn. In…
We compute an analogue of Pascal's triangle enriched in bilinear forms over a finite field. This gives an arithmetically meaningful count of the ways to choose $j$ ring homomorphisms into an algebraic closure from an \'etale extension of…
The reciprocal Pascal matrix has entries $\binom{i+j}{j}^{-1}$. Explicit formullae for its LU-decomposition, the LU-decomposition of its inverse, and some related matrices are obtained. For all results, $q$-analogues are also presented.
For products $P_N$ of $N$ random matrices of size $d \times d$, there is a natural notion of finite $N$ Lyapunov exponents $\{\mu_i\}_{i=1}^d$. In the case of standard Gaussian random matrices with real, complex or real quaternion elements,…
Given an odd integer polynomial f(x) of a degree k >=3, we construct a non-negative valued, normed trigonometric polynomial with the spectrum in the set of integer values of f(x) not greater than n, and a small free coefficient…
Motivated by problems arising in random sampling of trigonometric polynomials, we derive exponential inequalities for the operator norm of the difference between the sample second moment matrix $n^{-1}U^*U$ and its expectation where $U$ is…
The Motzkin numbers $M_n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom n{2k}\binom{2k}k/(k+1)$ $(n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ and the central trinomial coefficients $T_n$ ($n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ given by the constant term of $(1+x+x^{-1})^n$, have many combinatorial interpretations.…
It is known that, for any positive non-square integer multiplier $k$, there is an infinity of multiples of triangular numbers which are triangular numbers. We analyze the congruence properties of the indices $\xi$ of triangular numbers that…
The Riemann Hypothesis is the main open problem of Number Theory and several scientists are trying to solve this problem. In this regard, in a recent work [8], a difference equation has been proposed that calculates the nth non-trivial zero…
We consider Tuenter polynomials as linear combinations of descending factorials and show that coefficients of these linear combinations are expressed via a Catalan triangle of numbers. We also describe a triangle of coefficients in terms of…
Given a combinatorial triangulation of an $n$-gon, we study (a) the space of all possible drawings in the plane such the edges are straight line segments and the boundary has a fixed shape, and (b) the algebraic variety of possibilities for…
We present the explicit inverse of a class of symmetric tridiagonal matrices which is almost Toeplitz, except that the first and last diagonal elements are different from the rest. This class of tridiagonal matrices are of special interest…
We define tensors, corresponding to cubic polynomials, which have the same exponent $\omega$ as the matrix multiplication tensor. In particular, we study the symmetrized matrix multiplication tensor $sM_n$ defined on an $n\times n$ matrix…
Let $G_n= \prod_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k},$ the product of the elements of the $n$-th row of Pascal's triangle. This paper studies the partial factorizations of $G_n$ given by the product $G(n,x)$ of all prime factors $p$ of $G_n$ having $p \le…
A new generalization of Pascal's triangle, the so-called hyperbolic Pascal triangles were introduced in [H.B, L.N, L.Sz: Hyperbolic Pascal triangles]. The mathematical background goes back to the regular mosaics in the hyperbolic plane. The…
In this paper, we consider several combinatorial problems whose enumeration leads to the odd-indexed Fibonacci numbers, including certain types of Dyck paths, block fountains, directed column-convex polyominoes, and set partitions with no…
We analyze the sequence of polynomials defined by the differential-difference equation $P_{n+1}(x)=P_{n}^{\prime}(x)+x(n+1)P_{n}(x)$ asymptotically as $n\to\infty$. The polynomials $P_{n}(x)$ arise in the computation of higher derivatives…
Pascal routines are provided that generate representations of the group $SU(3)$ and tabulate the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients in the products of representations.
We consider the algebra of invariants of $d$-tuples of $n\times n$ matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation over an infinite field of characteristic $p$ different from two. It is well-known that this…
We locate the Malgrange non-regular values of a given polynomial function $f:\bC^n \to \bC$ by using a series of affine polar curves. We moreover show that all non-trivial Malgrange non-regular values of $f$ are indicated by a single…
