Many important transport phenomena are described by simple mathematical models rooted in the diffusion equation. Geometrical constraints present in such phenomena often have influence of a universal sort and manifest themselves in scaling…
We review some recent results on random polynomials and their generalizations in complex and symplectic geometry. The main theme is the universality of statistics of zeros and critical points of (generalized) polynomials of degree $N$ on…
The known bijections on Dyck paths are either involutions or have notoriously intractable cycle structure. Here we present a size-preserving bijection on Dyck paths whose cycle structure is amenable to complete analysis. In particular, each…
We analyze some enumerative and asymptotic properties of Dyck paths under a line of slope 2/5.This answers to Knuth's problem \\#4 from his "Flajolet lecture" during the conference "Analysis of Algorithms" (AofA'2014) in Paris in June…
A variation of Dyck paths allows for down-steps of arbitrary length, not just one. Credits for this invention are given to Emeric Deutsch. Surprisingly, the enumeration of them is somewhat akin to the analysis of Motzkin-paths; the last…
We provide new interpretations for a subset of Raney numbers, involving threshold sequences and Motzkin-like paths with long up and down steps. Given three integers n, k, l such that n >= 1, k >= 2 and 0 <= l <= k-2, a (k,l)-threshold…
It is a longstanding open problem to find a bijection exchanging area and bounce statistics on Dyck paths. We settle this problem for an exponentially large subset of Dyck paths via an explicit bijection. Moreover, we prove that this…
We find a bijection between bi-banded paths and peak-counting paths, applying to two classes of lattice paths including Dyck paths. Thus we find a new interpretation of Narayana numbers as coefficients of weight polynomials enumerating…
We investigate the quotient ring $R$ of the ring of formal power series $\Q[[x_1,x_2,...]]$ over the closure of the ideal generated by non-constant quasi-\break symmetric functions. We show that a Hilbert basis of the quotient is naturally…
We study four bijections, which are promotion, evacuation, rowmotion, and rowvacuation, on generalized Dyck paths in rational Catalan combinatorics. We define the maps on generalized Dyck paths, which have their origins in maps on Dyck…
For $\ell \geq 1$ and $k \geq 2$, we consider certain admissible sequences of $k-1$ lattice paths in a colored $\ell \times \ell$ square. We show that the number of such admissible sequences of lattice paths is given by the sum of squares…
We study a new class of palindromic descent polynomials. Given a Dyck path $d$ of semilength $n$ and a permutation $\sigma$ of size $n$, one can label the up-steps and down-steps of $d$ with the elements of $\sigma$. The labeled Dyck path…
We show the power of Bruno Buchberger's seminal Groebner Basis algorithm, interfaced, seamlessly, with what we call symbolic dynamical programming, to automatically generate algebraic equations satisfied by the generating functions…
It is well-known that the length generating function E(t) of Dyck paths (excursions with steps +1 and -1) satisfies 1-E+t^2E^2=0. The generating function E^(k)(t) of Dyck paths of height at most k is E^(k)=F_k/F_{k+1}, where the F_k are…
The notion of symmetric and asymmetric peaks in Dyck paths was introduced by Fl\'orez and Rodr\'{\i}guez, who counted the total number of such peaks over all Dyck paths of a given length. In this paper we generalize their results by giving…
Let $\C_n$ be the set of Dyck paths of length $n$. In this paper, by a new automorphism of ordered trees, we prove that the statistic `number of exterior pairs', introduced by A. Denise and R. Simion, on the set $\C_n$ is equidistributed…
We perform a thorough analysis of the relationship between discrete and series representation path integral methods, which are the main numerical techniques used in connection with the Feynman-Kac formula. First, a new interpretation of the…
Generalized Pl\"ucker numbers are defined to count certain types of tangent lines of generic degree $d$ complex projective hypersurfaces. They can be computed by identifying them as coefficients of GL(2)-equivariant cohomology classes of…
We count the number of linear intervals in the Tamari and the Dyck lattices according to their height, using generating series and Lagrange inversion. Surprisingly, these numbers are the same in both lattices. We define a new family of…
We discuss the symmetric homogeneous polynomial solutions of the generalized Laplace's equation which arises in the context of the Calogero-Sutherland model on a line. The solutions are expressed as linear combinations of Jack polynomials…
