We give a combinatorial proof of the skew Kostka analogue of the K-saturation theorem. More precisely, for any positive integer k, we give an explicit injection from the set of skew semistandard Young tableaux with skew shape…
In \cite[Proposition 8.21 Page-169]{F} Using the methods of topological dynamics, H. Furstenberg introduced the notion of central set and proved the famous Central Sets Theorem. Later, in \cite{DHS}, D. De, H. Hindman and D. Struss…
We prove that a multiplicative subgroup $A_k$ of $\mathbb{Z}_p^*$ is a generalized arithmetic progression if and only if $|A_k| = 2,\ 4,$ or $p-1$. Much of the argument is built upon recent work studying additive decompositions of subgroups…
We prove an explicit combinatorial formula for the structure constants of the Grothendieck ring of a Grassmann variety with respect to its basis of Schubert structure sheaves. We furthermore relate K-theory of Grassmannians to a bialgebra…
Schubert polynomials are a basis for the polynomial ring that represent Schubert classes for the flag manifold. In this paper, we introduce and develop several new combinatorial models for Schubert polynomials that relate them to other…
During the last decade, self-affine geometrical properties of many growing aggregates, originated in a wide variety of processes, have been well characterized. However, little progress has been achieved in the search of a unified…
In the present paper, we adopt a pretentious approach and prove a strongly uniform estimate for the sums of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$ on arithmetic progressions. This estimate is analogous to an estimate that Linnik established in…
In arXiv:0805.0157v5, the authors define a class of derived stacks, called "perfect stacks" and show that for this class the categories of quasi-coherent sheaves satisfy a categorical K\"unneth formula. Motivated to extend their results to…
Given a subset of the integers of zero density, we define the weaker notion of fractional density of such a set. It is shown how this notion corresponds to that of the Hausdorff dimension of a compact subset of the reals. We then show that…
We give a purely combinatorial proof of the positivity of the stabilized forms of the generalized exponents associated to each classical root system. In finite type A_{n-1}, we rederive the description of the generalized exponents in terms…
We consider finite range Gibbs fields and provide a purely combinatorial proof of the exponential tree decay of semi--invariants, supposing that the logarithm of the partition function can be expressed as a sum of suitable local functions…
Every positive integer greater than a positive integer $r$ can be written as an integer that is the sum of powers of $r$. Here we use this to prove the conjecture posed by Ronald Graham, B. Rothschild and Joel Spencer back in the nineteen…
Continued fraction expansions provide a well-established bridge between algebraic properties of numbers and combinatorics on words. In this article, we investigate the algebraicity of $p$-adic numbers whose continued fractions arise from…
We construct an upgrade of the motivic volume by keeping track of dimensions in the Grothendieck ring of varieties. This produces a uniform refinement of the motivic volume and its birational version introduced by Kontsevich and Tschinkel…
Van der Waerden's classical theorem on arithmetic progressions states that for any positive integers k and r, there exists a least positive integer, w(k,r), such that any r-coloring of {1,2,...,w(k,r)} must contain a monochromatic k-term…
We formulate a conjecture classifying algebraic solutions to (possibly non-linear) algebraic differential equations, in terms of the primes appearing in the denominators of the coefficients of their Taylor expansion at a non-singular point.…
We compute the generating function of column-strict plane partitions with parts in {1,2,...,n}, at most c columns, p rows of odd length and k parts equal to n. This refines both, Krattenthaler's ["The major counting of nonintersecting…
Ehrenborg, Govindaiah, Park, and Readdy recently introduced the van der Waerden complex, a pure simplicial complex whose facets correspond to arithmetic progressions. Using techniques from combinatorial commutative algebra, we classify when…
The study of many problems in additive combinatorics, such as Szemer\'edi's theorem on arithmetic progressions, is made easier by first studying models for the problem in F_p^n for some fixed small prime p. We give a number of examples of…
Using the method of forcing we prove that consistently there is a Banach space of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space with the Grothendieck property and with density less than the continuum. It follows that the classical…
